Attorney General and FBI Release Epstein Files

February 28, 2025

Washington, D.C. – Attorney General Pamela Bondi, with support from the FBI, has declassified and released files associated with Jeffrey Epstein, who was convicted as a sex offender. These documents pertain to his exploitation of over 250 underage girls in his homes located in New York, Florida, and other places.

Attorney General Bondi stated that the release aligns with former President Trump’s commitment to transparency. This first phase includes files that have been leaked previously but never formally released by the U.S. Government.

FBI Director Kash Patel expressed the Bureau’s commitment to integrity and accountability in a new era. He emphasized that efforts will be made to uncover and disclose any hidden or missing documents related to Epstein, to be assessed and shared with the public.

Attorney General Bondi requested comprehensive files on Epstein, receiving only 200 pages initially. It was later revealed that thousands more pages are involved. The FBI has been tasked to provide the remaining documents by 8:00 AM on February 28. The Department plans to release the remaining files after review to protect victims’ identities.
