Epstein victims’ advocates express outrage over slow release of files

Deadline mandated by Epstein Files Transparency Act long past, but millions of documents have still not been released

One month after the justice department’s congressionally mandated deadline to release all Jeffrey Epstein investigative files went unmet, victims’ advocates are expressing outrage over the department’s failure to comply with federal law.

Advocates have also indicated that they are not surprised, describing the justice department’s noncompliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act as yet another example of US officials failing to hold wrongdoers accountable in the ongoing saga.
