Epstein Grand Jury Transcripts To Be Released

Federal Judge Approves Release of Epstein Grand Jury Transcripts A federal judge has approved the Justice Departments request to release grand jury transcripts from the investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. This decision comes after Congress passed a new law specifically calling for these records to be made public. The transcripts are from federal investigations in Florida that took place in 2005 and 2007. The move follows previous attempts by the Trump administration to unseal these materials, which were initially denied by judges in both Florida and New York. However, the new law, known as the Epstein Files Transparency Act, changed the legal landscape. The Justice Department had previously stated that a review of Epsteins materials, conducted with the FBI, found no client list or evidence that he blackmailed prominent figures. They also reported no evidence that would lead to investigations against uncharged third parties.
