DOJ Asks Judge to Unseal Epstein Grand Jury Transcripts

(Bloomberg) – The Trump administration asked a federal court to realize the major jury transcripts about the infamous financier Jeffrey Epstein after a criticism of government officials hidden documents and information.

The lawyers of the Ministry of Justice filed a request to a federal court in Manhattan on Friday.

“Transparency to the American people is of great importance for this administration,” the Ministry of Justice said in the investigations of Epstein, “given the public interest” transcripts should be released, he added.

The government said there was no additional information to be published after publishing a two -page note in early July. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a FOX News interview earlier this year that an Epstein customer list was sitting on his desk for review. He then announced this comment and said that he generally referred to Epstein files.

Returning from the front, he fueled President Donald Trump and a fire storm that swallowed many of his best assistants.

On Thursday, Trump allowed Wall Street Journal to ask for the release of the big jury statement from Epstein prosecution after releasing a story that once argued that he had once sent an obscene birthday letter to Epstein. The President said that the letter was “fake ve in a social media mission and threatened to file a lawsuit.

Dow Jones & Co., News Corp. and Rupert Murdoch filed a lawsuit. Dow Jones did not respond immediately to the request for comment. The filing details were not present in the online court records immediately.

Epstein was found guilty of Florida accusations, including the supply of minors to enter prostitution in 2008. In 2019, he died in a Manhattan prison and was tried on charges of federal sex smuggling, including non -disregarded girls. An investigation by both a medical examination and the FBI determined that Epstein died in suicide.

At the beginning of this month, the Note and FBI, published by the Ministry of Justice, admitted that Epstein died in federal detention with suicide and that there was no evidence that researchers had a “customer list” or blackmail operation containing leading individuals. The document said that the surveillance images were locked in Epstein’s cell and that unauthorized access to the housing unit did not occur during death.
