The US Department of Justice released a collection of confidential documents of Jeffrey Epstein

According to RCO News Agency, on Friday, the US Department of Justice published its documents regarding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who was once close to US President Donald Trump and has always attracted a lot of attention due to his connections with prominent people in the United States and even the world.

Although significant portions of the documents have been censored, the parts that were visible included images of Epstein hanging out with an array of high-profile figures, including artists such as Michael Jackson, Chris Tucker, and Diana Ross, as well as well-known entrepreneur Richard Branson.

Former US President Bill Clinton is among those seen in several photos, including one in a swimming pool with Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. The pictures also show Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, a former member of the British royal family.

In another part of the documents, photos of the collected evidence were seen, including drives and computers, whose contents were not disclosed. There was also a photo of what appeared to be a dog in a garbage bag placed inside a box.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a letter to Congress that the documents, which date back to 2006, when Epstein was under investigation for child sexual abuse, are only the first set of documents to be released. “The volume of material to be reviewed means that the department must provide relevant documents on an ongoing and public basis,” he wrote in a letter obtained by Fox News.

He also acknowledged a series of omissions, including identifying details of more than 1,200 victims and their family members.

Congressional Democrats have accused the Trump administration of failing to comply with the Epstein Transparency Act. The law required the Justice Department to release all “unclassified records, documents, communications and investigative materials” related to the tycoon’s cases by Dec. 19. Epstein died suspiciously in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on child sex trafficking charges in federal court.

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee also previously released more than 20,000 documents they received from Epstein’s estate, including emails between Epstein and prominent figures. The documents included dozens of photos from Epstein’s estate that highlight her relationships with high-profile figures, including Trump, Clinton and Mountbatten-Windsor.

White House spokeswoman Carolyn Leavitt denied the emails and accused Democrats of “optionally” revealing them “to create a false narrative to discredit President Trump.”
