"the Justice Department has unblocked the release of a new batch of documents and photographs from the archive of Jeffrey Epstein, the millionaire financier accused of sex trafficking who died in prison in August 2019 while awaiting trial. Today, we are producing more than three million pages, including more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images in total, that means that the department produced approximately three and a half million pages in compliance with the act, Blanche said at a press conference."
"Congress had set a deadline of December 19, 2025, to release all the documents that the financier, accused of pedophilia among other crimes, had accumulated over the years. The Department of Justice admits that some documents have been deleted or redacted so as not to make them public. Some pornographic images, commercial or otherwise, were censored, as the Department treated all the women appearing in them as victims. No prominent figures or politicians were censored in the disclosure of any files."
"the Department of Justice said: Through the process, the Department provided clear instructions to reviewers that the redactions were to be limited to the protection of victims and their families. The deputy attorney general explained that images of all the women appearing in the files have been excluded to protect their privacy, except for those of Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein'"
