Epstein Survivors, Senate Dems Demand Audit of Tampered Files
Ahead of the release of Jeffrey Epstein’s case files, survivors and Democratic members of Congress are requesting an independent review to ensure the records haven’t been tampered with or concealed. They are specifically requesting the Justice Department’s inspector general conduct a formal review of the files’ “chain of custody” due to concerns that records may have been altered or removed. The impending release of these files by a December 19 deadline, stemming from the Epstein Files Transparency Act, follows pressure from both parties for greater transparency. The investigation of the records is set to address concerns regarding how many individuals have had custody over the materials ahead of the release and their handling.
