AG Bondi Reviewing Epstein Docs for Release
THE NEWS
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed during Fox News interview, that she is reviewing Jeffrey Epstein-related documents, including his client list.
"It's sitting on my desk right now to review," she said. "That's been a directive by President [Donald] Trump."
TIMELINE
2005–2008: Epstein Investigation & Controversial Plea Deal
- Jeffrey Epstein is investigated by the Palm Beach Police Department for sexual abuse of minors in 2005. Despite evidence of trafficking girls as young as 14, federal prosecutors negotiate a controversial plea deal in 2008.
- Epstein pleads guilty to state charges, avoids federal prosecution, serves 13 months in a county jail with work release, and registers as a sex offender.
July 6, 2019: Epstein Arrested on Federal Charges
- Epstein is arrested at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey on federal sex trafficking charges. Prosecutors allege he exploited dozens of minors at his Manhattan and Palm Beach residences between 2002 and 2005. The arrest reignites scrutiny of his connections to politicians, billionaires, and celebrities.
August 10, 2019: Epstein Dies in Jail
- Epstein is found unresponsive in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City. His death is ruled a suicide by hanging, but irregularities in jail surveillance footage and lax guard oversight fuel conspiracy theories.
December 18, 2023: Judge Orders Epstein Document Release
- U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska orders the unsealing of approximately 900 pages of court records from a defamation lawsuit involving Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell. The documents include deposition transcripts and emails, naming associates like Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and other influential people.
January 1–5, 2024: Five Tranches of Documents Released
- Over 900 pages are released in five batches, revealing:
- Epstein’s manipulation of victims through financial incentives.
- Flight logs showing visits by prominent figures to Epstein’s private island.
- No criminal allegations against named individuals.
September 4, 2024: Trump Pledges to Release Epstein’s “Client List”
- Trump told podcaster Lex Fridman he would release Jeffrey Epstein's "client list" if reelected.
February 2025: Trump Gives "Strong directive"
- President Donald Trump "has given a very strong directive, and that's going to be followed," Bondi told conservative commentator Benny Johnson when asked about the release of the list in an interview that he posted on X, formerly Twitter.
February 11, 2025: Declassification Task Force Launched
- House Committee on Oversight and Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) announced the establishment of a task force titled the “Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets.” The task force’s mission is to examine the declassification of materials in the public interest and will be led by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.).
February 20, 2025: Bondi Confirms Active Review
- “It’s sitting on my desk right now to review,” Bondi told Fox News’ John Roberts of evidence against the late billionaire sex offender. “That’s been a directive by President Trump.”
REACTIONS
Bondi said during an interview with Fox News in November that anyone named in documents related to Epstein who is "still fighting to keep their names private, Sean, they have no legal basis to do so unless they're a child, a victim or a cooperating defendant."
Kash Patel said in an interview in November that the way to restore trust in the government is "by giving the American people the truth. And that's what they feared about Donald Trump. He's going to come in there and might just give them the Epstein list, the 'Diddy list,' and everything else they're terrified of being exposed."
Trump said on a podcast in September that he had never visited Epstein's private island, where prosecutors said Epstein's alleged abuse of underage girls took place.
Asked why the names of those who did visit the island was not public, Trump said it was "very interesting" and that he would "certainly take a look at" releasing it.
WHAT NEXT
Bondi plans to release findings “as soon as possible,” but no deadline is set.
