Washington, D.C. — The Justice Department says it is reviewing documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein after concerns that certain materials may have been improperly withheld from public release.
The review follows questions raised by Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, who claims FBI interview records connected to one of Epstein’s alleged victims were missing from files released last month. According to reporting cited by NPR, the FBI interviewed the unnamed woman four times before the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. Only the first interview appears in the public database.
In a statement posted to X, the DOJ said it is “currently reviewing” files flagged by the public and media outlets. If any documents were improperly tagged and fall under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, they will be published “consistent with the law.” The department did not provide a timeline for completion.
Garcia alleges the DOJ “illegally” withheld interviews and has called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all related records. President Donald Trump has repeatedly denied allegations of misconduct involving Epstein.
High-profile figures, including former President Bill Clinton and others, have also faced scrutiny following the document releases.
