Demand the Release of the Epstein Case Files

In 2019, after years of evading the law, Jeffrey Epstein was convicted on federal child sex trafficking charges. Epstein was a wealthy financier with close ties to powerful people, including Donald Trump. Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell systematically groomed young girls to be raped and trafficked to their wealthy friends. Epstein died in his jail cell while awaiting sentencing. While the medical examiner concluded his death was a suicide, conspiracies around his death quickly arose, as did substantial public interest in the supposed “client list” identifying customers of Epstein’s trafficking operation. Donald Trump promised the release of the client list throughout his 2024 presidential campaign. Pam Bondi, his Attorney General, publicly claimed the list was sitting on her desk. However, on July 6th, Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) released a memo concluding that Epstein did not have a client list and declining to publicly release evidence.

The DOJ has since made weak promises to release grand jury testimonies and talk to Ghislaine Maxwell. However, the DOJ’s reversal of repeated promises of transparency, along with Trump’s aggressive campaign to suppress the story, have violated public trust. Trump’s DOJ already operates as a protection racket for Trump. Trump himself is a convicted rapist with a long history of offenses, including some alongside Epstein. The public deserves to know who was involved in this heinous crime ring. Urge your representatives to demand the full public release of the Epstein files.
