DOJ to Start Delivering Epstein Docs Following Comer’s Subpoena [WATCH]

The Department of Justice will begin providing documents related to Jeffrey Epstein to the House Oversight Committee on Friday, according to an announcement made by Chairman James Comer (R-KY) on Monday, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

“Officials with the Department of Justice have informed us that the Department will begin to provide Epstein-related records to the Oversight Committee this week on Friday,” Comer said.

“There are many records in DOJ’s custody, and it will take the Department time to produce all the records and ensure the identification of victims and any child sexual abuse material are redacted. I appreciate the Trump Administration’s commitment to transparency and efforts to provide the American people with information about this matter.”

The move follows a subpoena issued earlier this month by Comer, which requested “all documents and communications relating or referring to” Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell by August 19.

In a letter addressed to Attorney General Pam Bondi, Comer emphasized the importance of full congressional oversight in examining how federal authorities handled Epstein and Maxwell’s cases.

“While the Department undertakes efforts to uncover and publicly disclose additional information related to Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell’s cases, it is imperative that Congress conduct oversight of the federal government’s enforcement of sex trafficking laws generally and specifically its handling of the investigation and prosecution of Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell,” Comer wrote.

The Oversight Committee has been pressing for access to documents and internal communications in order to determine how Epstein, who was connected to numerous high-profile individuals, was investigated and prosecuted prior to his death in 2019 while in federal custody.

The Department of Justice has not indicated how long the production process will take but confirmed that redactions will be made to protect victims and remove prohibited materials.

The Oversight Committee is expected to review the first round of records immediately upon receipt and will continue receiving additional batches as they are processed.

The release of documents marks one of the most significant developments in congressional efforts to review Epstein’s connections and the handling of his criminal case.

We are working closely with @TheJusticeDept to obtain all the documents related to the Epstein investigation.

Lawmakers have signaled that they intend to make public as much information as possible, while balancing the need to protect victims’ privacy.

The committee has not set a specific timeline for hearings or public disclosures related to the documents but has indicated that further action will follow once the material has been reviewed.
