After the DOJ released thousands of files Friday (December 19) following Donald Trump’s signing of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, several files have disappeared from the site, and one featured Donald Trump.
Numerous files shared by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in connection with the investigations into sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein have seemingly disappeared — including one featuring Donald Trump.
At least 16 files were removed from the DOJ Epstein library website, including a photograph of Trump, the AP is reporting.
The missing files included “images of paintings depicting nude women, and one showing a series of photographs along a credenza and in drawers. In that image, inside a drawer among other photos, was a photograph of Trump, alongside Epstein, Melania Trump and Epstein’s longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.”
The Justice Department has not yet addressed specifically why the photos disappeared, only sharing on social media: “Photos and other materials will continue being reviewed and redacted consistent with the law in an abundance of caution as we receive additional information.”
“This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release. @AGPamBondi is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public,” the Oversight Dems wrote on X.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said redactions are “simply … to protect victims.”
“We’re going through a very methodical process with hundreds of lawyers looking at every single document and making sure that victims’ names and any of the information from victims is protected and redacted, which is exactly what the (Epstein Files) Transparency Act expects,” he said on Meet the Press on Sunday (December 21), per CNN.
