DOJ announces 'a million more documents' related to Jeffrey Epstein on Christmas Eve
The Department of Justice announced what could be "a million more documents" related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
In a Christmas Eve post on X, the DOJ said that the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York and the FBI located the documents.
"[T[hey have uncovered over a million more documents potentially related to the Jeffrey Epstein case," the department claimed. "The DOJ has received these documents from SDNY and the FBI to review them for release, in compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, existing statutes, and judicial orders."
"We have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions to protect victims, and we will release the documents as soon as possible. Due to the mass volume of material, this process may take a few more weeks. The Department will continue to fully comply with federal law and President Trump's direction to release the files."
According to a law signed by President Donald Trump, "all" files related to Epstein were to be released by the end of last week.
