Transparency triumphs in the saga of sex trafficking mogul Jeffrey Epstein. Acting on a Trump-era law, the Department of Justice has flooded public domain with 3.5 million pages from Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell probes—complete with thousands of videos and photos.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch briefed reporters on the feat, enabled by the 2025 Epstein Files Transparency Act. Over 500 legal minds toiled for 75 days, convening multiple times daily to vet an initial six-million-page pool down to essentials.
Inside: raw investigation files, witness interviews, digital hauls from Epstein’s devices (featuring external porn), emails, and visuals. Redactions shield victim privacy, CSAM, probe integrity, gore—no holds for spy games or diplomacy.
Women anonymized visually save Maxwell; men generally named. Legislators peek unedited with nod.
Pushing back on conspiracy chatter, Blanch nixed Maxwell’s phantom plea deal tales and cover-up claims. ‘Full law compliance, zero shields,’ he declared.
Final paperwork to Capitol Hill committees seals the deal. Epstein perished in custody 2019; Maxwell rots in prison post-verdict. As files disseminate, expect shockwaves through high society.
