As we’ve reported here, tonight’s small release comes ahead of what should be a far bigger drop of Epstein files.
The US Department of Justice has to share all documents it has related to the paedophile this month, after Donald Trump approved a bill favoured overwhelmingly by Congress.
Ahead of tonight’s small cache of images from Epstein’s island, our US partner network NBC News reported a bipartisan group of US politicians have called on the attorney general to provide an update on the release of those documents.
And they want it by the end of this week.
“In light of the short 30 day deadline to release the Epstein Files, we are particularly focused on understanding the contents of any new evidence, information or procedural hurdles that could interfere with the Department’s ability meet this statutory deadline,” they wrote in a letter to Pam Bondi – dated today – and first obtained by NBC News.
