The Department of Justice released more than 3 million pages, including more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, in its files tied to the death and criminal investigation of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says Friday’s release means the DOJ is now in compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which Congress passed last November and which legally required the DOJ to release all the files.

    Many of the statements are marked as unreliable or couldnt be contacted. It seems pretty obvious that a lot of it is true if that many statements exist, but I imagine it could be hard making a case based on that.

      If you get a statement about and event and you have place and time, I think you can investigate and will find more. Giving people protection and telling them they just need a statement, many will come forward.

      The main issue here is people not only fighting the literal government, but also millions of people who voted for their rapist.
