Attorney General Pam Bondi is calling for an investigation into the FBI for allegedly not releasing the remaining files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
The Department of Justice has made public the first phase of declassified documents connected to Epstein, primarily comprising previously known flight logs, phone records, and other materials associated with the convicted sex trafficker’s network.
Titled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1,” these documents were initially shared with a group of select conservative influencers before being made widely available to the public on Thursday evening. The DOJ has not provided any information regarding the possibility of additional phases or a timeline for future disclosures.
“The first phase of files released today sheds light on Epstein’s extensive network and begins to provide the public with long-overdue accountability,” Bondi stated. “This Department of Justice is following through on President Trump’s commitment to transparency and lifting the veil on the disgusting actions of Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirators.”
According to the DOJ, this release forms part of a wider initiative aimed at enhancing transparency surrounding Epstein’s criminal actions and his connections. Nevertheless, some critics have voiced their dissatisfaction. Representative Anna Paulina Luna, who leads President Trump’s declassification task force, noted that the release did not include the crucial information the public had anticipated.
The DOJ has not indicated whether more names of high-profile figures associated with Epstein will emerge in upcoming releases. The FBI, which faces accusations of withholding information, is under increased pressure to provide additional materials following Bondi’s call for complete transparency.
Bondi has demanded that the FBI deliver the remaining documents by 8:00 a.m. on Friday and has tasked FBI Director Kash Patel with investigating why the request for all documents was not met.
“There will be no cover-ups, no missing documents, and no stone left unturned – and anyone from the prior or current Bureau who undermines this will be swiftly pursued,” Patel stated following Bondi’s earlier demand for the immediate release of all relevant files. “The FBI is entering a new era – one that will be defined by integrity, accountability, and the unwavering pursuit of justice.”
