US EditionJustice Department asks court to unseal Jeffrey Epstein grand jury records
UNITED STATES, JUL 18 – The Justice Department seeks to unseal grand jury transcripts from Jeffrey Epstein's prosecution to address public demand for transparency amid controversy over his death and alleged ties.
- In a filing Friday, the Justice Department asked a federal court to unseal grand jury transcripts in United States v. Epstein, with victim-related redactions.
- In a Truth Social post Thursday, Trump ordered Bondi to seek public release of Epstein grand jury testimony after The Wall Street Journal reported on a lewd 2003 birthday letter, Trump said.
- According to the Justice Department, the transcripts include witness testimony, and the DOJ will work with New York prosecutors to redact victim-related and personal identifying information.
- Axios reported internal tensions flared when Trump’s base reacted strongly after the DOJ memo enraged supporters and stoked conspiracy theories.
- If the judges grant the request, grand jury transcripts likely won’t be immediately available and could take weeks or months to unseal.
