US judge rejects bid to unseal Epstein grand jury transcripts from Florida probe

FLORIDA, JUL 25 – Judge Robin Rosenberg ruled that the Justice Department failed to meet federal law exceptions to release grand jury transcripts from Epstein's 2005 and 2007 Florida investigations.

  • On Wednesday, a federal judge in Florida, Robin Rosenberg, denied the Justice Department’s petition to make public the grand jury transcripts from the 2000s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
  • The Justice Department sought the transcripts last week to address public interest and quell conspiracy theories that animate Trump's supporters about Epstein's clients and death.
  • The transcripts relate to Florida’s 2006 probe that led Epstein to plead guilty to soliciting a minor and to Maxwell’s later conviction and 20-year sentence for aiding abuse.
  • Judge Rosenberg wrote the request failed to meet legal exceptions for disclosure and stated, "The court's hands are tied," while a new case for further arguments was opened.
  • The ruling stalls disclosure efforts, maintains grand jury secrecy, and leaves the Justice Department facing criticism amid stalled congressional votes and ongoing public demands.
