Epstein files reveal scale of alleged abuse of underage girls

Justice Department files reveal Epstein verified victims’ ages using IDs and contained photos of girls aged 14 to 17, highlighting preferences and links to high-profile figures.

  • On Friday, the US Department of Justice released over 600,000 pages this year after President Donald Trump signed off on the files' release.
  • Long ago investigative notes from May 2, 2019 show how Epstein identified victims, and officials had opened three separate investigations into his conduct.
  • Among the files, notes show Epstein required girls to show ID to confirm they were under 18, with photos suggesting some were aged 14 and 17, and a $22,500 check from Trump.
  • The release links Epstein to numerous well-known figures, including Billionaire tech CEO Bill Gates and former President Bill Clinton, while President Trump refused to answer questions on Friday.
  • This year's release highlights reported racial and nationality preferences, including directives like `not dark` and Brazilian girls, prompting renewed inquiries and survivor accountability efforts.
