Justice 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.
- On Friday, the Justice Department asked a federal court to unseal grand jury transcripts in United States v. Epstein, fulfilling President Trump's request.
- In a Truth Social post Thursday, President Trump directed Bondi to seek public release of Epstein grand jury testimony after The Wall Street Journal reported on a lewd 2003 birthday letter.

- Axios reported internal tensions flared when FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino clashed with Bondi, enraging parts of Trump’s base.
