Top Justice Department Official Plays Down Chance for Charges Arising From Epstein Files Revelations

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says no new prosecutions are anticipated despite DOJ releasing over 3 million Epstein-related documents, including emails and photos.

  • On Sunday, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said further criminal charges are unlikely after the Justice Department's recent document release, stating 'this review is over.'
  • The Justice Department released roughly three million pages, more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images to comply with a law passed by Congress last year after reviewing over six million pieces of paper.
  • Among the released files, Epstein's emails include Steve Bannon, Steve Tisch, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, with over 38,000 references to Trump-related terms and uncorroborated tips.
  • Survivors of Epstein's abuse said they were upset that some victims' names were inadvertently released without redactions, and the U.S. Department of Justice said it moved quickly to fix those errors after the files' release on Sunday.
  • Department officials say 'the department looked carefully at the material in our possession,' but critics including Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., argue the DOJ has not fully complied, prompting ongoing scrutiny.
