Wyden says Trump admin sitting on Epstein bank records: ‘They’re refusing to investigate’
UNITED STATES, JUL 21 – Senator Wyden revealed over $1.5 billion in flagged transactions linked to Epstein's sex-trafficking network, urging DOJ and banks for full transparency and reforms in financial reporting.
- On July 17, 2025, Senator Ron Wyden, ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee, accused the Trump administration of withholding a Treasury document that lists 4,725 wire transfers connected to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operation.
- Wyden's investigation followed Epstein's 2019 death in federal custody and focuses on nearly $1.1 billion moved through one Epstein-linked bank, with concerns that information is being suppressed to protect powerful associates.
- Wyden criticized Treasury and Justice officials, including former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, for refusing to share key documents despite prior promises to release Epstein-related financial records.
- Wyden emphasized that uncovering financial transactions was central to the investigation and called on Congress to access Treasury files that could reveal money laundering and the funding behind Epstein's criminal network.
- The ongoing dispute signals continued political pressure to uncover Epstein's financial dealings, with Wyden vowing to hold officials accountable and push for transparency amid official denials and resistance.
