US DOJ to investigatE itself over whether any Epstein-related records were improperly withheld

The Justice Department is investigating itself by reviewing whether it improperly withheld documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. Reports indicate that records involving uncorroborated allegations made against President Trump were not included in the released files.

These involve interviews with a woman who claimed she was sexually assaulted by both Trump and Epstein as a minor. The Justice Department mentioned that if any documents are found to be improperly withheld, they will be published.

Concerns have been raised about the withholding of FBI interviews, and the House Oversight Committee plans to investigate. The department aims for transparency but has faced criticism for flawed redactions that exposed victims' identities.
