Published Epstein files: No new names revealed

US Minister of Justice Pam Bondi had announced that it would publish new information about the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein (1953-2019). “What you will hopefully see tomorrow are a lot of flight protocols, a lot of names, a lot of information,” said Bondi on Wednesday. “The Epstein files: Phase 1”, which were published on Thursday with around 200 pages, hardly received any new information about the environment of Epstein and possibly misconduct from famous personalities that were in contact with Epstein.

The documents mostly contain flight protocols for Epstein’s aircraft and contact information from employees. , it said in a declaration by the Ministry of Justice on Thursday evening that the publication mostly contained files that “were previously known but were never officially released by the US government”. The Ministry of Justice follows President Trump’s commitment to transparency and revealed “the veil about the hideous acts of Jeffrey Epstein and his co -decayers”.

With regard to the contacts of Epstein, the documents should include names of celebrities, but they were already known and are usually not directly related to Epstein’s crimes. According to “People”, Donald Trump (78) name appears in the files. It is said to be called seven times in the flight protocols. , Mick Jagger, Michael Jackson, Alec Baldwin or Naomi Campbell are also said to be called. Prince Andrew is also on the list.

In a civil lawsuit against Epstein, Virginia Giuffre (41) claimed in 2015 that Epstein forced her to sex with Prince Andrew on three different occasions when she was 17 years old. The palace and Andrew referred all accusations. In August 2021, Giuffreg submitted a lawsuit against Prince Andrew for sexual abuse. In February 2022, the lawsuit was finally settled out of court, supposedly against the payment of a million sum.

It should not remain the first time publication of files. Bondi was informed that “thousands of pages on documents in connection with the investigation and the indictment against Epstein” that have not been disclosed. She asked the FBI to send the ministry to the remaining documents by February 28, “and commissioned the FBI director Kash Patel to investigate why the request was not examined”. FBI boss Kash Patel (45) said in a statement: “If there are gaps, we will find them. If records have been hidden, we will uncover them. And we will present everything we find to the Ministry of Justice so that it can be completely evaluated and transparently passed on to the American people.”

The Epstein case caused a sensation. The convicted investment banker, who was known for his relationships with prominent and high -ranking politicians, committed suicide in a federal prison in New York in August 2019. There he was waiting for his process, including human trafficking. Epstein’s long -time partner and complicity Ghislaine Maxwell (63) has been detained since July 2020. In June 2022, she was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
