The US Department of Justice (DOJ) announced this Wednesday (24) the discovery of more than a million documents “potentially linked” to the Jeffrey Epstein affair.
The department said it had received “a large volume of documents” from the FBI and would analyze and release them “in accordance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, applicable laws and court orders.”
“Our attorneys are working around the clock to review and make legally required redactions to protect victims. We will release the documents as soon as possible. This process may take several weeks,” the department wrote in an article on X.
Last Tuesday (23), the Ministry of Justice released a new set of documents from the investigation into the Epstein affair, containing approximately 29,000 pages of files.
The bundle includes photos, audio, video and court records, with mentions of President Donald Trump.
According to the Washington Post, the documents reveal that in 2021, a subpoena was sent to Mar-a-Lago, the Republican’s Florida residence, requesting documents related to the government’s case against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend and sex trafficking co-conspirator.
The document also includes emails from a federal prosecutor in Manhattan regarding the number of times Trump allegedly traveled on Epstein’s plane.
The post, written in January 2020, said Trump was listed as a passenger on Epstein’s jet at least eight times between 1993 and 1996, including in some cases where there were also young women on the plane.
Epstein, a financier convicted of sex crimes, died in 2019 in prison, apparently by suicide, while facing charges of sex trafficking of minors.
His scheme involved the exploitation of dozens of victims on properties including a Caribbean island and homes in New York and Florida, with his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell convicted in 2021.
A law approved by Congress in November 2025 requires the disclosure of all unclassified records, overcoming initial resistance from the Trump administration.
