The Justice Department has released documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, but newly reported findings indicate that Attorney General Todd Blanche received classified material which was not disclosed, despite his claims that no files were being withheld on national security grounds. At least three documents in the public records reference classified information, including material on Epstein's finances, which should not have been removed under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The released files show gaps in evidence documentation, with tens of thousands of pages missing from the records, raising questions about what the Trump administration may still be concealing.
Donald Trump, who named Epstein over 38,000 times in the files, campaigned on transparency regarding Epstein's network but has faced criticism for releasing only limited information. Blanche, who took over after Pam Bondi was fired over her handling of the case, continues to defend the department's actions, while a federal judge has ordered further disclosures.
