DOJ Inspector General Launches Investigation Into Compliance With Epstein Files Transparency Act
The DOJ's Office of Inspector General announced Thursday it is investigating the Department's compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires full disclosure of files about sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The audit comes after months of complaints that the DOJ withheld many records about Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. Attorneys representing over 100 Epstein victims called for meaningful accountability, while one attorney expressed skepticism the audit wouldn't be a partisan performance.
