The House Oversight Committee released 33,295 pages of records Tuesday evening related to late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein provided by the Justice Department.
The voluminous files represent the most complete picture of the sex trafficking investigation into the disgraced financier, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell on Aug. 10, 2019, while awaiting trial on federal charges.
The contents range from dry transcripts of court proceedings to hours of lurid footage of a nude Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s UK-born socialite and sometime lover currently serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for helping procure girls as young as 14 to the pervert.
Also included are reports from the Palm Beach (Fla.) Police Department detailing the initial sex abuse allegations made against Epstein in 2006 — which led to him taking a much-criticized plea deal in which he was confined for 13 months, spending much of that time on work release.
Still another document contains testimony gushing about Epstein’s generosity to his employees.
The files also contain footage detailing the search of one of Epstein’s several homes and hundreds of flight logs detailing the routes of the well-connected moneyman’s private jet — dubbed the “Lolita Express” due to its use for the regular transport of Epstein’s victims.
The records were subpoenaed by Committee chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) on Aug. 5, and the DOJ has responded, with the promise that any victim identities and material related to child sexual abuse will be redacted.
