Epstein files released by DOJ [View all]

Source: CNBC

Published Fri, Dec 19 2025 5:44 AM EST Updated 4 Min Ago


The Department of Justice on Friday released some — but not all — of its investigative files about Jeffrey Epstein, the notorious sex predator. The release came on the deadline set by the recently signed Epstein Files Transparency Act for the DOJ to release all of the files.

The DOJ’s website features a new page titled “Epstein Library,” which has a search box to look for keywords in the newly released files. The material included hundreds of photographs, some of which featured Epstein and his former girlfriend and convicted accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as images that appeared to show parts of his home and other locations.

It was not immediately clear how much of the released material was not previously publicly available through other sources.

The search box did not immediately appear to work, as searches for words including “Epstein” generated a message saying: “No results found. Please try a different search.” “This site houses materials responsive under the Epstein Files Transparency Act,” the site says. “This site will be updated if additional documents are identified for release.”

The DOJ's website features a new page titled "Epstein Library," which has a search box to look for keywords in the newly released files.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche earlier Friday told Fox News, "I expect that we're going to release several hundred thousand documents today."

"I expect that we're going to release more documents over the next couple of weeks, so today several hundred thousand, and then over the next couple weeks," Blanche said. "I expect several hundred thousand more." Blanche said the DOJ was reviewing each file to redact names and identities of Epstein's victims.
