Overview

  • In mid-July Bondi petitioned a federal court to unseal grand jury transcripts from Epstein’s 2008 Florida proceedings.
  • Bipartisan lawmakers and advocacy groups argue the February release of Epstein documents was overly redacted and offered little new information.
  • In February Bondi told Fox News an Epstein client list was “sitting on my desk,” yet a DOJ statement on July 6 declared no such list exists.
  • On July 6 the Department of Justice announced it would not release any additional evidence in the Epstein investigation.
  • Her recent proposal to transfer felon gun-rights restoration authority from the ATF to the Attorney General’s office has sparked further scrutiny of her expanding powers.
