DOJ Finds More Than 1 Million Additional Epstein Records, Says Reviews Will Take Weeks

The discovery pushes the rolling release into January, with lawyers focused on redactions to protect survivors.

Overview

  • On Dec. 24, the Justice Department said SDNY and the FBI uncovered over a million more documents potentially tied to the Epstein case and that processing them could take weeks.
  • The department on Tuesday posted its largest tranche yet—more than 11,000 files totaling nearly 30,000 pages—covering photos, emails, court records, logs, videos and other materials.
  • Officials warned the public cache includes unverified claims and confirmed the widely shared Epstein-to–Larry Nassar letter was fake based on FBI analysis of handwriting and postmarks.
  • An internal 2020 email in the files says flight logs showed President Donald Trump took at least eight flights on Epstein’s jet between 1993 and 1996, with no allegation of wrongdoing.
  • Released emails reference investigators seeking updates on 10 potential co‑conspirators, intensifying pressure from survivors and lawmakers for less‑redacted disclosures and possible contempt proceedings over missed deadlines.
