Files appear to contain information already in public domain as calls grow for release of all pertinent documents
The US House of Representatives oversight committee on Tuesday released thousands of pages of records related to the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein from the department of justice.
The release comes as the Trump administration has been embroiled in months of controversy over its decision not to release additional files in the case. Epstein died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges and was alleged to have abused hundreds of girls.
The 33,000 pages included years-old court filings related to Epstein and his former girlfriend and associate Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as what appears to be bodycam footage from police searches and police interviews. The files appear to contain information that is already public knowledge.
…of things already known and public while keeping the rest locked away.
Just another distracting smokescreen.
They released the files. Now to stop asking for it.
Most of the documents released this week were already public, including records from the 2005 investigation into Epstein which contained a notation indicating the inquiry had been released previously in a 2017 public records request.
Whelp, this is just a distraction. Keep calling your representatives on this and tell other US citizens to do the same.
Not to mention that 33K pages out of 300GB of data is essentially nothing, even if none of it was previously public.

Interesting. I did a quick search to get an estimate of the number of pages in a GB of data. One page I found put the number of pages in a GB of data between 65,000 pages (if they’re Word files) and 100,000 pages (for emails). So if there are 300GB of Epstein data total, then there are somewhere between 19.5 million and 30 million pages in total.
If we assume all the files are Word files, 33,000 pages is about .17% of the total. If it’s emails then 33,000 pages is about 11% of the total. So yeah. Essentially nothing. Assuming I did the math right, there are somewhere between 99.83% and 99.89% of the files yet to be released.

They are all on the list, and they know they will be skinned alive when it comes out.
This was the bombshell 9/3 announcement?
No that’s later today and nothing to do with Congress
Oh thank god.
What are they hiding?
33,000?! That’s a lot. How many are there total?
