Trump Signs Bill for Release of Epstein-Related Documents
Former President Donald Trump has officially enacted legislation mandating the U.S. Department of Justice to make public all documents associated with Jeffrey Epstein. This decision follows significant bipartisan support from Congress.
House Oversight Committee’s Findings
The move comes in the wake of the House oversight committee releasing an extensive collection of 23,000 files from Epstein’s estate. Among these documents is an email in which Epstein acknowledged the authenticity of a controversial photograph featuring Prince Andrew with his arm around Virginia Giuffre, while Ghislaine Maxwell is seen in the background.
Epstein’s Email Confirmation
In the email, Epstein stated, “Yes, she was on my plane, and yes, she had her picture taken with Andrew, as many of my employees have.”
Andrew’s Response
Another email reportedly shows Prince Andrew expressing confusion to Maxwell, stating, “What’s all this? I don’t know anything about this. You must SAY so please. This has NOTHING to do with me. I can’t take any more of this.”
Ongoing Investigations
In related developments, the Metropolitan Police are currently investigating allegations that Prince Andrew requested a taxpayer-funded protection officer to collect personal information about Giuffre.
Calls for Cooperation
Marina Lacerda, one of Epstein’s victims, has urged Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, 66, along with their daughters, Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 35, to cooperate with congressional inquiries.
Lacerda stated, “It would be the right thing to do for them to get subpoenaed. He said that he was having pizza with his daughters on the night he was meant to have slept with Giuffre in London. So, it would be nice to get some transparency there, and I would hope that his daughters would speak. They would be truthful about it. We need to stop protecting people because they are our family. We need to start protecting people that are getting hurt by your family.”
