An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Release All Six Million Subpoenaed Epstein Documents Without Redaction

11 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

The Department of Justice's handling of the Epstein investigation documents represents a fundamental breach of congressional oversight authority and a betrayal of over 1,000 victims seeking accountability. Congress issued a lawful subpoena for six million documents, photographs, and videos from the Epstein files. The DOJ has produced only three million, claiming the remaining three million are "duplicative." This explanation is demonstrably false. Among the withheld materials are victim statements and the DOJ's own 2019 prosecution memo, which was also removed from public access. These are not duplicates. They are critical evidence that Congress needs to fulfill its constitutional oversight responsibilities and that victims deserve to see made public. Even if some materials were duplicative, there is no legitimate reason to withhold them. The claim of duplication appears designed to obscure what the DOJ is actually hiding. The pattern of obstruction suggests the withheld documents contain information about abusers, enablers, accomplices, and coconspirators that someone does not want revealed. The documents that were produced demonstrate either shocking incompetence or deliberate malice. The DOJ redacted the names of perpetrators and accomplices, the very people Congress ordered be identified. Simultaneously, many victims' names were left unredacted, publicly exposing individuals who had kept their trauma private for years. This inversion of proper redaction protocol has caused immeasurable additional harm to survivors. I urge you to demand the immediate release of all six million subpoenaed documents without improper redaction. Congress has the constitutional authority to conduct oversight of the executive branch, and the DOJ's defiance of a lawful subpoena cannot stand. The survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking operation have waited long enough for justice. They deserve to know who enabled these crimes and why those individuals have been protected rather than prosecuted.
