Trump Signs Bill Ordering Release of Epstein Investigation Files. U.S. President Donald Trump has signed a bill requiring the Justice Department to release all files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein within 30 days. The legislation covers documents from criminal investigations, including victim interviews, internal communications, flight logs, and seized property. Trump previously opposed releasing the files but reversed course after pressure from Epstein's victims and members of his own party. The measure passed Congress almost unanimously, with the House voting 427-1 and the Senate granting unanimous consent. While the law mandates disclosure, portions may be withheld to protect privacy or ongoing investigations. Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting sex trafficking charges, had ties to numerous high-profile figures. Victims' families called the move "monumental," emphasizing that all names must be revealed, regardless of wealth, power, or political affiliation. Attorney General Pam Bondi is now tasked with overseeing the release, ensuring that transparency balances with the protection of active investigations and victim identities.
