33 thousand documents released in the Jeffrey Epstein case

Another significant event occurred in the US Congress. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform disclosed more than 33,000 documents related to the American financier Jeffrey Epstein case. Epstein is accused of violence and sexual exploitation against children.

These documents were obtained from the US Department of Justice in August. Some information was kept confidential to protect the privacy and safety of the victims when releasing the documents.

The committee chairman, Republican James Comer from Kentucky, emphasized that they are trying to quickly find answers to all questions. Jeffrey Epstein was arrested by New York law enforcement agencies on July 6, 2019.

According to the prosecutor's information, from 2002 to 2005, he attracted dozens of underage girls to his Manhattan home. The youngest of them was 14 years old.

During the investigation, it was revealed that Epstein had close connections not only in the US but also with influential figures in other countries. It became known that among his friends were former heads of state, major businessmen, politicians, and show business representatives.

However, the case against the financier was not completed. On August 10, 2019, it was officially reported that he committed suicide in his prison cell, and criminal prosecutions against him were stopped.

The public and journalists note that many questions remain open around this case. In particular, the names of influential people connected to Epstein, some confidential information, and his mysterious death continue to provoke wide discussions.
