CNN: Dozens of FBI Files Missing from Epstein Records

A CNN report reveals significant gaps in the FBI's records related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. According to the report, dozens of witness interviews, more than 90 out of a total of 325 files, are missing from the Department of Justice's website where the records were released. Among the missing files are three testimonies related to allegations against Donald Trump for sexual abuse. This has sparked outrage from the Democratic Party, which questions whether the Trump administration complied with the law regarding the release of the files. Democratic Representative Robert Garcia expresses concern about the loss of crucial testimonies related to the allegations against Trump. Trump denies the allegations, and the White House calls them 'false,' citing a previous Department of Justice statement that some documents contain false claims. The Department of Justice insists that no files have been deleted and that the unpublished documents were either copies, confidential, or part of an ongoing investigation. Furthermore, several Epstein victims report that they were unable to find their own FBI submissions on the Department of Justice website. This case raises serious questions about the transparency and completeness of the released records.
