DoJ Uncovers 1 Million More Epstein Documents, Release Weeks Away

• The US Department of Justice (DoJ) announced the discovery of over 1 million additional documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
• Federal prosecutors in Manhattan (SDNY) and the FBI uncovered these files, complying with the Epstein Files Transparency Act and judicial orders.
• Processing and redacting the "mass volume of material" to protect victims will take "a few more weeks."
• The third set of released files included an email suggesting Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet multiple times, including with a "then-20-year-old."
• Victims and lawmakers have expressed outrage and threatened action due to delays and limited initial disclosures, missing the December 19 deadline.

Why It Matters: DoJ found 1 million more Epstein documents, delaying full release due to volume and redaction needs.
