The DOJ\u2019s deadline to turn over the files is the same day the Senate Judiciary Committee is set to vote on whether Blanche\u2019s nomination for the permanent AG role should move forward to a full Senate vote. Blanche\u2019s handling of the Epstein files\u2014particularly regarding documents that were either improperly redacted or withheld\u2014has become a major sticking point in the fight over his confirmation, and Sen. Thom Tillis<\/u>, R-N.C., said Blanche needed to meet with Epstein victims before he would vote in his favor. Blanche ultimately did meet with victims shortly after Tillis made his demand, but the victims have decried that meeting as being woefully insufficient<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Crucial Quote<\/h2>\n

Former federal prosecutor Joyce White Vance argued<\/u> Saturday that Sullivan\u2019s order to review the documents privately suggests the judge isn\u2019t willing to take the DOJ at its word that the Epstein files under scrutiny don\u2019t need to be released or unredacted. \u201cThe government has acted like it has something to hide, even after Congress passed the Transparency Act and Trump signed it into law,\u201d Vance wrote. \u201cSo the Judge isn\u2019t accepting what the government has represented to it as truthful, and is requiring documentation to support its claims.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Could These Epstein Files Be Released?<\/h2>\n

Sullivan could rule anytime after the Thursday deadline that the government must release the documents publicly\u2014either immediately, as Phang wants, or after a 7-day or 60-day delay, which is what the DOJ wants if a release is ordered. While some documents would be able to be released quickly, like materials that only have a couple things redacted, others could take longer to produce, like materials in foreign languages. If the judge rules the documents don\u2019t have to be released immediately, that would give the Trump administration time to ask an appeals court to overrule Sullivan and keep the documents private. It\u2019s also possible Sullivan could side with the DOJ that the documents don\u2019t have to be released at all, at which point Phang could ask a higher court to take up the case. In either case, bringing the dispute to an appeals court could mean the documents would remain under wraps for weeks or months longer while new judges consider the case.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s In The Disputed Epstein Files?<\/h2>\n

The disputed files include eight emails that appear to discuss women. A 2013 email saying, \u201cNew Brazilian just arrived, sexy and cute, 19yo,\u201d is at issue, for instance, while in a 2014 email, an unnamed sender told Epstein, \u201cThank you for a fun night\u2026 Your littlest girl was a little naughty.\u201d In 2015, an anonymous sender wrote, \u201cThe key are the 14 to 15 year old girls\u2014i am a sexual pervert because i say they are now of a reproductive age?\u201d The emails go up to 2018, when an unnamed person told Epstein, \u201cI found at least 3 very good young poor but we was so tired. I will cover up this week. Meet this one, not the beauty queen but we both likes her a lot.\u201d In September of that year, an anonymous person then told Epstein, \u201cMy favorite from Lithuania, [REDACTED], 19. Will meet when I am there.\u201d The case also concerns prosecutors\u2019 draft indictment against Epstein in 2007, which ultimately was never issued because the financier instead reached a non-prosecution agreement. The indictment has a heading titled \u201cCo-conspirators,\u201d but four of the five names it lists are redacted, other than associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Phang has asked the DOJ to also release notes from the FBI\u2019s interview with an unnamed woman, who alleged<\/u> she was forced to perform oral sex on Trump in the 1980s after meeting him through Epstein. (Trump has strongly denied the allegations, which have not been corroborated.) Other documents related to that accuser were also previously not made public, but the Trump administration then released<\/u> them amid a public outcry, claiming they had been incorrectly labeled as duplicates. In addition to the documents themselves, Phang also wants the government to comply with a provision in the Epstein Files Transparency Act that requires the DOJ to submit a detailed redaction log explaining why each document with redactions was altered.<\/p>\n

Why Is The DOJ Against Releasing Them?<\/h2>\n

The DOJ claimed in a that unredacting the names in the disputed emails and draft indictment would be inappropriate, because the redacted people are allegedly victims whose names are required to be redacted. Officials also claimed other information shouldn\u2019t be unredacted because it includes private email addresses, and claimed that an email in which Epstein told an anonymous person he \u201cloved the torture video\u201d didn\u2019t have to be unredacted, because lawmakers had already identified the recipient as Emerati businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem. To justify not releasing the FBI interview over the Trump allegations, the DOJ claimed the underlying notes were \u201csubstantially similar\u201d to the FBI\u2019s report on the interview that was made public, and alleged the \u201chandwritten nature\u201d of the notes would make it harder to identify victim information. The DOJ also claimed it didn\u2019t have to release foreign language documents because it had already told Congress \u201cit was not practicable for a first-level reviewer to determine the responsiveness of a foreign language document,\u201d and claimed a summary of redactions the DOJ had submitted to Congress meant it didn\u2019t have to provide any further redaction log. Phang lambasted the Trump administration\u2019s arguments in a subsequent filing to the court, alleging the DOJ was ignoring provisions of the Epstein Files Transparency Act that explicitly require a redaction log and making improper arguments about when information was allowed to be withheld.<\/p>\n
