So far, only 12,000 documents containing 125,000 pages have been released in three tranches.
More than 2 million files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are still to be released, according to a court filling Monday night from the Department of Justice which said a team of 400 lawyers was reviewing the documents to ensure “victim privacy.”
The filing also said the department would review its procedures for evaluating the files after victims complained that some information posted should have been redacted.
The DOJ filing confirms reporting from NBC News last week that millions of files were being reviewed before their planned release. So far, only 12,000 documents containing 125,000 pages have been released in three tranches.
With how redacted the files have been so far they hardly need releasing. Would be more effective and informational to tell people to close their eyes and imagine what the Epstein files look like.
… Unless someone else at the DOJ feels like botching up some digital redactions again. Would be nice.
