Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to FBI Kash Patel, accusing the New York FBI office of withholding Jeffrey Epstein documents.
“I repeatedly questioned whether this was the full set of documents responsive to my request and was repeatedly assured by the FBI that we had received the full set of documents,” Bondi told Patel. “Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of Epstein.”
Bondi hoped to release the files today. Outside of the White House, a few influencers showed off binders to Phase 1.
“By 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, February 28, the FBI will deliver the full and complete Epstein files 10 my office, including all records, documents, audio and video recordings, and materials related lo Jeffrey Epstein and his clients, regardless of how such information was obtained,” continued Bondi. “There will be no withholdings or limitations to my or your access. The Department of Justice will ensure that any public disclosure of these files will be done in a manner to protect the privacy of victims and in accordance with law, as I have done my entire career as a prosecutor.”
Bondi also ordered Patel to investigate why the FBI did not follow her order.
“You will deliver to me a comprehensive report of your findings and proposed personnel action within 14 days,” Bondi wrote.
A source told The New York Post that Thursday’s files contain Epstein’s “address book, including a list of contacts without further context.”
It does not include a client list.
