💨 Abstract

The U.S. Department of Justice faces a deadline to release its files on Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender and wealthy financier known for his connections to influential figures like Donald Trump. The files could provide the most detailed look yet into nearly two decades of government investigations into Epstein's sexual abuse of young women and minors. The public and Epstein's accusers have long sought answers about why federal authorities closed their initial investigation in 2008.
