Epstein associate convicted of sex trafficking - Serving 20-year federal sentence; appeals exhausted after Supreme Court rejection

Jeffrey Epstein is dead, but his paper trail has created a constitutional crisis. On January 30, 2026, the Justice Department released more than 3 million pages of documents, 2,000 videos, and 180,000 images—declaring full compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act despite releasing only about half of the 6 million pages it reviewed. Within hours, attorneys representing hundreds of survivors discovered catastrophic failures: at least 43 victims' full names were exposed, including two dozen who were minors when abused, alongside nearly 40 unredacted nude photos; a Wall Street Journal review found some victim names appeared over 100 times. Attorney Brad Edwards, representing about 300 survivors, called it "literally thousands of mistakes" and potentially "the single most egregious violation of victim privacy in one day in United States history."
