據釋出在美國司法部網站上的宣告稱，美國司法部長邦迪與美國聯邦調查局一起解密並公佈了與“被定罪的性犯罪者傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦及其在紐約州和佛羅里達州等地家中對250多名未成年女孩進行性剝削”有關的檔案。解密檔案的第一階段主要包含“之前已經洩露但從未由美國政府正式釋出的檔案”。
The US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday released government documents related to wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein, but the first wave of files posted on the Justice Department website have largely been circulating in the public domain for years.
宣告稱，美國司法部長邦迪要求獲取與愛潑斯坦案有關的全部檔案。作為回應，司法部收到了大約200頁檔案，但還有數千頁檔案未披露，這些檔案涉及對愛潑斯坦案的調查和起訴。邦迪已經要求聯邦調查局在美國東部時間2月28日上午8時之前將剩餘檔案交給司法部，並責成聯邦調查局局長帕特爾調查為何未按照要求提供所有檔案。
Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a fiery letter to FBI Director Kash Patel on Thursday accusing federal investigators in New York of withholding thousands of pages of Jeffrey Epstein documents she has vowed to make public.Bondi said she had requested the full Epstein case file before Patel was confirmed as the head of the FBI and received about 200 pages of files.She said the FBI had never disclosed the existence of those files and demanded they be turned over by Friday morning.
宣告稱，美國司法部計劃在審查和編輯後公佈剩餘的檔案，以保護愛潑斯坦案受害者的身份。
Bondi acknowledged, though, that some information couldn't be released to protect the identities of the victims. "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 the law," she wrote.

美國億萬富豪傑弗裡·愛潑斯坦在美國政商界人脈極廣，他曾將一座私人島嶼打造成所謂“蘿莉島”，以招募按摩師為由誘拐年輕女孩提供性交易，供權貴階層享樂。2019年，愛潑斯坦因涉嫌進行性交易及合謀拐賣未成年女性被捕並被起訴，在獄中等待審判期間神秘死亡，留下重重疑問。
Epstein, a New York City financier whose social circle included presidents and other rich and powerful figures, died by suicide in a Manhattan jail in 2019 after he was charged with running a sex trafficking ring involving minors.
