In a brutal and revealing letter from Jamie Raskin to Pam Bondi, Epstein survivors confirm that there was a sprawling criminal investigation into Epstein and Maxwell’s uncharged co-conspirators. Rep. Raskin wants to know why the Trump administration commandeered that probe, transferred the files to Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, and then shuttered the investigation after declaring there was no credible evidence to predicate further investigation.

Given Trump’s latest move to shield release of the files by opening a new investigation (controlled by him), it’s important to understand that all of this is an effort to protect the perpetrators at the expense of the survivors.
