The DOJ has been taking down Epstein files. Here’s what remains

CBS News: “The massive tranche of files the Justice Department currently maintains is more than 65,000 pages shorter than what the agency initially released. After removing tens of thousands of files, the Department of Justice currently makes public about 2.7 million pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, a CBS News analysis found, a number below the Department’s initial claim of 3 million, and a total that continues to fluctuate. 

The Justice Department initially said that its release, made in response to a law passed by Congress compelling the agency to disclose nearly all files related to Epstein, comprised more than 3 million pages. Combined with previously released materials, the Department put the total at 3.5 million pages. And now, in part in response to widespread criticism and concernfrom survivors and their attorneys that the files contain nearly 100 survivors’ personal information and photos, the DOJ has scrambled to remove documents. 

A CBS News analysis found that as of late February, the Justice Department has taken down more than 47,000 files comprising about 65,500 pages. Links to those files now return a “page not found” error on the department’s website. Some of those removed documents contained explicit images or survivor information — including one document with unredacted photos of 21 survivors along with most of their birthdates. 

But the reasons for other files’ removal is unclear, such as a call log with all names redacted and images of Epstein’s jail bunk where investigators say he hanged himself. The Justice Department appears to be putting some removed files back up. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the department reviewed 6 million total pages, meaning what it initially released constitutes less than half of the total. He said the DOJ withheld files to protect survivors and ongoing investigations, but lawmakers, who have access to the unredacted trove, have criticized the redactions, arguing that some protect powerful men instead of survivors.

 In response to inquiries from CBS News, Department of Justice spokesperson Natalie Baldassarre said that “CBS’s analysis appears to be fundamentally flawed” and that the department has “not deleted any files from the library.” But she also wrote that more than 47,000 files remain offline for further review, a file-count similar to what CBS News found had been removed. She added that the files will be ready for re-production by the end of the week…”
