Florida Judge Denies Request to Unseal Epstein Grand Jury Records

According to Jinse Finance, on Wednesday, a federal judge in Florida rejected a request from the Department of Justice to unseal grand jury records related to the Epstein investigation. Attorney General Bondi had pushed for the release of grand jury materials in the Epstein case in an effort to quell the anger of Trump's MAGA base, who have been urging the government to disclose Epstein's so-called "client list." Earlier this month, Trump's Department of Justice and the FBI stated that no such client list exists, and Bondi said she would not release any additional materials. Although the request was denied in Florida, the Department of Justice has another opportunity, as they have also asked two federal judges in New York to unseal grand jury transcripts, where prosecutors have brought charges against Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. Federal courts in New York generally take a less strict approach to grand jury confidentiality. (Politico)
