Lawmakers, Survivors Demand Probe Into Delayed Epstein Files

Some U.S. lawmakers and survivors of Jeffrey Epstein are calling for an investigation. They want the Justice Department's internal watchdog to review why the full case files have not been released. The files are related to the convicted sex offender and financier. Their release was expected, but is now delayed indefinitely. The internal watchdog is called the Office of the Inspector General. The group wants this office to examine the department's handling of the documents. They are seeking answers for the holdup. This push adds to the ongoing public pressure for full transparency in the Epstein case. The documents are believed to contain names and details about Epstein’s network.
