The Department of Justice has announced that more Epstein Files will be released today. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told reporters at a Justice Department briefing that the material being made public today exceeds 3 million pages and includes roughly 2,000 videos and 180,000 images.

Earlier in the month, the department had estimated that it had disclosed under 1% of its records related to Epstein. Congress has set a deadline of December 19, 2025, for the department to release all remaining Epstein files. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said at a press conference: "Today, we are producing more than 3 million pages, including more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images in total, that means that the department produced approximately three and a half million pages in compliance with the act."

According to the reports, the new set of Epstein files released by the department today shows a new page asking whether users are 18 years of age or older.

Months after earlier assurances, the Justice Department and FBI issued a memo stating that Jeffrey Epstein had died by suicide, that investigators had found no evidence of any so‑called client list, and that the agencies would not be releasing the investigative records that former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi had suggested would become public.

This reversal triggered anger from both major political parties, and the backlash ultimately pushed Congress to pass a new law aimed at increasing transparency around the case.

He said: "They include large quantities of commercial pornography and images that were seized from Epstein’s devices, but which he did not take, or that someone around him did not take."

Epstein and Maxwell were alleged to have operated a sex‑trafficking network for many years, involving young women and underage girls. Epstein died in jail in 2019 before his case reached trial.

Maxwell was later found guilty in 2021 on charges including child sex trafficking, and she received a 20‑year prison sentence.
