DOJ appears to have withheld some Trump-related Epstein files, House Democrats say

The Department of Justice appears to have withheld dozens of pages of witness notes and reports about an alleged victim of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein who, according to Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), accused President Donald Trump of assaulting her when she was a minor.

An index of witness materials prepared in advance of the trial of Epstein convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell suggests that FBI agents interviewed the woman identified by Garcia four times in 2019, but an ABC News search of the DOJ’s vast public archive of Epstein files found a report about just one of the meetings.
