DOJ audit of Epstein files

Inspector General William Blier announced the probe to determine if the DOJ fully complied with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Lawmakers from both parties have accused the administration of withholding information that could implicate powerful figures associated with the late financier.

The audit will specifically examine how materials were collected and reviewed before being released to the public.

Victims' advocates have expressed doubt about the thoroughness of previous investigations into Epstein's network.
