DOJ Watchdog Audits Epstein Files

Inspector General William Blier announced that his office will review the department's handling of millions of pages of files.

Lawmakers from both parties have accused the Trump administration of withholding information to protect powerful figures tied to the late sex trafficker.

The audit will also examine concerns about the accidental publication of survivors' personal details in previous releases.

While the DOJ has identified hundreds of referrals for denaturalization related to the case, victims continue to raise doubts about the thoroughness of the investigations.
