The U.S. Justice Department released nearly 3.5 million pages of Epstein files on January 30, 2026, under the Epstein Files Transparency Act signed by President Trump in November 2025. These documents detail Epstein's sex trafficking, Ghislaine Maxwell's case, and his 2019 death, naming prominent figures but leading to few prosecutions so far.
