The Trump administration asked federal judges on Friday to unseal grand jury transcripts from the prosecutions of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, citing public demand for transparency and renewed scrutiny of how the Justice Department handled the high-profile sex-trafficking cases.
The requests, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, follow President Donald Trump’s public request to Attorney General Pam Bondi to “produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval.” Trump made his request Thursday night in a post to Truth Social amid rising pressure from his political base and Democrats demanding full disclosure of what the government found in its yearslong investigation.
