The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday evening released 33,295 pages of records provided by the Justice Department, offering the most comprehensive look yet into the federal sex-trafficking investigation of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

What the Files Contain
The massive trove includes:
Court transcripts and police reports, including the original 2005 Palm Beach Police Department case that led to Epstein’s controversial 13-month plea deal.
Flight logs for Epstein’s private jet — known as the “Lolita Express” — detailing trips to St. Thomas and near his private island, Little St. James.
Property search footage from Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion showing nude photos, framed pictures, letters, and computer equipment.
Redacted video interviews of Epstein’s victims.
Emails between Bureau of Prisons officials weeks before Epstein’s 2019 death, revealing he had requested protective custody and had a “pending incident report of self-mutilation.”
One video shows a nude Ghislaine Maxwell — Epstein’s former associate now serving a 20-year sentence — during a police search of his property.
DOJ and Committee Action
The files were turned over after Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) subpoenaed the Justice Department on Aug. 5.
The DOJ pledged to redact victim identities and child sexual abuse material.
The documents were made available on Google Drive, though the size of the dump quickly triggered download limits for many users.
Political Dispute
The release has already sparked partisan division in Congress.
Republicans argue the release increases transparency. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) wrote on X that a floor vote on releasing Epstein files may now be unnecessary: “They will all be made public.”
Democrats counter that the committee release was designed to undercut a bipartisan discharge petition filed by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), which would force a full House vote demanding the DOJ release all Epstein files.
“Over 97% of those documents have already been released to the public,” said Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), adding that most had been given to “right-wing influencers” months earlier. He accused President Trump of a “cover up” to block additional disclosures and urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all files immediately.
Next Steps
If Khanna and Massie secure 218 signatures, the discharge petition could still force a House vote. Garcia argued that step is vital to ensure “the full Congress is on record” demanding a complete release of files.
