Full Epstein files put on display in New York

“NEW YORK: A US transparency advocacy group has opened a temporary exhibition in New York with only one text on display: a printout of all the files released by the US Department of Justice, roughly 3.5 million pages, relating to financier and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. The library, dubbed The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room, has bound all the documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act in 3,437 volumes, all numbered and organised on shelves. “The truth is hard to deny when it’s printed and bound for you to see,” reads the website for the Institute of Primary Facts, the Washington-based non-profit behind the display. Those interested in seeing the files at the library in Tribeca can do so by registering online. However, due to errors by the Department of Justice in failing to redact the names of some of the victims included in the documents, the general public is not allowed to consult the files. The exhibit offers exceptions for some professionals like journalists and lawyers. The pop-up also has a display on the long-standing relationship between President Donald Trump and Epstein, who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges involving minors. David Garrett, one of the creators behind the project, believes “there needs to be real public outcry” about how the Trump administration has handled the document release, with many accusing officials of covering up Trump’s ties to Epstein.
