The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released more than 33,000 pages of documents related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein’s case on Tuesday, saying that more are expected to be forthcoming.
The committee’s chair, Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, subpoenaed the Justice Department for files in the case last month before lawmakers left town for a weeks-long recess.
“We just released ALL the subpoenaed documents from the DOJ related to Jeffrey Epstein,” the Oversight committee said in a post on X. The panel said in a press release that “the Department of Justice has indicated it will continue producing those records while ensuring the redaction of victim identities and any child sexual abuse material.”
It was not immediately clear whether the documents released on Tuesday included any previously unknown information. The Oversight Committee’s top Democrat, Rep. Robert Garcia of California, said in a statement after the panel received the files from the Justice Department that the “overwhelming majority” of them were already public.
Materials related to both Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell have previously been released. Attorney General Pam Bondi released a cache of documents in Epstein’s case in February, but they were heavily redacted and mostly included information that had previously been reported.
