U.S. Department of Justice Releases Names of 300 Additional Individuals Connected to the Epstein Case

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has officially released a list of 300 politicians and public figures mentioned in documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. The Attorney General announced this in an official report submitted to the House of Representatives and the Senate Judiciary Committees.

According to Pam Bondi and her deputy, Todd Blanche, the Department of Justice has fully disclosed all materials required for release under the "Epstein Files Transparency Act." However, some documents remain under restricted access due to attorney-client privilege and the confidentiality of ongoing internal investigations.

The published list includes world-class politicians, technology giants, and cultural figures. Specifically:

• Politicians: Donald Trump, Barack and Michelle Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and Hakeem Jeffries;
• Technology and Business: Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk;
• Culture and Arts: Robert De Niro, Bill Cosby, Woody Allen, Bruce Springsteen, Bono, and Beyoncé;
• Public Figures: Prince Harry and Pope John Paul II.

The Department of Justice emphasized that not all individuals named in the list are necessarily involved in criminal activity. The status of the names in the documents varies:

"Inclusion on this list does not prove that an individual engaged in illegal acts or had direct contact with Epstein. While some individuals may have communicated directly with Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell via email, others are mentioned only in press reports within the documents or in excerpts unrelated to the core investigation," the Department stated.

A legal team from the Department of Justice analyzed more than 6 million pages of material related to the case. As a result, over 3.5 million pages have been presented to the public.

During the publication process, the names and personal identification details of victims were fully redacted to protect their rights. These measures were taken to maintain a balance between the transparency of the case and the privacy of individuals.
