Jeffrey Epstein Files

It all started with the parents of a minor charging Epstein with molesting their minor daughter in 2008. However, following the incident, Epstein made a plea to the civil court. 

However, the police found multiple photos and evidence of minor women at Epstein’s house. Therefore, Epstein was charged with “soliciting prostitution from minor girls.” 

The authorities charged Epstein with running a network of prostitution of underage girls for 11 years. However, Epstein died while he was on trial, in custody. But the courts ruled his death a suicide. 

However, even after so long, multiple victims and agitated people have continued to protest against this. Moreover, people have been demanding more clarity. However, recently, pressure from the storm forced the Trump Administration to release some details related to Charlie Epstein.
