The Justice Department on Friday started putting out a massive batch of records tied to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, meeting part—but not all—of a disclosure mandate Congress imposed and President Trump signed into law last month. Officials said the release would ultimately total several hundred thousand pages, with more files expected in the coming weeks rather than by the deadline specified in the statute. Democrats and some Republicans criticized the Trump administration for not releasing all the files by the deadline of Friday, the reports, and questioned the redactions.
