Jeffrey Epstein's victims have expressed anger over the partial and heavily-censored release of documents. Though Trump officials said they were protecting Epstein's victims with the blackouts, the many redactions have only added to calls for justice in a case that continues to fuel conspiracy theories from the president's base.

US Justice Department officials on Sunday, December 21, denied redacting the Epstein files to protect President Donald Trump, as criticism mounted over the partial and heavily-censored release of documents.

Victims of Jeffrey Epstein have expressed anger after a cache of records from cases against the late sex offender were released Friday with many pages blacked out and photos censored.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Sunday defended the release by the Justice Department, telling NBC’s Meet the Press that “we are not redacting information around President Trump.” When asked if any material was redacted to due to political sensitivities – which would be illegal – Blanche replied “absolutely, positively not.”
