DoJ official makes Epstein cover-up claims in hinge date honey trap
A DOJ official alleges Epstein files will be heavily redacted to exclude Republicans, causing controversy and criticism within political circles and Trump's base.
- In September 2025, DOJ official Joseph Schnitt was covertly recorded making claims about selective redactions in Jeffrey Epstein case files and a prison transfer for Ghislaine Maxwell.
- This occurred amid ongoing disputes over the release of over 33,000 pages of Epstein-related documents recently turned over by the DOJ and released by the House Oversight Committee.
- Schnitt said the files would be heavily redacted to exclude Republicans and conservatives, leaving Democrats visible, and claimed Maxwell's transfer to minimum security violated policy to keep her quiet.
- The DOJ denied Schnitt's comments reflected reality, stating they showed a lack of knowledge of the review process and issuing an official apology, while Schnitt said his remarks were personal, based on media reports.
- These revelations intensified political pressure on the Trump administration amid calls for fuller transparency, with some lawmakers pushing to compel broader disclosure of Epstein files.
