Allegations in Epstein files may amount to 'crimes against humanity,' UN experts say
UN experts highlight over 1,200 identified victims and call for impartial investigations into a systematic, transnational network of exploitation detailed in Epstein files.
- On Tuesday, UN-appointed experts warned that abuses in Epstein files could meet the crimes-against-humanity threshold, based on a statement responding to US government disclosures.
- A bipartisan law passed in November required Epstein-related files be made public, and experts said the records describe commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls within a transnational network.
- Over 1,200 victims have been identified in the documents, which reveal Epstein's ties to influential figures and expose redaction failures that revealed sensitive victim information; Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to more than 20 years.
