A Timeline of the Jeffrey Epstein Investigation
UNITED STATES, JUL 19 – Trials and document releases renew scrutiny on Epstein's sex trafficking network amid calls for transparency and justice for dozens of underage victims, legal experts say.
- Amid lingering scrutiny, the Trump administration asked a federal court to unseal grand jury transcripts related to Epstein's case, in an effort to put a political crisis to rest.
- After weeks of criticism, President Donald Trump wrote on TruthSocial calling for the release of all grand jury testimony with respect to Jeffrey Epstein.
- Records show that in 2005, authorities began investigating Epstein, and he pleaded guilty in 2008 to solicitation of prostitution under a deal brokered by then-U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta.
- In response, a judge refused the request to unseal Florida grand jury transcripts, while similar petitions in New York cases remain pending.
- In Congress, pressure grew as a House Oversight subcommittee voted to subpoena the Justice Department for Epstein files, and Senate Democratic whip Dick Durbin alleged the FBI was told to `flag` any files relating to Trump.
