  • Europe wants the Epstein files. The DOJ isn’t answering. European investigators pursuing potential crimes connected to Jeffrey Epstein say the U.S. Justice Department has failed to respond to formal requests for evidence and unredacted records. Poland, Norway and Latvia say requests for U.S. legal assistance remain unanswered. British authorities have reportedly faced the same problem while investigating allegations connected to former ambassador Peter Mandelson. The Epstein files were released to expose what happened. European prosecutors would now quite like to investigate what happened.
