Judge Orders DOJ to Unredact Epstein Files

A federal judge has slapped the DOJ with a deadline to release unredacted Epstein documents—or explain why they can’t—after a journalist sued over hidden records. The judge demands key materials like emails, a draft indictment, and FBI notes, citing the newly passed Epstein Files Transparency Act. The lawsuit, led by journalist Katie Phang, argues redactions violate the law and hinder public reporting. The DOJ tried to dismiss the case, but the judge ruled Phang has standing and the redactions are unlawful. With no public comment yet from the DOJ, this ruling could be a major win for transparency in one of America’s most scrutinized investigations.
