When Epstein was deposed in 2016 and was asked under oath if he ever socialized with Trump in the presence of minor girls, he claimed his Fifth Amendment right to not incriminate himself and refused to answer. (He invoked his Fifth Amendment rights at least 600 times during this deposition.)

For nearly 15 years, the two men socialized together in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Fla., before a falling out that preceded Mr. Epstein’s first arrest.

The Justice Department said unsealing grand jury transcripts related to Epstein's case is necessary given "longstanding and legitimate" public interest in the case.

Attorney General Pam Bondi 's top deputy, Todd Blanche, submitted the motion to unseal the Epstein transcripts, as well as those in the case against convicted British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, just one day after President Donald Trump publicly directed the department to take that step, Newsweek previously reported.

President Donald Trump has struggled to meet demands he helped stoked for information about Jeffrey Epstein's criminal case.

Amid the conspiracy theories, the totality of Epstein’s crimes—and how he made his fortune—is still a disturbing mystery.

Trump's post comes after the Justice Department asked federal judges to unseal the grand jury testimonies in the criminal case of Jeffrey Epstein.

Joy Behar speculates on "The View" podcast that Trump threatened Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship to shift media focus away from his controversial stance on the Jeffrey Epstein case.

Pam Bondi took office as Florida's first female attorney general in 2011. Epstein had gotten out of the Palm Beach County Jail two years earlier.

A Wall Street Journal report late Thursday added new scrutiny to President Donald Trump’s relationship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Under intense pressure from President Donald Trump’s own supporters, his administration now is asking a federal court to unseal secret documents related to Jeffrey Epstein’s case.

And speaking of going to court, Trump said Thursday night he will sue Rupert Murdoch and “his third rate newspaper,” the Wall Street Journal, for publishing what Trump says is a “FAKE” letter. The Journal reported that Trump sent the letter to Epstein in 2003 to be included in a commemorative book for Epstein’s 50th birthday.
