Washington (International Desk) Former U.S. President Bill Clinton has called for the immediate release of all remaining records related to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, stressing that no individual should be shielded from scrutiny.
According to international media reports, Clinton—without directly naming Donald Trump—remarked that the selective manner in which documents are being released creates the impression that certain figures are being protected.
Clinton’s spokesperson, Angel Ureña, issued the statement to the press, noting that under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, it is a legal obligation to make the complete and uncensored records available to the public. He added that the way documents have been disclosed so far has fueled suspicion and doubts.
This comes shortly after the U.S. Department of Justice released thousands of documents and photographs linked to the Epstein case. Among them are images showing Clinton aboard Epstein’s private jet and at private gatherings, though the faces of women in the photos have been obscured. Other pictures depict Clinton dining with Epstein and rock legend Mick Jagger.
Clinton has repeatedly denied any involvement in Epstein’s underage sex trafficking network, maintaining that he severed all ties with Epstein once his crimes came to light.
Meanwhile, both Bill and Hillary Clinton have been issued subpoenas by the House Oversight Committee as part of ongoing investigations into Epstein’s connections, with hearings scheduled for January.
Background on the Epstein Scandal
– Jeffrey Epstein was a U.S. billionaire financier known for his ties to influential politicians, business leaders, and celebrities.
– In 2008, he was convicted of sex crimes involving underage girls but received a lenient sentence despite the severity of the charges.
– In 2019, Epstein was arrested again on charges of sex trafficking minors, a case that implicated several powerful figures and drew global attention.
– Weeks after his arrest, Epstein was found dead in a New York jail cell. His death was officially ruled a suicide, though questions and conspiracy theories persist to this day.
