Judge Refuses to Release Epstein Grand Jury Records, Citing Victim Safety

The judge explained that releasing the transcripts could place those who testified at risk, especially the individuals who spoke out about their experiences. Protecting their privacy and safety, the court ruled, outweighs the public’s demand for further information at this time.
