The Supervisory Committee of the US Congress of the US Congress on Tuesday applied for publication of investigative documents in the case of sex delinction Jeffrey Epstein. He also summoned several current and former high -ranking government officials, including ex -president Bill Clinton and his wife, former Foreign Minister Hillary Clinton. TASR informs about this, referring to DPA and AFP.
The Committee of the House of Representatives has a wide range of powers and can start an investigation. It is currently dominated by Republicans. Hillary Clinton received a summons from the chairman of the James Committee on October 9, Bill Clinton on October 14.
Calls for interrogations
There were also several former justice ministers, including Jeff Sessions and Merric Garland, as well as former directors of the Federal Investigation Office (FBI) Robert Mueller and James Comey. According to US media, these hearing will be non -public.
The Minister of Justice Pam Bondi’s Committee asked to submit documents concerning the case by August 19. According to the Committee, the aim is to progress in an investigation into the case of the sexual delinquency of Jeffrey Epstein, who died in prison in 2019.
Epstein and his contacts
Epstein billionaire has been accused of being systematically abusing minors. In August 2019, according to official claims at the age of 66, he married life in his prison cell. His former collaborator Ghislaine Maxwell in 2021 was sentenced to 20 years in prison for trading with minors for sexual abuse and other crimes.
Epstein’s death caused a stir in the US because he maintained contacts with many rich and influential people. These included the current US President Donald Trump, who promised to publish Epstein’s investigative files during his election campaign, but he still did not.
Comer, in a letter to ex -president Clinton (from 1993-2001), said that, in his own words, he flew four times a private plane by Jeffrey Epstein four times. “During one of these roads, you even photographed you from getting a” massage “from one of Mr. Epstein’s victims,” Comer stressed.
The names of Clinton, Trump and many other politicians and celebrities have appeared in the previously published Epstein affairs documents. Neither Clinton nor Trump were accused of anything. A spokesman for Clinton said in 2019 that the ex -president had no contact with Epstein for more than ten years, and his crimes knew nothing.
A secret list of clients
Surprisingly, the US Department of Justice announced that it would not disclose any other files on this case. Previously, this was the expectation of Trump’s supporters that there was a secret “list of clients” Epstein.
