Attorney Gloria Allred told Newsmax on Friday that the time has come when all files relating to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein “should be made public.”
Allred, who represents more than two dozen clients who say they were abused by Epstein and his powerful friends, told “American Agenda” that “It’s the one issue that it seems that the majority of the public, no matter their political party or beliefs, agrees that all of the files should be made public.”
She explained that one of the reasons why victims have not publicly named their abusers is based on legal protections. “If they say, you know, Mr. X, Mr. Y, using their real names, sexually abused me, raped me, sexually assaulted me, trafficked me, when I was a child, sexually, then they can be sued by the person they named, who may allege that they were defamed.”
Some alleged perpetrators have been named by members of Congress, thinking that what they say is protected. But Allred said that may still open up a victim who provided the name of the perpetrator for a lawsuit.
Allred said there are lots of suspicious events and circumstances surrounding the Epstein case, including one of the most basic, involving Epstein’s death while he was being detained. “Was it suicide? Was it homicide?”
She said it’s time to open the files and let the pieces fall where they may. “Let’s remove that cloud. Let’s just see all the files,” she said. “Let’s see what’s in there. If there’s anyone else, third parties that need to be held accountable from a criminal point of view or a civil point of view or both, let’s have at it.”
Epstein’s girlfriend and accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted in 2021 for sex trafficking minors and sentenced to 20 years, is serving her time at a minimum-security federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas, after being transferred there in August.
She recently gave DOJ interviews denying wrongdoing and casting doubt on Epstein’s manner of death. Maxwell is appealing her conviction to the U.S. Supreme Court while also seeking clemency, with President Donald Trump hinting a pardon could be possible.
