Lawyer: Partial Epstein files disclosure fuels speculation that DOJ 'is trying to protect somebody'

The US Justice Department has released a trove of documents related to the prosecution of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. US Representatives Ro Khanna (Democrat) and Thomas Massie (Republican) have been pressing for the release of the documents in accordance with the "Epstein Files Transparency Act," and say the recent release does not comply with the law. The release leaves out many documents in the DOJ's possession and is criticized by both Democratic and Republican lawmakers for redacting potentially valuable information.
