Epstein Files to Be Released, Bondi Announces: "It’s Pretty Sick."
Pam Bondi, former Florida Attorney General, announced that the Department of Justice will release more documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein this Thursday.
Speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters, Bondi described the files as “pretty sick,” emphasizing that their release would offer new insights into Epstein’s disturbing criminal activities.
"These Documents Will Make You Sick"
Bondi’s statement comes after mounting pressure from both sides of the political spectrum to declassify the files, including Epstein’s alleged client list. Bondi revealed that the files have been sitting on her desk for some time and would be made public with redactions to protect the identities of his victims.
She shared that over 250 victims have been documented so far, a figure she described as likely to “make you sick.”
As Bondi explained to Watters, “We have to make sure that their identity is protected and their personal information,” alluding to the sensitive nature of the documents. “I think tomorrow, Jesse – breaking news right now – you’re going to see some Epstein information being released by my office.”
What Will Be Released: Flight Logs, Names, and More
Bondi further revealed that the release would include flight logs, names, and "a lot of information." This disclosure is sure to shed light on the web of connections Epstein cultivated and the powerful people allegedly involved.
The Department of Justice's release of these documents marks a new chapter in the ongoing investigation into Epstein’s activities and his network of enablers.
“It’s pretty sick what that man did… along with his co-defendant,” Bondi concluded, reiterating the horrific nature of Epstein’s crimes.
Bipartisan Pressure to Declassify Epstein Files
The release of Epstein-related documents has long been a point of contention in the U.S. political landscape. Lawmakers across party lines have been vocal in calling for the full declassification of materials linked to Epstein’s criminal enterprise.
Among the leading voices in this push are Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna and Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert.
Luna, who was appointed to lead a task force dedicated to increasing government transparency, has been instrumental in advocating for the release of these files.
She took to social media this week to express her frustration with Bondi’s office, posting on X : “Reaching out on X because we can’t seem to get a response from the AG,” she tweeted Tuesday. “@AGPamBondi what is the status of the documents? These documents were ordered to be declassified.”
Luna’s calls for transparency have been echoed by Rep. Lauren Boebert, who also posted on X, stating: “Today would be a great day for @AGPamBondi to release the Epstein Files. The truth will set us free!”
Today would be a great day for @AGPamBondi to release the Epstein Files.

Trump’s Legacy and the Push for Transparency
The pressure to release the Epstein documents comes in the wake of former President Donald Trump’s commitment to government transparency. During his campaign, Trump expressed an interest in releasing files related to Epstein.
Following his inauguration, Trump signed an executive order calling on agencies to devise plans for distributing federal secrets and increasing transparency within the government.
Although Trump’s role in the Epstein case has sparked speculation, Bondi’s announcement ties directly into the promises made during his administration, as well as the ongoing efforts to fulfill them.
Calls for Broader Declassification
The demand for Epstein’s files is not only part of a broader movement for transparency but is also connected to other major historical investigations. Rep. Luna, who has been spearheading the task force, has made it clear that releasing Epstein’s documents is just one part of a larger push to uncover secrets about other high-profile events, including the September 11 attacks, the assassination of JFK, and the origins of COVID-19.
Furthermore, Luna’s team is investigating other government-related mysteries, such as the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and even UFOs.
The task force, led by Luna, is taking a wide-ranging approach to address what she refers to as “an era of secrecy” in U.S. government history.
A Long-Awaited Step in the Epstein Investigation
The documents set to be released this Thursday are expected to play a crucial role in the ongoing investigation into Epstein’s criminal network.
The DOJ’s decision to make these files public aligns with an effort to offer closure to victims, expose powerful individuals who may have been complicit in Epstein’s crimes, and increase public awareness about the full scope of Epstein’s activities.
The ongoing scrutiny of Epstein’s life and crimes continues to spark debates across the nation, with many still wondering what further revelations will come to light. The release of these files could provide a glimpse into the workings of an international sex trafficking network that involved some of the most powerful individuals in the world.
As Pam Bondi’s office prepares for the release of Epstein’s files, the public awaits what could be a pivotal moment in the case.
The documents are poised to offer significant new information, but they also highlight the darker realities of Epstein’s life and the institutions that may have enabled his crimes.
With lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle rallying for transparency, and the nation’s top law enforcement officials taking action, the Epstein case is far from over.
As the world awaits the release of these documents, one thing is certain – the impact of the case will continue to reverberate across politics, law, and society for years to come.
