Lawyers Representing Epstein Survivors Go Scorched Earth On The DOJ In A Letter To The Court (11/28/25)

The lawyers representing survivors — including a firm called Edwards & Henderson — submitted a scathing filing to a federal judge after a recent release of documents tied to the Epstein estate revealed dozens of unredacted names of alleged victims, even including some who were minors at the time of abuse. The disclosure, made public via a release authorized by the House Oversight Committee, triggered “widespread panic” among survivors, who said the government had promised to shield their identities but instead exposed them. One survivor reportedly stated she had “been unable to mentally and emotionally function or sleep.”


In their letter the lawyers argued that the unredacted names couldn’t merely be a mistake — either the DOJ “does not know” all the identities of the victims and therefore cannot reliably redact them, or it “is intentionally failing to protect victims from public exposure.” They asked the court to require the DOJ to overhaul its review and redaction process, to ensure no further releases of sensitive documents occur before proper redactions are in place. Without that, they warned, survivors would remain at risk of further trauma, public shaming, and emotional distress.
