European Investigators Say America Is Stonewalling Epstein Requests (9/10/26)

Law-enforcement agencies in at least five European countries reportedly said the U.S. Justice Department had failed to respond to formal requests for assistance as they pursued investigations stemming from the expanding Jeffrey Epstein record. Officials in Poland, Norway, Latvia, the United Kingdom and Germany told The Washington Post that they had sought help through mutual legal assistance requests, the established process governments use to obtain evidence, records or testimony located in another country. According to the reporting, those requests remained unanswered even as investigators abroad examined people, financial connections and other parts of Epstein’s international network. The silence became especially striking because the United States possessed the largest collection of Epstein investigative material in the world, yet foreign authorities trying to follow leads generated by those records were reportedly still waiting for cooperation.

The episode added another layer to criticism of the Justice Department’s handling of Epstein-related transparency and accountability. While millions of pages have been released in the United States, foreign investigators were reportedly trying to turn information in those files into active investigative work and needed American evidence to do it. The unanswered requests raised obvious questions about whether potentially important international leads were being stalled simply because the DOJ was not providing the material or assistance required to move them forward. That contrast was difficult to ignore: European governments were asking the United States for help investigating Epstein’s global connections, while the country that prosecuted Epstein and Maxwell and held much of the underlying evidence was allegedly not even answering them.
