Epstein Files Unsealed: The DOJ And The Epstein 2007 Florida Grand Jury Transcripts (Part 2)(12/29/25)

The grand jury transcripts from Operation Leap Year, convened in West Palm Beach in 2007, reveal a federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein that was far broader and more aggressive than the charges that ultimately emerged. Testimony before the grand jury laid out evidence suggesting a coordinated, multi-victim sex-trafficking scheme involving interstate conduct, recruitment of minors, and the use of intermediaries to facilitate abuse. Witnesses described a consistent pattern: underage girls being recruited, transported, and paid, with corroboration from victims, law enforcement, and supporting records. The scope reflected in the transcripts indicates prosecutors were examining serious federal felonies—far beyond the narrow state solicitation counts that Epstein later pleaded to.

What makes the transcripts especially significant is what happened next. Despite the gravity and breadth of evidence presented, the federal case was quietly shelved, and the investigation was effectively abandoned without a public accounting. The records underscore how the Department of Justice had a viable path to indict Epstein federally in 2007, a move that could have halted his abuse years earlier. Instead, the grand jury’s work was sealed, the investigation dissolved, and Epstein was routed into an unusually lenient state resolution. In hindsight, Operation Leap Year stands as documentary proof that the failure to prosecute was not due to lack of evidence—but to a decision to walk away from a fully developed federal case.
