Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a fiery letter to FBI Director Kash Patel Thursday accusing federal investigators in New York of withholding thousands of pages of Jeffrey Epstein documents she has vowed to make public.
Bondi said she had requested the full Epstein case file before Patel was confirmed as the head of the FBI and received about 200 pages of files – far less than the number of pages released last year in a civil lawsuit connected to Ghislaine Maxwell, the trafficker’s former lover and convicted accomplice.
“I repeatedly questioned whether this was the full set of documents responsive to my request and was repeatedly assured by the FBI that we had received the full set of documents,” Bondi wrote. “Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of Epstein.”

Sensitive information about the victims will still be redacted before anything is publicly released, she added. She also ordered an internal investigation into the issue and told Patel to propose “personnel action” within two weeks.
Bondi said previously that a batch of Epstein-related documents would be released sometime Thursday afternoon.

It was not expected to contain much new information, however.
