According to two sources familiar with the Justice Department’s plans, members of Congress will begin reviewing the unredacted Justice Department files related to Jeffrey Epstein on Monday morning.

According to a letter sent to members of Congress, the review process will take place in person at the Department of Justice. Members will be able to view the material on computers in DOJ offices but will not be able to examine physical documents.

The review will be limited to the 3 million files that are currently public and will not include the broader archive of more than 6 million documents that the Justice Department says it possesses.

Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie and Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna, co-authors of the law that led to the release of the Justice Department’s massive document archive, later that day wrote a letter to Blanche requesting access to the unredacted files.

Democrats on the Judiciary Committee also sent a letter to Blanche last week requesting the opportunity to review the material as soon as possible.

Attorney General Pam Bondi is expected to testify before the committee next Wednesday, and members want the opportunity to review the material before her testimony.

Epstein, who had political connections and was convicted of sex crimes, was charged in 2019 in Manhattan federal court with sexual exploitation of minors. While awaiting trial, he died in his jail cell, and his death was ruled a suicide.
