Attorney General Pam Bondi made FBI agents trawl through about 100,000 investigative files relating to child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and “flag” any that mentioned Donald Trump, according to a top Democrat.
According to information received by Durbin, whose committee oversees the Justice Department, Bondi “pressured the FBI” to put about 1,000 personnel in its Information Management Division on 24-hour shifts to review Epstein-related records.
The effort reportedly took place from March 14 to the end of March, and was “haphazardly supplemented by hundreds of FBI New York Field Office personnel, many of whom lacked the expertise to identify statutorily-protected information regarding child victims and child witnesses or properly handle FOIA requests,” Durbin said.
