Overview
The House Oversight Committee, led by Chair James Comer, has issued subpoenas to the Justice Department for records concerning the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation.
These subpoenas specifically target depositions and files involving former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other high-profile officials.
Former FBI directors James Comey and Robert Mueller, along with Attorneys General from three administrations, including Eric Holder and William Barr, were also subpoenaed.
The Justice Department faces an August 19 deadline to submit the requested Epstein records, with an amendment approved to redact victims' personally identifiable information.
Lawmakers from both parties are actively pursuing the Epstein investigation, as Bill Clinton denies visiting Epstein's island and Ghislaine Maxwell serves a 20-year sentence.
