Several Epstein victims have said that they’ve scoured the DOJ’s website in recent weeks for files documenting their own interviews with the FBI – only to come up empty handed.
“All of us have been looking for our victim statements,” Jess Michaels, who was assaulted by Epstein when she was 22 years old, told CNN after the file release. Heavily redacted and missing interview reports suggest that “this Department of Justice is actually gaslighting the entire country,” Michaels argued.

According to one of the victims of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, a series of emails and the record of an interview she gave with an FBI agent dating back to 2019 is nowhere to be found in what Attorney General Pam Bond’s Department of Justice has released.
Appearing on MS NOW’s “The Weekend,“ Epstein survivor Jess Michaels, who sat in the gallery as Bondi testified on Tuesday before the House Judiciary Committee, said she has not heard from the DOJ and has had to ask for outside helphelp in tracking down the trail of documents she provided to the FBI.

When the first wave of Epstein files appeared online, survivor Jess Michaels didn‘t look for revelations — she searched for her own name.
She clicked and scrolled for hours, trawling for recognisable details of her own abuse suffered at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein. But she found nothing.
„It was exactly what we expected,“ she said.
