Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox News that the Justice Department plans to make an initial batch of files available on Friday, with more documents to follow “over the next couple of weeks.”

Over the past year, tens of thousands of pages of documents have been made public, largely by a House committee that issued subpoenas to the Justice Department and Epstein’s estate.
