00:00Well, it really raises questions on the redaction methods they've been using, right?
00:04Because survivors and victims are also criticizing the Department of Justice for heavily redacting the Epstein files, as you said here.
00:12But on the contrary, perhaps protecting enablers, abusers, saying it's a slap in the face.
00:19So tell us why.
00:21Absolutely. I think their method of redacting is not even reliable.
00:26There's even been some documents where the black text that's been redacted, either the box can be moved or the text can be copied.
00:34And it is a slap in the face because victims have been asking for transparency, for accountability, for justice.
00:41And there are things in the files that they want to see.
00:44They want to see good faith efforts from the FBI to investigate any reports regarding Jeffrey Epstein and his illicit activities.
00:53They want to see that any tips, any credible tips were followed up on.
00:57They want to see that co-conspirators are being investigated and then potentially prosecuted.
01:03Any decisions made to prosecute or not prosecute Epstein?
01:06What was the rationale?
01:08What evidence did the FBI or our agencies use to determine to offer Epstein things like that sweetheart deal?
01:14So it's a slap in the face that there's actual substantive information that our victims are looking for in those files.
01:21And yet there's just a bunch of documents that are completely redacted.
01:25We don't know what they are because the DOJ has not released a privilege log showing us under what privileges they're redacting those documents.
01:32And on top of that, their information is now made available to the public.
