Hillary Clinton Calls for Full Transparency in Epstein Records Dispute
In a renewed and highly public exchange, Hillary Clinton has criticized former President Donald Trump, accusing his administration of delaying the release of key documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaking to BBC while attending an international forum in Berlin, Clinton framed the issue as one of transparency, fairness, and public accountability.
Her remarks come amid heightened scrutiny over recently released materials tied to Epstein’s estate and investigations, which continue to raise questions about the scope of his associations with powerful figures.
“Get the Files Out”
During the interview, Clinton accused the Trump administration of delaying disclosures.
“Get the files out,” she said. “They are slow-walking it.”
She suggested that political motivations may be influencing how information is released, arguing that renewed attention toward her family was being used as a distraction.
“Look at this shiny object,” she said. “We’re going to have the Clintons — even Hillary Clinton, who never met the guy.”
Clinton has repeatedly stated that she never met Epstein and had no involvement in his activities. She also emphasized that neither she nor her husband has been accused of wrongdoing by survivors.
“We have nothing to hide,” she said. “We have called for the full release of these files repeatedly. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.”
Recent Release of Epstein Records
The United States Department of Justice has recently released large volumes of material connected to Epstein and related investigations.
These include:
Flight logs
Contact lists
Deposition transcripts
Internal correspondence
Officials and legal experts have stressed that appearing in such documents does not imply misconduct. Epstein maintained broad social and professional networks that included politicians, business leaders, academics, and entertainers.
