Trump Won’t Recommend A Special Prosecutor In Epstein Case, White House Says

Trump Won’t Recommend A Special Prosecutor In Epstein Case, White House Says
SHARE

President Donald Trump will not recommend appointing a special prosecutor for the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, the late convicted sex offender. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated at a press briefing on Thursday that the president is against the idea of a special prosecutor for the Epstein case. The concept was suggested to him by someone in the media, but he does not support it.

Leavitt clarified that a special prosecutor is typically brought in when the main prosecutor has a conflict of interest or other biases that could affect the case’s impartiality. The Epstein case, including his death, criminal trial, investigations, and lawsuits known as “the Epstein files,” has been a contentious topic among many right-wingers. Some have demanded the release of these files and further investigation into Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking activities.

President Trump has had prior connections with Epstein, who passed away in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Despite previously claiming he would release the Epstein files, Trump has since changed his stance. Billionaire Elon Musk criticized Trump on social media, implying that Trump’s involvement in the Epstein files was the reason they were not made public.

Regarding the Justice Department and FBI’s recent statement that there is no evidence of an Epstein “client list” used for blackmail, they also announced they would not disclose any additional information. When asked if the White House could release the Epstein files with redactions, Leavitt mentioned that the decision lies with the Department of Justice and the judges overseeing the case, not the president.

Although Trump has tried to distance himself from the Epstein case, dismissing it as a hoax, he continues to face criticism from supporters and Republican colleagues who seek more transparency. Leavitt explained that Trump’s reference to the hoax pertains to Democrats seizing on the issue for political gain, despite their lack of action on transparency during their time in power.

While authorities did not find evidence to justify investigating uncharged third parties in the memo, they confirmed Epstein’s abuse of over 1,000 victims. The DOJ reviewed over 10,000 illicit videos and images involving child abuse material. Additionally, they provided 10 hours of video footage, with a missing minute, from Epstein’s prison cell before his death to demonstrate that he died by suicide.

There has been a lot of speculation from right-wing conspiracy theorists, including Trump, FBI Director Kash Patel, and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, suggesting that Epstein did not commit suicide but was possibly killed by powerful individuals trying to protect their secrets. This theory has raised doubts about the official narrative surrounding Epstein’s death.

In response to these conspiracy theories, a memo was released stating, “One of our highest priorities is combatting child exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of those ends.” This statement emphasizes the importance of focusing on the real issues at hand rather than getting caught up in speculation.

Interestingly, the memo contradicted Attorney General Pam Bondi’s claim on Fox News in February that she had obtained a list related to Epstein and was planning to review it based on a directive from President Trump. This discrepancy highlights the conflicting narratives surrounding Epstein’s case and the need for clarity and transparency in the investigation.
