Former General Pam Bondi defended the Justice Department's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files Friday during a closed-door interview with the House Oversight Committee on Friday, acknowledging mistakes in the release but insisting the Trump administration delivered on its promise of transparency.
Bondi's appearance on Capitol Hill marked one of the most closely watched moments in Congress' continuing probe into how the government handled records tied to Epstein, the disgraced financier who died in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
