The Donald Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case has long been criticized by the public in general, but it turns out the victims also feel like something is lacking. The victims have moved beyond just asking for justice in regard to the actual crimes, but also the crime of the cover-up by the Department of Justice — and when AG Pam Bondi refused to even face them at the latest hearing, some victims are now calling the move degrading.
Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing about the latest Epstein developments was highly contentious. At a certain point, Rep. Jamie Raskin accused Bondi of covering up the Epstein crimes when she corroborated Trump’s claim that it was all just a Democratic hoax — to which Bondi responded by calling him a “washed-up, loser lawyer.” When Rep. Ted Lieu tried to corner her about Trump’s knowledge of Epstein’s conduct, Bondi retorted that he should be more focused on California crime rates.
