Donald Trump orders officials to release Epstein court documents after mounting pressure | BBC News


Donald Trump said he has ordered the justice department to produce additional documents related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

It’s unclear if Trump is authorising the public release of these documents, but such action would typically require the approval of a court.

It came shortly after Trump said he would sue The Wall Street Journal over an article alleging that a "bawdy" birthday greeting bearing Trump’s name was sent to Epstein in 2003, before the late financier was charged with sex crimes.

The letter, which the newspaper claims was sent on Epstein’s 50th birthday, has been decried by Trump as a "fake".

Epstein died in a New York prison cell in 2019 as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.
