U.S. Representative James Comey, chairman of the United States — United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, announced that the committee will hold congressional hearings for victims of Jeffrey Epstein. This decision follows a call from First Lady Melania Trump, who emphasized the need for public testimonies under oath. The committee's attorneys have been in contact with Jeffrey Epstein's victims, some of whom are willing to testify. These hearings are planned to occur after the completion of ongoing depositions, with additional high-profile witnesses expected. The issue has gained renewed attention after the United States — United States Department of Justice released millions of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, identifying over 1,200 victims.
