A federal court in New York told John Solomon’s Just the News that the disclosure of unsealed documents in the civil case involving Jeffrey Epstein will commence on Wednesday.
The statement contradicts earlier news reports that the documents, which were expected to be made public on Tuesday, would be withheld for an additional thirty days.
According to a spokesperson for the Southern District of New York, prior information that the dissemination would be delayed until January 22 was unfounded. He stated that the highly anticipated document release is slated to commence today.
The spokesperson clarified that the release would only exclude the names of those who have requested the continued sealing of their personal information.
More than 175 identities of individuals mentioned in a civil suit filed by one of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims against Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, are anticipated to be exposed in the dump of unsealed documents.
It was previously reported by ABC News that former President Bill Clinton is identified as J. Doe 36 in the court documents. Additionally, the Wall Street Journal previously identified a number of individuals with whom Epstein met and interacted.
The recent filing in the case, in which Judge Loretta Preska granted a 30-day extension to one of the named parties, J. Doe 107, appears to be the source of the confusion regarding the timeline.\
Doe 107 requested her name remain redacted when the documents are unsealed because “she lives outside the United States in a culturally conservative country and lives in fear of her name being released,” according to the letter provided to the court by her attorney. The letter cited potential “risks of physical harm” to Doe 107 in her country.
The filing indicates that Judge Preska granted approval to the request.
“Doe 107’s request for a 30-day extension is approved. Doe 107 shall, by January 22, 2024, submit to the Court for in camera review an affidavit (1) supporting her assertion that she faces a risk of physical harm in her country of residence and (2) providing detail concerning the hate mail she has received,” Preska wrote.
While Doe 107 is not specifically referenced in Preska’s December 18 order to unseal the identities of the individuals involved in the case, the individual’s attorney stated in his letter that he intended to submit supplementary materials to bolster the case’s case-specific sealing of his clients’ information.
This individual petition will not impede the scheduled publication of the names, per SDNY.
