The Trump administration, which has its own reasons for not wanting the files made public, are taking active steps to hamper the process.
U.S. President Donald Trump has signed legislation to force the Justice Department to make public its case files on the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, but should the American people expect justice to prevail?
To get some idea how far some politicians - American politicians, no less - will go to protect their dalliances spilling into the public realm, consider that on August 20, 1998, the exact day that Monica Lewinsky was scheduled to appear before a grand jury and testify about her affair with then President and Commander-in-Chief Bill Clinton, the United States military obliterated a medicine plant in distant Sudan, announcing that it belonged to Al Qaeda.
