Nov. 12 (UPI) -- Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Wednesday released emails between convicted sex traffickers Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell that mentioned President Donald Trump.

The correspondence, released by Rep. Robert Garcia, ranking Democrat on the committee, also includes emails between Epstein and Michael Wolff, an author who has written four books about the Trump presidency.

While at least one of the references is somewhat cryptic in its reference to Trump, others more openly appear to discuss what the president knew about Epstein's scheme to bring women and underage girls to his private island for his friends to sexually abuse.

"The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover," Garcia said in a statement accompanying the released emails. "These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the president.

"The Department of Justice must fully release the Epstein files to the public immediately. The Oversight Committee will continue pushing for answers and will not stop until we get justice for the victims.
