The justice department plans to release the long-awaited files related to Jeffrey Epstein as required by a new law, but not all documents would be published on Friday, an official says.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has said they expect to publish "several hundred thousand pages", and then over the next few weeks, "several hundred thousand more".
The Friday deadline was mandated by a bill that got near-unanimous support in Congress, and was later signed into law by President Donald Trump after he reversed his earlier stance opposing its release.
The files will include investigations into the disgraced late sex offender, but it's likely that much of the content will be heavily redacted.
"Today is the 30 days when I expect that we're going to release several hundred thousand documents today," Blanche told Fox & Friends. "And those documents will come in in all different forms, photographs and other materials associated with, with all of the investigations into, into Mr. Epstein."
