Here is what to expect from the major update in the Jeffrey Epstein case set to drop later today (27 February).
Donald Trump's new Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed that she would be releasing highly sought after information in involving Epstein's charges for sex trafficking.
The 66-year-old disgraced financier had taken his life while in custody awaiting trial for charges related to child sex-trafficking back in 2019.

Bondi had previously revealed that numerous documents, including flight logs and the infamous 'client list' of people, were currently sitting on her desk after being sworn into the role as Attorney General by President Donald Trump and that they would be released once the names of victims had been redacted.
"There are well over – this will make you sick – 200 victims … over 250, actually," she told Fox News host Jesse Watters yesterday, when asked about the delay in releasing the documents.
"So, we have to make sure that their identity is protected and their personal information, but other than that, I think tomorrow - you know, the personal information of victims - other than that, I think tomorrow, Jesse, breaking news, right now, you’re going to see some Epstein information being released by my office," Bondi added.

Bondi was then pressed on what information we could expect to see released to the public, to which she confirmed that flight logs and a 'lot of' names would be shared
"What you’re going to see, hopefully tomorrow, is a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot, a lot of information," Bondi said of the update.
"But, it’s pretty sick what that man did … along with his co-defendant."
The co-defendant Boni is referring to is Ghislaine Maxwell, who was charged with sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022 after being convicted for her role in helping Epstein abuse young girls.
Prior to being charged with running a sex trafficking ring targeting young girls, financier Epstein had been a known associate of numerous famous faces.
Bondi's decision to release the files comes after public pressure from politicians who questioned why she appeared to be hesitating over the decision.

"Reaching out on X because we can’t seem to get a response from the AG. @AGPamBondi what is the status of the documents," Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna wrote on X. "These documents were ordered to be declassified."
"The AG still not releasing the EPSTEIN FILES is weird and raises the question of who she might be protecting," Democrat Representative Ilhan Omar wrote.
