"Victims of Jeffrey Epstein File Lawsuit Against FBI for Alleged Cover-Up"

Twelve victims of Jeffrey Epstein have filed a lawsuit against the FBI, alleging that the agency covered up its failure to investigate the late financier, enabling his sex trafficking operation to continue for over 20 years. The victims, using pseudonyms, claim that the FBI received credible tips about Epstein's activities as early as 1996 but failed to take action. The lawsuit seeks damages from the U.S. government and highlights FBI Director Christopher Wray's promise to provide more information about the agency's handling of the case. Epstein's victims had previously reached settlements totaling approximately $500 million, but it is unclear whether the 12 plaintiffs received compensation from those settlements.
