Epstein Files: Whitehouse Questions FBI Chief Kash Patel Over 37 Missing Pages From Record

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse questioned FBI Director Kash Patel over the handling and disclosure of records linked to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Whitehouse pressed Patel over his earlier grand jury testimony, Epstein-related financial activity and investigative requests from law-enforcement agencies in several countries. The hearing also focused on FBI 302 interview summaries concerning allegations involving Donald Trump, with Whitehouse questioning whether 37 undisclosed pages could contain contemporaneous investigative notes. Patel defended the Justice Department’s document-release process, saying disclosure laws and court orders had been followed and that more than 3.5 million pages had been released.
