Washington — House Speaker Mike Johnson said there will not be a vote before Congress' August recess on a resolution that calls on the Trump administration to release more files related to child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Alan Dershowitz urged the government to grant Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend immunity so that she can testify about his crimes.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has cited the release of the 2006 Florida transcripts in her request for grand jury materials from a federal court.

The Justice Department said unsealing grand jury transcripts related to Epstein's case is necessary given "longstanding and legitimate" public interest in the case.

Epstein pleaded guilty to state charges for soliciting prostitution and soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008, but was hit with additional federal charges in 2019 before his death.

President Trump late Thursday ordered the Justice Department to seek the release of grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein.
