A new investigation examining emails sent between federal investigators and prosecutors has raised fresh doubts over the Department of Justice’s claim that it has released the full cache of Jeffrey Epstein files, suggesting the material made public amounts to just 2% of the data gathered by federal agents.

Channel 4 News reported that internal emails seen by its journalists show federal investigators expected to process between 20 and 40 terabytes of data seized from Epstein’s properties, including his Florida mansion, New York townhouse, and private island.

The broadcaster added that emails between investigators discussed the data “totaling” up to 50 terabytes from the “earliest stages” in June 2020.

In another internal email from 2025, the report continued, officials said that they were “looking at approximately 14.6 terabytes of archived data.”

    They have released alllllll the files…that they can get away with releasing.

    I think they’ve only released the least damaging actual “documents/files”

    They are holding the ones that outright depict powerful men and women abusing their power. (Yes even sexually.) and also holding things like videos and auto “files” 14 terabytes of data isn’t just emails and forms. There’s probably evidence in there so damaging Trump and anyone else involved would be shot on the Whitehouse steps if any rational person knew the truth.

    So what’s the possibility that they can delete all the files so that the next administration doesn’t have them? Is it possible at all?
