'Focus On Clinton': US President Donald Trump's Big Statement On Epstein Allegations (VIDEO)

US President Donald Trump made a big statement related to the Epstein files on Friday. Trump said that those asking about the late financier Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking case should direct their attention to former President Bill Clinton, reported Fox News. 

Trump speaking to reporters outside the White House, was questioned about the Epstein Files. Trump maintained his stance, rejecting the allegations of his involvement in the Epstein Files and blaming Bill Clinton. He even claimed that he never went to Epstein's private island Little St. James.

“You should focus on Clinton. You should focus on the former President of Harvard. You should focus on some of the hedge fund guys. I will give you a list. These guys lived with Jeffrey Epstein. I sure as hell didn't," Trump said.

What are the Epstein Files?

The 'Epstein files' are a vast collection of evidence gathered across multiple cases involving Jeffrey Epstein and his associates, including Ghislaine Maxwell. The materials range from witness statements and financial records to personal diaries and flight logs from Epstein’s private jet, infamously nicknamed the 'Lolita Express'.

While some records have been made public, many remain under the seal. Conspiracy theories persist that authorities are withholding files to protect high-profile figures. Legal experts, however, caution that being named in the files does not equate to criminal conduct.

US Attorney-General Pam Bondi confirmed in May that the FBI was reviewing “tens of thousands” of documents and would release them in phases, following appropriate redactions to protect victims and investigations. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Fox News that more materials were expected "within weeks".

Who was Jeffery Epstein?

Jeffrey Epstein was a financier with deep connections in elite circles, ranging from Wall Street to Buckingham Palace. In 2008, he was convicted in Florida for soliciting sex from a minor in a controversial plea deal that allowed him to serve just over a year in custody, largely on work release.

Donald Trump and Epstein moved in the same social circles throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. They were photographed together at multiple events, including at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, as per reports.
