US Justice Department can unseal records from Epstein’s 2019 sex trafficking case, judge says

Secret grand jury transcripts from Jeffrey Epstein's 2019 sex trafficking case can be made public, a US judge has ruled, joining two other judges in granting the Justice Department's requests to unseal material from investigations into the late financier's sexual abuse.

Jeffrey Epstein was a notorious child sex trafficker and friend to many powerful people. (US Attorney of the Southern D...

Netanyahu submits request for pardon during ongoing corruption trial

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has asked the country's president to grant him a pardon from corruption charges — seeking to end a long-running trial that has bitterly divided the nation. Netanyahu, who has been at war against the country's legal system over the charges, said the request would help unify the country at a time of momentous changes in the region. But it immediately triggered denunciations from his opponents, who said it would weaken Israel's democratic institutions and send a dangerous message that he is above the rule of law.

US Supreme Court rejects appeal from Ghislaine Maxwell, imprisoned former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein

The US Supreme Court has rejected an appeal from Ghislaine Maxwell, the imprisoned former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein. On Monday (early Tuesday AEDT), the first day of their new term, the justices declined to take up a case that would have drawn renewed attention to the sordid sexual-abuse saga after President Donald Trump's administration sought to tamp down criticism over its refusal to publicly release more investigative files from Epstein's case.
