Story summary

On November 10, 2026, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee released a final 137-page report concluding that former President Donald Trump was not involved in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operation. The committee criticized repeated failures by law enforcement and federal prosecutors over years that allowed Epstein's abuse to continue. The report also highlighted serious prison security lapses but did not overturn the official suicide finding regarding Epstein's death in 2019. Democrats on the committee, like Robert Garcia, argued that the investigation was incomplete without public hearings.
