The case surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, who was accused of sexually assaulting underage girls and died on August 10, 2019, continues to have repercussions more than six years later. According to Ming Pao, several high-profile individuals linked to Epstein have been exposed, but only Prince Andrew, the brother of King Charles III, has faced legal consequences and paid settlements.
The situation has been further complicated by political dynamics in the United States. Under the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, the case has been used as a tool by both the Democratic and Republican parties to target their opponents. The U.S. Department of Justice, which is under Trump's influence, has released over three million pages of documents related to the case. However, the release has been criticized for being incomplete, as the department claims it is protecting the identities of the victims.
