When justice is redacted, women pay the price
The Epstein Files are not just about one man’s crimes, but about the systems that protected him and failed women — and girls — for decades.
Calls for the Epstein Files to be released have dominated headlines, fuelled presidential campaigns and instigated an Act of Congress mandating their release. Despite all that, to date only about one per cent of the millions of documents, photographs, videos and other evidence collected in several federal US FBI and Department of Justice investigations have seen the light of day.
American journalist and writer Amy Wallace collaborated with Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre on her memoir Nobody’s Girl, published months after her death, while British journalist Emily Maitlis famously put Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on the record about his involvement with Epstein’s dark world. Join them for a critically important discussion that looks beyond spectacle to examine the institutions that turned a blind eye, the lawsuits now seeking redress and what justice looks like when perpetrators evade consequences but survivors live with lasting harm.
