(Bloomberg) -- A group of undisclosed documents related to government investigations of Jeffrey Epstein can be made public under the 2025 law requiring release of the Epstein files, a federal judge ruled.
Preska ruled that the law, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, takes precedence over earlier orders in the case, grand jury secrecy and Maxwell's privacy claims.
The documents were originally turned over in a lawsuit by Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre, who sued Maxwell in 2015.
Giuffre also sued Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Britain's Prince Andrew, claiming Epstein "lent" her to him and to other powerful men for sex.
Epstein was charged with sex trafficking in July 2019 but died by suicide in a Manhattan prison cell before he could stand trial.
