American Justice Department (DOJ) has removed thousands Documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein from his website, as victims said their identity had been compromised.
Lawyers of Epstein's victims said the flawed editings in the files released on Friday had “destroyed” the lives of nearly 100 survivors.
Email addresses and photos never to identify the names and faces of potential victims were included in the announcement.
Survivors issued a statement calling the discovery “scandalous” and said they should not be named “, examined and retraumatized”.
The Justice Department said it had removed all the records and that mistakes were due to “technical or human error”.
In a letter sent to a federal judge Monday, the Justice Department said: “All documents required by victims or lawyers to be removed until yesterday evening have been removed for further editing. ”
The department said it was continuing to review the new requirements, as well as to check whether there is any other document that may need further editing. A significant “number of independently identified documents have also been removed, he added.
Under the terms of publication, which was mandated after both of Congress's chambers approved a move that forced the Justice Department to publish the documents, the federal government had to edit details that could identify the victims. /Periscopi/
