Epstein files series:
Epstein files released with heavy redactions as thousands more documents expected
Summary
The US justice department has released a tranche of some of the so-called Epstein files, including photos of the interiors of Jeffrey Epstein's homes, his overseas travels and celebrities - here's what we've learned so far
A new data set shared publicly this morning contains redacted court documents and testimonies from alleged victims of the disgraced financier
The extensive redactions have been criticised by Democrats for violating the transparency law, but the justice department says it has "erred on the side of redacting to protect victims" - what's been withheld and why?
The files shed little light on Epstein's network but intensify scrutiny of the Trump administration's handling of the affair, writes North America correspondent Peter Bowes
Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Richard Branson are among the famous faces in the files - who has been pictured?
Being named or pictured in the files is not an indication of wrongdoing. Many of those identified in other releases have denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein
Epstein accuser Maria Farmer, whose 1996 complaint to the FBI is included in the files, tells the BBC: "I feel redeemed... I am shedding tears of joy, but also tears of sorrow for all the other victims"
