Newly released DOJ Epstein files include a 2019 FBI interview in which former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter said Donald Trump called him July 2006 to report Jeffrey Epstein’s activities. Reiter quoted Trump as saying, “Thank goodness you’re stopping him; everyone has known he’s been doing this,” urging investigators to focus on Ghislaine Maxwell and calling her “evil.” Reiter said Trump told him he “got the hell out” when teenagers were present and ejected Epstein from Mar‑a‑Lago. The files, released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and an FBI denial about the call, have renewed scrutiny of Trump’s statements. (documentcloud.org)
