Former Attorney General Pam Bondi is appearing before House lawmakers investigating Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse cases. Bondi will answer questions Friday on how she oversaw the botched release of case files on the disgraced financier. Bondi was defiant when she was the attorney general and lawmakers confronted her in congressional hearings about her handling of the Epstein investigation. Friday's transcribed Bondi interview gives lawmakers an opportunity to press for details on how President Donald Trump's Republican administration has handled the Epstein files as well as the prison sentence of Epstein's former girlfriend and confidant, Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by Epstein but insists she’s innocent.
