Epstein Survivors Demand Transparency
They came to Washington not as props for anyone’s storyline,
but as survivors determined to reclaim their voices. Jess Michaels,
Wendy Avis, Marijke Chartouni, Jena-Lisa Jones, Lisa Phillips, and Liz Stein
stood shoulder to shoulder, their presence a living rebuke to the systems that protected Jeffrey Epstein for years.
They demanded full transparency: the release of more federal files,
the exposure of enablers, and a real reckoning with the power structures that let a predator thrive in plain sight.
What they refused to do was just as powerful.
When invited to endorse unverified claims tying Donald Trump to Epstein,
they declined, insisting that justice must be rooted in evidence, not partisan wish-casting.
Their stance cut against the media script some had hoped to write,
but it honored something far more important: the truth of their own stories,
and the memory of those, like Virginia Giuffre, who are no longer here to speak.
