Description
Radar Online recently lost a long-running lawsuit against the FBI over its failure to release documents related to Jeffrey Epstein following a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. The case, Radar Online LLC v. FBI, was decided by Judge Paul G. Gardephe in the Southern District of New York. The court found that the FBI had properly withheld certain records under FOIA Exemption 3, which protects information prohibited from disclosure by another federal statute..The FBI cited three statutes to justify withholding the documents: the Child Victims’ and Child Witnesses’ Rights Act, the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Act, and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e), which protects the secrecy of grand jury proceedings. The court agreed that these statutes were valid grounds for exemption, especially to protect the privacy and safety of minor victims involved in Epstein's crimes. The court also upheld the FBI’s decision to withhold materials as attorney work product under Exemption 5, which protects documents prepared in anticipation of litigation.Meanwhile, transparency is once again trash binned by the government and by the court.(commercial at 11:19)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:FBI Wins Fight to Keep its Files on Jeffrey Epstein Secret (knewz.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
