The Department of Justice has refuted a rape accusation against President Donald Trump that surfaced in the latest release of the Epstein files, labeling it as “untrue and sensationalist.” Within over 11,000 recently disclosed files, the FBI case file (EFTA00020518) dated October 2020 contains an allegation of rape implicating Trump.
In a redacted document, an unnamed woman claimed in an interview that “he raped me,” referring to Donald Trump, and alleged that “Donald J. Trump had raped her alongside Jeffrey Epstein.” The accuser’s identity remains concealed as all personal details have been redacted.
Responding swiftly, the Department of Justice dismissed the rape claim as baseless and false, asserting that if there was any credibility to the allegations, they would have been exploited against President Trump already. They emphasized that the accusations were both “untrue and sensationalist.”
Trump, addressing concerns about individuals photographed with Epstein, voiced his frustration during an event at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida. He maintained his innocence regarding any misconduct in his interactions with Jeffrey Epstein, stating that many respectable figures innocently encountered Epstein in the past.
