Former Attorney General Pam Bondi told the House Oversight Committee on Friday that then-Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche was in charge of the Justice Department’s botched release of the Jeffrey Epstein files and acknowledged that there were “redaction errors” in the handling of documents, according to Bondi’s opening statement obtained by MS NOW.

“As the head of a large Department with broad responsibilities, I did not lead every aspect of this effort or conduct that document review myself,” Bondi said in her prepared remarks. “I delegated oversight over this process to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.” Blanche was named acting attorney general in April after Bondi was fired by President Donald Trump.
