Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has requested that her testimony in the ongoing congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein be released publicly, her legal team announced.
Clinton’s representatives said she believes transparency around her testimony would help clarify her account of interactions and communications involving Epstein and others connected to his network. The request aims to make the full transcript available to the public, rather than keeping it behind closed doors.
The former first lady and presidential candidate has previously acknowledged limited social interactions with Epstein in the past but has denied any involvement in his criminal activities. Her statement supporting public access to her testimony underscores a desire to address lingering questions directly.
Clinton’s call for openness comes amid broader political debate over the Epstein investigation, including disputes over document disclosures and testimony from high-profile individuals. As congressional committees continue their inquiry, the handling of testimony and records remains a central point of contention.
By urging that her statements be made public, Clinton is positioning herself at the center of discussions about accountability and transparency in the investigation. It remains to be seen whether congressional leaders will grant the request and when any public release might occur.
