Mega Edition: Denise George And The Aggressive Attempt To Get Sealed Epstein Records (12/14/25)

Denise George, during her tenure as Attorney General of the U.S. Virgin Islands, pushed aggressively to keep certain Epstein-related records sealed as she built a wide-ranging investigation into Epstein’s criminal network and the financial infrastructure that supported it. Her position wasn’t about protecting Epstein—it was about preserving the integrity of an active, highly sensitive investigation involving powerful institutions, international financial flows, and potential co-conspirators who had not yet been publicly named. George argued repeatedly in court filings that premature disclosure of subpoenas, deposition transcripts, banking records, and witness identities could alert targets, jeopardize evidence, and compromise ongoing law-enforcement efforts. She maintained that the scope of Epstein’s activity in the USVI was deeper and more complex than previously understood, and that investigators needed the shield of sealed records to pursue leads without interference.


At the same time, George’s insistence on sealing certain documents reflected her awareness that the investigation threatened politically connected figures in the Virgin Islands and beyond. She sought to prevent leaks that could give advance warning to individuals who might destroy documents, move assets, or coordinate stories. Her critics accused her of being overly secretive, but George countered that the secrecy was temporary, legally justified, and essential to holding powerful actors accountable. Ironically, after she filed a sweeping lawsuit against JPMorgan alleging the bank knowingly enabled Epstein’s trafficking operation, she was fired by the governor—an event that only amplified scrutiny of why the sealed records mattered and who might have been implicated. Her push to maintain strict confidentiality was ultimately part of a larger strategy: protect the investigation first, then reveal the truth once the evidence was secured.
