Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to turn to face the survivors and apologize for the “absolutely unacceptable” release of the Epstein files.

Jayapal asked the Epstein survivors at the hearing to raise their hand if they still have not met with Bondi’s Department of Justice — and all of the survivors present raised their hand.

The Washington Democrat then asked Bondi to turn to the survivors to apologize for “what your Department of Justice has put them through with the absolutely unacceptable release of the Epstein files and their information.”

Bondi accused Jayapal of “doing theatrics,” and refused to turn to face the survivors and apologize.
