The U.S. Justice Department has opened an investigation into whether attorneys committed professional misconduct in handling the case of Jeffrey Epstein, who was accused of molesting young girls and received just over a year in jail as part of his sentence. The inquiry is being handled by the Office of Professional Responsibility, which explores allegations of employee wrongdoing. However, even if it finds evidence of misconduct, its findings are not usually made public and may have limited consequences for the attorneys involved. The department revealed the investigation in response to questions from Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) about how the department handled its inquiry into Epstein's case.

The US Department of Justice has opened an investigation into whether attorneys committed "professional misconduct" in the handling of Jeffrey Epstein's child sex abuse case. The case had been the subject of an investigation by the Miami Herald, which revealed that then-US Attorney Alex Acosta, now President Trump's labor secretary, shelved a 53-page indictment that could have put Epstein behind bars for life. Epstein, who has connections to both Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, assembled a high-powered legal team to address the allegations he faced, but ultimately pleaded guilty in 2008 only to state charges of soliciting prostitution. The investigation is being handled by the Office of Professional Responsibility, which typically results in employees being fired, but its findings are not usually made public.
