Bernice King taunts Trump to release Epstein files
Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr., called on President Donald Trump to release documents related to Jeffrey Epstein after he released 230,000 pages on her late father.
The document release was a fulfillment of Trump’s executive order to declassify FBI reports on the assassination of King Jr., 57 years after the fact. However, the release came as the Trump administration continues to combat demands for further declassification on Epstein, the late convicted sex trafficker.
King joined the chorus for transparency Monday on X.
“Now, do the Epstein files,” she wrote, posting a photo of her father.
The King family has long disputed that James Earl Ray, who died in prison following his conviction of assassinating King Jr., is innocent of King Jr.’s murder. A Memphis jury in 1999 concluded in a civil suit that government entities conspired in the assassination.
WHAT THE GOVERNMENT STILL WON’T REVEAL ABOUT JEFFREY EPSTEIN
“I am, honestly, not prepared to revisit the gruesome details of this painful history. For me, there is no real value in it; there is only reliving the trauma,” King wrote in Vanity Fair on Monday.
