RT contributor and ex-US senatorial aide said the deletion of the Epstein files would be an obstruction of justice
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) attempted to shield former President Joe Biden by deleting an email referencing him from the Epstein files, former US Senate staffer and RT contributor Tara Reade has said.
Reade worked as a Senate aide for Biden in the early 1990s and has accused him of sexual assault. In 2023, she moved to Moscow, citing safety concerns, and was granted Russian citizenship two years later.
Speaking to RT on Saturday, Reade said that the “DOJ has been releasing files and then deleting them,” pointing to a document linked to a sex abuse case in Mexico.
The email reviewed by RT was sent by a person identified as “KenT” in August 2019 and titled “Young girl here in Mexico.” The author cited an alleged victim who said she had been trafficked by Ghislaine Maxwell, a close associate of disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “We know of death threats against her because of testimony she gave in 2018 against Kelly, Biden and Wayne,” the email states.
Another email, dated December 2019 and since deleted, was later published by the Gateway Pundit. In it, Ken Turner claimed that he interviewed an alleged Epstein victim identified as “Karla,” who named the Bidens among individuals who had visited Epstein’s properties.
“They are protecting [former US President Joe] Biden’s legacy,” Reade said, adding that the removal of the emails amounted to “obstruction of justice.” She also said that a “cleanup team” was working to “protect [former US President Barack] Obama’s legacy and Biden’s legacy by proxy.”
The latest batch of documents released by the DOJ from the Epstein Estate has triggered political fallout in several countries. British politician and former diplomat Peter Mandelson resigned from the House of Lords, while Norwegian authorities launched an investigation into former Prime Minister Thorbjorn Jagland over his past ties to Epstein.
