WASHINGTON (PNN) - March 6, 2026 - The Department of Justice (DoJ) has published FBI interviews with a woman who alleged that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a teenager after she was introduced to him by Jeffrey Epstein.
The woman told agents that Trump hit her after she bit his penis when he attempted to force her to perform oral sex.
The FBI spoke to her four times between August and October 2019, after Epstein's arrest, but only a summary of one of those interviews had been included in the publicly released files.
The DOJ last week said it was reviewing whether Epstein files had been improperly withheld after Democrats accused Attorney General Pam Bondi of suppressing sexual assault allegations against President Trump.
Bondi was subpoenaed by Congress Wednesday as Republicans on the House Oversight Committee broke ranks amid mounting frustration at the handling of the Epstein files from the president's own party.
The Department announced late Thursday the files had been “incorrectly coded as duplicative” and therefore inadvertently withheld along with other investigative documents related to the disgraced financier, who was supposedly found hanged in a Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in 2019.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt called the allegations against President Trump “completely baseless, backed by zero credible evidence, from a sadly disturbed woman who has an extensive criminal history.”
“The total baselessness of these accusations is also supported by the obvious fact that Joe Biden’s Department of Justice knew about them for four years and did nothing with them - because they knew President Trump did absolutely nothing wrong. As we have said countless times, President Trump has been totally exonerated by the release of the Epstein Files,” Leavitt said.
The woman contacted the FBI shortly after Epstein's arrest and claimed a man named 'Jeff' had raped her in Hilton Head, South Carolina, in the early 1980s when she was around 13.
She told agents she didn't know who he was at the time, but decades later concluded he was Epstein when a friend texted her his photo from a news story.
In a follow-up interview a month later, the woman added a host of other allegations, including that Epstein had schemed to have her mother sent to prison, beaten her, and arranged sexual encounters with other men.
She alleged Epstein and President Trump referred to girls using the terms “fresh meat” and “untainted”.
There is no indication Epstein ever lived in South Carolina, and no evidence he and Trump knew each other in 1983, at least four years before the President has acknowledged becoming acquainted with the financier.
President Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein.
The principle of innocence till proven guilty puts the burden on the accuser to show credible evidence to support her unfounded claims. Though many people want to assume that President Trump is guilty of rape and child sexual molestation because it looks like a good scandal, true justice has not been served if this woman’s very scattered and unproven allegations are allowed to stand.
