President Donald Trump became defensive when asked about his administration’s handling of the federal government’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, particularly the deceased sex offender’s so-called client list.

The footage was released alongside a two-page memo from the department that said after a "thorough investigation," FBI investigators concluded that the wealthy financier and convicted sex offender, who was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, died by suicide in his jail cell.

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday sought to tamp down outrage on the right over the Justice Department’s memo on disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein released this week. The Justice Department and FBI on Monday released a roughly 11-hour video from outside Epstein’s prison cell door to dispel claims Epstein did not die by suicide.
