The Trump administration’s move to unseal grand jury information in the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases was always a narrow effort, legally speaking, because grand jury presentations generally deal with narrow sets of evidence presented for the purposes of indicting specific people.

The grand jury transcripts in Jeffrey Epstein’s and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal cases — which the Trump administration is trying to get unsealed in a bid to satisfy demands for more transparency — contain testimony from just two law enforcement witnesses that may do little to answer questions surrounding President Donald Trump’s role in the sordid saga.
