NPR's Ava Berger reports.
In a prepared opening statement, Bondi told the House Oversight Committee

She admitted there were redaction errors in the Epstein files release,
but she also noted that the Epstein document review was overseen by her deputy, Todd Blanche.
Outside the day's proceedings, a group of Epstein survivors demanded answers.
