So far concerning the Epstein files, I have not seen any reasonable argument presented by the government as reason enough not to release it.
The only way to get justice for the victims is to ensure that the perpetrators are put behind bars, but of the DOJ has said the files won't be released, it only means that the contents or informations are incriminating enough to dent the image of so called powerful individuals. And hiding it simply means that they're not yet ready to serve justice.
Well, I hope someday the powers that be will understand the reason they're seated where they are and that their primary assignment is serve the general public and deliver justice.
This is just one example of the many that exist in our society of how our government and its systems have always failed failed to deliver on the promises they made and always have something for cover up as I'd we're kids..
Someday isn't good enough, because the people involved are in power now. It has to be timely.
