The House Oversight Committee called on the Department of Justice to interview key witnesses in the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell investigations. Rep.

The sources reviewed did not name the specific witnesses or set out a timetable for any interviews, and did not describe a Justice Department response.
