The Justice Department on Thursday released three parts of an FBI interview with a woman who accuses President Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager. The victim said Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to the 79-year-old. She claimed she bit Trump’s penis when he forced her to perform oral sex and he hit her. The latest release comes after Democrats accused the Justice Department of withholding materials that include allegations against the president.
Trump has denied any wrongdoing. White House press secretary Carolyn Leavitt called the accusations “completely baseless accusations, unsupported by credible evidence and coming from a disturbed woman with an extensive criminal history.”
“These allegations are completely baseless, which is also supported by the obvious fact that Joe Biden’s Department of Justice has known about these allegations for four years and yet took no action against them because they knew President Trump did absolutely nothing wrong. As we have said countless times, President Trump is completely exonerated by the release of the Epstein dossier,” she said.
The FBI report noted that the document records statements made during interviews and does not represent conclusions verified by investigators. Many of the accusations remain those made by witnesses in the broader Epstein investigation.
The file, a FBI FD-302 The report, dated Aug. 7, 2019, details testimony from a woman who described repeated abuse as a teenager and interactions she claims occurred within Epstein’s circle.
Here are five of the most compelling claims outlined in the interview
Alleged encounters involving Donald Trump
Witnesses told investigators that Epstein took her to New York or New Jersey when she was 13 to 15 years old, where she was introduced to Donald Trump in what she described as a building with “giant rooms.”
Trump reportedly asked others in the room to leave before the alleged sexual encounter took place. Witnesses claimed she resisted and bit him before someone else re-entered the room. She also claimed she had two other interactions with Trump but declined to discuss them further during that interview.
“Get this little bitch out of here,” the woman recalled Trump saying.
Claims Trump and Epstein discussed blackmail
The woman claimed she overheard a conversation between Epstein and Trump about extortion. The convicted sex trafficker spoke openly about blackmailing others in her presence, according to testimony.
She also claimed Trump talked about “laundering money through casinos” and claimed Epstein’s extortion behavior was well known in his circle.
Jealousy accusations between Trump and Epstein
In interviews, the witness said she sensed tension between the two. She claimed Trump at times appeared jealous of Epstein, although she believed they later lived together as equals in the same social circles.
She also said the pair allegedly used phrases such as “fresh meat,” “untainted” and “not tired” when referring to the girls, according to testimony recorded in the report.
Blackmail claims involving explicit photos
Witnesses said Epstein took Polaroid photos of her during a sexual encounter and later used the explicit photos to blackmail her mother.
According to her, Epstein and an associate known as “Jim Atkins” allegedly threatened to expose the photos, which she said forced her mother to divert funds from her real estate business to try to buy the photos back. Witnesses claim her mother was later jailed for financial crimes.
Allegations about Epstein’s network and abuse
The woman told investigators that she had sexual encounters with Epstein between six and 20 times, and claimed that other wealthy men were sometimes present.
She claimed Epstein often provided alcohol, marijuana and cocaine during these interactions and said she was sometimes tasked with recruiting other young girls to attend parties. Witnesses also described physical abuse by unidentified men and claimed Epstein recorded the encounter with photos.
