yahoo news | Epstein survivor Jena-Lisa Jones: The fight for truth is worth the pain Jena‑Lisa Jones, who was 14 when Jeffrey Epstein began abusing her in Florida, has become a vocal advocate for the release of the full investigative files held by the U.S. Department of Justice. In March she joined Detroit News reporter Jennifer Chambers for a Zoom interview from her West Palm Beach home, discussing why she first went public in 2016 after Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown exposed Epstein’s “sweetheart‑deal” and why the case stalled. Jones says the anger and frustration that followed spurred her to keep fighting—not just for herself but for the dozens of survivors whose voices have been silenced. She will travel to Michigan in early April to deliver the keynote address at the University of Michigan’s 48th Take Back the Night event, a gathering aimed at raising awareness about sexual violence and uplifting survivors. During the interview Jones criticized President Donald Trump for failing to honor his campaign promise to release the files, calling his dismissal of the issue a “heart‑breaking” betrayal. She described the limited documents already released—only about 3.5 million of an estimated six‑million pages—as “horrific” and “re‑traumatizing,” noting that redactions often hide victims’ names while powerful figures like Les Wexner remain obscured. Jones argues the Justice Department should at least protect survivors’ identities and allow the remaining evidence to be used in court, rather than shielding possible perpetrators. For her, justice means holding accountable everyone involved, though she admits the path to that outcome remains unclear. Jones’s message to other survivors centers on validation and support: “Your voice deserves to be heard, whether you choose to speak out or not. Shame belongs to the predators, not to you.” She acknowledges the emotional toll of constantly confronting painful truths while balancing motherhood, work, and daily life, but credits her family, lawyers, and therapists for helping her stay resilient. Ultimately, she believes the fight for truth and accountability—though fraught with trauma—is “so worth the pain,” and hopes that continued advocacy will finally bring the long‑awaited justice for all Epstein victims.

qwant news | Epstein survivor who voted for Trump says she now fears ’we’re not going to get justice’ Jena‑Lisa Jones, an Epstein survivor who was abused at age 14, held a photo of her younger self at a news conference outside the US Capitol on 18 November 2025. After casting her vote for Donald Trump in the 2024 election, she explained that she supported him because he promised to release the long‑sought Jeffrey Epstein files, a promise that gave her and many other survivors hope for a “day in court.” In a recent interview on the Shadow Sessions podcast, Jones reiterated that her vote was driven by the expectation of transparency and accountability for the crimes tied to Epstein’s network.\n\nSince Trump’s inauguration, Jones says the promised release of the files never materialised and the administration later dismissed further disclosures as a “Democratic hoax.” The Justice Department has since refused to release additional records, prompting Jones to fear that “we’re not going to get justice in all of this.” She described the backlash survivors face—death threats, hostile commentary—and stressed that each story she shares and every young girl who reaches out reinforces her resolve to keep speaking out, even without seeing her own FBI interview files among the limited disclosures.\n\nIn November, Jones and other survivors gathered outside the Capitol to urge lawmakers to pass legislation demanding the DOJ release all Epstein‑related records. Trump eventually signed the bill into law on 19 November, and the DOJ has since published several batches of documents, including about three million records in January. However, survivors claim crucial files—especially those documenting their FBI interviews—remain missing or redacted, and Jones confirms she has yet to locate her own files. Despite these setbacks, she remains committed to advocating for the victims and demanding that the remaining perpetrators be brought to justice.
