The Alleged Trump Victim's Claims about Blackmail Are as Important as Her Claims about Rape

Yesterday, DOJ released the three interview reports from a woman who alleged she was abused by Donald Trump that it had previously withheld.

As NPR notes, DOJ is still withholding a number of materials (notes from her interviews and, far more importantly, details about the handling of the interview) relating to the accusation. That matters because, it is now clear, DOJ withheld — and is still withholding — the originals of the interview reports.

And that matters given the timeline of the accusations and the fact that, just days before Epstein suicided, the victim claimed Epstein and Trump spoke about blackmail.

Here’s what the timeline looks like:
