What recent developments have occurred in the Jeffrey Epstein case?
A do-over for the Justice Department. On Lisa Brady, Fox News. Days after millions of documents related to the federal probe of Jeffrey Epstein were published, the DOJ removing thousands of videos and images from its website following complaints about some material.
A statement from the DOJ says officials worked all hours through the weekend from the point the first victim-related concerns were raised to take down documents and media that may have inadvertently included victim-identifying information. The New York Times reports dozens of nude images were published. A law passed by Congress last year requires the full release of Epstein files, but with both sexually explicit images and information that could identify victims redacted.
What actions is the DOJ taking regarding the Epstein documents?
Fox's Jared Halpern at the White House. Meantime, President Trump posting he never went to what he calls the infested Epstein Island. Also suggesting there may be legal action in part over comments made by the Grammys host last night. Sheriff's officials in Arizona say the missing mom of a TV host did not leave on her own.
We do in fact have a crime.
Pima County, Arizona Sheriff Chris Nanos said that's what the scene at the home of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie indicates. She's the mother of Today Show anchor Savannah Guthrie and was reportedly last seen at her home Saturday evening. Sheriff Nanos said drones and search dogs are being used. Now they're also turning to the community and what they may have captured on doorbell or surveillance cameras.
Don't dismiss it that, oh, well, we really can't see the house. They still might see something. Maybe it's somebody walking by. Maybe it's a vehicle driving by at that time of day.
The sheriff said they will also talk to workers that maintain the home to find out what they may have seen.
Fox's Grinnell Scott. Scott, after months of pressure from the U.S., President Trump says India's prime minister agrees to stop buying Russian oil.

The U.S. House is expected to take up possible criminal referrals for the Clintons this week.
The House Rules Committee is expected to consider a pair of contempt of Congress resolutions targeting former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, while the full House is slated to vote later this week on whether to refer them to the Justice Department for criminal charges. The Clintons were subpoenaed to testify before the House Oversight Committee regarding Jeffrey Epstein, but declined to appear. More of the Epstein files were released on Friday and included famous names like billionaires Bill Gates and Elon Musk. The records show Epstein was friendly with former President Clinton as well as President Trump. Epstein killed himself in a New York jail in 2019 after being indicted for sex trafficking.
Fox's Tawny J. Powers, the Clintons have denied any wrongdoing and argued the subpoenas were invalid. The First Lady's documentary, Melania, faring better than expected for its opening weekend in theaters.
Documentaries are not huge ticket sales drivers. The majority of them open under $5 million. So the fact that Melania made $7 million an opening weekend is a success. It did cost a lot to make it. Amazon paid $40 million for the rights to release the film and $35 million to market it. Critics had panned it, even though audiences gave it a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The first lady is touting the performance, saying on X, number one highest opening in 10 years. According to Variety, the audience was 72% female, 83% were over the age of 45.
