Victims of Jeffrey Epstein are compiling a confidential list of his associates who abused underage girls, demanding accountability and urging the Justice Department to release all investigation files. This comes as former President Donald Trump dismissed the enduring furor over the case as a "Democrat hoax."

• Eight of Epstein's victims held an emotional news conference at the US Capitol, with some speaking publicly for the first time.
• Victim Marina Lacerda, "Minor Victim 1" in Epstein's federal indictment, described a dream job turning into a "worst nightmare" after being paid $300 for a massage.
• Lisa Phillips, another victim, stated, "We know the names. Many of us were abused by them. We will confidentially compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world."
