French prosecutors to set up special team to review Epstein files

French prosecutors are establishing a special team to analyze evidence from the Jeffrey Epstein files, potentially implicating French nationals in his crimes. This decision follows the release of documents by US authorities revealing Epstein's connections to prominent French figures. The team will also re-examine the case of Jean-Luc Brunel, a close Epstein associate who died in custody in 2022 while facing charges of raping minors. The aim is to identify any information that could lead to new investigations into suspected crimes involving French citizens. The prosecutor's office is also investigating specific cases involving a French diplomat, a modeling agent, and a musician mentioned in the Epstein files, as well as a complaint against a model recruiter.
