Jeffrey Epstein survivors have filed a class-action lawsuit against the Trump administration's Department of Justice and Google over the alleged release of their private information. The lawsuit seeks at least $1,000 per survivor from the DOJ and demands a court order requiring Google to immediately and permanently remove their personal information from public access.

The legal action comes amid broader concerns about the handling of sensitive data related to the Epstein case. Reports indicate that a significant data breach may have occurred involving what was described as "anonymous" crime tips, with approximately 93 gigabytes of ultra-sensitive information potentially compromised.

Separately, a US lawmaker has made a direct appeal to Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, requesting her testimony regarding her connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The letter, which has been reviewed by the BBC, asks Ferguson to share any knowledge she may have about Prince Andrew's links to the convicted sex offender.

The developments highlight ongoing efforts to seek accountability and gather information related to the Epstein case, which has involved high-profile figures and raised questions about the protection of victim privacy. The dual legal and legislative actions represent continued attempts to address various aspects of the scandal's aftermath.

The timing of these actions suggests renewed focus on unresolved questions surrounding Epstein's network and the handling of related information by government agencies and technology companies.
