Multiple survivors of Jeffrey Epstein spoke before a U.S. House hearing, sharing emotional testimony about the abuse they suffered as teenagers and the failures of the justice system. Jenna Lisa Jones told lawmakers she was only 14 years old when the abuse began in Palm Beach and said it took years for her to find the courage to speak publicly. Another survivor, Dani Bensky, said she still lives with PTSD after being abused in 2004 and 2005 — years after earlier reports about Epstein had already been made to authorities. Survivors said a secret non-prosecution deal allowed Epstein to avoid harsher charges, arguing the government failed to inform victims and denied them justice. The testimony came as lawmakers continue to examine the broader network around Epstein and calls for greater accountability. #JeffreyEpstein#EpsteinHearing#EpsteinVictims#CongressHearing#JusticeForVictims#EpsteinCase#USPolitics#BreakingNews#USnewsMint is an Indian financial daily newspaper published by HT Media.
