A dozen victims of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein sue the FBI for its failure to investigate him. The women are seeking damages from the federal agency for ignoring “credible indications” about the sexual predator's activities in 1996.

Epstein was found dead in his Manhattan federal prison cell, where he was awaiting trial, in August 2019. Last June, a Justice Department investigation concluded that a chain of negligence and failures in his custody facilitated Epstein's hanging in his cell. The number of Epstein's victims is believed to be well over a hundred.
