Pam Bondi “could have tried” Jeffrey Epstein while she was Florida Attorney General between 2011 and 2019, according to a law professor. President Donald Trump’s embattled Attorney General has been mired in controversy over the release of the Epstein files, which she claimed were sitting on her desk in February.

Pam Bondi took office as Florida's first female attorney general in 2011. Epstein had gotten out of the County Jail two years earlier.
