Newly released documents tied to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation include an FBI interview report summarizing an uncorroborated allegation involving President Donald Trump, according to files published by the U.S. Department of Justice this week as part of a broader disclosure of previously withheld materials.
The document-identified as FBI case 31E-NY-3027571, Interview #2, dated Aug. 7, 2019-records a witness statement describing an alleged encounter involving Trump when the woman said she was between 13 and 15 years old. The report was among three FBI "302" interview summaries released on March 6, 2026, after the Justice Department said they had been mistakenly excluded from an earlier document dump connected to the Epstein investigation.
The witness's identity remains redacted in the publicly released material.
According to the FBI interview summary, the woman told agents she had been introduced to Trump by Epstein during a trip to either New York or New Jersey. The report states that Trump "asked everyone to leave the room" before the alleged encounter took place.
The document records that Trump "mentioned something to the effect of, 'Let me teach you how little girls are supposed to be.'"
The FBI summary goes on to describe an alleged physical assault during the encounter. The woman told investigators she resisted and fought back, according to the account recorded in the report.
Another passage in the document describes an interaction that allegedly occurred afterward. According to the witness statement summarized in the report, a woman approached her and said: "let me give you a tip little girl about your breasts, wear a bra every night."
Federal investigators interviewed the woman multiple times during the 2019 Epstein investigation. According to Justice Department records, the FBI conducted four interviews between July and October 2019.
The allegation involving Trump appeared during the second interview on Aug. 7, 2019. During a later session in October, the witness declined to provide further details when agents attempted follow-up questions about the alleged encounter.
The Justice Department said the documents were initially omitted from a January document release due to a classification error. In a statement posted online explaining the delay, the department said some files had been incorrectly labeled as duplicates.
"After this was brought to our attention, we reviewed the entire batch with the similar coding and discovered 15 documents were incorrectly coded as duplicative," the DOJ said.
Officials said the mistake may have resulted from human error during the process of cataloging the large volume of records related to Epstein.
The department previously addressed allegations involving Trump when discussing the broader document release earlier this year. In a January statement, the DOJ said that some investigative files contained claims targeting the president.
"Some of the documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election," the department said. "To be clear, the claims are unfounded and false, and if they have a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponised against President Trump already."
Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing in connection with Epstein or knowledge of Epstein's criminal activities.
The documents released this week were produced under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, legislation passed by Congress in November 2025 requiring the Justice Department to release all documents in its possession related to the Epstein investigation within 30 days.
