A federal judge in Florida denied a request by the Trump administration to unseal some documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein.

“My hands are tied,” US District Judge Robin Rosenberg said Wednesday in a written opinion, saying she is bound by local court rulings related to the release of grand jury information from the original criminal investigations into Epstein.
