The reporting
What the Evidence Shows
Sen. Ron Wyden’s Senate Finance Committee office said in June and July 2025 that Treasury possessed records detailing Epstein’s financial activity, including extensive information about payments and transactions connected to his criminal network. A later account from Wyden’s investigators put the figure at 4,725 wire transfers and nearly $1.
1 billion moving through one Epstein account, with additional money flowing through other accounts. Those statements establish that the claim was made by a congressional investigator and that the records were described as extensive, but they are not themselves an independent audit of the files.

Revision history
- Version 2September 2, 2026
The verdict remains Mostly True, but the fresh check materially refines the claim. It attributes the records specifically to Treasury, reports 4,725 transfers and nearly $1.1 billion through one account plus additional funds through other accounts rather than confirming the earlier approximately $1.5 billion figure, and supports that the records had not been made public rather than conclusively establishing an across-the-board refusal. The fresh sources also emphasize that the underlying files and their contents were not independently verified and that the reasons for withholding remain unclear.
