James Dennehy, head of the FBI’s New York field office, is refusing to release thousands of pages of Jeffrey Epstein-related files to Attorney General Pam Bondi, despite direct orders according to media reports. Fox News host Jesse Watters called for the FBI to raid Dennehy’s office and arrest him, on Thursday night.
Dennehy is at the center of an explosive controversy. He’s the FBI’s man in charge of the New York field office, and he’s blocking access to critical Epstein files which President Trump had ordered be released to the public. On Thursday night, Fox News host Jesse Watters blasted Dennehy. “I think the FBI should raid his office and arrest him,” Watters said.
Watch here:
So, what’s in these files? Why is the FBI refusing to comply? Here’s what we know.
The Epstein Files Drama Unfolds
Thursday was supposed to be the day Epstein’s full flight logs, Rolodex, and other records finally came to light. A group of conservative influencers left a White House meeting carrying binders labeled Epstein Files: Phase One. But when they opened them, they found primarily old information—flight logs and contact lists that had already been made public. It looked like a bait-and-switch. We covered that part of the story, which according to Alex Jones had a twist to the story:
As Jones noted, Attorney General Pam Bondi wasn’t having it. She sent a blistering letter to FBI Director Kash Patel which was included in the binders. Bondi wrote in the letter that she had requested the complete Epstein files and was given only 200 pages. The FBI told her that was all they had. But then she learned the New York field office was sitting on thousands of pages of documents—including evidence from the Epstein investigation.
Kash Patel, head of the FBI, immediately responded saying he would in fact be ushering in a new day at the FBI:
Bondi is demanded that the FBI hand over everything by 8 a.m. Friday, to include all documents, videos, and records related to Epstein. She also ordered Patel to investigate why the FBI defied her original request.
Who’s Running the Cover-Up?
Dennehy. He’s the man running the New York field office—the same office withholding Epstein’s records. Dennehy isn’t just some random bureaucrat. He has a history. When Trump took office, Dennehy allegedly emailed his staff to “dig in” and resist.
And then there’s Maurene Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey. She’s an assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York and worked on both the Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases. That connection raises even more red flags.
Ale Jones also drew more suspicion to former FBI director James Comey again Friday morning:
Where Are the Files?
The FBI seized a mountain of evidence from Epstein’s properties in New Mexico, the Virgin Islands, Palm Beach, and New York. They took computers, surveillance footage, banking records, and file cabinets. Yet, somehow, the full case files are still missing.
The Department of Justice also gave Epstein a sweetheart non-prosecution deal 17 years ago. Those files? Nowhere to be found. The Bureau of Prisons, where Epstein supposedly killed himself? Their records are suspiciously absent, too.
The ‘Coincidences’ Keep Piling Up
Even former Attorney General Bill Barr admitted Epstein’s death was fishy. The cameras malfunctioned. The guards didn’t check on him. His cellmate was removed. Epstein’s body was moved around before investigators arrived.
Here is Barr’s statement from the time of Epstein’s death:
President Trump promised to release the Epstein files during his campaign. Now, Bondi’s push to uncover the truth is facing massive resistance from within the FBI. Is the Bureau embarrassed? Or is it protecting powerful people?
Many believe Epstein wasn’t just a predator—he was an intelligence asset. Theories suggest he was working with Israeli intelligence, possibly others. If true, that would explain the cover-up. The U.S. government isn’t protecting Epstein. They’re protecting themselves.
Bondi has drawn a line in the sand. The FBI has until Friday morning to comply. If Dennehy doesn’t turn over the files, will he face consequences? Or will this be another example of deep-state corruption running unchecked?
One thing is clear: The American people deserve answers and the Deep State is not happy.
