Excerpt:
Survivor Dani Bensky confronted Blanche about the disclosures during his Senate confirmation hearing in July. “It’s been absolutely devastating,” she testified. “Outing survivors causes real and irrevocable harm. While coping with our emotional distress and psychological trauma, we also have lost our privacy and confidentiality, suffered reputational harm, lost jobs, and now fear for our personal safety.”

The FBI employees allegedly received instructions from FBI and DOJ leadership to only redact victims’ names if they were on a “designated victim list,” according to the complaint. The complaint describes the decision to limit victim information redactions as “highly alarming” considering that it exposed personally identifiable information, grand jury materials, and information about child victims and witnesses. The Wall Street Journal has previously reported that employees were directed to disclose geographical information about victims, including city and state.

“I am concerned that people who are determined to find the victims will be able to piece together the information that we were instructed to not redact [and it] will lead to harassment or worse for the victims,” the whistleblower wrote in an email to a supervisor four days before filing the complaint.

Aaahh, the US of A, where child rape isn't just fine, we'll even up the ante an revictimize the victims just so they know whose in charge.

While risking the disclosure of information about victims, the whistleblower alleged that “staff were instructed to flag any records in which the current President is mentioned.” As previously reported by Raw Story, the materials the FBI turned over to the Department of Justice on March 25, 2025 included “flagged items” that listed “public figures” referenced in the 2006 criminal investigation of Epstein in south Florida and the 2019 investigation in the Southern District of New York.

Some clear priorities here.
