Q Were you consulted as to whether or not something should be redacted? A I don't believe so. Mr. Emmer. I would now like to introduce what will be marked majority exhibit 5, and I will give you a moment to review. [Bondi Majority Exhibit No. 5 was marked for identification.] BY MR. EMMER: Q This is a Department of Justice memorandum dated January 4, 2026, entitled "Attorney Review Protocol for Epstein Files?" A Yes. And this is from the Deputy Attorney General's Office, yes. Q Attorney General Bondi, do you recognize this document? A Yes. I have not read it in its entirety. Q Is this the document that you were referring to when I asked you whether there was a process for DOJ employees to redact? A Yes. You asked about training, yes, and this is a very detailed memo as to what specifically, under the law, can be released and what should be redacted. Q According to this document, and specifically on the top of page 6, there is a highly confidential list of victim names that must be redacted. Are you aware of a list of victim names that needed to be redacted? A Yes, not specifically what victims, but I believe that list kept growing as well. Q And I believe that you mentioned this before, this was one of your main concerns as part of producing the documents under the EFTA. Is that right? A Yes. Q Were any victims or their attorneys contacted for the creation of this list? A I believe so.
