‘I Don’t Trust Anybody’: Curley troubled by Epstein Documents and DOJ Secrecy

Feb 7, 2026, 5:00 AM

The release of more Jeffrey Epstein-related documents has raised serious questions about accountability in politics, business, and law enforcement.

During “The John Curley Show” on KIRO Newsradio, KIRO host John Curley explored the documents in detail, highlighting a complex web of influence, alleged crimes, and cover-ups that continue to shape public perception.

“I don’t trust anybody,” Curley said, reflecting on inconsistencies in official accounts. “The DOJ isn’t releasing everything, and it’s impossible to know who’s really telling the truth.”

Curley also looked at how social media and online communities have amplified both verified and unverified claims, creating confusion and desensitizing the public to shocking allegations.

He pointed out that these revelations touch not only public figures but also the broader culture of secrecy surrounding powerful individuals.

“If these allegations are true, no girl should ever have been put in that situation,” Curley said. “Even with all the money and power involved, the real victims are the kids.”
