Under penalty of perjury, a witness told the FBI back in 2016 that they had “personally witnessed” President Donald Trump threaten to “disappear” a girl and have her entire family killed, according to a document released by the Justice Department on Friday.Released as part of the DOJ’s publication of around 3.5 million files on Jeffrey Epstein, the FBI tip was submitted by an individual using the pseudonym “Tiffany Doe,” and includes details of an alleged threat Trump made to a plaintiff in a lawsuit.“I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling Plaintiff that she shouldn’t ever say anything if she didn’t want to disappear like the 12-year-old female [redacted], and that he was capable of having her whole family killed,” the FBI tip reads, signed under penalty of perjury on June 18, 2016.The plaintiff claimed to have been employed by Epstein from 1990 to 2000, and told the FBI that she was personally threatened by Epstein in a similar manner to the way she alleged Trump had threatened the unknown plaintiff in the unknown lawsuit.“I was personally threatened by Mr. Epstein that I would be killed and my family killed as well if I ever disclosed any of the physical and sexual abuse of minor females that I had personally witnessed by Mr. Epstein or any of his guests,” the FBI tip reads.“I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein, including the Plaintiff, during the time of my employment from the years of 1990-2000 for Mr. Epstein.”As journalists and analysts continue to scour the 3.5 million Epstein files, more accusations against Trump have been unearthed, including a child sex abuse tip against Trump that was passed to the FBI for further investigation, as well as an allegation that Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell had attempted to “effectively pimp” a young girl to Trump.Trump has been plagued by his past relationship with Epstein during his second stint in the White House, with Epstein once claiming to have been Trump’s “closest friend for 10 years.” Trump has also flown on Epstein’s private jet at least seven times in the 1990s, and, according to documents released in December by the DOJ, may have “spent hours” with one of Epstein’s victims at his home.Trump has denied any wrongdoing as it relates to his past relationship with Epstein and is not facing any criminal charges.
