Time for the truth: Epstein survivors release powerful ad on Super Bowl Sunday
India Today
Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein have released a powerful Super Bowl advert demanding full transparency in his sex trafficking case. The ad urges Attorney General Pam Bondi to disclose all related records, highlighting ongoing calls for justice and truth.
Survivors of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are leveraging one of the year’s most-watched events in the US to make sure their voices are finally heard. On Super Bowl Sunday, the women released a stark advert calling for full transparency in what they describe as the world’s largest sex-trafficking scandal.
The video, released by advocacy group World Without Exploitation, features Epstein’s survivors speaking directly to the camera and urging Americans to stand with them. The women call on US Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all remaining records tied to the case, as mandated under Congress’ Epstein Files Transparency Act.
One by one, the survivors address viewers before their voices merge into a collective declaration: "After years of being kept apart, we’re standing together, because this girl deserves the truth."
With photographs of their younger selves, at the ages when they claim they were first exploited by Epstein, the group of women demanded public disclosure of information about other people allegedly involved in the disgraced financier’s crimes.
The ad ends with a blunt message splashed across the screen: “Stand With Us. Tell Attorney General Pam Bondi: IT’S TIME FOR THE TRUTH.”
Airing during Super Bowl Sunday -- the championship game of the National Football League and one of the biggest events on US television -- the video is a bid by the long-silenced survivors to keep public pressure on the Justice Department. World Without Exploitation also released a longer version of the commercial online, calling it "the Super Bowl ad every American should see."
