Clerk Seeks Legislature’s Help to Release Epstein Grand Jury Records
|
|
|
Clerk Abruzzo is asking members of the Palm Beach County legislative delegation for their help in changing Florida Statutes to allow for the release of grand jury records in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
His decision comes after a judge’s ruling in a Palm Beach County Circuit Court case where the Palm Beach Post newspaper sued for access to the grand jury records. Florida Statute 905.27 limits the release of grand jury records.
"I will leave no stone unturned to do whatever I can to shed full light and public disclosure on the Epstein case."

Single Mother in Need

We celebrated all things giving December 15 with our Money Drop event, which took place in the Governmental Center atrium.
The performers of this year's Money Drop raised $3,500 during the show for Trekita Harris, a single mother of two high school-age children with no steady place to live since she was evicted from her home after falling ill.
Our musical event featured a holiday performance by the Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller’s Circuit Sound carolers, with check presentations to local nonprofits Meals on Wheels, Little Smiles, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, and Live Like Jake.
Last year, the Clerk's office saw $32,165 raised through the Dress Down Friday program, all going to these amazing charities!
