"i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. virignia spent hours at my house with him" [View all]

One email, from Epstein to Maxwell in April 2011, claims Trump spent hours with a victim. It reads:

"I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. [Victim] spent hours at my house with him."



Shortly afterwards, the White House put out a statement saying the “unnamed victim” was Virginia Giuffre who "repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever".

Since that statement, BBC Verify has been combing through the documents released by the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee. It has found the same email - in a file named HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_031326.txt.

However, unlike the fully redacted one put out by the US House Democrats, a name does appear:

"i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. virignia spent hours at my house with him ,,"
