For more on today's vote, I'm joined now by an## attorney representing multiple survivors# of Epstein's abuse.

That's Spencer Kuvin.

Spencer, welcome to the# show.

Thanks for joining us.

SPENCER KUVIN, Attorney Representing Epstein# Survivors: Thank you for having me today.

AMNA NAWAZ: So you have been representing# Epstein su.. think it's fair to say this moment has been# a long time coming for you and for them.

Just give us a sense of what you're hearing## from your clients about this moment# and how they're feeling right now.

SPENCER KUVIN: Well, first of all, I# represented the first young girl that## went to police here in Palm Beach.# And when the state attorneys failed## to prosecute the claim and it went to# the federal investigators back then,## they were promised justice back then in 2008, only# to be denied that over and over and over again.

So to be able to have the world see# the full breadth and scope of this## sexual pyramid that Jeffrey Epstein had built over# the years, it is a breath of fresh air, hopefully,## that finally the world will get to see exactly# who was involved, and not just Jeffrey Epstein## and Ghislaine Maxwell, but everyone that# was involved in this or complicit in this.

AMNA NAWAZ: We saw after the release of# these latest e-mails some action, right,## triggering of new questions, the president calling# for a probe into many, including Bill Clinton,## former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers# apologizing and stepping back from public eye.

Do your clients see this as# some kind of a reckoning?

Do## they believe that there will# be full transparency here?

SPENCER KUVIN: Well, trust but verify,# right?

I think a wise man once said that.

At the end of the day, my clients are# hopeful, as they always have been, that## ultimately truth will set free and they will# allow the world to see the full breadth and## scope of this information.

But at the end of# the day, they're very skeptical of anything## that the government tells them because# they have been denied justice for so long.

But what's important is, I think,# for the general public to see the## full nature of this and the people that# were complicit in what was happening.

AMNA NAWAZ: I hear you saying the# full nature again and again.

And## I want to note that we have seen files# from the investigation released before## and they have been heavily redacted, page# after page of blacked-out information.

Do you think the same thing could happen again or## the Department of Justice could# just withhold several documents?

SPENCER KUVIN: Oh, I have no# doubt.

I don't put it past the## government to withhold whatever# they think is damaging to them.

But at the end of the day, we have to# keep pushing.

And my clients want the## government and the people behind this to# keep pushing to release everything.

And## the most important thing that needs to# be released are the photographs and the## videotapes surveillance that was taken# inside the mansion at Epstein's home.

The FBI and the Department of Justice are# currently sitting on hundreds of hours of## videotapes, hundreds of hours of videotapes# that show people that were going in and## out of Jeffrey Epstein's home.

That's what's# going to be significant for the world to see.

AMNA NAWAZ: Spencer, what do you make# of the president's U-turn on this issue,## first asking Republicans not to vote to release# these files and then coming around and saying## they should vote to release them?

How# do you and your clients look at that?

SPENCER KUVIN: Well, we# actually see it as a W-turn.

Remember that President Trump said that# he would stand with the victims and was## demanding the release of the Epstein# files during the election campaign.## He then saw apparently what was in# those files or was briefed on it,## and then he changed his tune and told# them not to release the information.

When it looked like that the vote was going# to go overwhelmingly in the favor of turning## over this information and the Republicans were# going to vote for the turnover of information,## he then switched again and now# said, release the information.

What I think is so significant, though,# is, President Trump has said in the past,## when it came to the documents that were found# in his home here in Palm Beach in Mar-a-Lago,## that he could declassify records and documents at# the stroke of a pen.

I think his own quote was,## even if he was thinking about# it, he could declassify it.

So we didn't need this law.

If President# Trump had just abided by his campaign## promise to release this information, he# could have released this information at## the stroke of a pen.

So let's get# it done.

Let's see the documents.

AMNA NAWAZ: I'm sure you have# seen the reports, of course,## of Epstein's convicted co-conspirator,# Ghislaine Maxwell, reportedly getting## special treatment in prison, seeking to have# her sentence commuted by President Trump.

How do your clients feel about that?

SPENCER KUVIN: Disgusted.

I mean,# in a word, absolutely disgusted.

This is a convicted sex trafficker multiple# times over and a convicted perjurer,## liar under oath.

There is absolutely no person in# the jail system that gets this type of treatment## with this type of conviction, unless there is# some favor to be curried to the government.

She gave them something# they wanted.

And, in return,## they gave her a favor by transferring her to# this facility and giving her these privileges.

AMNA NAWAZ: Fair to say a lot# of questions still unanswered.

That is attorney Spencer Kuvin joining us tonight.

Spencer, thank you.

It's good to speak with you.

SPENCER KUVIN: Thank you for having me.
