'Now Do Epstein': Martin Luther King Jr.'s Daughter Takes Aim At Trump Over Released MLK Files

Bernice King, the youngest daughter of the late Martin Luther King Jr., has pointedly implored President Donald Trump to release the Jeffrey Epstein case files after the Trump administration released a slew of long-sealed documents surrounding her father’s 1968 assassination.

Trump released the documents about the legendary civil rights leader despite the King family’s opposition.

“While we support transparency and historical accountability, we object to any attacks on our father’s legacy or attempts to weaponize it to spread falsehoods,” the King family said in a statement on Monday.

The documents related to King’s assassination were among others that Trump made public through a January executive order.
