I don't understand why there are so many thousands of "Epstein" files?

6. There's 20+ years worth of court cases and legal documents related to them

That alone is easily in the hundreds of thousands of pages - possibly more. Then there are the documents related to FBI and other Law Enforcement investigations. Interviews with witnesses, tips to law enforcement, any kind of documentation, etc.

Add in when he was arrested, they pretty much took possession of most everything he owned. The Files include likely every piece of paper he had at any one of his properties, every picture, every video tape, every computer and hard drive, etc.. Epstein was known to have kept hundreds of thousands of pictures. And someone like Epstein probably had hundreds of thousands of emails. Plus investigators after the arrest would have would have taken additional pictures of all his properties and contents - these were large properties so that alone is thousands and thousands of pictures.

I'm sure I'm missing a bunch of other things tthat would be included in the files. It shouuldn't be hard to understand. I'd be surprised if it wasn't multiple millions of documents/files/pages/etc.
