Letters: AG Bondi's histrionics won't stop questions on Epstein files

During questioning by Congress, Attorney General Pam Bondi used shouting as a technique to deflect difficult questions about President Donald Trump and the Epstein Files, citing the current strong stock market as an example of Trump's success. But Trump cannot be let off the hook for possible crimes just because he is perceived as doing some things right. Even a criminal as notorious as mob boss Al Capone appears to have been a family man who supported projects in his community. Such benevolence, though admirable, didn't erase the need for accountability when he committed tax evasion and murder.
