Newly Released Epstein Flight Logs Include Notable Anchor Known as ‘The Most Trusted Man in America’

The newly released Epstein flight records have drawn attention for including the late Walter Cronkite, though authorities emphasize that being listed does not indicate any criminal wrongdoing. The documents are part of a broader release reviewed by the House Oversight Committee, which also includes testimony from former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta defending Epstein’s controversial 2008 plea deal. Acosta maintained that witness-credibility challenges shaped the decision to pursue a plea rather than risk an acquittal. As additional names surface in the logs, the disclosures continue to fuel public interest while officials reiterate that the records alone do not prove misconduct.
