Ron DeSantis signed a bipartisan bill into law that unearth more Jeffrey Epstein records.
The law will allow for the release of records from a 2006 Florida grand jury.
Victim advocates hope that the release of the Epstein grand jury records will shed light on why prosecutors brought limited charges, and what else they may have known at the time.
The Associated Press reported that a state judge decided not to release the records Thursday morning, citing the impending law.
The Palm Beach police chief was so outraged that the grand jury only charged Epstein with one count that the FBI got involved.
