A three-judge panel in a New York appeals court asked questions Wednesday that appeared to signal they would make documents public related to multimillionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein's plea deal for sexually abusing teenage girls, according to the Miami Herald. The Herald is suing to unseal the records, claiming it violates the First Amendment to have them sealed.

The Herald, supported by 32 other media organizations and Harvard lawyer Alan Dershowitz, is suing to have documents related to a lawsuit by Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who alleged Epstein's partner approached her when she was 16 and working at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort about becoming a masseur for Epstein. Giuffre alleges she and other girls were sexually abused and trafficked to a number of other wealthy individuals between 1999 to 2002.
