I built this interactive explorer after obtaining 14,674 DOJ documents through FOIA releases related to the Epstein case.

  Technical stack:
  - Vanilla JS + D3.js for the force-directed network visualization
  - Static HTML/CSS hosted on GitHub Pages
  - All 14,674 PDFs converted to searchable text
  - 38,562 images extracted and organized

  Features:
  - Interactive conspiracy network graph showing connections
  - Searchable person cards with document counts
  - Direct document excerpts with highlighted keywords
  - Clickable links to detailed reference pages for each person
  - Full timeline from 1994-2022

  The data processing involved bulk PDF-to-text conversion and entity extraction to identify names, phone numbers, and aircraft tail numbers across the corpus.

  Happy to answer questions about the technical implementation or findings.
