Tech billionaire Elon Musk asked Jeffrey Epstein when he could visit Little St. James — the notorious “Pedo Island” in the Caribbean — early in 2014 but never made it, emails released by the Justice Department show.

On Dec. 13, 2013, the Tesla and SpaceX founder emailed Epstein that his family would “be in the BVI/St Bart’s area over the holidays. Is there a good time to visit?”

“[A]ny day [Jan.] 1st-8th,” Epstein answered. “[P]lay it by ear if you want. [A]lways space for you.”

After Musk responded “probably the 1st then,” Epstein rejoined: “[T]he 2 or 3 would be perfect. I will come and get you.”

The two men tentatively agreed that Musk would visit on Jan. 2, 2014, but the visit was never confirmed — as Epstein’s assistant Lesley Groff sent him an email on New Year’s Eve: “Just a reminder Elon Musk was asking about coming to your island Jan. 2…”

Epstein followed up with Musk on Jan. 1, writing: “sorry we didn’t connect, why don’t you consider clearing customs into the states in st thomas, come for lunch with the wife[?]”

Musk wrote back the next day, “Logistics won’t work this time around.”

Musk, now 54, later was scheduled to visit the island in December 2014, according to a copy of Epstein’s daily agenda released this past September by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. That schedule indicated that Epstein was at his ranch in New Mexico at the time.

“Elon never went. I can tell you that 100%,” a source close to Musk told The Post at the time, going on to claim that the South Africa-born mogul had “no social relationship” with Epstein “whatsoever.”

Spokespeople for Musk’s companies did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment on the latest disclosure.

Musk is among the dozens of powerful business and political figures named in the Justice Department’s mass release of files Friday pursuant to a transparency law passed by Congress last year due to massive public interest in the case.

Attorney General Pam Bondi revived interest in the case by seeming to suggest last February that she was reviewing a client list for illicit sexual services — before issuing a memo in July insisting “no further disclosure would be appropriate,” drawing bipartisan pushback.

Epstein and his girlfriend-turned-madam Ghislaine Maxwell “harmed over one thousand victims,” that DOJ memo said, but “[w]e did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.”

Musk also fanned the flames of public interest in the disgraced financier, claiming last June — during a brief but fiery falling-out with President Trump — that “@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.”

Trump says he broke off his own friendship with Epstein in the early 2000s after the fellow Manhattan and Palm Beach resident poached massage staff from his Mar-a-Lago resort.
