An avalanche of court documents related to late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein are being released to the public after sitting sealed for years.

Dozens of names of the rich, famous and/or powerful, including royalty, politicians, billionaires and famous scientists, appear in the trove that’s thousands of pages deep.

The first batch of Epstein docs dropped last week, starting Jan. 3 — and they just keep coming.

More than 170 people with ties to the multimillionaire sex offender are named in the records, including victims of Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring as well as the disgraced financier’s former employees.

People with ties to the convicted pervert were previously known only as “John Does” and “Jane Does,” and are being unmasked for the first time after a federal judge in December ordered that the records be unsealed.

Epstein’s former attorney and friend Alan Dershowitz defended the sex offender’s associates, saying: “None of us knew about his private life that he kept so secret.”

“You could judge them for having shown bad judgment, but you can’t conclude that any accusations against them are true without hearing the evidence,” the one-time Harvard Law School professor said Tuesday ahead of the first document drop.

Epstein killed himself in a federal jail in Manhattan in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

What we learned from Epstein document drop: Disturbing details, notable names and scope of sicko’s sex trafficking ring

By Alex Oliveira

Nearly one week after a trove of court documents related to Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes began to be unsealed last week, the last cache of photos, files and depositions was released on Tuesday.

Nearly 5,000 pages later, the scope of Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, the network of powerful men he associated with and his methods for luring female victims to prey on have come into sharper focus than ever before.

A number of high-profile names — ranging from ex-Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton to Prince Andrew and a host of Hollywood stars — were scattered throughout the transcripts, legal memos, emails and other records tied to the case.

About 215 documents in total were released, all stemming from a long-settled defamation lawsuit that Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre brought against his madam Ghislaine Maxwell in 2015.

Jeffrey Epstein pleaded Fifth Amendment 500 times, refused to say he knew Ghislaine Maxwell in legal depositions

By Priscilla DeGregory , Emily Crane and Ben Kochman

Pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein pleaded the Fifth Amendment more than 500 times when questioned in 2016 about his role running a sex-trafficking ring — refusing to answer questions as simple as whether he knew Ghislaine Maxwell, where he lived or what his cellphone number was, court papers released Tuesday reveal.

Epstein invoked his right not to incriminate himself over and over during the Sept. 9, 2016, deposition conducted at Epstein’s Palm Beach, Florida, office — dodging questions about whether he lured minors to his mansion for sex and about what Maxwell’s role was in the scheme.

“I’ve been advised by my counsel to assert my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution as to any and all questions that could result in a waiver of my constitutional privileges,” Epstein huffed at the start of the proceeding under questioning from a lawyer for Virginia Giuffre, one of his accusers.

1/9/24 Epstein docs, Epstein pleading the 5th, dump of court files related to Jeffrey Epstein were released Tuesday, including interviews by lawyers with the late pedophile moneyman himself, his right-hand woman Ghislaine Maxwell and former ‘sex slave’ Virginia Roberts Giuffre.
Deposition documents showed Epstein pleading the Fifth repeatedly.

Epstein did respond “Jeffrey Edward Epstein” when asked to state his full name, but refused to answer any other questions.

By Priscilla DeGregory , Emily Crane and Ben Kochman

Another dump of court files related to Jeffrey Epstein were released Tuesday, including interviews by lawyers with the late pedophile moneyman himself, his right-hand woman Ghislaine Maxwell and former ‘sex slave’ Virginia Roberts Giuffre.

The documents add to the thousands of pages of files which have dredged up a renewed scrutiny of how the sex offender leveraged his connections to the rich and powerful to ensnare girls and young women in his web and shield himself from consequences.

The cache of 240 documents, which began being released last week, is part of the long-settled defamation lawsuit that Giuffre brought against Maxwell back in 2015.

A number of high-profile names — ranging from ex-Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton to Prince Andrew and a bevy of Hollywood stars — have been scattered throughout the deposition transcripts, legal memos, emails and other records tied to the case.

Inside the $41M mansion fight that led to Donald Trump’s fallout with Jeffrey Epstein

By Mary Jacob

Two titans clashed in Palm Beach in 2004, each vying for the ultimate prize: the Maison de l’Amitie, an opulent oceanfront manse dripping with grandeur.

Unknown to many, this property became the centerpiece of an intense rivalry forged between former President Donald Trump and the disgraced late financier, Jeffrey Epstein.

Before Epstein’s notoriety exploded onto the world stage, he and Trump moved within the same elite circles, hobnobbing at lavish parties, jetting between destinations and sharing Florida neighborhood space.

However, their relationship took a dramatic turn when both set their sights on acquiring the Maison de l’Amitie, which ironically means “the House of Friendship” in French.

As bankruptcy loomed over this coveted property, which had been owned by nursing home magnate Abe Gosman, Trump and Epstein engaged in a fierce bidding war. Only one man would come out on top — Trump.

Prince Andrew would have won sexual abuse trial, made ‘mistake’ settling, Alan Dershowitz says

By Snejana Farberov

Prince Andrew made a “terrible mistake” by reaching a multimillion-dollar settlement with his sex accuser in a case he could have easily won at trial, a former lawyer for late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein claimed Tuesday.

Alan Dershowitz speculated that it was Andrew’s late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, who had discouraged him from pursuing the case against his longtime accuser, Virginia Roberts Giuffre. 

“I think [Andrew] made a terrible mistake. I suspect he was pressured by his mother to make that mistake,” Dershowitz told Times Radio Tuesday.

“If he had fought that case, I believe he would have won,” said the one-time Harvard Law professor, whom Giuffre also previously accused of having sex with her before saying she “may have made a mistake.”

“I believe the case would have been dismissed on a variety of grounds, but he didn’t want to sit through a deposition, or people around him didn’t want him to sit through a deposition and so he settled the case.”

Jimmy Kimmel calls on Aaron Rodgers to apologize for Epstein comments during scorching monologue: ‘I bet he won’t’

By Leah Bitsky

Jimmy Kimmel wants Aaron Rodgers to apologize for insinuating that the late-night talk show host was “nervous” for the “Epstein List” to come out.

“He said I was hoping it wouldn’t [come out] and that he was going to pop a bottle of something to celebrate when he did,” Kimmel, 56, said on Monday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

“And then it did come out, and of course, my name wasn’t on it and isn’t on it, and won’t ever be on.”

Kimmel clarified that he didn’t know late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, claiming they never even met.

Prince Andrew faces ‘unprecedented’ pressure as there’s ‘not much’ King Charles can do after Epstein documents dump: expert

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Prince Andrew is trodding uncharted waters after being named in the latest Jeffrey Epstein document dump, and it seems as though there’s “not much” his brother, King Charles, can do about it.

The royal family is now facing “unprecedented” pressure, according to a royal commentator, who says the monarch made a “mistake” by inviting the disgraced Duke of York to Sandringham for Christmas.

“We’re only six days into it and the pressure on Prince Andrew and the royal family is now mounting to a level which is almost unprecedented,” royal expert and commentator Charles Rae told GB News.

“We have a King who is now under great pressure to do something about Andrew. There is not much he can do. He’s been stripped of his HRH and he’s not allowed to use it.”

Jeffrey Epstein’s brother lists the evidence he claims feds are covering up about pedophile’s death: exclusive

By Andy Tillett

Despite being the most high-profile prisoner in the US, Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in federal custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York on August 10, 2019.

The financier, awaiting trial on charges of sex-trafficking underage girls, was found in his cell just after 6:30 a.m., having apparently used a length of orange bedsheet tied to the cell’s bunk bed to hang himself.

Throughout the previous night, cameras in the Secure Housing Unit where Epstein was being held weren’t recording, prison guards slept and Epstein was left without a cellmate despite prison psychologists’ direct orders.

Then-Attorney General Bill Barr would later call the situation a “perfect storm of screw-ups.”

By Allie Griffin and Priscilla DeGregory

Google co-founder Sergey Brin vacationed on Jeffrey Epstein’s “pedophile island” with his ex-wife, according to another round of court documents unsealed Monday.

Epstein accuser Sarah Ransome said she met Brin and his fiancée at the time, Anne Wojcicki, on the private island owned by the late financer in a series of 2016 emails to journalist Maureen Callahan, a Post columnist at the time.

Ransome said she would send Callahan a series of photos from her time in Epstein’s circle, including an image of her with Brin and Wojcicki, who divorced in 2015.

Girls on Epstein’s island were given Victoria’s Secret clothes, put through rotation of sex abuse: court docs

By Kyle Schnitzer and Priscilla DeGregory

Girls who were brought to Jeffrey Epstein’s “Pedophile Island” were supplied with swimsuits and nightwear from Victoria’s Secret and forced into a rotation of sexual abuse by the well-connected creep, according to newly unsealed court documents.

Epstein accuser Sarah Ransome detailed in a deposition how the dead financier and his right-hand woman Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly ran a sex-trafficking network, according to the documents released Monday.

“All of the outfits — there were clothes that were provided on the island by Jeffrey Epstein, which were all Victoria’s Secret clothing: bikinis, nightwear,” Ransome said of what she and other girls wore when they were on Epstein’s Little Saint James private isle in the US Virgin Islands.

The girls were forced to alternate pleasing the convicted sex fiend to keep him constantly gratified, Ransome claimed in the deposition.

“We were called on, like, a rotation visit for Jeffrey throughout the day and evening,” she alleged. “I was finished, another girl was called by Ghislaine. And when they had finished, another girl was called.”

“‘Jeffrey wants to see you in his bedroom,’ which meant it’s your turn to be abused. That kind of thing,” she testified.
