The names of dozens of prominent men with alleged links to sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein have been publicly released after court files that formed part of a 2015 case brought by one of Epstein’s main accusers were unsealed.

The depositions and statements were part of a long-settled defamation case brought by Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell, a British socialite who was once Epstein’s girlfriend.

Maxwell was jailed for 20 years in 2022 for sex crimes she committed with Epstein, who died by suicide in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

New York judge Loretta Preska ruled last month the documents could be unsealed, saying there was no legal justification for keeping them private.

The first tranche of documents – running to nearly 950 pages – began to be released on Wednesday night and largely consisted of already public material revealed through nearly two decades of newspaper stories, TV documentaries, interviews, legal cases and books about the Epstein scandal. More papers are expected to be unsealed or unredacted in the coming days.

Dozens of women have accused Epstein of forcing them to provide sexual services to him and his guests at his private Caribbean island and homes he owned in New York, Florida and New Mexico.

The records provided a reminder of how Epstein hobnobbed with famous and powerful figures including bankers, royalty and celebrities. The latest documents include references to men including former United States presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Britain’s Prince Andrew, billionaire Tom Pritzker, and lawyer Alan Dershowitz.

The appearance of the names in the court papers is not evidence of wrongdoing and does not indicate that the men face allegations.

Many have previously denied the claims made or having knowledge of the activities of Epstein who pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008.

Prince Andrew was stripped of most of his royal titles due to his association with Epstein and settled a civil lawsuit with Giuffre last year for an undisclosed sum.

Maxwell, the daughter of British media tycoon Robert Maxwell, is appealing her conviction.

Giuffre accused Maxwell of recruiting her when she was underage for Epstein to abuse.

Preska, who is overseeing the case, ruled that some names would remain confidential, including those of people who were children when Epstein abused them.

I can’t believe Dr Stephen Hawking is associated with one of these disgusting incidents.

I can’t believe Dr Stephen Hawking is associated with one of these disgusting incidents.

The elite of western society including members of the British Royal Family were also there which looks to me that this was more of a intelligence operation trying to turn leading members of entire segments of Western society rather than a couple of rich guys indulging in depravity

Honestly after the bunga bunga parties. I’m not sure what to believe.

I'm actually surprised the list of people is so small. People were expecting a Whose Who of celebrities...but it ended up not happening. Then some of those who were mentioned we find out it was just empty name-dropping.

Jeffrey Epstein boasted of spurious celebrity connections, documents show

Court document released Wednesday confirmed some celebrity connections but also showed late sex offender’s flimsy braggadocio

Court document released Wednesday confirmed some celebrity connections but also showed late sex offender’s flimsy braggadocio

While Jeffrey Epstein counted many rich and powerful men among his associates –including Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew – a court document released on Wednesday suggests the late financier so craved proximity to celebrity that he made spurious boasts about relationships with Hollywood A-listers.

Johanna Sjoberg, an accuser of the late sex offender and financier, claimed in a deposition that he liked to talk about knowing movie stars, such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Cate Blanchett, and that these statements appeared to come across as flimsy braggadocio.

A lawyer asked Sjoberg: “I saw one press report that said you had met Cate Blanchett or Leonardo DiCaprio?”

“I did not meet them, no,” she replied. “When I spoke about them, it was when I was massaging him [Epstein], and he would get off – he would be on the phone a lot at that time, and one time he said: ‘Oh, that was Leonardo,’ or, ‘That was Cate Blanchett, or Bruce Willis.’ That kind of thing.”

“So name-dropping?” the lawyer pressed.

Sjoberg replied: “Yes.”

“So you had not met Cate Blanchett or Leonardo DiCaprio?”

“I have not,” Sjoberg said under further questioning.

“Would you remember if you had?”

“I would hope I would remember,” she said.

“What about Cameron Diaz?” the lawyer pressed.

“No.”

A representative for Leonardo DiCaprio denied any calls between him and Epstein. A representative for Diaz said: “Cameron never met Jeffrey Epstein, nor was she ever in the same place as him or had any association with him whatsoever, regardless of the fact he may or may not have mentioned her name or implied that he knew her.” A representative for Blanchett said that she had never met nor had any calls with Epstein. Representatives for Willis did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The deposition was part of Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre’s defamation lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of sex trafficking related to abuse of young girls by Epstein. Maxwell met Epstein in summer 1991, after she moved to New York around the time her father purchased the New York Daily News.

Sjoberg said that the British publishing heiress lured her into Epstein’s dark web.

While Giuffre settled her lawsuit against Maxwell in 2017, tranches of long-sealed documents in the case have been unsealed over the past several years. Their release stemmed from the Miami Herald and other media organizations’ efforts to make public the filings.

The documents’ discussion of Epstein’s ties to high-profile figures largely reiterate what has already been reported about his cronies, and shed some light on how he wanted to leverage connections. In one document, Epstein told Maxwell to invoke some prominent figures as a defense against Giuffre’s allegations of wrongdoing.

Epstein suggested that an interaction with the late, famous British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking could help clear her, for example. Hawking went to dinner on Epstein’s private isle in the US Virgin Islands in 2006, after participating in a conference on a neighboring island, per prior reports.

“You can issue a reward to any of virginias friends acquaionts family that come forward and help prove her allegations are false the strongest is the clinton dinner, and the new version in the virgin isalnds that stven hawking partica-ted in an underage orgy [sic],” Epstein said in an email to Maxwell.

While Epstein’s proclamations about some celebrities appear questionable, he did associate with numerous entertainers. Sjoberg’s deposition claimed that the late pop star Michael Jackson was at Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion, and that she met the famed illusionist David Copperfield at one of Epstein’s homes.

“Did you ever meet anybody famous when you were with Jeffrey? Sjoberg was asked. “I met Michael Jackson … at [Epstein’s] house in Palm Beach,” she responded, according to the court documents, referring to Epstein’s estate in the exclusive south Florida city.

Sjoberg said “I did not” when asked whether she gave Jackson a massage. Sjoberg said that Copperfield attended dinner and “did some magic tricks”.

“Did you observe David Copperfield to be a friend of Jeffrey Epstein’s?” she was asked. Sjoberg replied in the affirmative.

“Did Copperfield ever discuss Jeffrey’s involvement with young girls with you?” she was also asked.

“He questioned me if I was aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls,” Sjoberg said.

Copperfield, she said in the deposition, didn’t tell her anything more specific related to that matter. “Did he say whether they were teenagers or anything along those lines?” she was also asked.

“He did not,” she said.

Reports predating the documents’ release indicate that the actors Kevin Spacey and comedian Chris Tucker traveled with Epstein on his private plane during a tour of Africa.

Well this is an initial tranche but I agree they would be protecting really big names

If Jeffrey Epstein Had No Client List Then Why Did AG Pam Bondi Tell Reporters the List “Is Sitting on My Desk Right Now to Review – That’s in the Process of Being Reviewed”​

The Swamp wants you to believe—once and for all—that Jeffrey Epstein was nothing more than a lone-wolf pervert who conveniently “killed himself” in a filthy Manhattan jail cell.

Axios dropped a two-page memo this weekend, from President Trump’s DOJ and the newly installed FBI leadership of Director Kash Patel and Deputy Dan Bongino, asserting that:

• Epstein definitively died by suicide;
• No “client list” exists;
• And there is “no evidence” he ever blackmailed the powerful.

The memo reads:

As part of our commitment to transparency, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have conducted an exhaustive review of investigative holdings relating to Jeffrey Epstein. To ensure that the review was thorough, the FBI conducted digital searches of its databases, hard drives, and network drives as well as physical searches of squad areas, locked cabinets, desks, elosets, and other areas where responsive material may have been stored. These searches uncovered a significant amount of material, including more than 300 gigabytes of data and physical evidence.

The files relating to Epstein include a large volume of images of Epstein, images and videos of victims who are either minors or appear to be minors, and over ten thousand downloaded videos and images of illegal child sex abuse material and other pornography. Teams of agents, analysts, attorneys, and privacy and civil liberties experts combed through the digital and documentary evidence with the aim of providing as much information as possible to the public while simultaneously protecting victims. Much of the material is subject to court-ordered sealing. Only a fraction of this material would have been aired publicly had Epstein gone to trial, as the seal served only to protect victims and did not expose any additional third-parties to allegations of illegal wrongdoing. Through this review, we found no basis to revisit the disclosure of those materials and will not permit the release of child pornography.

This systematic review revealed no incriminating “client list.” There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.

Consistent with prior disclosures, this review confirmed that Epstein harmed over one thousand victims. Each suffered unique trauma. Sensitive information relating to these victims is intertwined throughout the materials. This includes specific details such as victim names and likenesses, physical descriptions, places of birth, associates, and employment history.

One of our highest priorities is combatting child exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of those ends.

To that end, while we have labored to provide the public with maximum information regarding Epstein and ensured examination of any evidence in the government’s possession, it is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted.

After a thorough investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10, 2019.

This conclusion is consistent with previous findings, including the August 19, 2019 autopsy findings of the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, the November 2019 position of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York in connection with the investigation of federal correctional officers responsible for guarding Epstein, and the June 2023 conclusions of DOJ’s Office of the Inspector General.

The conclusion that Epstein died by suicide is further supported by video footage from the common area of the Special Housing Unit (SHU) where Epstein was housed at the time of his death. As DOJ’s Inspector General explained in 2023, anyone entering or attempting to enter the tier where Epstein’s cell was located from the SHU common area would have been captured by this footage. The FBI’s independent review of this footage confirmed that from the time Epstein was locked in his cell at around 10:40 pm on August 9, 2019, until around 6:30 am the next morning, nobody entered any of the tiers in the SHU.

During this review, the FBI enhanced the relevant footage by increasing its contrast, balancing the color, and improving its sharpness for greater clarity and viewability.

Fck this cht Bondi needs to be fired. Someone very powerful, obviously more powerful than Orange man, has decided to end this cht to save very powerful elites. I don't wanna hear that Trump is on that list because he would have already been exposed which is much easier than killing him.

Of all media sites they gave this cht to Axios which hates Trump wtf is going on here? Get ready for a distraction you can already see it coming

Looks like John Brennan will be the sacrifice.

He's a scumbag and deserves it but he and others may be the distraction/sacrifice to distract from Epstein.

It took Bongino only 112 days to to go from trusted podcaster to swamp creature. Be interesting to see how much money he comes out of the Trump administration with.

They got to him. You just don't turn into a swamp creature that quickly it takes years working for Gubment to change you especially a guy like Bongino. Bongino was making bank working at his podcast and kept his good reputation he's not throwing it all away for money and being labeled as swamp/establishment.

Either Bondi was lying that she had the files/list on her desk or... who dafuq knows anymore. Who cares not my world anymore I checked out years ago.
