A lengthy catalog of individuals associated with the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is anticipated to be revealed in the upcoming days.
These revelations may provide fresh insights into the sex trafficking network orchestrated by Epstein, who passed away in 2019, along with his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. The disgraced millionaire had associations with prominent figures from the realms of politics, business, and royalty.
A judge has ordered the unsealing of court documents linked to a lawsuit involving Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison term for crimes committed with Epstein. The lawsuit, brought by Virginia Giuffre, one of Maxwell’s accusers, initially kept the names under court-ordered seal. However, a recent ruling by a judge in New York allows for their disclosure.
The identities are being revealed under the settled lawsuit against Maxwell, the daughter of a British media tycoon. The lawsuit was initiated by Virginia Giuffre, and the names were initially kept confidential under a court-ordered seal. However, a recent ruling by a judge in New York allows for their disclosure.
Judge Loretta Preska noted that many individuals named in the lawsuit have already been publicly identified by the media or in Maxwell’s criminal trial. She added that many others “did not raise an objection” to the release of the documents. Some names on the list will remain sealed, including those belonging to child victims.
The disclosed names could involve individuals accused of wrongdoing, accusers, and potential witnesses. Prince Andrew is expected to be on the list, with allegations made by Johanna Sjoberg claiming he groped her in Epstein’s apartment. Bill Clinton is mentioned more than 50 times in the court documents, but there is no implication of illegality.
Jeffrey Epstein, a millionaire with connections to high-profile figures, died in jail in 2019 while awaiting federal sex-trafficking charges. His death was ruled a suicide. He had previously been convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor.
