What’s been learned — and is still unknown — after release of some Epstein files

Epstein files: Multiple Clinton photos, few Trump mentions so far

U.S. Department of Justice releases hundreds of Epstein files — but not all of them

This update includes graphic language referencing sexual assault.

I've found a letter Epstein wrote to what appears to be sex offender Larry Nassar, a doctor who worked for the U.S. Women's national gymnastics team and was convicted of assaulting hundreds of young athletes.

The handwritten card, which appears to have been sent sometime in August 2019 according to the accompanying prison mail document, references Trump.

Epstein tells Nassar that he will know by the time he receives this letter that he has "taken the 'short route' home" — a possible reference to his suicide. Epstein died in his prison cell on Aug. 10 of that year.

"Good luck! We shared one thing … our love & caring for young ladies and the hope they reach their full potential," Epstein wrote.

The letter continues: "Our president also shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

The letter is signed: "Life is unfair. Yours, J. Epstein."

J.P. Tasker

In an undated email, Maxwell told what appears to be Doug Band, a former counsellor and chief adviser to Bill Clinton in his post-White House years, that she wants to have dinner with him.

She is writing to him on what appears to be an official government email address.

"We'll have the slutty Spanish girl which will be nicely counter balanced by the cool poised Swedish type," Maxwell wrote to Band.

"Let me know when you next go to Europe as I do have some interesting and fun friends that you could hook up with."

Several photos of Clinton with what appears to be young women were released last Friday in the first tranche of Epstein files.

Clinton has not been accused of wrongdoing by survivors of Epstein's abuse, and he has denied knowledge of the late financier's sex offences.

In another February 2002 email, the person believed to be Mountbatten-Windsor is again corresponding with Maxwell about an upcoming trip to Peru.

Maxwell relayed that a contact in Peru was asking about what kind of "girls" he wanted while in the country.

"About the girls... How old is he?" the Peruvian asks Maxwell. "I doubt it that he will find someone."

Later, "A" tells Maxwell: "As for girls well I leave that entirely to you and" the contact.

Maxwell responds to "A" that she was only able to find him what she calls "appropriate friends."

"So sorry to dissapoint you, however the truth must be told. I have only been able to find appropriate friends," she writes in an August 2001 email.

Hours later, "A" responds: "Distraught!"

Good morning. I'm J.P. Tasker, a reporter working in Washington, D.C., sorting through this latest Epstein files dump.

The batch includes an email from someone with the name The Invisible Man and initialed "A" — widely believed to be the former British prince Andrew Mountbatten Windsor — to Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's co-conspirator who participated in his sex crimes.

In the August 2001 email, "A" recounts being tired after a full day of summer activities with his daughters at Balmoral, the Royal Family's Scottish estate. He quickly pivots to asking Maxwell if she has found him any "inappropriate friends" in the U.S.

"How's L.A.? Have you found me some new inappropriate friends? Let me know when you are coming over as I am free from 25th August until 2nd Sept. And want to go somewhere hot and sunny with some fun people before having to put my nose firmly to the grindstone for the Fall. Any ideas gratefully received!" he wrote, signing off with "See ya, A xxx."

King Charles stripped his brother of his remaining royal titles, military ranks and patronages earlier this year.

The case specifically against Epstein had already been closed when an assistant U.S. Attorney sent an email dated Jan. 8, 2020, about Trump's repeated travel with the sex offender.

Epstein had been charged with conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors and sex trafficking of minors in the early 2000s in Florida and New York.

But he was found dead in Aug. 10, 2019 after an apparent suicide in a New York jail.

More than two weeks later, on Aug. 29, a judge formally ended the criminal case against him.

But the attorney general at the time, William Barr, had promised that the Justice Department would continue to pursue any potential co-conspirators who enabled Epstein to carry out the sexual assaults.

One of those was Ghislaine Maxwell, formerly Epstein's girlfriend. She was arrested in July 2020 and charged with sex crimes, and accused of helping recruit underage girls for Epstein. Maxwell was later convicted and is currently serving a 20-year sentence.

The latest release includes around 29,000 pages, with many redactions, and dozens of video clips, including several purporting to be shot inside a prison, according to Reuters. Epstein was found dead in 2019 after an apparent suicide in a New York jail.

It comes a few days after the Trump administration published a large cache of Epstein files in an attempt to comply with a new law, the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act, forcing disclosure on the politically fraught topic.

The releases on Friday and Saturday contained extensive redactions, angering Democrats and some Republicans.

Epstein files: Multiple Clinton photos, few Trump mentions so far

The U.S. Department of Justice released thousands of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein with many redactions. Former U.S. President Bill Clinton is among the most prominent people in this set of materials and there are few mentions of U.S. President Donald Trump.

Former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who appears in many of the Epstein documents released late last week, is also expected to be mentioned in this latest batch.

Monday, Clinton spokesperson Angel Ureña issued a statement urging the immediate release of any remaining materials that refer to Clinton, including photographs.

"Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what or why. But we do know this," Ureña said, adding, "We need no such protection."

Ureña said there is "widespread suspicion" the Justice Department is "using selective releases to imply wrongdoing about individuals who have already been repeatedly cleared by the very same Department of Justice." He did not detail who harboured that suspicion.

At the Mar-a-Lago event yesterday evening, Trump called Clinton a "big boy. He can handle it."

But at a news conference earlier in the day he bemoaned the pictures being released with the documents.

"I don't like pictures of Bill Clinton being shown. I don't like pictures of others being shown, it's a terrible thing," Trump said.

The U.S. Department of Justice has just issued a statement, saying that some of the latest documents released from the Epstein files contained "untrue and sensationalist claims" against Trump.

It said those claims were submitted to the FBI before the 2020 U.S. Election.

"To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already," the DOJ said in a post on X.

It's unclear which documents the department referred to — whether that is the email from the U.S. Attorney or other files contained in the release.
