Getty Jeffrey Epstein.
The full Jeffrey Epstein documents were released on January 3, naming dozens of associates and crashing the federal website.
Read the full Epstein court documents here. You will have to download them in a .zip file to read them.
Prominent names mentioned in the documents include former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Michael Jackson, magician David Copperfield, and former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. Being named in the documents does not necessarily equate to any wrongdoing, criminal or otherwise. Former President Donald Trump is mentioned in a deposition, but the woman being queried denied ever giving him a massage.
One deposition says a woman working as a massage therapist claimed Epstein told her Clinton “likes them young.” Another witness claimed that singer Michael Jackson visited Epstein’s home.
Who else was a visitor to Jeffrey Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion?
According to one witness:
Michael Jackson.
The site 401Media made the full court documents available for download, writing, “Moments ago, a federal judge unsealed hundreds of pages of documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein, including flight records and unredacted testimony. We are publishing them here because PACER, the federal government’s court records site has crashed, as has DocumentCloud, a service 404 Media uses to upload court documents. Included in the following zip file is all of the files unsealed today, which we were able to download before PACER crashed.”
The names of two people were not included, according to CBS News.
The files were released as part of the defamation suit against Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is now in prison. It was filed by Virginia Giuffre, whose accusations against Prince Andrew previously settled. One court motion in the file says the defamation case “involves Ms. Giuffre’s assertions that she and other females were recruited by Defendant to be sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein under the guise of being ‘massage therapists.'”
Here’s what you need to know:
Former President Bill Clinton Was Mentioned 50 Times in the Jeffrey Epstein Documents
PACERBill Clinton Epstein document.
According to Axios, “Former President Clinton is mentioned more than 50 times in the filings, though the records do not indicate any evidence of illegality on Clinton’s part, and his representatives said they did not object to the unsealing.”
In one key passage, Clinton is mentioned in a motion titled “plaintiff’s non-redacted motion to exceed presumptive ten deposition limit in federal rule civil procedure.” The reference to Clinton comes in a summation of a deposition by Johanna Sjoberg that is contained within the motion. She was hired by Epstein as a massage therapist.
The key passage reads, “Johanna testified Jeffrey told her ‘Clinton likes them young, referring to girls,'” the document says.
The Epstein files also contain a full transcript of Sjoberg’s deposition. It provides the fuller question-and-answer relating to Clinton.
“Do you know if Bill Clinton was a friend of Jeffrey Epstein?” she was asked.
Sjoberg responded: “I knew he had dealings with Bill Clinton. I did not know they were friends until I read the Vanity Fair article about them going to Africa together.”
“Did Jeffrey ever talk to you about Bill Clinton?”
Sjoberg: “He said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.”
In that transcript, Sjoberg said she did not see Clinton on Epstein’s island or in a helicopter with Maxwell. She also was asked if she ever gave former President Donald Trump a massage, and she said “no.” She denied having sex with lawyer Alan Dershowitz in the back of a limo.
A court motion also says that Maxwell “indicated that she lacked recollection of or was otherwise unable to specifically answer the following questions,” and listed, “Whether Defendant could recall the purpose of a trip to Thailand with Epstein and former President Clinton was.”
A spokesperson for Clinton said in a previous statement that the former president did not know anything about Epstein’s “terrible crimes.”
An email from Epstein to Maxwell also mentioned Clinton. In it, he told Maxwell she could “issue a reward” to any of Giuffre’s family or friends who could “come forward and help prove her allegations are false the strongest is the clinton dinner, and the new version in the virgin islands” that Steven Hawking participated in an “underage orgy.”
Another document sought Clinton’s deposition. The passage reads:
In a 2011 interview, Ms. Giuffre mentioned former President Bill Clinton’s close personal relationship with Defendant and Jeffrey Epstein. While Ms. Giuffre made no allegations of illegal actions by Bill Clinton, Ms. Maxwell in her deposition raised Ms. Giuffre’s comments about President Clinton as one of the ‘obvious lies’ to which she was referring in her public statement that formed the basis of this suit. Apart from the Defendant and Mr. Epstein, former President Clinton is a key person who can provide information about his close relationship with Defendant and Mr. Epstein and disapprove Ms. Maxwell’s claims.
President Donald Trump Is Mentioned in the Documents, But Sjoberg Denied Having Sexual Contact With Him or Giving Him a Massage

The mentions of Trump also come in Sjoberg’s deposition.
She was asked, “How did it come to be that you were in a casino in Atlantic City?”
Sjoberg responded, “We, as we were flying, Jeffrey said, Why don’t you go sit in the cockpit to check out the landing? So we were sitting there, and the pilots told me to go back and tell him that we can’t land in New York and that we were going to have to land in Atlantic City.”
She continued, “Jeffrey said, Great, we’ll call up Trump and we’ll go to — I don’t recall the name of the casino, but — we’ll go to the casino.”
“And what happened with an ID issue?”
“All I knew is that she was not going to be allowed to gamble, and so I spent time with her. We were just walkin around. I don’t remember what we did. Because either she didn’t have an ID or she was too young. I don’t remember specifically why. I just knew that she could not gamble.”
She was also asked, “Did you ever massage Donald Trump?”
Sjoberg responded, “No.”
She also responded “no” to a series of questions asking whether she had sexual contact with people, including Trump.
Later in the deposition, she was asked, “And do you recall where you flew when you went to — when you traveled that first time with Jeffrey Epstein?”
“We left from Palm Beach and landed in Atlantic City for a few hours because there was a storm in New York, and then got back on the plane a
10 few hours later and landed in Teterboro.”
“And you said that you recall landing in Atlantic City. Did you go into Atlantic City?”
“Yes, went to one of Trump’s casinos.”
“Did you actually go into the casino itself?”
“Yes.”
“Do you recall Virginia — at the time Virginia Roberts being present with you?”
“Yes.”
“Do you recall if she went into the casino?”
“She was underage. I did not know anything about how old you had to be to gamble legally. I just knew she could not get in because of an ID
24 issue. So she and I did not gamble.”
Prince Andrew, Former Governor Bill Richardson & Magician David Copperfield Are Also Mentioned in the Epstein Documents

The Sjoberg memo also mentions other people, including Prince Andrew, magician David Copperfield and Bill Richardson, the former New Mexico governor, who is now deceased.
“Johanna confirmed that she witnessed Virginia when she was seventeen (17) in Jeffrey Epstein’s New York mansion with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell. Johanna also testified that Prince Andrew sat with Virginia and Johanna and took a picture with a puppet in his image that had its hand and Prince Andrew’s hand on their respective breasts,” the motion alleges.
The same document mentions magician David Copperfield. “David Copperfield was at a dinner at Epstein’s and there was another girl present who looked young and Johanna asked what school she went to and Johanna did not recognize the school name as being a college and she said it was possible it was a high school aged girl. Johanna said Copperfield ‘questioned me if I was aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls.’”
The document also states of Sjoberg’s deposition, “She said she recalls that Defendant went to dinner with Governor Bill Richardson one time when Johanna was visiting the ranch in New Mexico.”
Guiffre’s deposition says:
“Ghislaine Maxwell told you to give a massage to Prince Andrew, correct?”
“Correct.”
“Ghislaine Maxwell told you to give a massage to Bill Richardson, correct?”
“Correct.”
She was also asked, “You had sex with Jean Luc Brunel at many places is what you’re saying, correct?” Brunel is a deceased French modeling scout.
“I was sent to Jean Luc Brunel at many places to have sex with him.”
Guiffre was asked: “Other than Glenn Dubin, Prince Andrew, Jean Luc Brunel, Bill Richardson, another prince, the large hotel chain owner and Marvin Minsky, is there anyone else that Ghislaine Maxwell directed you to go have sex with?” Minsky is a deceased computer scientist.
“I am definitely sure there is. But can I remember everybody’s name? No.”
Prince Andrew & Bill Clinton Were Further Mentioned in an Email Written by Ghislaine Maxwell
PACERGhislaine Maxwell email.
One of the first documents released also contains a reference to Clinton and Prince Andrew.
One 2016 email from gmaxl@ellmax.com to Philip Barden and Ross Gow reads, “I have already suffered such a terrible and painful loss over the last few days that I can’t even see what life after press he’ll even looks like – statements that don’t address all just lead to more questions ..what is my relationship to Clinton? Andrew on and on.” This is an apparent reference to former President Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew.
This appears to be an email from Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell to her lawyer and press person, Telegraph reported.

Prince Andrew is under increasing pressure after a series of damaging revelations about him, including criticism over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The email continues, “I am out of my depth to understanding defamation and other legal hazards and don’t want to end up in a lawsuit aimed at me from anyone if I can help it. Apparently even saying Virginia is a lier has hazard! I have never been in a suit criminal or civil and want it to stay that way.”
The Jeffrey Epstein Documents Name Billionaires Glenn Dubin & Tom Pritzker, Among Others

Not all of the names in the released documents were people involved in perpetrating alleged criminal activity. For example, one court motion names Johanna Sjoberg but says, “Defendant refused to answer questions about her knowledge that Johanna Sjoberg was hired to work for Epstein and provided massages.”
A transcript of a deposition of Maxwell contains another name in this exchange: “Did you ever instruct Johanna to massage Glenn Dubin?” Her answer: “I don’t believe — I have no recollection of it.”
@AspenInstitute More allegations by Virginia Giuffre –
She was trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell to have sex with Prince Andrew.
Maxwell directed her to have sex with billionaire hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin.
Guiffre’s deposition is also contained in the files.
“Okay. So Glenn — Ghislaine Maxwell told you to go give a massage to Glenn Dubin?” she was asked.
“Correct,” Guiffre responded.
“That’s your testimony?”
“That is my testimony.”
CNN reported that Dubin and his wife previously released a statement that said, ”Glenn and Eva Dubin are outraged by the allegations against them in the unsealed court records and categorically reject them.”
Another person named is billionaire Tom Pritzker.
Victim Virginia Giuffre states she slept with billionaire Tom Pritzker (another John Doe) “once”

hello @AspenInstitute
According to Forbes, “Glenn Dubin co-founded multi-strategy hedge fund Highbridge Capital in 1992.” He is worth $2.9 billion, Forbes reported.
Epstein was an accused sex trafficker, financier, and friend to many a prominent person over the years. He died of an apparent suicide at a Manhattan jail in 2019.
According to 401Media, “We have not reviewed the documents in full but they contain incident reports, unredacted testimony, emails, and other pieces of evidence in a civil case against Ghislaine Maxwell.”
A letter in the zip file from attorney Sigrid McCauley to the judge reads, “Pursuant to the Court’s December 18, 2023, unsealing order, and following conferral with Defendant, Plaintiff files this set of documents ordered unsealed. The filing of these documents ordered unsealed will be done on a rolling basis until completed. This filing also excludes documents pertaining to Does 105 (see December 28, 2023, Email Correspondence with Chambers), 107, and 110 (see ECF No. 1319), while the Court’s review of those documents is ongoing.”
