Pictures purportedly showing girls or young women on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island in 2006 surfaced in Monday’s most recent release of his files; both he and his longtime companion and madam have denied being there at the time.
Virginia Giuffre, an Epstein victim, and Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex trafficker and the disgraced financier’s longtime girlfriend and madam, had the papers sealed or redacted in a 2015 lawsuit, Fox News noted.
Epstein accuser Sarah Ransome included the images in a filing; she did not participate in the proceedings but described Epstein’s “massage network” and said that victims called Maxwell “Mamma bear.”
According to Giuffre’s legal team, the images “unequivocally” prove that Maxwell was on Epstein’s island when she deposed under oath that she was “hardly around.”
