  In December 2017, after BuzzFeed journalist Peter Aldhous contacted Krauss about six incidents of alleged sexual misconduct, Krauss sent multiple drafts of refutations to Epstein and sought his advice on how to respond — turning to a convicted sex offender for counsel on his own misconduct allegations.

  Epstein coached Krauss's response strategy, recommending a short general denial that allegations 'are false' and later advising him to 'concentrate on your point by point refutation,' comparing accusers to people claiming to have seen flying saucers.

  The NYDFS consent order found Deutsche Bank onboarded Epstein in August 2013 knowing his full criminal history. A memo to senior management documented his 2007 conviction, 18-month prison sentence, and 17 out-of-court civil settlements. The initial account approval bypassed the regional reputational risk committee entirely.

  Over five years (2013-2018), Deutsche Bank processed millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein's trusts, including payments to women described as 'tuition fees' and large cash withdrawals structured to avoid reporting requirements. Monitoring conditions imposed by the reputational risk committee were never transmitted to the account team.

  NY regulators found that 'while Deutsche Bank had a fully staffed and functioning compliance operation, it was as if it was designed only for show' — the bank's compliance system existed on paper but failed to actually monitor Epstein's accounts.

  Deutsche Bank was fined $150 million by NYDFS (July 2020) and paid $75 million to settle a class-action lawsuit by Epstein's victims (2023), totaling over $225 million in penalties and settlements. The DFS called the bank's conduct 'inexcusably' deficient.

“Let me assure you that this case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein. Any co-conspirators should not rest easy.”

• 📋

  Nine months after this warning, no additional co-conspirators had been publicly charged. The House Oversight Committee later questioned Barr about co-conspirator investigations that were 'conducted or declined' under his leadership.
• 📄

  An email sent to the DOJ alleged that Barr was actively misleading the public about the circumstances of Epstein's death and that the camera system at MCC could be manipulated to allow individuals to go undetected.

  Barr initially indicated he would recuse from the case due to his former law firm Kirkland & Ellis's role in negotiating Epstein's 2008 plea deal, then reversed that decision without full public explanation.

  Police had identified multiple underage victims ages 14-17, gathered physical evidence from trash pulls at Epstein's home including message slips with victims' phone numbers, and built what they considered a strong case warranting serious felony charges.

• 📋

  After Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act on November 19, 2025, his own Department of Justice withheld approximately 53 pages of FBI interview documents that contained allegations against Trump from the public database. DOJ spokeswoman Natalie Baldassarre called the documents 'untrue and sensationalist claims against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election.'
• 📄

  NPR's February 2026 investigation identified the approximately 53 missing pages and confirmed they contained an accuser's FBI interview naming Trump. The story prompted bipartisan Congressional inquiry into the selective withholding.
• 📄

  An FBI FOIA deleted page information sheet (FOI/PA# 1203982-1) lists 44 deleted pages with exemption codes b6, b7C, b7D, and b7E, covering pages 75-81, 103-108, 112-115, 138-144, 148-155, 169-170, 173, 175, 177-179, 183-184, 205, and 207-208.

Epstein was actively involved in media strategy concerning Trump as recently as December 2018.

  In a February 1, 2019 email to Michael Wolff, Epstein drafted talking points about Trump: 'worked at Mara Lago. Trump knew of it. and came to my house many times during that period.' Epstein also detailed the $36M Gosman house purchase by Trump, the Rybolovlev flip for ~$100M, and claimed Trump 'has no money.'

  2019-02-01
• ✉

  A March 2016 email from Wolff to Epstein proposed using Trump as a public relations vehicle: 'Trump offers an ideal opportunity. It's a chance to make the story about something other than you.' Wolff suggested Epstein write an op-ed and do 'a high profile television interview (Charlie Rose, I'd say)' as part of an anti-Trump media strategy.

  2016-03-18
• ✉

  Epstein's 2011 email to Ghislaine Maxwell described Trump as 'that dog that hasn't barked' and referenced a redacted individual who 'spent hours at my house with him,' suggesting ongoing awareness of Trump's activities and silence about their mutual connections years after the claimed break.

  2011-04-02
• ✉

  A 2019 Epstein email to Wolff stated: 'Of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.' This claim, released by the House Oversight Committee in November 2025, implies direct knowledge and personal communication between Trump and Maxwell about trafficking activity.

“I met Mark Kaminski only after Korshunova died, through someone named Kira while making arrangements for the wake.”

• ✉

  By January 2011, Kaminski had introduced Regina Feoktistova to Elkholy for professional management. Elkholy drafted a formal release letter terminating her contract that referenced Korshunova's death and Kaminski's involvement in detail, demonstrating a business relationship far deeper than a chance meeting at a wake.

  2011-01-06
• ✉

  On November 27, 2009, Epstein asked Elkholy: 'is reginas boyfriend the same as ruslanas?' Elkholy knew the answer immediately, indicating he had been tracking both relationships and had detailed knowledge of Kaminski's connections to both women.

  2009-11-27

  Elkholy was handling Korshunova's estate final accounting at the U.S. Embassy in Luxembourg in October 2009. A man who claims to have met the boyfriend only at a wake was, sixteen months later, executing the dead woman's estate in a European tax haven.

  In November 2016, Elkholy pitched Epstein on acquiring Joy Models in Sao Paulo and satellite agencies in Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Poland 'so that there's always a steady stream of fresh new faces.'

“President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein's airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa.”

• ✈

  Flight logs subpoenaed in the Giuffre v. Maxwell case document Clinton on 26 individual flight legs aboard Epstein's aircraft, far exceeding the "four trips" claimed. Some legs involved multi-stop itineraries.
• 🗣

  Epstein's pilot Larry Visoski testified at the Maxwell trial in November 2021 that Clinton flew on Epstein's plane, corroborating the flight logs and providing eyewitness confirmation.

  2021-11-30Source →

  Clinton's own spokesman acknowledged the trips included large entourages and multiple stops, which helps explain how "four trips" could involve 26+ flight legs. However, the framing was widely seen as minimizing the extent of contact.

• 📋

  The dinner took place in December 2010, two years after Epstein's widely-publicized 2008 felony conviction for soliciting an underage girl. As a veteran political journalist and former White House communications director, claiming insufficient 'due diligence' about a convicted sex offender hosting the dinner is implausible.
