Investigative reporting on the Epstein case. Every claim cites specific documents from our corpus of 1.6 million court filings, depositions, and government records.
Christmas Day 2017 emails show Epstein reassuring Mottola — "You are safe" — after the music mogul panicked over a victims' attorney, then fabricated a cover story for his wife. Nearly 800 documents trace years of gifts, visits, and architectural plans.
DOJ-released EFTA documents contain email exchanges between Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein spanning 2009 to 2012. The correspondence, now part of the public record, includes references to social engagements, property arrangements, and business introductions that have prompted a UK Metropolitan Police investigation.
EFTA emails reveal a May 2018 dinner at Epstein's Manhattan townhouse planned for Ehud Barak, Steve Bannon, with an invitation extended to Noam Chomsky — three figures from opposite ends of the political spectrum, all connected through a convicted sex trafficker.
Darren Indyke, the attorney who controlled the movement of Jeffrey Epstein's funds across 140 bank accounts and $1.3 billion in flagged wire transfers, is scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee on March 5, 2026. He has never faced criminal charges.
DOJ documents reveal Epstein ran a recruitment pipeline through Russian and Ukrainian modeling agencies, maintained connections to FSB-linked officials, and pursued relationships with Kremlin-adjacent oligarchs while the DEA tracked $50 million in suspicious wire transfers.
Leon Black paid Jeffrey Epstein at least $170 million through Virgin Islands shell companies called Southern Trust and Financial Trust. But the money did not flow in a single stream. Harvard wire transfers routed through Martin Nowak, back-to-back scheduling blocks with Epstein's other contacts, FBI witness reports alleging abuse, and a Senate investigation that found $12 million more than Apollo's own review revealed a relationship built on far more than financial advice.
A systematic review of thousands of pages of DOJ-released documents reveals Peter Mandelson did not simply know Jeffrey Epstein. He served as Epstein's personal intermediary to Oleg Deripaska, arranged a Russian visa through Deripaska's office, coordinated strategy around the Prince Andrew scandal, exchanged messages about an upcoming EUR 500 billion bailout while serving in cabinet, and provided confidential political intelligence. Bank transfers, dozens of personal emails, scheduling notes, and financial records for his partner confirm a relationship far deeper than Mandelson has publicly acknowledged.
In December 2017, cybersecurity researcher Vincenzo Iozzo asked Jeffrey Epstein about Altpoint Capital and its CEO Guerman Aliev: "Allegedly they are managing Russian money?" Five weeks later, Aliev visited Epstein's home. Altpoint, backed by sanctioned oligarch Vladimir Potanin, had acquired 93% of Ford Models and controlled data centers hosting Maryland's election systems. The emails, financial records, and compliance documents in the EFTA collection trace a network where Russian oligarch wealth, a modeling agency now accused of trafficking, U.S. election infrastructure, and Epstein's circle of hackers and fixers all intersected.
NPR's forensic comparison of serial numbers across three DOJ datasets found at least 53 pages of FBI interview records missing from the public Epstein files. The absent documents relate to two women who alleged sexual abuse by both Epstein and Trump when they were minors. Both Republican and Democratic leaders on the House Oversight Committee have pledged to investigate.
A three-hour audio recording released in the DOJ's January 30, 2026 disclosure captures Jeffrey Epstein and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak in an extended, informal conversation about immigration strategy, geopolitics, and mutual acquaintances. Barak's remark about 'young, beautiful girls' and his plan for 'selective immigration' have triggered a political crisis in Israel.
Former President Bill Clinton sat for a closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee on February 27, 2026, at his home in Chappaqua, New York. The session made him the first former president to testify before a congressional panel since Gerald Ford in 1983. Clinton faced questions about 38 documented flights on Epstein's aircraft, correspondence between Epstein and the Clinton Foundation, and the nature of his relationship with the convicted sex trafficker.
Les Wexner was deposed for five hours at his Ohio mansion on February 18, 2026. He called Epstein a 'world-class con man,' denied being his friend despite signed cards saying otherwise, and his lawyer was caught on a hot mic whispering 'I will f---ing kill you' after too many long answers.
