The Vault: The Epstein Files

The House Judiciary Committee Democratic staff report argues that the publicly released Epstein records, FBI interviews, survivor accounts and congressional investigative material establish more than enough evidence to justify a renewed criminal investigation into Donald Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and the broader Epstein network. The 53-page report focuses heavily on the overlapping...

Newly released emails show that the White House was directly involved in preparing the July 2025 DOJ-FBI memorandum that declared there was no evidence to justify investigations of additional uncharged individuals connected to Jeffrey Epstein and that no further disclosure of Epstein material was warranted. The correspondence emerged through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit brought by the Demo...

New Mexico House Speaker Javier Martínez says he will not appoint a replacement to the state’s Epstein “Truth Commission” after Republican Rep. Andrea Reeb resigned from the Legislature and the commission earlier in October. The bipartisan investigative panel was created to examine Jeffrey Epstein’s activities in New Mexico, particularly at Zorro Ranch, and was originally designed as a four-member...

JPMorgan’s internal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, known as “Project Jeep,” did not begin until 2019, after Epstein had been arrested on federal sex-trafficking charges and the bank’s long relationship with him was becoming a major public liability. Court filings showed that senior JPMorgan officials ordered an expanded review of Epstein, his related parties, his relationship with former exec...

Jes Staley was not simply Jeffrey Epstein’s senior contact inside JPMorgan; bank records show that he was also closely tied to Ghislaine Maxwell’s relationship with the institution. Staley became the most senior JPMorgan executive responsible for Epstein’s relationship with the private bank, with former executives describing Epstein as effectively “Jes Staley’s client.” Internal records concerning...

Jeffrey Epstein’s operation had many of the characteristics prosecutors routinely examine in a RICO case: a long-running enterprise, multiple participants with distinct roles, repeated criminal conduct, interstate and international activity, financial infrastructure, recruiters, employees, property managers, lawyers, bankers and others who helped keep the machine functioning. Epstein did not opera...

Alan Dershowitz said he was still “anxious” to testify before the House Oversight Committee about Jeffrey Epstein, but his eagerness looked considerably less convincing after his scheduled appearance abruptly collapsed. Dershowitz had publicly volunteered for months to testify under oath and on video, portraying himself as someone ready to confront the record and explain what he knew about Epstein...

A federal magistrate judge recommended allowing a lawsuit brought by more than 30 Jeffrey Epstein survivors against the FBI to move forward, at least for now, rejecting the government’s attempt to immediately throw the case out on statute-of-limitations and jurisdictional grounds. The women alleged that FBI agents in New York, Florida and elsewhere repeatedly received credible information about Ep...

Day six of Tyler Robinson’s preliminary hearing, held September 1, 2026, centered on closing arguments and the prosecution’s claim that the evidence easily cleared Utah’s probable-cause standard. Deputy Utah County Attorney Ryan McBride argued that the state had built its case through four overlapping categories of evidence: surveillance footage placing Robinson at Utah Valley University, DNA reco...

Day five of Tyler Robinson’s preliminary hearing focused heavily on the defense effort to weaken the prosecution’s DNA evidence. The defense called ATF DNA Section Chief Caitlin Oliver, who had performed testing on evidence including the rifle prosecutors said was used to kill Charlie Kirk and a Dremel tool recovered from Robinson’s home. Oliver acknowledged that DNA testing could not establish wh...

House Judiciary Committee Democrats are calling for the appointment of an independent special counsel to investigate Donald Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, potential Epstein co-conspirators, and what Democrats characterize as a Justice Department effort to obstruct or shut down further investigation. The demand came in a new committee staff report released October 26, which compiled all...

Glenn and Eva Dubin are back in the news, renewing scrutiny of their long-standing relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and raising fresh questions about why the couple remained comparatively insulated from the fallout surrounding his network for so many years. Unlike peripheral figures whose names surfaced briefly in contact books or social circles, the Dubins had a much deeper connection to Epstein...

Prince Andrew’s Epstein scandal was not something that simply happened to him; it grew out of a series of decisions he made himself. He maintained a friendship with Jeffrey Epstein even after Epstein had pleaded guilty in Florida to soliciting prostitution from a minor, stayed at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse in 2010, and was photographed walking with him in Central Park during that same visit. Th...

Epstein survivors have publicly challenged Lesley Groff's testimony before Congress, arguing that her portrayal of herself as someone who knew nothing about Epstein's abuse operation is fundamentally incompatible with their experiences. During her June 2026 testimony, Groff described Epstein as a "master manipulator" who kept his criminal conduct hidden from her and insisted that she never knowing...

Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested by the FBI on July 2, 2020, at a secluded property in Bradford, New Hampshire, nearly a year after Jeffrey Epstein died in federal custody. Prosecutors alleged that Maxwell had played a central role in Epstein’s abuse operation during the 1990s, accusing her of helping identify, recruit, groom and transport underage girls for Epstein to sexually abuse. The indictment...

If Donald Trump were to issue a presidential pardon to Ghislaine Maxwell for her federal crimes, the doctrine of dual sovereignty could allow the state of New York to pursue separate charges against her without violating the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment. This legal principle recognizes that the federal government and state governments are distinct sovereigns, each with the authori...

In her April 29, 2016 second amended supplemental discovery response, Virginia Giuffre pushed back aggressively against Ghislaine Maxwell’s effort to obtain an enormous range of information about her personal life, allegations, relationships and communications. Giuffre argued that many of Maxwell’s interrogatories violated the Southern District of New York’s local discovery rules because they went...
