Jeffrey Epstein FBI Files
Jeffrey Edward Epstein (January 20, 1953 - August 10, 2019) was a convicted sex offender and financier. Epstein began his career in finance at the investment bank Bear Stearns, before forming his own firm, J. Epstein & Co. Until his conviction for sex crimes in 2008, Epstein was a well-connected multimillionaire who moved among the financial, political, and cultural elite of society.
Because of the number of redactions and pages withheld by the FBI, the main value of this collection are the newspaper clippings the FBI decided to preserve.
In 2005, the Palm Beach police in Florida began investigating Epstein after a parent complained that he molested her 14-year-old daughter. Epstein eventually pleaded guilty and was convicted in a Florida state court in 2008 of soliciting a prostitute and of procuring an under 18 girl for prostitution. He served 13 months in custody with work release, as part of a plea deal, where federal officials had identified 36 girls as young as 14 years old who had been molested.
Epstein was arrested again on July 6, 2019, on federal charges for sex trafficking of minors in Florida and New York.
He died on August 10, 2019, reportedly after hanging himself in his Manhattan prison cell. Three weeks before, Epstein had been found unconscious in his jail cell with injuries to his neck and was placed on suicide watch, but was later removed from the watch.
After his death, President Donald Trump implied through a retweet that President Bill Clinton was involved with his death, suggesting that Epstein was murdered; other conspiracy theories about his death quickly emerged online.
