Factbox-Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to politicians, business titans and other figures

The files include emails and photos linking Epstein to politicians, business leaders, and academics, with some facing resignations or legal scrutiny, Justice Department said.

  • On Feb 2, the U.S. Justice Department released millions of internal documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, warning the trove could include faked images and removing thousands identifying victims.
  • Revealed across the files are emails, photos and notes, including images with faces redacted and a note appearing to bear Donald Trump’s signature, showing Epstein’s ties to prominent figures before and after his 2008 plea.
  • On Jan 30, images show Prince Andrew kneeling over a woman, and UK police said on Feb 2 they review reports involving a veteran British politician whose name surfaced more than 5,000 times in the files.
  • Amid the releases, Peter Mandelson, veteran British politician, apologized to Epstein’s victims, following Summers' resignation from Harvard and OpenAI positions.
  • Gates said the meetings were philanthropy-related and called it a mistake; the files indicate Gates met Epstein repeatedly after his prison term. Several figures deny wrongdoing or say ties were limited.
