This batch will involve the names of additional Epstein associates, alleged perpetrators, alleged co-conspirators, alleged victims, witnesses and former Epstein employees. Several of the “Does” mentioned in the documents are now deceased.
Former President Clinton, who ABC News has learned is identified as “Doe 36,” is mentioned in more than fifty of the redacted filings, according to court records. Several of those sealed or redacted entries are focused on an effort by Giuffre’s lawyers in mid-2016, first reported by ABC News, to subpoena the two-term Democratic president for deposition testimony about his relationship with Epstein.
[Clinton has denied ever being on Epstein’s Pedo Island, and at least some of these mentions are about the legal maneuvering to keep him from testifying in Virginia Giuffre’s lawsuit against Epstein et al. But that’s a lot of mentions for a man who keeps claiming innocence in Epstein’s crimes. We should also keep in mind that someone’s leaking this for a reason, though. Are all of these going to be nothingburgers — or is someone hoping to make this “old news” by the time the public gets access to the whole files? — Ed]
