Massive Epstein DOJ Leak Drops Wild Claims
The Department of Justice has released a massive batch of documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein. Reporters are already digging. The files are huge. Expect more revelations and lots of questions.
Officials say the release comes under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The number being reported is staggering: millions of pages. That volume will take time to process. But a few explosive items have already been picked out and shared.
One strand centers on emails that appear to discuss a meeting arranged for Prince Andrew in 2010. Media outlets referencing the newly released material say Epstein suggested a 26-year-old Russian woman as a dinner companion for the then-Duke of York.
Telegram reported:
“In emails to a contact listed as the ‘The Duke’, the convicted sex abuser wrote: “I have a friend who i think you might enjoy having dinner with” her name is irina she will be london 20-24 [sic].”
In the same batch of messages, Epstein allegedly clarified the woman as “26, russian, clevere [sic] beautiful, trustworthy and yes she has your email”. The files also include a brief exchange: “Andrew: How are you? Good to be free? Epstein: …great to be free of many things”
Another set of notes that’s drawing attention mentions Bill Gates. In a memo-style entry, Epstein appears to write about a falling out and references a private health matter. The entry reads exactly:
“’TO add insult to the injury you them [sic] implore me to please delete the emails regarding your std, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your penis’,” the email reads.
These snippets are coming from documents now public. They are allegations contained in the files. They are not verdicts. Neither Prince Andrew nor Bill Gates have been proven guilty of new crimes in relation to these notes based on the release alone.
Journalists and researchers will be parsing the records for context, corroboration, and timestamps. Many items will need verification. Expect slow, careful work and more headlines as teams sift through the material.
For now, treat these claims as part of a larger trove of documents. The release raises questions. It does not settle them.
