Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton… top figures linked to sex offender Jeffery Epstein in new court document 

In the ongoing narrative of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s connections, court papers in the US have revealed the involvement of high-profile figures, with Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton in the spotlight.

BBC report that the documents are part of the case against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s girlfriend, shed light on the alleged abuse orchestrated by the duo.

“Mr. Clinton appears in a number of the documents,” acknowledging past association with Epstein but vehemently denying any knowledge of criminal activities. Meanwhile, Prince Andrew faces accusations of groping, vehemently denied by Buckingham Palace. The released files touch on Johanna Sjoberg’s claim that Prince Andrew posed for a photo with a puppet labeled “Prince Andrew” while touching her breast.

The saga also involves Michael Jackson and David Copperfield, named in the documents without allegations of wrongdoing. Former President Clinton’s travels on Epstein’s private jet are detailed, emphasizing humanitarian trips in the early 2000s.

The court proceedings include testimony from Maxwell’s lawyer, refuting claims of Clinton visiting Epstein’s private island. Testimonies reveal Epstein’s mention of contacting Donald Trump during travel plans to one of his casinos in 2001, though no wrongdoing is alleged.

Among other names, the documents mention French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, who faced rape charges before his suicide in 2022. Allegations against figures like New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson are present, denied prior to his death.
