Serial rapist and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s list of contacts has remained one of the most controversial topics. It was first published by Gawker in 2015 following a court case. This little black book was 97 pages long and stored over 1571 names including the elites of fashion, corporate, technology, science, politics, entertainment, education, press, and more industries, as per Wall Street Journal.
Although the book was opened decades ago the names of Epstein’s connections have remained sparse. The news outlets have focused on well-known personalities such as Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Woody Allen more than friends such as Kenneth Starr, who had a certain influence in backing Jeffrey Epstein’s brutal habits.
Following decades of investigations and lawsuits, the Manhattan court has ordered to release of hundreds of names mentioned in previous court documents related to Epstein on January 1, 2024. Before those names are released, let’s take a look at the notorious criminal’s former associates and where they are now.

Before we dive into the list of names who were formerly associated with Epstein in professional or personal ways, we would like to mention that these personalities may not have any connection with the crimes of Epstein. The late American financer had a habit of collecting people and has mentioned the name of his one-time hairdresser to other helping staff in his books as well, as per Mother Jones.
1. Donald Trump
The former President of the United States has long been associated with Jeffrey Epstein. They were frequently seen together at parties and events when Trump was an ambitious real estate mogul. In one of the New York Times interviews Trump celebrated their friendship stating “Epstein is a terrific man,” but after the initial lawsuits he significantly distanced himself from Epstein even stating “I was not a fan of him.”

Apart from these many other Jeffrey Epstein associates have made headlines including Carter Graydon, the former head of Vanity Fair, who was accused of killing important details from the 2003 story of Epstein’s pedophile lawsuit.
Additionally, many more names will surface online once the court documents are opened. Yet one can not help but believe that these hundreds of names from thousands in the black book are just the tip of the iceberg of Jeffrey Epstein’s empire.
I think you mean they will be released on January 1, 2024, not 2023.
I guess it’s a legal Escort Business. If it’s legal then it must be ok. For those who claimed under age, they know what the business entails and must have lied about their age so they can continue their profession. Once you’re in that environment and someone ask you to have consensual sex, you don’t have to do it if you really don’t like it. Nobody can force you, until it turns into a rape.
And of course not because you visited the island don’t mean you had gone there for sex. There maybe a party there for the rich and famous. You’re invited to perform or simply visiting the place like you do to other resort areas around the world if you have money.
So there, those names in the manifesto are guests for different reasons not necessarily engaging into sexual conducts.
The MEDIA is making it too Sensational. As usual.
Danny is right on every point .
Not everyone visiting the island was engaging in sex.
The young “ladies” knew exactly what they’re were doing, and why; $
Why did you omit Joe Biden?
Nice try.. But he was not there.
When I see the full list of people that were involved with him in any way, I don’t care what it was for I’m really disappointed in some of those names. I would have thought better of their choice of friends, but it just goes to show that even in Hollyweird it takes all kinds, and not everybody has great judgment but some of the more surprising ones are those who have been in the public eye, for notoriously bad judgment or for being advocates for those who have been sexually abused in any way. I find that the more appalling part of this horrible man and what he was about and what he did, to thousands of families by trafficking young women and even young boys. I really am disappointed in some of the names because of how they say they advocate for and then they are around somebody who is doing exactly what they Advocate against, that is really disturbing to me and I have no respect for them. What they do is just make themselves feel better and like they’re important when they open their mouths, if they were truly about ending sex trafficking, molestation and sex offenders they would do more than just talk about what sounds good in front of a camera, or just throwing money at the issue. They would do more. I find it just appalling what some people think is okay. I have definitely lost respect for quite a few people in the last four or five years, people who used to Garner respect and don’t even deserve that respect.
This is the reason why I rather vote The No Labels on the first place. The Three Stooges who are running are nothing but Pro-Rape Perverts, scumbags, and morons! Screw them all! Vote No Labels because Moderates hates legalized rape!
