Democratic lawmakers have released nearly 100 previously unseen photographs from the estate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, offering a fresh glimpse into his web of social and political connections.
The images, part of a trove of more than 95,000 obtained by subpoena, feature several high-profile figures including former President Donald Trump, Britain’s Prince Andrew, former President Bill Clinton, former Trump adviser Steve Bannon, and tech billionaire Bill Gates. The release does not imply wrongdoing by those pictured, many of whom have previously denied any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.
Three photos show Trump in social settings with Epstein. In one, the two stand alongside model Ingrid Seynhaeve at a 1997 Victoria’s Secret party—an image already in the public domain. Other photos depict Trump with women whose faces have been redacted. Also included was a staged photo of illustrated “Trump Condom” packets, which the White House dismissed as part of a “Democrat hoax” intended to distract from the administration’s accomplishments.
Another image shows Bill Clinton standing with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell—the latter convicted in 2021 for facilitating Epstein’s abuse—alongside two unidentified individuals. The photograph appears to bear Clinton’s signature. A Clinton spokesperson has previously stated he “knows nothing about the terrible crimes” to which Epstein pleaded guilty.
The batch also contains private shots of Epstein, including one in a bathtub and another suggesting the presence of sexual toys, offering a jarring contrast to the polished social imagery.
The release comes as the Justice Department nears a deadline to publish all documents related to Epstein, ensuring the case—and the questions surrounding his powerful associates—remains in the public eye.
