The newly released document from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, named as well as prominent figures, including Elon Musk and Prince Andrew, sheds even more light on the contact information and network of fellow peers of convicted sex offenders. The Democrats published on the U.S. House Oversight Committee form part of the ongoing release of Epstein-related records and includes schedules, flight manifesto and financial ledgers.
According to the documents, a 2014 entry in Epstein’s schedule refers to “Reminder: Elon Musk to Elon Musk from December 6th (is this still happening?). Schedule entries have not confirmed whether the visit was made, and Musk consistently denies any social or business links with Epstein. Axios, which reviewed the records, reported that Musk’s representatives had previously said he had “not had any connection” with the dishonorable financial figures. The already known Prince Andrew is listed in this material. Most notably, the flight manifesto, especially since May 2000. The logs record the Duke of York driving Epstein’s private jets with Epstein and Guschlaine Maxwell from Teterboro, New Jersey to West Palm Beach, Florida. The oversight committee noted additional ledger entries referring to “Andrew,” which appears to be related to massage payments. The committee suggested that these could indicate that Epstein made payments on behalf of the prince, but the records remained grossly edited, and the full context of which is unknown.
The House Oversight Committee said the document “provides possible evidence of payment from Epstein to Massages on behalf of an individual identified as “Andrew.” However, similar to Musk’s references, there are no direct allegations of criminal conduct contained in the file.
This release marks the third batch of Epstein Estate Materials published by the committee. Previous releases have already rekindled scrutiny of Epstein’s broad connections in politics, finance and technology. Politico and Business Insider, alongside Musk and Andrew, the new tranche also included references to other well-known names, including former White House advisor Steve Bannon and venture capitalist Peter Thiel. A Democrat on the Oversight Committee said the goal when publishing records is to provide transparency given the public interest in the scope of Epstein’s network. “The American people deserve to see the full extent of Epstein’s connections and the way he may have tried to buy influence,” their statement read.
Convicted in 2008 of seeking prostitution for minors, Epstein died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on a new federal charge of sex trafficking. His death ruled suicide, and promoted persistent conspiracy theories, particularly regarding the powerful individuals he was associated with.
While current disclosures will deepen public awareness of these links, legal experts should be aware of drawing conclusions. As reported by ABC News, the document is fragmented, with significant edits, and does not demonstrate fraudulent behavior by the person named. The reference highlights the association, both of Musk and Prince Andrew, but does not extend to demonstrating allegations of fraud. The Oversight Committee has indicated that more material will be released soon, suggesting that the IV feed of the Epstein Files will continue to generate headlines for the coming months.
