Jeffrey Epstein Associates To Be Named After Judge Orders Over 170 Names To Be Released
A New York judge has ordered that the list of associates named in a lawsuit linked to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein be released. The list of over 170 names may contain some very powerful people, including Prince Andrew and former Presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.
The documents were previously sealed but the judge has ordered them to be released within weeks, according to News.com.au. The list has been called the "naughty list." It was sealed because it might not just contain suspected accomplices of Epstein in his sex trafficking ring but also some innocent associates who could face ramifications just by being associated with the late disgraced financier.
Despite this possibility, Manhattan Judge Loretta Preska ordered that the full list of names be released, and it may happen within two weeks. Some of the names are already known by the public but many believe even more powerful people tied to Epstein might soon be exposed by this.
The "Naughty List" possibly including Prince Andrew has many in Buckingham Palace worried, as the Royals have called the claims against the prince "categorically untrue." However, the prince has been accused by alleged victim Johanna Sjoberg of groping her when she was 21 at Epstein's apartment.
Virginia Giuffre, one of the alleged victims of Epstein's sex trafficking ring, took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate the judge's decision.
"There's going to be a lot of nervous people over Christmas and New Year's -170 to be exact," she wrote.
List of Names on Jeffrey Epstein's 'Naughty List' May Also Include Names of Possible Victims
The list was brought about when Virginia Giuffre sued infamous Jeffrey Epstein associate, Ghislane Maxwell, in 2015, a lawsuit that the alleged Epstein victim won. The list includes Epstein's possible co-conspirators but it could also include the names of several "Jane Does" who were actually victims of Epstein.
However, as CBS News pointed out, the final list of who will be revealed has not yet been decided as the list of these "Jane Does" and "John Does" includes some minors and some whose names appeared twice. Judge Preska ruled that while she ordered all of the names to be unsealed, she also ruled that any names of possible victims included on the list, especially the minors, would remain sealed.
The listed "Jane Does" and "John Does" can still argue against their names being released, but they only have 14 days to do so as the judge ordered the full list to be released on January 1, 2024.
Who May Be Included in Jeffrey Epstein's List of Associates
While the list includes possible victims, it also includes some very powerful people. Chief among them is Prince Andrew, who has been an infamous Epstein associate for years.
In the US, his two most powerful associates are a Republican and a Democrat, with former President Bill Clinton having flown in his infamous private jet. However, former President Donald Trump, who also flew in that said jet, also had Epstein as a regular guest at Mar-a-Lago, being friends with the accused sex offender for decades.
Another person who might be revealed as part of the list is former US Senator George Mitchell, a Democrat, who was the Senate Majority Leader from 1989 to 1995. Giuffre said she was once sent to have sex with him, according to WION.
