House Releases ‘Never-Before-Seen’ Epstein Photos
The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday released a sweeping new batch of never-before-seen photographs and documents from Jeffrey Epstein’s private island — and the disturbing images paint an even darker picture of the environment where the convicted predator is alleged to have abused underage girls while hosting powerful visitors.
The materials, now mandated for release under a transparency law signed last month by President Donald J. Trump, include images captured during the FBI’s 2019 raid of Epstein’s Little St. James compound in the U.S. Virgin Islands. For years, the island has been at the center of allegations that Epstein operated a tightly controlled network of exploitation shielded by elite political and financial connections.
One of the most alarming discoveries is a fully equipped dental suite located inside one of the estate’s primary structures — a stark white room containing a dentist’s chair under a surgical light and surrounded by roughly a dozen yellow-tinted male face masks mounted on the walls. Investigators said the bizarre display immediately drew attention when agents entered the room.
Former FBI Supervisory Senior Resident Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, who oversaw operations in the Virgin Islands, said the masks “would pique any investigator’s interest,” especially given Epstein’s documented use of psychological manipulation and tactics to hide the identities of high-profile associates. She noted that masks are “a common tactic in sex offenses to prevent identification.”
Victims’ advocates said the new photos reinforce longstanding concerns that Epstein designed the island not only as a site of physical abuse but as a carefully staged environment to intimidate, confuse, and control victims.
Another image released by the committee shows a chalkboard inside one of Epstein’s offices covered with scattered words: “Power,” “Deception,” “Truth,” “Political,” and “Mirror in face.” Lawmakers who reviewed the board privately described it as “deeply disturbing,” suggesting it may reflect Epstein’s fixation on dominance and secrecy. Analysts reviewing the materials said the board, combined with the dental suite, indicates Epstein’s operation involved both psychological and physical exploitation.
The release also includes photos of bedrooms, a tiled shower room stacked with linens, and an office phone with speed-dial buttons labeled “DARREN,” “RICH,” “MIKE,” “PATRICK,” and “LARRY.” Four other names were redacted by House Democrats.
Crucially, the documents contain no evidence implicating President Trump in Epstein’s crimes. Multiple Epstein accusers have testified under oath that Trump was never involved and was never seen on the island.
More documents are expected from the Justice Department by December 19, the deadline set by the new Trump-era transparency law.
Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal reported that former President Bill Clinton sent Epstein a handwritten 50th birthday note in 2003. Clinton’s longstanding connection to Epstein has resurfaced repeatedly in documents and court testimony. His name appears on Epstein’s flight logs for multiple international trips between 2002 and 2003.
“In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the work of the Clinton Foundation,” Clinton spokesman Angel Urena said in 2019.
The Journal reported that Clinton’s birthday message was written in his “distinctive scrawl,” reading in part:
“It’s reassuring isn’t it, to have lasted as long, across all the years of learning and knowing, adventures and [illegible word], and also to have your childlike curiosity, the drive to make a difference and the solace of friends.”
Johanna Sjoberg, one of Epstein’s accusers, testified in a 2016 deposition that Epstein once told her, regarding Clinton, that “Clinton likes them young, referring to girls,” according to Newsweek.
A spokesperson for Clinton declined to comment on the newly surfaced letter, pointing instead to a previous statement claiming Clinton cut ties with Epstein more than a decade before the financier’s 2019 arrest — and insisting he had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.
