New Epstein Files Release Shows High-Profile Social Circle in Startling Images
The U.S. Department of Justice has released a new tranche of evidence from the ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, the paedophile financier whose crimes shook the world. The latest batch includes hundreds of photographs and documents that offer a closer look at Epstein’s elite social circle.
Among the images, Epstein appears socializing with some of the most prominent figures in politics, royalty, and high society.

One photograph shows former U.S. President Bill Clinton in a swimming pool with Epstein, accompanied by socialite Ghislaine Maxwell and another woman. Another image features the then-Prince Andrew laughing while lying across the laps of five women, with Maxwell observing nearby.
A particularly disturbing image shows Epstein topless, wearing only jogging trousers, positioned near the visible ankles of a small child seated close by.
Many of these images are believed to have been taken by Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s long-term companion, who was later convicted for her involvement in recruiting and trafficking minors.
Other released photographs include formal gatherings, casual social events, and intimate settings. In one, Prince Andrew is dressed in an evening suit, laughing as he lies across the laps of five women, while Maxwell looks on. The collection gives insight into the personal networks Epstein maintained and the environments in which he moved.
Other images in the release show Epstein at social gatherings with actors, musicians, and influential figures across Hollywood and politics.

Epstein was facing federal child sex trafficking charges but died in his Manhattan prison cell in 2019 before his trial could take place. His death was officially ruled a suicide. Maxwell’s subsequent conviction confirmed her role in the operation, but Epstein himself never faced a trial to determine the full extent of his actions.
The newly released tranche adds to the hundreds of documents and photographs already public from the so-called “Epstein Files.” Many of the images are heavily redacted or blurred, but they continue to capture Epstein in social interactions with notable figures and in contexts that have drawn widespread attention.
The release also includes various documents detailing travel, meetings, and social connections, providing a clearer picture of Epstein’s extensive network. While the focus remains on Epstein and Maxwell, the photographs have prompted renewed attention on the figures photographed alongside them.
This latest release continues the gradual unveiling of Epstein’s personal and social networks, adding visual context to previously disclosed reports, legal documents, and witness testimonies. As public interest remains high, the new evidence provides a detailed look at the environment surrounding Epstein and the prominent individuals with whom he associated.
