Judge Rules Names of More Than 150 People Connected to Jeffrey Epstein to be Made Public

A federal judge has ruled that the names of more than 150 people connected to Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier and accused sex offender, will be made public. The documents, which are part of a settled lawsuit, were released Wednesday evening, Jan. 3.

The documents are expected to include known associates of Epstein, alleged sexual abuse victims, and those who appeared on the flight logs of Epstein’s private jet, nicknamed the “Lolita Express.” Some of the names may already be public in the sprawling case.

The documents were unsealed following a December ruling by the federal court in New York. A spokesman for the court said the release of the documents was expected to take place on a rolling basis.

The documents are expected to shed light on Epstein’s activities and associates. Epstein was arrested in July 2019 and charged with sex trafficking of minors. He died in August 2019 while in jail.

The documents are expected to provide further information about Epstein’s activities and associates. It is unclear what the documents will reveal, but they are likely to provide further insight into the case.
