22 Sordid Facts About Jeffrey Epstein That Aren’t Making Headlines
There are too many disturbing and sordid things about Jeffrey Epstein to name them all.
Like the fact Steve Bannon was secretly working with him on a documentary to restore his image right up until his 2019 arrest. Or his deep ties to the Rothschild banking empire, where he advised CEO Ariane de Rothschild and brokered deals through shell companies while he was a registered sex offender. Or that one victim said he need at least 6 girls per day moving through his house.
The list is infinite, but here are 22 of the most disturbing facts that never made headlines.
1. Jeffrey Epstein had a girlfriend over the age of 18 that was not Ghislaine Maxwell. Her name was Karyna Shuliak, a Belarusian woman nicknamed “The Inspector” for her role overseeing his properties and staff. Two days before his death, Epstein signed a will naming her primary beneficiary of his will and said he contemplated marrying her. Prior to this, Epstein arranged a sham 2013 marriage for her to an American woman linked to Kimbal Musk.
2. Epstein had an obsessive fixation on beef jerky that appears throughout thousands of pages of documents. The word “jerky” or “beef jerky” appears 380 times across the 2026 DOJ Epstein files.
3. Epstein’s mansion contained a mural of himself in prison painted years before his arrest. The photorealistic painting showed him standing in a prison yard. This was commissioned and displayed long before any charges were filed.
4. Epstein’s last phone call from jail was to his girlfriend Karyna Shuliak. The call lasted 15-30 minutes and was unlogged. Epstein lied to guards, telling them he was calling his long-dead mother. This was the day before he died.
5. Epstein kept his bedroom at a wildly cold 54 degrees at all times. That’s barely above refrigerator temperature. Staff had to constantly work in the freezing room replenishing towels and preparing mats for his yoga practices.
6. A life-size female mannequin in a wedding dress hung by a noose from a chandelier in Epstein’s mansion. This was prominently displayed for visitors to see. He also displayed a first-edition copy of the novel “Lolita” prominently at the house, too.
7. Epstein displayed a large painting of Bill Clinton wearing a blue dress and red high heels in his mansion. The painting hung prominently for guests to view.
8. Hidden cameras were installed throughout Epstein’s properties. Bedrooms, massage rooms, and even cameras hidden inside Kleenex boxes captured live footage across his homes and island.
9. Air traffic controllers and airport employees saw Epstein with girls as young as 11 and 12 years old as recently as 2018. Multiple St. Thomas airport personnel reported seeing him accompanied by children who appeared to be 11-16 years old. The girls wore college sweatshirts as camouflage while carrying designer bags.
10. One 15-year-old victim was so desperate to escape Little St. James island she tried to swim to freedom. Locals called the island “Dicks Island” and “Obeah” meaning “a bad omen” or place of evil. One victim said “I spent two weeks vomiting almost to death in a hospital after that first encounter” on the island.
11. Donald Trump banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago in 2007 after a member’s teenage daughter complained. The young girl said Epstein had invited her to his house and tried to get her to undress. No police complaint was filed, but Trump barred him. Virginia Roberts had been recruited from the same club seven years earlier, in 2000, where she worked as a spa attendant.
12. Virginia Giuffre testified under oath that Epstein told her “Bill Clinton likes them young”. This was direct sworn testimony. Flight logs show Clinton flew on Epstein’s Boeing 727 at least 26 times including overseas trips.
13. Prince Andrew settled Virginia Giuffre’s lawsuit for millions without admitting guilt. Giuffre alleged she was trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell to have sex with Andrew when she was 17. She claims Maxwell and Epstein took her to the exclusive London club Tramp where she was served alcohol before going to Maxwell’s townhouse. Andrew denied the allegations.
14. Les Wexner gave Epstein full power of attorney over his billions and transferred his Manhattan mansion to him. The Victoria’s Secret billionaire handed complete financial control to Epstein for reasons that remain unclear. This is how Epstein obtained the mansion that would become infamous.
15. Epstein was granted his own dedicated office at Harvard with unlimited access. The office was known internally as “Jeffrey’s Office” and he had his own keycard for 24/7 entry. This gave him legitimacy and access to top scientists despite never graduating from college.
16. Epstein once seriously considered buying a luxury apartment in Moscow near the Kremlin. In October 2009 he received detailed floor plans for an entire luxury floor plus terrace of a Moscow skyscraper from Capital Group. He forwarded them to Peter Mandelson.
17. Epstein told scientists he planned to impregnate up to 20 women at a time at his Zorro Ranch. His stated goal was to seed the human race with his own DNA through a eugenics program. He also had his own sperm cryogenically frozen and discussed full-body, head, or penis cryonics preservation.
18. Epstein’s medical records show a pattern of sexually transmitted diseases and other strange things. Documents reveal chlamydia in 2015, gonorrhea in 2016 and 2018, extremely low testosterone, chronic Lyme disease, and intestinal parasites including whipworm.
19. Police found a fake Austrian passport with Epstein’s photo in his safe. The passport listed a false name and Saudi Arabia as his residence. It was stored with diamonds and cash.
20. Epstein tried to buy a multimillion-dollar palace in Morocco the day before his arrest. He signed a $14.95 million wire transfer on July 5, 2019 for Bin Ennakhil, an architectural masterpiece in Marrakech built by 1,300 craftsmen. He was arrested the next day. Morocco has no extradition treaty with the US. His accountant cancelled the wire transfer three days after the arrest.
21. Epstein’s 2019 jail death had multiple suspicious circumstances. He was removed from suicide watch, guards fell asleep and falsified logs, two cameras malfunctioned, and he had a broken hyoid bone. He had updated his will and created the 1953 Trust just two days before his death.
22. Epstein’s estate has paid over $121 million to more than 136 victims so far. Legal estimates put the total number of victims at over 1,000 people, but there could be a lot more than even that.
