The Epstein Files refer to a collection of documents that were unsealed in 2024 as part of a defamation lawsuit brought against Ghislaine Maxwell by Jeffery Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre.[1]

The documents contain information about Epstein’s relationship with Maxwell, as well as allegations of sexual abuse by Epstein and his associates.[2] The files include the names of many high-profile individuals, including Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton.

Not everyone named in the documents is thought to be implicated in criminal behaviour. Cate Blanchett, Leonardo DiCaprio and Cameron Diaz were briefly mentioned as celebrities that Jeffery Epstein liked to mention but they have not been linked to any criminal actions.[3]

The documents have been the subject of much speculation and controversy, with many people calling for further investigation into Epstein’s activities and the people who were associated with him.[4]

The Epstein Files have been widely covered in the media, with many news outlets publishing articles and reports about the documents and their contents.[1][2][5] The files have also been the subject of much discussion on social media, with many people expressing shock and outrage at the allegations contained within them.[4]

The files have also raised important questions about the role of powerful individuals in enabling and covering up sexual abuse and other crimes.[4]
