DOJ Emails Show Josh Harris Corresponded With Jeffrey Epstein on Business Matters

Harris says the interactions were business‑only during a broader review of millions of newly released records.

Overview

  • Emails from roughly 2013 to 2016 document calls, scheduling and at least one visit by Harris to Epstein’s Manhattan home.
  • The records include a December 2014 breakfast at Epstein’s residence that Harris attended, with messages referencing Bill Gates, Reid Hoffman and Ron Baron among invitees.
  • The newly released files contain no indication that Harris engaged in sexual misconduct.
  • A June 2014 message notes a proposed $2.4 million payment apparently tied to Melanie Spinella, though the purpose and whether it occurred remain unclear.
  • Harris, through a spokesperson, characterizes the contact as strictly business and says he sought to block Epstein’s efforts to cultivate ties with Apollo, as reporters continue reviewing a roughly three‑million‑document release.
