Overview

• Bloomberg obtained and authenticated roughly 18,000 emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s personal Yahoo account spanning 2002–2022, with the heaviest volume from 2005–2008.
• The correspondence contradicts Ghislaine Maxwell’s distancing claims, showing hundreds of exchanges through 2008 and her input on plea-language options during Epstein’s 2008 case.
• Emails depict efforts to discredit Virginia Giuffre, including forwarding a Palm Beach sheriff’s report that questioned her credibility and preceded a New York Daily News story.
• A spreadsheet itemizes nearly 2,000 gifts and payments to associates, advisers and some teenage girls who later accused Epstein and Maxwell, with entries linking Maxwell to arranging distributions.
• Multiple references to high-profile figures, including a 2006 note to “Remove Trump” from a list, appear in the emails, with coverage emphasizing there is no evidence of criminal conduct by those named.
