In a recent development, court documents related to former President Bill Clinton were unsealed on Wednesday, unveiling information as part of a larger release connected to associates of the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Clinton is identified as “John Doe 36” and is expected to be referenced more than 50 times in the set of documents. These materials were unsealed in the ongoing legal dispute between Virginia Giuffre, a prominent Epstein accuser, and Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s imprisoned partner. The released witness testimony from Johanna Sjoberg alleges Epstein mentioning Clinton’s purported interest in young girls.
The victim testified, “He said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls,” while also detailing various trips and sexual acts involving Epstein. The documents began to emerge Wednesday night following confusion related to an appeal by a Jane Doe seeking anonymity.
Prior to the release, ABC News reported that Clinton would be identified in the court documents without facing criminal implications. Clinton’s name has previously appeared on Epstein’s flight logs, indicating at least nine joint trips to locations like Paris, Bangkok, and Brunei. Photos of Clinton with Epstein at the White House emerged in 2021, and images of him with an alleged Epstein victim were reported by the Daily Mail in August 2020.
Former President Donald Trump is also listed on the flight logs, but neither Trump nor Clinton took a flight to Epstein’s Little St. James island, the focal point of Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking activities.
Mark Epstein, Jeffrey’s younger brother, claimed that Jeffrey had information about both Trump and Bill Clinton that could have disrupted the 2016 presidential election. However, he did not disclose the specifics of this information.
Clinton allegedly took up to 26 flights on Epstein’s “Lolita Express” jet, and there were reports of him abandoning his Secret Service detail on at least five occasions. Giuffre, attempting to have Clinton testify, alleged meeting him on Little St. James and Epstein joking about having Clinton under control. Clinton, through a spokesperson, denied these allegations, stating he had never been to Little St. James Island and had severed contact with Epstein over a decade prior to the emergence of his criminal activities.
Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his New York jail cell in August 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, with his death ruled as suicide. Cameras did not capture the incident at the jail facility.
