Newly released Jeffrey Epstein documents show emails that connect Elon Musk, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Richard Branson to the disgraced financier. This has led to a lot of attention on connections between the rich and famous.
The U.S. Department of Justice released more than three million pages of Epstein files after his 2008 conviction. These files included emails, flight logs, and calendars that mentioned famous people. Elon Musk is in emails from 2012 to 2013 about possible visits to the island, which goes against his claims that he turned down invitations to Little St. James. Howard Lutnick planned a family trip to the island in 2012 through friendly emails, which goes against his claim that he cut ties in 2005.
Richard Branson is seen in interactions with people like Sergey Brin and Steve Tisch, but the details are still being looked at because the tips are not verified. There are no direct accusations of wrongdoing against these people, but the files show that Epstein had a long-lasting network of powerful people.
