Yesterday, the Palm Beach State Attorney’s Office released footage from their 2005 look inside Jeffrey Epstein’s Palm Beach estate in south Florida.
The footage was filmed as part of the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office probe into Epstein, and the then allegations that he sexually abused more than a dozen minors.
As we have come to learn, that number is likely far higher, with story after story painting the picture of a sexually depraved human.
Before we see the footage, here’s the New York Post:
The video shows investigators combing through a series of guest rooms, many decorated with pastel pink or baby blue walls, that have toys inside, including a pink pig stashed in a closet and a teddy bear on the nightstand in one of the rooms.
In a hallway outside the master bedroom, Epstein embellished the area with a sculpture of a woman’s backside, a painting of a young nude girl splayed across a white massage table and another image that was so explicit, investigators blurred it out, the video shows. It’s believed to be the image of a young girl, around age 6, bending over in a short dress with her backside exposed…
The pervy financier’s penchant for young women’s derrieres is evident across the compound with a slew of photos showing exposed backsides, including at least one inside the master bedroom.
‘Pervy’ is a rather euphemistic way of describing a convicted paedophile.
Here are some clips from the 2005 video:
In the bathroom, police found a full dental chair, alongside what appears to be a vibrator.
It gets worse:
Just outside the estate’s pool is a cluttered gym and a small office area that shows a photo of a baby girl and an image of Epstein with three young women in what appears to be a chain massage. The photo shows Epstein sitting in a chair with three women behind him, all touching each other’s shoulders or heads.
If you’re really determined to snoop around, you can find the police’s full 53-minute video here.
Sadly, despite having what many considered a pretty strong case, and interviews with more than a dozen victims, Palm Beach prosecutors completely bungled the case. Epstein pleaded guilty to a single count of solicitation of a minor, and was let off with a 13-month prison stint and a requirement to register as a sex offender.
Clearly, that didn’t slow him down.
