- A federal judge ordered the release of court documents with nearly 200 names of people linked to Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019.
- Epstein’s network of friends and business partners: The documents may reveal new details about Epstein’s activities and connections with prominent figures such as former presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Britain’s Prince Andrew, and others.
- Epstein’s accusers and co-conspirators: The documents may also shed light on the allegations and lawsuits brought by dozens of women who accused Epstein and his partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, of sexually abusing them when they were underage.
- The timing and scope of the document release: The judge gave the individuals named in the documents 14 days to appeal the ruling, which closed on Tuesday night1. Some names, including those of accusers who were under 18, will remain anonymous2.
