Notable names in newly released Epstein file dump
The Hindu
Newly released Epstein files mention high-profile figures, including Trump, Gates, and Branson, amid unverified allegations and connections.
A fresh cache of files related to the investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein contains documents that reference U.S. President Donald Trump and other high-profile figures, including Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and British billionaire Richard Branson.
Here are key details about mentions of the celebrities, none of whom have been accused of wrongdoing:
The files included an FBI-compiled list of sexual assault allegations related to U.S. President Donald Trump — many of them involving anonymous callers and unverified tips.
The allegations — some second-hand — were sent to the FBI's National Threat Operations Center, which receives information by phone and electronically.
The document suggests that investigators followed up on a number of the tips. Some were deemed to lack credibility.
