Images and videos taken in 2020, a year after he died in jail, show the late sex offender’s home

House Democrats released photos and videos from Jeffrey Epstein’s private Caribbean island on Wednesday, offering a rare glimpse into a secretive place where Epstein is alleged to have trafficked young girls.

The new images and videos show Epstein’s home, including bedrooms, a telephone, what appears to be an office or library, and a chalkboard on which the words “fin”, “intellectual”, “deception” and “power” are written. Several photos show a room with a dentist chair and masks hanging on the wall. The New York Times reported that Epstein’s last girlfriend was a dentist who shared an office with one of his shell companies. The videos appear to be a walk-through of the property.

    Maybe the blocked doors are just window shutters ? who knows.

    Those masks sure are creepy.

    Edit:

    Actually from the dropbox folder that @[email protected] shared there’s this photo:

    https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/e7n5g4wz0cjngv9u9qys2/AHNOf8vcSNtejTpIcQGaICs?dl=0&e=2&preview=IMG_5373S.pdf&rlkey=c8fds6c4a8t6zwoiglx4c7kt3&st=16dpmuw0

    The pitch of the roof and the position of the doors makes it look like the outside of the room with the night stands in-front of the doors. It looks like they could be used as a kind of pavillion during outdoor events, like a place to serve snacks and drinks.

    I’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions about the steel bars blocking those doors from the outside. You can see them horizontally across the two doors on the left, and there’s one propped against the wall next to the door on the right.

    Honestly, I think if they had rooms in which to detain people against their will it wouldn’t be like this, but IDK.

      1. These photos were taken a year after Epstein had been arrested, so the island was not in use at the time.

      2. The islands (he had two) are both located in the US Virgin Islands, which are highly susceptible to hurricanes.

      3. That crossbar looks very much like the crossbar in this video about installing hurricane shutters.

      I honestly think you have come to the wrong conclusion.
