Multi-millionaire Jeffrey Epstein has known for years that he was being investigated for sex trafficking of underage girls. But he apparently was so confident that his wealth would insulate him from consequences that he continued to keep a large collection of nude photos of underage girls in his $77 million New York mansion.

Prosecutors alleged Epstein “has continued to maintain a vast trove of lewd photographs of young-looking women or girls in his Manhattan mansion.” 

Investigators said they recovered “at least hundreds—and perhaps thousands—of sexually suggestive photographs of fully- or partially nude females” 

They continued: “Some of the nude or partially-nude photographs appear to be of underage girls, including at least one girl who, according to her counsel, was underage at the time the relevant photographs were taken.”

“Some of the photographs referenced herein were discovered in a locked safe, in which law enforcement officers also found compact discs with hand-written labels including the following: “Young [Name] + [Name],” “Misc nudes 1,” and “Girl pics nude.”

And today, he pleaded not guilty.

The president* of the US has ties to Jeffrey Epstein going way back, and it’s entirely possible he’ll end up implicated in this, too.
