Investigative notes describing Jeffrey Epstein<\/a>\u2019s detailed demands of the people he sent to procure children for his sexual predation are among the documents released<\/a> by the Department of Justice on Friday.<\/p>\n

They cast a grim spotlight on the actions of Epstein and those around him amid their efforts to procure young women and underage girls for the late disgraced financier. They were part of a long-awaited release of documents<\/a> from Donald Trump\u2019s justice department, which has been slammed for being only a partial release and heavily redacted.<\/p>\n

But one document, called EFTA00004179, consists of a formal FBI evidence cover sheet and 13 pages of handwritten investigative notes from an interview conducted on 2 May 2019. The interview subject is redacted, as is some of the content.<\/p>\n

Still, themes emerge; recruitment of girls, sexual encounters under the guise of \u201cmassages\u201d and Epstein\u2019s specific preferences regarding age and race.<\/p>\n

\u201cFriends of [redacted] friends. Big Brazilian group. Desperate time,\u201d the witness said, according to the notes. \u201cRunning out of girls.\u201d The notes ostensibly refer to Epstein by the initials \u201cJE\u201d.<\/p>\n

A \u201cdark-skinned Dominican\u201d was brought in during this \u201cdesperate time\u201d but \u201cJE didn\u2019t want Spanish or dark girl\u201d, the notes read. The initials of the person who brought the underage girls to Epstein are redacted in the document. This person told Epstein that they had been \u201cbringing young girls\u201d to Epstein, but Epstein complained that \u201cyea but not dark\u201d.<\/p>\n

The witness said she was unsure whether Epstein had paid the procurer for the \u201cservice\u201d, but that he had paid the girl.<\/p>\n

The notes then refer to a bathroom and \u201cboobs and vaginas near bathtub \u2026 he got in shower and told her can\u2019t just bring girls he doesn\u2019t like. \u2026 told her keep looking for girls\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt one point [redacted] witnessed him asking for ID to girl,\u2019\u201d the notes state, \u201cwanted make sure under 18 b\/c he wasn\u2019t believing them b\/c [redacted] messed up by bringing more older girls.\u201d<\/p>\n

The notes contain the witness\u2019s descriptions of sexual encounters, like Epstein making \u201ccrazy noises\u201d and touching victims \u201croughly\u201d.<\/p>\n

The document contains photographs of girls described in the notes as from 14 to 17 years old, around town and in bikinis on the beach. The notes reference New York locations: the \u201c41st St Apartment\u201d in Manhattan, locations in Rochester and Brighton Beach, New York, and a high school prom.<\/p>\n

The identity of the witness is not clear. The notes jibe with Epstein\u2019s known interest in Brazilian children.<\/p>\n

Marina Lacerda, a Brazilian immigrant identified as \u201cMinor-Victim 1\u201d in the federal indictment, was a central witness who spoke publicly for the first time in September. She detailed her abuse by Epstein from the age of 14 and said she saw Donald Trump with Epstein more than once, though Trump has denied knowing of any of Epstein\u2019s criminal actions.<\/p>\n

Her testimony ultimately resulted in Epstein\u2019s indictment. Epstein later killed himself in a New York jail cell in 2019.<\/p>\n

Jean-Luc Brunel, who founded a modeling agency with Epstein\u2019s support, was arrested<\/a> in 2022 by French authorities on suspicion of trafficking and raping underage girls. Brunel was accused of supplying more than 1,000 girls and young women for Epstein to have sex with.<\/p>\n

In April 2019, Brunel visited<\/a> an agency in Brazil that his company had worked with in the past to find new models to bring over to the US, according to a source who saw him in Brasilia. Convicted Epstein confidante Ghislaine Maxwell<\/a> was also reportedly traced to the Brazilian riviera shortly after Epstein\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

Brunel killed himself in a Parisian prison on 19 February 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Investigative notes describing Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s detailed demands of the people he sent to procure children for his sexual…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":325895,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-325894","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/325894","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=325894"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/325894\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/325895"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=325894"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=325894"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=325894"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
