Washington, December 20, 2025 - Total News Agency - TNA - The mass dissemination of judicial documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein has once again shaken politics, entertainment, and international royalty, by revealing photographs and records showing high-profile figures in social settings linked to the financier accused of sex trafficking. However, authorities clarified that appearing in the material does not, by itself, imply wrongdoing or crimes. The U.S. Department of Justice on Friday released thousands of pages of unclassified documents, images, and records related to the cases of Epstein and his convicted partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, in compliance with the Epstein Records Transparency Act. Those in Clinton's circle emphasized that the release of old photographs does not constitute illegal conduct and rejected any attempts to use the material as a "scapegoat." A statement attributed to the former president's collaborators maintained that there are two clear categories regarding Epstein: those who cut ties with him before his crimes became known and those who remained connected afterward. Among the names mentioned are music stars like Mick Jagger, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross, as well as actors such as Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker. On the political front, several photographs show former President Bill Clinton with Epstein and other personalities. However, the publication brought back into focus Epstein's network of relationships with influential figures in power, culture, and royalty, and reignited the public debate over the true extent of his connections and the role of his circle. The release of the files marks a new chapter in a case that, despite the passage of time and Epstein's death, continues to generate political and social impact, with ramifications that transcend the judicial sphere and again expose the closeness between power, celebrity, and opacity for decades. His figure sparked controversy again due to past statements in which he had referred to Epstein as a "generous friend," which at the time led to the severing of ties with several charitable organizations. Another recurring name is that of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who appears in new photographs with Maxwell and in other group scenes. The law was enacted on November 19 by President Donald Trump and required Attorney General Pam Bondi to make all available public materials within a 30-day period. The publication occurred as the legal deadline expired and exposed an unprecedented volume of information, including historical photographs of social gatherings, events, and private meetings. Other photographs place him alongside Mick Jagger, both indoors and at social events. Giuffre accused him of sexual exploitation in 2021; the conflict was resolved in 2022 through an out-of-court settlement, although Andrew denied the facts.
