Here’s What’s in the DOJ’s Epstein File Release—and What’s Missing

Many of the photos are from earlier releases, and include things like a stuffed tiger, a framed Times of London cover photo of Princess Diana placed in the back of a closet, photos of multiple nude women’s paintings in Epstein’s townhouse, and framed photos of Epstein’s associates such as Trump and Woody Allen.
Volume 2
Volume two contains 574 images and one four-second video. Many of the photos feature Epstein and Maxwell in various locations. Several celebrities and politicians also appear in the photos, including actors Chris Tucker and Kevin Spacey, singer Michael Jackson, and Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards—none of whom appear in suspicious or compromising positions.
However, Bill Clinton appears several times in the second group of photos. In one photo, he is shirtless in a pool with a woman whose name has been changed; a photo that appears to have been taken from the same location shows Clinton and Maxwell at a pool. Clinton also appears in many photographs with re-engraved women.
Clinton went on four trips with Epstein in 2002 and 2003, including a humanitarian trip to Africa and London. During part of that trip, he accompanied Tucker and Spacey, according to The New York Times.
(Clinton spokesman Angel Ureña released a statement that read, in part, “They can release as many grainy photos that are 20 years old and older as they want, but this is not about Bill Clinton.”)
Many of the photos feature Jean-Luc Brunel, a modeling agent and close friend of Epstein’s. The photos show Brunel with Epstein and Maxwell in various locations, and aboard what appears to be Epstein’s famous private jet. In several photos, Maxwell can be seen stroking Brunel’s feet and placing one foot between her breasts.
Brunel was arrested by French authorities in 2020 as part of the Epstein sex trafficking and sexual abuse investigation, and charged with rape of a 15-year-old child and sexual abuse. Brunel has denied any wrongdoing. In 2022, Brunel was found dead, hanging from his prison cell.
Volume 3
The third volume contains several hundred photographs. One of these, which appears to have been framed, shows a man who appears to be Prince Andrew standing on his side in the laps of at least four women, their faces averted. A smiling Maxwell, and a woman with a painted face, stand in the background.
Most photos, however, may have been printed as they appeared on digital storage, as individual photo names, file extensions, and album names are all visible. Many of the photos with the tags include Clinton, and several were taken on a group vacation to Thailand that Clinton allegedly took with Epstein and Maxwell. Clinton also joined the couple on at least one leg of a multi-location vacation that stopped in China, Paris, and Stockholm, another in New York, Los Angeles, and London, another trip to Africa and London, and another trip to Morocco. In one photo, Clinton is shown with a woman, her face reconstructed, sitting on Clinton’s lap.
