Epstein’s ‘pedophile island’ visitors revealed in leaked cellphone data — RT World News
The mapped coordinates show the routes people took to reach the site from July 2016 until the financier's arrest in July 2019, according to Wired.
Nearly 200 people made multiple trips to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein's Caribbean island between 2016 and before his eventual arrest in 2019, according to data obtained by Wired.
A convicted sex offender trafficked and abused minors and women on Little St James, where he also invited powerful and wealthy individuals, earning it the nickname “Paedophile Island”.
A newly uncovered document by Wired cites mobile phone data provided by Near Intelligence that pinpoints the locations of up to 166 visitors or potential victims, from across the US and the world.
Many of the coordinates mapped by Near Intelligence lead to multi-million dollar homes in the United States. Others return to low-income areas where Epstein's victims are known to have lived and attended schools, including parts of West Palm Beach, Florida.
Police and a private investigator wrote that they had found about 40 of Epstein's victims in the area, adding that it remained unclear how this data was collected or what it was used for.
In January, newly published legal documents listed the names of about 100 people allegedly linked to Epstein, including former US President Bill Clinton and Britain's Prince Andrew. The latter reached an out-of-court settlement with a woman who accused him of sexual assault in 2022.
Epstein was eventually arrested in 2019 and charged with trafficking dozens of minors. He died awaiting trial in a Manhattan jail cell a month later, his death officially ruled a suicide. Epstein's friend and reputed “madam,” Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted and sentenced to 20 years in prison for child sex trafficking in 2022. She is currently appealing the ruling.
