House Democrats Unveil New Images of Epstein’s Private Island Home
Jeffrey Epstein’s private island, Little St James, has come under renewed scrutiny following the release of new images. This small island is located southwest of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands and spans approximately 90 acres. Epstein owned this property for more than 25 years and used it to reportedly conceal illegal activities.
An Overview of Little St James Island
Little St James is notorious for its association with the late financier. Epstein also owned the neighboring Greater St. James Island, amplifying his real estate portfolio in the Caribbean.
Legal Actions and Allegations
- Denise George, the Attorney General for the U.S. Virgin Islands, claimed that Epstein used the island as a base for criminal operations.
- Following Epstein’s death, George initiated a lawsuit against his estate, alleging misconduct witnessed by airport personnel.
- An anonymous victim reported severe abuse, stating she was raped and held captive at Epstein’s residence on the island.
- She recounted living in constant fear of violence, describing a gun kept by the bed, restricting her freedom.
Isolation and Control
According to several testimonies, the isolation of Little St James made escape nearly impossible. The only means of leaving the island were by helicopter or boat.
Sale of Little St James
In 2022, Little St James was placed on the market. Epstein’s estate indicated that some of the proceeds from the sale would go towards settling unpaid lawsuits related to his extensive legal issues.
As investigations and legal actions continue, new evidence may emerge, shedding light on the extent of Epstein’s alleged crimes and the role of Little St James in them.
