NEW: We got access to Jeffrey Epsteinâs personal Yahoo inbox â more than 18,000 emails.

It shows Epsteinâs world in his own words: an unfiltered look at how his operation worked, who enabled it, and how Ghislaine Maxwell stayed at the center of it all.
For years, Ghislaine Maxwell has tried to distance herself from Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender, an effort that continued through her own criminal conviction and in a recent interview with federal law enforcement officials.
According to her telling, she was a onetime girlfriend turned property manager at Epsteins luxury homes around the world, yet was not privy to the inner workings of his vast influence machine or sex-trafficking operation.
But hundreds of emails from Epsteins personal Yahoo account, which havent been previously reported, shed new light on Maxwells partnership with Epstein. They also contribute to longstanding questions about her credibility, including her truthfulness in a two-day interview she had with officials from the Department of Justice this summer. (Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence after a jury found in 2021 that she recruited and groomed women for Epstein to sexually abuse.)
The emails, part of a cache of more than 18,000 obtained by Bloomberg News, show that Maxwell and Epstein were closer, in many respects, than either publicly admitted. Maxwell opened at least one foreign bank account using one of his addresses, was a named director on one of Epsteins main revenue-generating companies and traded stock in a company they were both invested in, details that havent been previously reported. The pair discussed undergoing a shared fertility procedure, long after Maxwell claims she largely disassociated from him. They corresponded about discrediting women who raised allegations against them, including in one exchange where Maxwell said she planned to circulate compromising information on one of Epsteins sexual-abuse victims.
The emails include a spreadsheet itemizing nearly 2,000 gifts, luxury items and payments totaling $1.8 million, with notations indicating they were intended for Epsteins friends, business associates and victims. The spreadsheet, which was created by one of Epsteins accountants, includes a $35,000 watch that was earmarked for a former Bill Clinton aide; a $71,000 purchase at a Lexus dealership for one of Epsteins lawyers; and other items, such as lingerie and chocolates, some for teenage girls who later lodged sexual abuse complaints against Epstein and Maxwell. The spreadsheet indicates that Maxwell helped Epstein arrange many of the items; it doesnt specify whether the intended recipients were ever offered or actually accepted the gifts.

OP
The fate of the humanity could depend on whether Epstein's criminal cabal is outed and eradicated

They are welcome to read them if they like. It's the internet. Expect things that make no sense.
