Jeffrey Epstein filled a hidden storage unit with computers, pornographic magazines, VHS tapes and DVDs of teenagers, and training manuals for “sex slaves,” according to an inventory obtained by The Telegraph. The convicted sex offender retained several storage units for over 16 years, allegedly hiring private detectives to move items from his Florida property before a police raid in 2005.
The unit appears to have evaded law enforcement scrutiny while Epstein remained under investigation. He pleaded guilty to state charges of procuring a child for prostitution in 2008 under a controversial plea agreement. The disclosure follows the release of millions of pages of documents stemming from investigations into Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
By the time Palm Beach police raided Epstein’s mansion in 2005, most evidence had disappeared. Documents suggest Epstein paid private investigators to remove incriminating evidence into lockers across Palm Beach County. Credit card statements show he began renting lockers as early as 2003 and continued payments until his death in 2019.
The locker also contained nude photographs of alleged victims, a 2005 calendar, greeting cards, and an 8mm video cassette with footage of someone in the shower. The contents of the “sex slave” manuals remain unclear. It is not known if the items were recovered by federal investigators or are subject to release under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
The FBI declined to comment. The Justice Department has published millions of pages of files, including references to high-profile figures such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Elon Musk, and Howard Lutnick. Trump, who socialised with Epstein, insists he cut ties years before the investigation and has not been accused of wrongdoing.
