Analysis: Ignore the endless Epstein distractions; Perps have already been ID’ed


by WorldTribune Staff, March 27, 2025 Real World News

There was much hype last month that Attorney General Pam Bondi was about to release the Jeffrey Epstein client list which was supposedly “sitting” on her desk.

What was released was not the client list, but information that was already known and widely reported.

But is that elusive client list even needed?

Is the Justice Department serious about seeking justice for Jeffrey Epstein’s victims?

Many of the perpetrators engaged in Epstein’s large-scale child sex-trafficking operation have already been identified, an investigative report pointed out.

“I uploaded Epstein’s Black Book on the internet in 2015, and I believe that’s the closest we’ve come to an Epstein List, because the Black Book contains the names of numerous perps. I also uploaded flight logs from Epstein’s various sojourns, which contain the names of perpetrators, too. In fact, I singlehandedly released more information about the Epstein case in 2015 than Bondi released last month,” Nick Bryant wrote in his March 21 blog.

The black book turned up in court proceedings after Epstein’s former house manager Alfredo Rodriguez tried to sell it in 2009. He was charged with obstruction of justice, but before he had, according to the FBI affidavit laying out the crime, marked up the book and an accompanying notepad with “handwritten notes” that contained “information material to the underlying investigation that would have been extremely useful in investigating and prosecuting the case, including the names and contact information of material witnesses and additional victims.”

Rodriguez, who spent 18 months in prison, died in December 2014 reportedly after a long illness and never spoke out about the black book, so the precise significance of the names he circled remains fuzzy.

Bryant noted in his March 21 blog: “In the Epstein List narrative, I’m surmising, Epstein kept a list of his child molesting clients as if he were a travel agent at the Jeffrey Epstein Travel Agency. The List narrative is problematic, because he had their names and numbers in his Black Book.

“At best, the Epstein List is wishful thinking. At worst, it’s a contrived meme.

“Now … the news cycle is on to the next bright, shiny object, which is the recently released JFK files. But let’s step back and take a hard look at the Epstein case: I’ll demonstrate that we don’t need the fictitious, vaunted Epstein List to have a list of Epstein perpetrators that’s fully grounded in reality.”

According to July 8, 2019, New York Times article, federal authorities seized “hundreds—possibly thousands—of sexually suggestive photographs of girls who appear underage, as well as hand-labeled compact discs with titles like ‘Girl pics nude,’ and, with the names redacted, ‘Young [Name] + [Name].’”Judging by the titles on the discs, Epstein was a purveyor of child rape material. The latter disc named by the New York Times is perhaps an indication of blackmail? Moreover, Business Insider reported that an FBI agent later confessed that “hard drives” were taken from the safe.

Byrant continued: “I believe that the impounded discs and hard drives would be an unparalleled source for identifying both the perpetrators and victims in the Epstein child trafficking network. If federal authorities are truly committed to justice, then Americans should be given access to the names of the perpetrators on the discs and hard drives.

“Judging by the titles on the discs, Epstein was a purveyor of child rape material. The victims of Epstein’s reportedly massive cache of child rape material need to be identified and helped with the psychological devastation that invariably accompanies being used as fodder for child rape material. It’s a rather peculiar facet of our society that people’s attention is fixated on the names of perpetrators, and, sadly, the destruction of children over the course of 25 years is never mentioned when Epstein is discussed in the media. I think the latter fact is probably the result of grooming by the mainstream media, because I’m not aware of any mainstream media outlets demanding justice for Epstein and his ilk’s numerous victims.”

As for names, there are plenty, Bryant noted:

In a defamation lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell, Virginia Giuffre accused the following men of being among her perpetrators: Alan Dershowitz, Prince Andrew, former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, billionaire Glenn Dubin, former senator George Mitchell, scientist Marvin Minsky, modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, and billionaire Les Wexner.

“The rich and powerful men named by Giuffre issued public denials, and that appeared to be the extent of their fates vis-à-vis federal law enforcement,” Bryant wrote. “As I mentioned, Epstein’s Black Book is also the source of numerous alleged perpetrators. The prime mover of the Black Book surfacing was Alfredo Rodriquez, a former Epstein house manager. He purloined a copy of Epstein’s contacts, their addresses, and phone numbers before leaving Epstein’s employ in 2005. The Black Book also contains the names of numerous victims.”

Even if the Epstein client list does not exist, just “like there’s no Jeffrey Epstein Travel Agency,” Bryant noted, “we nonetheless have lots of names. However, we don’t need names; we need prosecutions. If the federal government is actually committed to arresting the perpetrators in Epstein’s child trafficking network, we have enough names for a fantastic start.”

A New York Times article from August 29, 2019, names Ghislaine Maxwell, Sarah Kellen, Lesley Groff, Adriana Ross, Nadia Marcinkova, and Haley Robson as procurers (pimps) for the Epstein criminal enterprise.

“The case that put Maxwell in prison was truly a travesty of justice: Two of her indictments were ‘conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts’ and ‘conspiracy to transport minors with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity.’ Though Maxwell was indicted on two conspiracies, none of her criminal cohorts were indicted, which makes absolutely no sense,” Bryant wrote.

Meanwhile, Kellen, Groff, Ross, Marcinkova, and Robson have been unscathed by federal law enforcement.

“I’ve come to believe that Robson’s knowledge of Epstein’s network would probably be minimal, but Sarah Kellen, Lesley Groff, Adriana Ross, and Nadia Marcinkova have extensive knowledge of Epstein’s criminal enterprise, especially Kellen,” Bryant wrote. “So, if the Justice Department is serious about seeking justice on behalf of Epstein’s victims, I just provided four individuals who should be indicted on multiple RICO predicates and also child sex trafficking, which carries a hefty 15-year to life sentence.”

Bryant added: “When Kellen, Groff, Ross, and Marcinkova are contemplating decades in prison, they will rollover on Epstein network perpetrators in a nano second.”
