The Epstein List: Names from Court Documents, Flight Logs, and the 2,897-Document Release
No single document called "the Epstein list" exists. What exists is a body of public records — court filings, flight logs, deposition transcripts, and 2,897 documents released by Congress — that together constitute the closest thing to a comprehensive accounting of Epstein's network that the public has ever seen.
This article compiles what those records actually say. Names appear here only if they appear in court filings, sworn depositions, official government documents, or the Congressional release.
How Names Enter the Public Record
There are four ways a name has entered the Epstein public record:
- Victim allegations in sworn depositions — primarily Giuffre v. Maxwell, where victims named individuals under oath
- Flight logs — passenger manifests for Epstein's aircraft, entered into civil litigation
- Document mentions — the 2,897-document Congressional release, which mentions 2,216 unique individuals
- Court settlements — individuals who settled civil suits brought by victims, implying at minimum that litigation was credible enough to resolve financially
Mention in any of these categories is not equivalent to guilt. Context matters enormously. Many individuals appear in news articles, as lawyers, as journalists, or as peripheral figures.
Names Confirmed in Court Proceedings
Jeffrey Epstein
Pleaded guilty in 2008 to two state charges: soliciting prostitution and soliciting prostitution from a minor. Arrested again in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges. Died in custody August 10, 2019. Cause of death ruled suicide; disputed by independent forensic experts.
Ghislaine Maxwell
Convicted December 29, 2021 on five federal counts including sex trafficking of a minor. Sentenced to 20 years. Currently in federal custody at FCI Tallahassee.
Prince Andrew, Duke of York
Named by Virginia Roberts Giuffre in sworn deposition as a man she was trafficked to three times. Settled Giuffre's civil suit in 2022. Terms undisclosed. He has never been criminally charged.
Alan Dershowitz
Named by Giuffre in 2015 sworn declaration. Denied all allegations. Extensive litigation followed. Settled with Giuffre in 2023. Terms undisclosed. Was part of Epstein's 2008 legal defense team that negotiated the NPA.
Jean-Luc Brunel
French modeling agent. Named by multiple victims in depositions as a procurer and participant. Arrested in France in 2020 on rape charges. Died in his Paris prison cell in 2022. Death ruled suicide.
Alexander Acosta
Not accused of trafficking. As U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, negotiated and signed the 2008 NPA. Later stated Epstein "belonged to intelligence" and he was told to leave the case alone. Resigned as Trump's Labor Secretary in 2019 following renewed scrutiny of the deal.
Names from the Flight Logs
The flight logs for Epstein's aircraft — primarily the Boeing 727 registered as N908JE — were entered into civil litigation and are part of the court record. They list:
- Bill Clinton — confirmed multiple flights; disputed total count
- Kevin Spacey — appears in flight logs; no criminal charges related to Epstein
- Chris Tucker — flight log passenger; no allegations made against him
- Stephen Hawking — confirmed visit to USVI for a science conference; no allegations
- Lawrence Krauss — multiple documented visits; acknowledged accepting Epstein funding
- Alan Dershowitz — confirmed in logs and by Dershowitz himself
- Various unnamed individuals — initials and partial names throughout the logs
Presence on a flight log does not constitute evidence of criminal conduct. Epstein used his aircraft for social travel, professional meetings, and conferences as well as for trafficking. Passenger lists include both victims and non-accused guests.
Names from the 2,897 Documents
The Congressional document release identifies 2,216 unique individuals by name across its 2,897 files. The most frequently mentioned individuals are:
| Name | Mentions | Primary context |
|---|---|---|
| Epstein | 11,958 | Subject of all documents |
| Trump | 4,437 | News coverage, correspondence |
| Dershowitz | 1,623 | Legal proceedings, NPA |
| Clinton | 1,039 | News coverage, flight logs |
| Maxwell | 704 | Criminal proceedings |
| Prince Andrew | 455 | Civil litigation, news |
| Bill Clinton | 379 | Flight logs, news coverage |
| Virginia Roberts / Giuffre | 348 | Victim testimony |
| Wexner | 162 | Financial relationship |
| Brunel | 258 | Procurement, criminal charges |
Donald Trump appears 4,437 times — more than any individual besides Epstein himself. This reflects extensive news coverage of their known social relationship during the 1990s and early 2000s, as well as the political context of Epstein's 2019 arrest under the Trump administration. The documents do not contain evidence of Trump's participation in trafficking.
The January 2024 Unsealing
In January 2024, a federal judge ordered the unsealing of documents from the Giuffre v. Maxwell civil case. The documents named dozens of additional individuals in the context of deposition questions and witness testimony.
Among those named in those unsealed filings:
- Bill Richardson — former New Mexico governor and U.N. Ambassador; named in Giuffre deposition; denied the allegations; died 2023
- George Mitchell — former U.S. Senate Majority Leader; named in deposition question; denied any impropriety
- Ehud Barak — former Israeli Prime Minister; acknowledged visiting Epstein's New York residence; denied any wrongdoing
- Glenn Dubin — hedge fund manager; named in deposition; denied allegations
- Michael Baden — forensic pathologist who examined Epstein's body and questioned the suicide ruling; named only in professional context
In most cases, the unsealed documents name individuals in the context of questions posed in depositions — not as established findings of fact. The distinction between "named in a deposition question" and "found liable" is significant.
The Unnamed Immunity
The most consequential "list" in the entire Epstein case is the one that has never been made public: the co-conspirators immunized under the 2008 Non-Prosecution Agreement.
The NPA granted immunity from federal prosecution to Epstein and to any potential co-conspirators — without naming them. The agreement was negotiated in secret, in violation of the Crime Victims' Rights Act, and signed by U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta.
Those individuals — whoever they are — have been legally protected from federal prosecution by an agreement that a federal judge found was concluded illegally. Their identities are presumably known to law enforcement. They have never been named in any public proceeding.
What Remains Unknown
The public record on the Epstein network is more extensive than most people realize — and far less complete than it should be. What we have is the result of years of civil litigation, one criminal conviction, Congressional document releases, and the work of journalists and lawyers who refused to let the case die.
What we still don't have:
- The names in the 2008 NPA immunity provision
- The contents of the safes seized from Epstein's Manhattan townhouse
- The full inventory of the hard drives and CDs found at his properties
- Any confirmed accounting of who Maxwell is or is not cooperating against
- A full, official client list
The 2,897 documents are what Congress released. They are not everything that exists. They are what made it to the public record.
That is where the work continues.
