The long-sought list of the identities of more than 170 of notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's associates is due to be unsealed at the beginning of the new year. 2024 won't be a good year for everyone on that list. Nice!
On Monday, Judge Loretta Preska ordered the unsealing of the documents to identify a staggering 177 individuals who were previously only named John Doe or Jane Doe.
The soon-to-be-released documents are part of an already settled civil lawsuit alleging that Ghislaine Maxwell, who was found guilty of trafficking women and girls for Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse, facilitated the sexual abuse of Virginia Giuffre. Terms of the 2017 settlement were not disclosed to the public.
ABC News reports:
Anyone who did not successfully fight to keep their name out of the civil case could see their name become public -- including Epstein's victims, co-conspirators, and innocent associates.
Judge Loretta Preska set the release for Jan. 1, giving anyone who objects to their documents becoming public time to object. Her ruling, though, said that since some of the individuals have given media interviews their names should not stay private.
