TheJeffrey Epsteinfiles have set off a wave of public outrage around the world and the photo evidence is among the most shocking in the tranche of three million documents released by the Justice Department.
One image in particular shows former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor looming over a young woman sprawled on the floor - a photograph that has proved more ruinous to its subject than any other in the cache.
The 66-year-old was arrested Thursday over allegedly supplying Epstein with trade secrets, becoming the first member of theRoyal Familyto be detained since 1647.
Other photos show Epstein in intimate settings with political titans:Donald Trumpand the financier chat with a supermodel,Bill Clintonswims with his co-conspiratorGhislaine Maxwelland Steve Bannon poses for a selfie.
Then there are more disturbing moments. Epstein cackles as he chases young women around his kitchen, and in another picture a woman appears to writhe in his arms as he gropes her backside.
In his sprawling New York mansion, Epstein left not-so-subtle clues about his perversions. The home, visited by the likes ofBill GatesandWoody Allen, featured nude paintings of children, statues of little girls and a massage room decorated with erotic artwork.
The images were kept sealed by the Justice Department after Epstein was found hanged in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019 whileawaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
Below are the most shocking images from files released by the DOJ and Congress over the last three months. The photos are not evidence of wrongdoing by the individuals.
