Epstein Files: Full List of 300 Names Released as British Figures Face Fresh Scrutiny
Attorney General Pam Bondi has released the complete alphabetical list of 300 celebrities and public figures appearing in the Jeffrey Epstein files, marking the first comprehensive disclosure of names connected to the disgraced financier's extensive network.
The release, comprising millions of emails, photographs and letters, includes prominent British figures whose involvement raises serious questions about the extent of Epstein's influence within Britain's political and royal establishments.
British Establishment Under Scrutiny
Most concerning for Britain is the repeated appearance of Prince Andrew, who faces mounting pressure to testify before the US Congress about his relationship with the convicted sex trafficker. The Duke of York stands accused of passing sensitive government information to Epstein, allegations that strike at the heart of national security concerns.
Peter Mandelson, the veteran Labour politician now 72, appears multiple times in photographs within the files. Police have launched a criminal investigation into claims he provided market-sensitive government information to Epstein, potentially compromising Britain's economic interests.
The files also reference Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Prince Harry, though both men have no documented links to Epstein and never visited his private Caribbean island. Their inclusion appears solely through news reports and correspondence referencing British politics.
International Network of Influence
The comprehensive list spans from Alexander Acosta to Paolo Zampolli, revealing the extraordinary reach of Epstein's connections across entertainment, politics and business. Notable figures include Cher, Jay Z, Woody Allen, Robert De Niro, and Kevin Spacey.
American political figures feature prominently, including President Donald Trump, Vice-President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and the Obamas and Clintons.
Historical figures also appear, including Margaret Thatcher, Elvis Presley, and Pope John Paul II, demonstrating how Epstein's influence extended across decades of public life.
Transparency Claims Disputed
Bondi's office insists no records were withheld based on "embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity," including protection of government officials and foreign dignitaries. However, survivors dispute these transparency claims.
One victim, abused by Epstein at age 15, told the Mirror: "They're telling us everything has been released, but we know three million files are still being held back. How is that transparency?"
"For years, we were told to wait, to trust the process, while powerful people were protected," she continued. "Survivors have had to relive this over and over again, and we still don't have the full truth."
The Epstein Legacy
Jeffrey Epstein died in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking underage girls. His associate Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted on five child sex trafficking charges in 2021 after a four-week trial in New York.
The Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed by President Trump, mandates the release of all unclassified records relating to Epstein and Maxwell, with redactions only permitted to protect victims' identities and ongoing investigations.
As pressure mounts for full disclosure, questions remain about whether Britain's establishment figures will face proper scrutiny for their connections to one of history's most notorious criminals.
