    We already have the flight logs, right? These people flew to the island, that should be enough for something. It’s not like we’re going to find a QuickBooks pricelist with clients and sex acts in it.

      If I were gonna run an extremely illegal operation for the rich and powerful, you can be damn sure I’d be keeping receipts for blackmail / insurance.

      Some people say that he rigged his homes full of hidden cameras. Probably so he could blackmail people. If that’s true there might be some sort of black book of the people he is extorting.

        I vaguely remember that the big stink before Epstein’s “suicide” was that he admitted to keeping detailed documentation of the clients and the “services” he provided.

        It’s where the hubbub around " release ‘the List’ " started, iirc.

        I don’t think this would have been a cash business, certainly not the kind that would have involved taking transactions into a bank account. There are lots of ways to hide money, and the mega-rich are well-versed in them.

        That said, they’d also have to have been incredibly disciplined not to leave a digital trail anywhere. Flights, Appointments, there would have to have been spreadsheets and documents, unless they were ALL paper…
