Dozens of Jeffrey Epstein associates to be publicly named after judge's ruling: report
Sealed documents naming associates of Jeffrey Epstein will be released following an order by a judge, reported The Daily Beast on Tuesday.
Manhattan federal judge Loretta Preska ordered documents unsealed Monday, according to the report.
The documents are linked to a 2017 civil lawsuit settlement against Ghislaine Maxwell, accused of facilitating the sexual abuse of Virginia Giuffre, reports show.
Preska ruled not to reveal the names of victims who hadn’t spoken publicly but ordered sealed records linked to Epstein’s recruiters, staffers and other associates to be released, the report states.
This comes after the Miami Herald, the first publication to report the details of Epstein's 2008 notorious plea deal, sued to secure the release of the documents.
Anonymous parties listed as “Does" include public figures and have 14 days to appeal, according to the report.
