The evidence trail around Epstein spans sealed court filings, suppressed financial reports, and missing surveillance media. Adding the most significant "known-unknowns" below sets out the road map of documents still hidden — obtaining them would expose the decision-makers who enabled Epstein, the money flows that financed him, and the official lapses that let him operate.

Key additions to business, digital, and safe-content sections

  • Business: add grand-jury file, Maxwell deposition, USVI subpoena returns, DOJ FOIA-withheld FBI file.
  • Digital accounts: seized servers & forensic images, CBP APIS datasets.
  • Financial: SAR packets, Deutsche Bank audit, settlement valuation schedules.
  • Safe contents: Israeli alias passport, un-redacted contact book, original storage devices.

Obtaining or unsealing the above would map the money, the network, and the institutional failures that sustained Epstein's enterprise, giving investigators and the public the missing context now locked behind redactions and exemptions.
