This week, former President Donald Trump hinted that he might make the highly sought-after Jeffrey Epstein client list public. During an appearance on the Lex Fridman podcast, Trump was asked about the secrecy surrounding Epstein’s notorious island and the high-profile individuals who may have visited.

Fridman noted that many people find it unusual that the client list has not been released. In response, Trump suggested that he might consider making the list public if he were re-elected in November, describing the situation as very intriguing.

When Fridman asked if Trump would release the list if given the chance, Trump replied affirmatively, indicating he would definitely contemplate it and would have no issue with doing so.

Trump also compared the Epstein case to other high-profile situations, like that of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., noting that Epstein’s case, dating back many years, involves different considerations. He mentioned that such cases are handled with care due to potential risks to certain individuals, making the Epstein case distinct from others.

In 2008, Epstein was convicted of soliciting a prostitute and luring a minor into prostitution, resulting in an eighteen-month prison term. In 2019, he faced new charges for allegedly sexually abusing multiple young girls at his Palm Beach, Florida estate and his Upper East Side apartment between 2002 and 2005.

Epstein, who was 66 years old, was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell in August 2019, with his death ruled a suicide, If found guilty, he could have served 45 years in prison.

Earlier this year, previously unreleased court documents from Epstein’s accuser, Virginia Giuffre, were made public as part of her 2015 defamation case against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s alleged accomplice. The documents revealed the names of around 170 individuals associated with Epstein, many of whom are prominent figures.
