Among the many pages of filings unlocked Wednesday, a wounded Johanna Sjöberg spoke about what she perceived about Bill Clinton's connection to Epstein.
Tycoon pedophile Jeffrey Epstein once told one of his victims that Bill Clinton "liked them young," according to emotional declarations unsealed in court records for the first time.
Many of Epstein's partners were revealed Wednesday after a judge requested to unlock court records in a now-settled claim brought by Virginia Giuffre, a victim of abuse, against Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
Among the many pages of filings, another victim, Johanna Sojberg, spoke about what she understood to be Mr. Clinton's connection to Epstein as a component of the 2016 testimony that similarly indicted Andrew.
Under oath, she said Epstein told her the former president liked young women "young."
"[Epstein] once said the Clintons liked them young, referring to young women," he confirmed.
When she learned that Mr. Clinton was a partner of Epstein's, she said: "I realized she was having an affair with Bill Clinton. I didn't realize they were partners until I read the Vanity Fair article about them going to Africa together."
In any case, Ms. Sjöberg confirmed that she never met Mr. Clinton, never saw him on Epstein's Caribbean island, and that Maxwell never saw him flying in a helicopter.
In all, Mr. Clinton's name appears no less than multiple times in the original clump of archives released Wednesday.
There are no signs that the previous president engaged in any misconduct and he has not been held responsible for any wrongdoing.
His representative told CNN on Wednesday that it had been "almost too long since President Clinton last had contact with Epstein" and denied that the previous president had any knowledge of Epstein's wrongdoing.
Flight logs recently revealed that Mr. Clinton flew to locations outside the Caribbean on Epstein's private luxury jet in 2002 and 2003.
Ms. Guiffre confirmed that she once met Mr. Clinton on Epstein's Caribbean island.
Some additional records - and names - are expected to be distributed over the next few days
Ms Giuffre filed a defamation claim against Maxwell in 2015, after she accused him of lying about years of abuse she endured at the hands of Epstein and some of his inner circle.
The suit was settled in 2017 yet remains under a protective seal — protecting the identities of those named in the filing.
The Miami Messenger sued for the steady report's arrival while Maxwell's legal team tried to block it.
About 2,000 pages of reports were first unlocked in 2019, with additional archives provided in subsequent years.
Still, this steady stream of reports remained - and the names of many individuals associated with the dead pedophile, identified as Jane and John Doss, remained a mystery.
Then, at that point, in a landmark ruling last month, US District Judge Loretta Preska ruled that the report could be kept secret and the names fully unlocked after January 1.
Although the federal judge requested that the names of some of Epstein's victims remain anonymous, he revealed that there was no legal defense to keeping the names of Epstein's partners redacted as "John and Jane Doss."
This has now prepared a few famous personalities to associate themselves with the notorious shyster lender.
Many have recently linked Epstein to media reports, claims and Maxwell's initial announcement.
A portion of the report was actively distributed to some degree or entirely as a feature of other legal disputes, the appointing authority said.
Having a person's name in the archives does not guarantee that they are responsible for any misconduct.
Epstein committed suicide in a Manhattan jail while initially anticipating sexual misconduct allegations in 2019.
Maxwell was convicted in 2021 of having sex with a child and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
