1. They are almost unreadable. Is that the point?

[brooklynite]

3. This is the document that exists

[niyad]

7. I realize that. It just does not seem to live up to expectations.

[brooklynite]

9. I don 't tend to start with expectations.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

23. You are a regular Vulcan

[brooklynite]

24. No, just a realist.

[vapor2]

8. try PDF format to read

[LeftInTX]

13. Journalists will likely transcribe it

[Docreed2003]

2. Lots of "Epstein, +1Male, +1 Male" etc

Not surprising in the least that Epstein would keep records vague.

[former9thward]

4. I looked at a few pages. A lot of initials.

I saw Donald Trump, his wife Marla, Senator George Mitchell, Senator John Glenn, a bunch of "one male" or "one female" or various initials of who knows who. Bill Clinton shows up twice on page 91 along with Niomi Campbell. One entry with 3 Secret service agents and one with 10 agents.

[Quakerfriend]

5. And, lots of first names only.

Many trips with “Andy”- could be Prince Andrew.

[ismnotwasm]

6. Hard to read, but I saw Trumps name at least 5 times

Which is kinda interesting
Edit..also Alan Dershowitz at least a couple of times

Edit again, that 1 male or 1 female crap is creepy. At some point someone brought their baby. At least I hope it was just a visit

Edit : Bill Clinton along with Naomi Campbell, Kevin Spacey

[LudwigPastorius]

10. There are a few redactions in the later logs.

Are those underaged victims or something else entirely?

[RockRaven]

11. 118 pages, and hand-written...

I think I will let some miserable journalist slog through the list, and read about what they say they found a couple days from now.

[Johnny2X2X]

12. What's the point of these?

We all know Epstein had rich and famous friends.

[jmowreader]

14. The first Trump entry is on page 27

Note to all: you can download this as a PDF. Do that. It's easier to work with.

In the early pages Itzhak Perlman and his wife appear a few times.

Page 32 has a couple entries for Senator George Mitchell.

Page 43 (dated 1996) lists John Glenn and Alan Dershowitz. Glenn went once, Dershowitz three times.

On page 96 there's an entry where he took Bill Clinton to the Azores. However, that flight was on a Boeing 727, not Epstein's Gulfstream II.

Very strange log. Looks like the guy was flying a who's who of rich people around.

[GoCubsGo]

22. I'm not surprised that he flew around rich and famous people.

Sometimes it's just about access to rich and famous people, for whatever reason. There's a good chance he was flying some of these people around in order to try to paint an air of respectability. If people see you giving Bill Clinton a free ride to the Azores to do some work with his charity foundation, they're going to look at you as a good guy, not as a sex trafficker.

[brettdale]

15. So the list is just

People who visited his island and nothing about which of them raped underage girls.

[Bluesaph]

16. Can they subpoena the pilot?

[former9thward]

17. Subpoena him for what reason?

The case is already over. This is just evidence being released since it is over.

[EllieBC]

18. For goodness sake, just release all of them clearly!

Not you, OP. I mean the person holding all the names.

Will it cause a meltdown on all sides? Probably. Lots of politicians and celebs doing shit they shouldn’t be doing? Very very likely.

So what. Let it out. Let’s know who is human garbage now.

[newdayneeded]

19. the only thing that'll get

talked about in the news will be Clinton's name on there.

[harumph]

20. wonder whose names have been redacted - pp. 115...

[sarcasmo]

21. A lot of Elvis Presley and John Smith.

[Eliot Rosewater]

27. Elvis?

A lot of Elvis?

[Rebl2]

25. Unreadable

[bigtree]

26. the judge called them associates

..the trend has been to make them all out to be clients.

Here, the use of 'contacts' looks to be a similar effort to tag them with the worst of what Epstein was accused of.

I recall that he was a consultant in early 80's recovering stolen money for clients from fraudulent brokers and lawyers. He was deep in a business relationship with Saudi Arabian defense contractor Adnan Khashoggi.

He spent time after that as a corporate vulture, much like Mitt Romney.

Point is, many of these 'associates' may well have had nefarious business dealings with Epstein and had no knowledge of his pimp work, but that's not what the build-up to this list is about.

It's going to be more of a vehicle for innuendo and guilt by association of the worst he was accused of, however well deserved, than revelations about involvement in sex trafficking, which most folks hanging on the revealing of this list are looking to make out of it.

29. Not a contact list. His contact list (little black book) released long ago.
