NYC’s socialist mayor dragged into Epstein scandal as files claim his MOTHER spent evening at Ghislaine Maxwell’s house: Live updates

Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was banned from the online gaming platform Xbox Live in 2013 for threatening his fellow gamers, according to government files.

The email released by the Department of Justice Fiday notifies Epstein that his access ‘been permanently suspended due to harassment, threats, and/or abuse of other players.’

‘This conduct has been determined to be severe, repeated, and/or excessive,’ continues the email, dated December 19, 2013

No specific behaviors are given for the late financier’s ban from Xbox Live, which allows users to connect to play games against one another via the internet on the Microsoft console.

An employee at Epstein’s Florida estate, whose name was redacted, told the FBI his duties included fanning $100 bills on a table near Epstein’s bed, placing a gun between the mattresses in his bedroom and cleaning up after Epstein’s frequent massages, which often involved rubdowns from young women or girls.

The employee recalled wiping down vibrators used during massages, throwing out tissues, laundering towels and seeing used condoms on more than one occasion. He said he did not go into Epstein’s massage room while he was receiving massages and did not witness any sexual activity between the females and Epstein.

FBI agents wrote that the employee told them Epstein also ‘enjoyed getting ice cream from a local ice cream parlor with the girls,’ allowed ‘some of the girls to drive one of his vehicles,’ and sometimes directed the employee to take them shopping at a local mall.

Among the documents released Friday was a 58-page manual that dictated staff etiquette and duties in his Florida mansion, ranging from how to interact with Epstein and Maxwell to what to stock in their bathrooms.

‘Remember that you see nothing, hear nothing, say nothing, except to answer a question directed at you. Respect their privacy,’ the manual says.

Staff were banned from addressing Epstein, Maxwell and their guests with their hands in their pockets, and from saying ‘yeah,’ ‘sure,’ ‘no problem,’ ‘you bet,’ ‘gotcha,’ ‘right’ and ‘I dunno.’ They also could not talk about the weather or any other subject unless asked.

As part of the ‘pre-arrival preparations’ for the primary bedroom, the air conditioning had to be set at 60 F (15.5 C), a gun was to be placed in a bedside table draw and tissue boxes could not be less than one-third full. Toothpaste containers in the bathrooms could not be less than one-half full.

Every car had to have two bottles of water and $100 in the glove compartment, and the gas tanks had to be at least three-quarters full.

Excerpts of the manual were introduced during Maxwell’s trial in 2021 as a former employee of Epstein’s Florida mansion testified.

Federal prosecutors in Florida came close to indicting Jeffrey Epstein in 2007, a year before he pled guilty to procuring a minor for prostitution in 2008

That was after multiple underage girls came forward and told police and FBI agents that they had been paid to give him sexualized massages.

Ultimately, the US attorney in Miami at the time, Alexander Acosta, signed off on a deal that let Epstein avoid federal prosecution. He pleaded guilty instead to a state charge of soliciting prostitution from someone under age 18 and got an 18 month jail sentence.

One of the documents released Friday, though, was a draft indictment from that period that would have brought federal charges against not just Epstein but three other people who worked for him as personal assistants. The names of those people were blacked out in the records released by the Justice Department.

The draft indictment said those people were part of a conspiracy to recruit underage girls to perform lewd acts with Epstein, summon them to his house by phone, and then to pay them for their services.

Former Harvard President and advisor to several US presidents Larry Summers is again featured in the newest Epstein files release by the Department of Justice.

Previously, Summers was revealed to have asked Epstein for tips on meeting women and even visited the billionaire pedophile’s island with his wife.

In the new release, Summers and Epstein discuss Donald Trump in the first year of the president’s first term in office.

Summers writes: ‘How guilty is Donald?’

Epstein replied: ‘your world does not understand how dumb he really is.’

Multiple emails released Friday between Jeffrey Epstein and Larry Summers, former US treasury secretary and Harvard University president, show the two men gossiping about President Donald Trump during his first presidential term.

In a 2016 email, Epstein tells Summers there is ‘zero’ chance that Trump has used coacine.

Finally, in July 2017, Summers writes to Epstein: ‘I think you friend is mentally ill.’

Epstein answers: ‘not my friend, and i ve told you that before.’

Summers has previously said he’s ‘deeply ashamed’ of his time with Epstein and took leave from his job as an economics professor at Harvard in November, following a prior file release.

Disturbing photos released in the Epstein files appear to showAndrew Mountbatten-Windsorcrouching on allfours over a female lying on the floor.

In the three photographs, a man believed to be Andrew can be seen leaning over the woman who is sprawled faceup with their arms spread out.

He is barefoot and is wearing jeans and a white polo shirt with a silver watch.Another person can be seen in the photographs, sitting in a leopard-print chair with their feet up on a table.

Like much of the material released in the Epstein files, it is unclear when or where the images were taken and no further context is given.

Email exchanges between Steve Tisch and Jeffrey Epstein show the convicted sex offender connected the New York Giants co-owner with multiple women in 2013.

Correspondence between the two came to light on Friday when the Department of Justice released more than three million documents related to the late pedophile financier.

The emails between Tisch, a prominent Hollywood film producer, and Epstein show the pair discussing a number of women and organizing meetings with them, according to The Athletic.

Tisch also offered Epstein tickets to watch a Giants game in his suite and extended invitations to others. Epstein also invited Tisch to come to his private Caribbean island, although it’s unclear if he ever went.

Daily Mail has contacted both the Giants and Escape Artists, Tisch’s production company, for comment.

In a letter to Congress, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche noted that tens of thousands of files had been redacted or withheld due to legal privileges such as protecting attorney-client work communications.

The letter obtained by The Associated Press said that the Justice Department within 15 days of Fridays release will submit to Congress a ‘formal report with a summary of redactions made and a list of all government officials and politically exposed persons named or referenced in the released materials.’

Blanche said the department remains committed to protecting the privacy of victims and welcome continued engagement from victims and their counsel. He said officials have created an email inbox for victims to contact authorities if they need to raise concerns about redactions.

The group of survivors and their relatives said the massive cache of files released Friday protects the names of their abusers at their expense.

‘This latest release of Jeffrey Epstein files is being sold as transparency, but what it actually does is expose survivors,’ reads the statement provided by the publicist of the late Virginia Giuffre, one of the most vocal Epstein accusers.

‘As survivors, we should never be the ones named, scrutinized, and retraumatized while Epsteins enablers continue to benefit from secrecy.’

The group dismissed the notion that Fridays release represented all the documents that should be legally made public.

‘This is not over. We will not stop until the truth is fully revealed and every perpetrator is finally held accountable,’ the statement reads.

Jeffrey Epstein organised forAndrew Mountbatten-Windsor to have dinner with a 26-year-old Russian woman in London in 2010, according to newly-released emails.

In a message sent to a contact saved as ‘The Duke’, the paedophile financier wrote:’I have a friend who i think you might enjoy having dinner with’ her name is…she will be london 20-24 [sic].’

In response, the man who is believed to be Andrew, said: ‘Of course. I am in Geneva until the morning of 22nd but would be delighted to see her.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick communicated with Jeffrey Epstein several years after he previously claimed they stopped speaking.

As part of the tranche released by the Department of Justice, the pair contacted one another through intermediaries in 2011 and 2012, after Epstein served time in jail for procuring a minor for prostitution in 2008.

Epstein’s assistant relays him multiple times about Lutnick returning Epstein’s calls or meeting with him and both Lutnick’s wife Allison and an assistant emailed Epstein’s assistant to discuss having lunch and a visit on one Epstein’s islands in the Caribbean.

Lutnick, a New York native, lived next door to Epstein for 10 years but said in an interview last year that he vowed he ‘will never be in the room with that disgusting person ever again’ after a 2005 encounter at the billionaire pedophile’s home.

Lutnicks wife, Allison, said in an email that was forwarded to Epstein: ‘We are looking forward to visiting you.’

She also told Epstein’s representative that she and her husband had an 188-foot yacht so they could properly anchor.

The two mens lives continued to intersect as recently as 2018, documents show. That year, Epstein contributed to a philanthropic dinner honoring Lutnick, according to email exchanges. The year prior, the two men sent each other emails about the construction of a building across the street from both of their homes.

A Commerce Department spokesperson told The Daily Mail: ‘This is nothing more than a failing attempt by the legacy media to distract from the administrations accomplishments including securing Trillions of dollars in investment, delivering historic trade deals and fighting for the American worker.’

‘Secretary Lutnick had limited interactions with Mr. Epstein in the presence of his wife and has never been accused of wrongdoing.’

The world’s richest man Elon Musk emailed late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein about what day would be suitable to visit the financier’s infamous island for a wild party, according to government files.

‘What day/night will be the wildest party on =our (sic) island?’ Musk emailed Epstein on November 25, 2012, according to Department of Justice documents released on Friday.

‘Probably just Talulah and me,’ Musk said, referencing British actress Talulah Riley, his ex-wife.

The Tesla CEO’s inquiry was in response to an email Epstein sent Musk the day before, asking: ‘How many people will you be for the heli to island?’

At the time Musk emailed Epstein, the financier had already been convicted of sex crimes against minors in Florida.

Musk’s appearance in the files comes after he accused President Donald Trump over the summer of covering up the sordid documents to protect himself – a claim that caused a high-profile rupture between the two.
