House Democrats on Friday released a second batch of photos from the estate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, which include pictures of several high-profile figures.
The images were part of 19 that were released by the House Oversight Committee, with more expected to be made public in the coming days. Among those featured are President Donald Trump and longtime ally Steve Bannon; former President Bill Clinton and his girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell; Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates; movie director Woody Allen; billionaire entrepreneur Richard Branson; prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz.
The photos show several high-profile figures with Epstein, but do not appear to indicate any involvement in illegal activity. The images were redacted by House Democrats before their release, leaving some faces blocked out or details obscured.
One image shows a younger Trump posing for a photo with two women on one side and three women on his other side wearing what look to be artificial Hawaiian leis. Another shows Trump standing next to Epstein at an event while speaking to a blond woman whose face is redacted.
Clinton appears in another photo, signed by him, posing with Epstein and Maxwell.
Bannon had been working on a documentary about Epstein when the photos were taken, although no footage has ever been released. In one photo, Epstein is sitting behind a desk with Bannon on the opposite side; in another, they stand together taking a selfie through a mirror.
Allen, who faces child sexual abuse allegations dating back to the 1990s, appeared in several photos with Epstein. "We never, ever saw Jeffrey with underage girls," Allen said in an interview.
Gates was also featured in two photos released by the committee, including one showing him standing with Prince Andrew. Clinton's spokesman said he had "nothing" to do with the events.
Epstein owned two private islands where he was accused of abusing girls and young women. In November, Democrats on the Oversight Committee released over 150 photos and videos from his estate, which were received from the Epstein estate.
A federal judge in New York on Wednesday granted the Department of Justice's request to unseal grand jury records in Epstein's sex trafficking case.
