An alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein says she has copies of blackmail videos that Epstein took of his associates and fellow sex offenders, according to Daily Wire.
In an unsealed email, Sarah Ransome made the claims in connection to Virginia Giuffre’s 2015 lawsuit against former Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
The email states: “When my friend had sexual intercourse with [redacted] and [redacted], sex tapes were, in fact, filmed on each occasion by Jeffrey.”
“Thank God she managed to get ahold of some footage of the filmed sex tapes which clearly identify the faces of [redacted] and [redacted] having sexual intercourse with her. Frustratingly enough, Epstein was not seen in any of the footage, but he was clever like that.”
Ransome also claimed that her friend sent her the footage, which implicated the men who had allegedly had sex with her friend.
She released a book about her experience and said that she is willing to testify in court.
“I will be more than willing to swear under oath and testify in court over these sex tapes,” she said. “It will break your heart into a million tiny pieces, Maureen, when you watch this footage.”
She said that she made backed up copies of the videos on USB sticks.
These are hidden at undisclosed locations.
Ransome claims that her friend was “1000% certain that the FBI did a cover-up.” It is unclear when this email was written.
In October 2016, Ransome says the U.S. government refused to help her and seemed to suggest that the CIA had hacked her emails.
Two other alleged victims of Epstein, Virginia Guiffre and Maria Farmer, have also made claims that the convicted sex criminal recorded videos of his wealthy friends having sex with girls.
An FBI agent testified in December 2021 that police had found hard drives in a safe during a raid on Epstein’s Manhattan home in July 2019.
The content of the hard drives have not been released.
