New Epstein Documents Reveal Details About His Life
Guest and Jeffrey Epstein attend the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show at the Plaza Hotel in New York City on August 1, 1995. Credit - Patrick McMullan—Getty Images Previously unseen letters to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, along with photographs from inside his seven-story Manhattan mansion, were published by the New York Times on Tuesday. The tranche of pictures and letters from well-known artists and politicians offers a glimpse into the New York financier's life and relationships in the years leading up to his arrest for sex trafficking in 2019. They include messages for his 63rd birthday in 2016 from director Woody Allen, former prime minister of Israel Ehud Barak, real estate billionaire Mortimer Zuckerman, along with linguist and political activist Noam Chomsky. 'Being neighbors, my wife Soon-Yi and I have been invited for dinner many times. Always accept, always interesting. Wide variety of interesting people at every dinner just about Politicians, scientists, teachers, magicians, comedians, intellectuals, journalists…' Allen's letter reportedly says. He then likens the dinners to those at the castle to the 1931 movie adaptation of Dracula Dracula, where 'where Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place.' Read More: A Timeline of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein's Relationship as It Draws Renewed Attention Another letter from Barak and his wife reportedly describes Epstein as a 'collector of people.' The Times did not publish a scan of this letter as it did with Allen's, but reports that it concludes with a refrain that Epstein's friends may "enjoy your table for many more years to come.' TIME attempted to reach Barak, Chomsky, Zuckerman, and Allen for comment. The New York Times also published photographs from inside Epstein's mansion showing him with powerful global and financial figures Pope John Paul II, Mick Jagger, Elon Musk, Bill Clinton and Fidel Castro. They photograph a framed dollar bill signed by billionaire Bill Gates, with the caption 'I was wrong!' written on it. Also framed is the now-infamous photo of Donald Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Epstein and Maxwell, taken in 2000, but with Maxwell not in frame. Epstein's relationship with the rich and powerful has been the subject of intense speculation in the years since his arrest and death by suicide in 2019. Read more: Is Donald Trump Named in the Epstein Files—and Why Won't the Questions Go Away? The Wall Street Journal reported last month that Trump had sent his own letter to Epstein in a book for his 50th birthday in 2003—long before his crimes became public knowledge. Trump has denied writing the letter and accompanying 'bawdy' drawing that the Journal reports is in the book, and the President sued the newspaper's parent firms Dow Jones and News Corp, its owner Rupert Murdoch, and two reporters over the report. The President has sought to play down his connection to Epstein over the years. He has said consistently that he broke off his friendship long before any allegations of his crimes came to light. He recently gave more details about the split when he said he fell out with the financier after Epstein 'stole' Virginia Giuffre, who later became a victim of Epstein, from the President's spa at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, where she worked as a 16-year-old in 2000. The Trump Administration has faced criticism for its refusal to release the so-called 'Epstein files,' after many within Trump's inner circle claimed for years that their contents would expose serious crimes by powerful people. The case has consumed both Republicans and Democrats as both parties search for answers. On Tuesday, the House Oversight Committee, led by Republicans, subpoenaed the Justice Department on files related to Epstein, calling for the DOJ to turn over all investigative materials related to his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell's sex trafficking operation. Just last week, Maxwell was quietly moved to a minimum-security prison in Texas, soon after she met with the DOJ's Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, prompting anger from Democrats.

DOJ: Ex-Heat security staffer stole millions in game-worn gear from team, including LeBron James Finals jersey that later sold for $3.7M
A former Miami Heat security officer is at the center of a multi-million dollar heist of game-worn gear that involved the theft of more than 400 items including a $3.7 million LeBron James jersey from team facilities, the U.S. Department of Justice alleges. Per the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Southern District of Florida, 62-year-old Marcos Thomas Perez of Miami appeared in federal court Tuesday to face a charge of transporting and transferring stolen goods in interstate commerce. The news arrives days after NBA analyst Amin Elhassan reported on the "The Dan LeBatard Show" that the Heat had been robbed of millions of dollars in memorabilia in 'one of the largest if not the largest memorabilia heists in the history of this country." [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Per the DOJ, Perez worked as a security officer for the Heat from 2016 to 2021 and later worked as a security staffer for the NBA from 2022-25. A 25-year retired veteran of the Miami Police Department, Perez was trusted by the Heat with access to a secure equipment room in the Heat's home arena that stored hundreds of game-worn jerseys and other memorabilia that was intended for display in a Heat museum that has yet to be built, according to the DOJ. The DOJ alleges that Perez repeatedly accessed the room over the course of his employment and stole "400 game-worn jerseys and other items," then sold them across multiple internet marketplaces, frequently for below market value. Per the DOJ, Perez sold more than 100 stolen items for approximately $2 million. One of the items that Perez stole was a game-worn LeBron James jersey from the NBA Finals that he sold for $100,000 and was later sold at auction for $3.7 million, the DOJ alleges. That jersey appears to be James' jersey from Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals in which the Heat beat the San Antonio Spurs and James was named Finals MVP after securing his second NBA title. At the time of the auction, it was the third-highest price ever secured for a game-worn jersey, behind a Michael Jordan 1998 NBA Finals jersey ($10.91 million) and Argentinian soccer legend Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" jersey ($9.28 million). It wasn't reported who bought the jersey at that price, but it was sold via a legitimate auction conducted by Sotheby's. Per the DOJ, a search of Perez's residence on April 3 resulted in the recovery of nearly 300 other game-worn jerseys and pieces of memorabilia. The Heat confirmed that the items were stolen from their facilities, according to the DOJ. The FBI is continuing to investigate the matter. The DOJ did not announce what type of penalty Perez faces if he's convicted. The Heat have not publicly acknowledged the alleged heist.
