New Epstein island pictures give 'harrowing look behind closed doors' with masks on wall and chalkboard messages

(The Independent) Never-before-seen photos and videos, released Wednesday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, reveal details of late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s estate on his infamous private island.

Among the trove of unearthed images is what appears to be a dentist chair in a room adorned with decorative masks of bald men’s faces hanging on the walls, as well as another room featuring a chalkboard with the words “power,” “deception,” and “music.”

Another features a large shower room stacked with bins of towels and blankets.

“Oversight Dems have received never-before-seen photos and videos of Jeffrey Epstein’s private island that are a harrowing look behind Epstein’s closed doors,” the Democrats wrote on X. “See for yourself. We won't stop fighting until we end this cover-up and deliver justice for the survivors.”

They didn't want to be recognized.
And the younger children at first may have liked the masks.

The US version is cleaned up (mostly)

It's about the secret "ceremonies" of the decadent rich. In the movie, sex is only depicted (and hidden) between actors. Left to the imagination whether the guests participate, but they all do wear masks and costumes.

Except the organist, who wears a suit.

Kubrick died soon after exposing the sex cult of the rich and presumably famous. Cue conspiracy theories.

To give you some idea of the fantasy world, here's the manual for staff at Jeffrey's Palm Beach residence. (3.7MB PDF)

In the words of Juan Alessi, the man tasked with Epstein property's upkeep between 1990 and 2002, the document was "very degrading."

"Most of the pages, they were just unbelievable to me," groused Alessi, the ex-house manager for Epstein. "They were written for the employees. And it was—I wasn't hire[d] to do that type of work."

During his cross-examination, Alessi compared some of his work to "slavery," saying he was on call 24 hours a day when the top boss, Epstein, was in town. He also described Ghislaine Maxwell, on trial for charges of sex trafficking and alleged violations of the Mann Act, as the "lady of the house" and an exacting taskmaster in her own right.

Over the course of two days, Alessi described cleaning Epstein's sex toys, including a "large dil**" that he found in Epstein's massage room.

"It looked like a huge




Degrading is the word for Epstein and his buddy Donald.
