Application for Search and Seizure

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK) ss.: 
:eing duly sworn, deposes and says: 
I. Introduction 
A. Affiant 
1. 
I have been a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") since 
2012. As such, I am a "federal law enforcement officer" within the meaning of Federal Rule of 
Criminal Procedure 41(a)(2)(C), that is, a government agent engaged in enforcing the criminal 
laws and duly authorized by the Attorney General to request a search warrant. I have been 
employed by the FBI for three and a half years, and I am currently assigned to investigate violations 
of criminal law relating to the sexual exploitation of children. I have gained expertise in this area 
through classroom training and daily work related to these types of investigations. As part of my 
responsibilities, I have been involved in the investigation of sex trafficking cases, and have been 
involved in search warrants for physical premises. 
2. 
I make this Affidavit in support of an application pursuant to Rule 41 of the Federal 
Rules of Criminal Procedure for a second warrant to search the premises specified below (the 
"Subject Premises") for the purpose of 
seizing the items and information described in 
Attachment A. This affidavit is based upon my personal knowledge; my review of documents and 
other evidence; and my conversations with other law enforcement personnel. Because this 
1 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164619
Sivu 3 / 28
affidavit is being submitted for the limited purpose of establishing probable cause, it does not 
include all the facts that I have learned during the course of my investigation. Where the contents 
of documents and the actions, statements, and conversations of others are reported herein, they are 
reported in substance and in part, except where otherwise indicated. 
B. The Subject Premises 
3. 
The Subject Premises are particularly described as a multi-story, single-family 
residence located at 9 East 71st Street, New York, New York, and include all locked and closed 
containers found therein. As detailed further herein, the Subject Premises is believed to be owned, 
possessed and controlled by JEFFREY EPSTEIN, a target subject of this investigation. A 
photograph of the front entrance to the Subject Premises is included below: 
C. The Target Subject and the Subject Offenses 
4. 
The Target Subject of this investigation is JEFFREY EPSTEIN. 
5. 
For the reasons detailed below, I believe that there is probable cause to believe that 
the Subject Premises contain evidence, fruits, and instrumentalities of violations of Title 18, United 
2 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164620
Sivu 4 / 28
States Code, Section 1591 (sex trafficking of minors); and Title 18, United States Code, Section 
371 (sex trafficking conspiracy) (the "Subject Offenses") by the Target Subject. 
B. Probable Cause and the First Warrant 
A. Probable Cause Regarding the Target Subject's Commission of the 
Subject Offenses 
6. 
On or about July 2, 2019, a grand jury in this District returned an Indictment 
charging JEFFREY EPSTEIN with the Subject Offenses. A copy of the Indictment is attached 
hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated by reference. 
B. Probable Cause Justifying Search of the Subject Premises 
The Indictment and Victim-1 
7. 
As set forth in Exhibit A, from at least in or about 2002, up to and including at least 
in or about 2005, JEFFREY EPSTEIN sexually abused multiple minor girls in the Southern 
District of New York and elsewhere. During that time and continuing to the present, EPSTEIN 
possessed and controlled the Subject Premises, which is described in Exhibit A as "the New York 
Residence." 
8. 
As further set forth in paragraphs 8 through 10 of Exhibit A, from at least in or 
about 2002, up to and including at least in or about 2005, EPSTEIN sexually abused numerous 
minor victims at the Subject Premises. In particular, and as alleged in the Indictment, when a 
victim arrived at the Subject Premises, she would be escorted to a room inside the Subject Premises 
with a massage table, where she would perform a massage on EPSTEIN. The victims, who were 
as young as 14 years of age, were told by EPSTEIN or other individuals to partially or fully undress 
before beginning the "massage." During the encounter, EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and 
scope of physical contact with his victim to include, among other things, sex acts such as groping 
and direct and indirect contact with the victims' genitals. EPSTEIN typically would also 
3 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164621
Sivu 5 / 28
masturbate during these sexualized encounters, ask victims to touch him while he masturbated, 
and touch victims' genitals with his hands or with sex toys. Following each encounter, EPSTEIN 
or one of his employees or associates paid the victim in cash. 
9. 
As set forth in paragraphs 12 through 13 of Exhibit A, to further facilitate his ability 
to abuse minor girls in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN asked and enticed certain of his victims to 
recruit additional minor girls to perform "massages" and similarly engage in sex acts with 
EPSTEIN. When a victim would recruit another minor girl for EPSTEIN, he paid both the victim-
recruiter and the new victim hundreds of dollars in cash. EPSTEIN knew that his victims were 
underage, including because certain victims told him their age. 
10. 
One of the victims identified in paragraph 22 of Exhibit A is Victim-1. As part of 
the FBI's investigation of EPSTEIN, other law enforcement officers have interviewed Victim-1.1
I know from my conversations with other law enforcement officers who have interviewed Victim-
1, that Victim-1 has provided the following information, in substance and in part: 
a. Between approximately 2002 and 2005, EPSTEIN sexually abused Victim-1 on 
multiple occasions in the Subject Premises. This sexual abuse all occurred when Victim-1 was 
under the age of 18. 
b. During that same period, Victim-1 observed multiple floors of the Subject Premises 
and numerous individual rooms within the Subject Premises. Victim-1 has provided detailed 
1 In meetings with the Government, Victim-1 has disclosed that, approximately a decade ago, she 
committed marriage fraud in order to obtain a green card and, subsequently, U.S. citizenship. She 
has also disclosed personal substance abuse, primarily involving the abuse of prescription drugs, 
during various periods between the early 2000s and 2019. Victim-1 has also disclosed having 
worked for approximately a year at a "happy-ending" massage parlor, performing paid sex acts. 
Victim-I is currently pursuing a civil damages claim against EPSTEIN for his sexual abuse of her. 
Information provided by Victim-1 has proven reliable and has been corroborated by independent 
evidence, including documents and records obtained during the investigation and the accounts of 
other victims whom Victim-1 has never met. 
4 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164622
Sivu 6 / 28
descriptions of certain aspects of the interior of the Subject Premises, including Victim-I's 
memory of specific details regarding the layout, furnishings, decorations, and floor pattern of 
various areas within the Subject Premises. 
c. In particular, Victim-1 observed that a bathroom in the residence contained what 
appeared to be a bust of a human torso (the "Torso"). Victim-1 believed that the Torso was 
possibly a type of sex toy. 
d. In addition, Victim-I recalled observing what appeared to be a taxidermied dog in 
a living space in the Subject Premises. 
e. Victim-1 recalled that EPSTEIN typically abused her in a room she described as a 
"massage room," (the "Massage Room"), which contained a massage table, and was decorated 
with artwork depicting naked women, hung on walls that appeared to be adorned with fabric. 
f. Victim-1 has not been in the Subject Premises since approximately 2005. 
The July 6.2019 Search Warrant of the Subject Premis_es 
11. 
On or about July 6, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate 
Judge, signed a search warrant authorizing a search of the Subject Premises. The search warrant 
is attached as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference herein. 
12. 
At approximately 6 p.m. on or about July 6, 2019, law enforcement officers (the 
"Search Team") commenced executing the search warrant at the Subject Premises; I joined the 
Search Team thereafter. While inside the Subject Premises, I observed the following, among other 
things: 
a. 
Inside a closet within the entryway to a bathroom in the Subject Premises, I 
observed what appear to be two busts of female human torsos, from their upper pelvis to the neck. 
In addition, inside the bathroom, I observed a third bust, which appears to depict a female body 
5 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164623
Sivu 7 / 28
from the ribcage to the clavicle (collectively, (the "Busts"). The Busts do not appear to be designed 
for use as sex toys, and appear instead to be artwork. Nevertheless, based on my conversations 
with law enforcement officers who have interviewed Victim-I, I have learned that the Busts appear 
to be generally consistent with Victim-1's description of observing the Torso in EPSTEIN's 
bathroom in the Subject Premises. Accordingly, there is probable cause to believe that the Busts 
are corroborating evidence of Victim-I's description of the Subject Premises. 
b. 
Inside the Subject Premises, I observed a room that, based on my conversations 
with law enforcement officers who have interviewed Victim-I, appears to be consistent with 
Victim-I's descriptions of the Massage Room. The room contained a table covered with a sheet, 
and appears to be a massage table. The walls appear to be covered in a type of felt-like tapestry 
fabric. I further observed two paintings and three photographs hanging on the walls of the Massage 
Room. The paintings and photographs depict nude females. One of the photographs appears to 
depict a nude girl. Based on my training and experience investigating crimes involving the sexual 
exploitation of children, the girl appears to be approximately 15 to 20 years old. 
c. 
Inside the Subject Premises, inside a closet adjacent to a bathroom, I observed a 
shelf that appears to contain several black binders, with labels on the spine of each binder. In 
particular, one of the binders is marked with a series of labels, one of which reads: "PB Girls." 
Given that the Indictment charges EPSTEIN with participating in a conspiracy to engage in sex 
trafficking of minor girls in both Palm Beach, Florida and New York, I believe that "PB Girls" 
may refer to minor victims in Palm Beach, Florida. 
d. 
Inside the Subject Premises, in what appears to be EPSTEIN's office, on or about 
the second floor of the Subject Premises, I observed what appears to be a taxidermied dog (the 
"Dog"). Based on my conversations with law enforcement officers who have interviewed 
6 
2017.08.02 
EFTA00164624
Sivu 8 / 28
Victim-I, the Dog appears to be consistent with Victim-I's description of observing a taxidennied 
dog in the Subject Premises. 
e. 
Inside the Subject Premises, I observed in plain view several sheets of stationary, 
with letterhead marked "Jeffrey Epstein." 
13. 
After observing the foregoing items, the Search Team stopped the search and froze 
the scene in order to seek a new search warrant. 
M. Conclusion and Ancillary Provisions 
14. 
Based on the foregoing, given that several items described by Victim-1 as being 
present in the Subject Premises in 2005 appear to be currently in the Subject Premises, 
I respectfully submit there is probable cause to believe that evidence of the Subject Offenses, and 
in particular the items described in Attachment A, will be located within the Subject Premises and 
therefore request the court to issue a warrant to seize the items and information specified in 
Attachment A to this affidavit and to the Search and Seizure Warrant. 
15. 
The Search Team is currently at the Subject Premises, securing the location, and 
would anticipate executing the requested search warrant immediately. However, given the late 
hour, it is anticipated that the Search Team would commence executing the search warrant after 
7 
2017.08.02

circumstances demonstrate good cause to execute the warrant after 10 p.m.

JEFFREY EPSTEIN, 
Defendant.

SEALED 
INDICTMENT 
19 Cr. 
19CRIII 490 
COUNT ONE 
(Sex Trafficking Conspiracy) 
The Grand Jury charges: 
OVERVIEW 
1. 
As set forth herein, over the course of many 
years, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, sexually exploited and .
abused dozens of minor girls at his homes in Manhattan, New .
York, and Palm Beach, Florida, among other locations. 
2. 
In particular, from at least in or about 2002, up 
to and including at least in or about 2005, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, enticed and recruited, and caused to be enticed and 
recruited, minor girls to visit his mansion in Manhattan, New 
York (the "New York Residence") and his estate in Palm Beach, 
Florida (the "Palm Beach Residence") to engage in sex acts with 
him, after which he would give the victims hundreds of dollars 
in cash. Moreover, and in order to maintain and increase his 
supply of victims, EPSTEIN also paid certain of his victims to 
recruit additional girls to be similarly abused by EPSTEIN. In 
EFTA00164628
Sivu 12 / 28
this way, EPSTEIN created a vast network of underage victims for 
him to sexually exploit in. locations including New York and 
Palm Beach. 
3. 
The victims described herein were as young as 14 
years old at the time they were abused by JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, and were, for various reasons, often particularly 
vulnerable to exploitation. EPSTEIN intentionally sought out 
minors and knew that many of his victims were in fact under the 
age of 18, including because, in some instances, minor victims 
expressly told him their age. 
4. 
In creating and maintaining this network of minor 
victims in multiple states to sexually abuse and exploit, 
JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, worked and conspired with 
others, including employees and associates who facilitated his 
conduct by, among other things, contacting victims and 
scheduling their sexual encounters with EPSTEIN at the New York 
Residence and at the Palm Beach Residence. 
FACTUAL BACKGROUND 
5. 
During all time periods charged in this 
Indictment, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, was a financier with 
multiple residences in the continental United States, including 
the New York Residence and the Palm Beach Residence. 
6. 
Beginning in at least 2002, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, enticed and recruited, and caused to be enticed and 
2 
EFTA00164629
Sivu 13 / 28
recruited, dozens of minor girls to engage in sex acts with him, 
after which EPSTEIN paid the victims hundreds of dollars in 
cash, at the New York Residence and the Palm Beach Residence. 
7. 
In both New York and Florida, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, 
the defendant, perpetuated this abuse in similar ways. Victims 
were initially recruited to provide "massages" to EPSTEIN, which 
would be performed nude or partially nude, would become 
increasingly sexual in nature, and would typically include one 
or more sox acts. EPSTEIN paid his victims hundreds of dollars 
in cash for each encounter. Moreover, EPSTEIN actively 
encouraged certain of his victims to recruit additional girls to 
be similarly sexually abused. EPSTEIN incentivized his victims 
to become recruiters by paying these victim-recruiters hundreds 
of dollars for each girl that they brought to EPSTEIN. In so 
doing, EPSTEIN maintained a steady supply of new victims to 
exploit. 
The New York Residence 
8. 
At all times relevant to this Indictment, JEFFREY 
EPSTEIN, the defendant, possessed and controlled a multi-story 
private residence on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York, 
i.e., the New York Residence. Between at least in or about 2002 
and in or about 2005, EPSTEIN abused numerous minor victims at 
the New York Residence by causing these victims to be recruited 
to engage in paid sex acts with him. 
EFTA00164630
Sivu 14 / 28
9. 
When a victim arrived at the New York Residence, 
she typically would be escorted to a room with a massage table, 
where she would perform a massage on JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant. The victims, who were as young as 14 years of age, 
were told by EPSTEIN or other individuals to partially or fully 
undress before beginning the "massage." During the encounter, 
EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of physical contact 
with his victim to include, among other things, sex acts such as 
groping and direct and indirect contact with the victim's 
genitals. EPSTEIN typically would also masturbate during these 
sexualized encounters, ask victims to touch him while he 
masturbated, and touch victims' genitals with his hands or with 
sex toys. 
10. In connection with each sexual encounter, JEFFREY 
EPSTEIN, the defendant, or one of his employees or associates, 
p'aid the victim in cash. Victims typically were paid hundreds 
of dollars in cash for each encounter. 
11. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, knew that many of 
his New York victims were underage, including because certain 
victims told him their age. Further, once these minor victims 
were recruited, many were abused by EPSTEIN on multiple 
subsequent occasions at the New York Residence. EPSTEIN 
sometimes personally contacted victims to schedule appointments 
at the New York Residence. In other instances, EPSTEIN directed 
4 
EFTA00164631
Sivu 15 / 28
employees and associates, including a New York-based employee 
("Employee-1"), to communicate with victims via phone to arrange 
for these victims to return to the New York Residence for 
additional sexual encounters with EPSTEIN. 
12. Additionally, and to further facilitate his 
ability to abuse minor girls in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, asked and enticed certain of his victims to recruit 
additional girls to perform "massages" and similarly engage in 
sex acts with EPSTEIN. When a victim would recruit another girl 
for EPSTEIN, he paid both the victim-recruiter and the new 
victim hundreds of dollars in cash.' Through these victim-
recruiters, EPSTEIN gained access to and was able to abuse 
dozens of additional minor girls. 
13. In particular, certain recruiters brought dozens 
of additional minor girls to the New York Residence to give 
massages to and engage in sex acts with JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant. EPSTEIN encouraged victims to recruit additional 
girls by offering to pay these victim-recruiters for every 
additional girl they brought to EPSTEIN. When a victim-
recruiter accompanied a new minor victim to the New York 
Residence, both the victim-recruiter and the new minor victim 
were paid hundreds of dollars by EPSTEIN for each encounter. In 
addition, certain victim-recruiters routinely scheduled these 
5 
EFTA00164632
Sivu 16 / 28
encounters through Employee-1, who sometimes asked the 
recruiters to bring a specific minor girl for EPSTEIN. 
The Palm Beach Residence 
14. In addition to recruiting and abusing minor girls 
in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, created a similar 
network of minor girls to victimize in Palm Beach, Florida, 
where EPSTEIN owned, possessed and controlled another large 
residence, i.e., the Palm Beach Residence. EPSTEIN frequently 
traveled from New York to Palm Beach by private jet, before 
which an employee or associate would ensure that minor victims 
were available for encounters upon his arrival in Florida. 
15. At the Palm Beach Residence, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, engaged in a similar course of abusive conduct. 
When a victim initially arrived at the Palm Beach Residence, she 
would be escorted to a room, sometimes by an employee of 
EPSTEIN's, including, at times, two assistants ("Employee-2" and' 
"Employee-3") who, as described herein, were also responsible 
for scheduling sexual encounters with minor victims. Once 
inside, the victim would provide a nude or semi-nude massage for 
EPSTEIN, who would himself typically be naked. During these 
encounters, EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of the 
physical contact to include sex acts such as groping and direct 
and indirect contact with the victim's genitals. EPSTEIN would 
also typically masturbate during these encounters, ask victims 
6 
EFTA00164633
Sivu 17 / 28
to touch him while he masturbated, and touch victims' genitals 
with his hands or with sex toys. 
16. In connection with each sexual encounter, JEFFREY 
EPSTEIN, the defendant, or one of his employees or associates, 
paid the victim in cash. Victims typically were paid hundreds 
of dollars for each encounter. 
17. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, knew that certain 
of his victims were underage, including because certain victims 
told him their age. In addition, as with New York-based 
victims, many Florida victims, once recruited, were abused by 
JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, on multiple additional 
occasions. 
18. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, who during the 
relevant time period was frequently in New York, would arrange 
for Employee-2 or other employees to contact victims by phone in 
advance of EPSTEIN's travel to Florida to ensure appointments 
were scheduled for when he arrived. In particular, in certain 
instances, Employee-2 placed phone calls to minor victims in 
Florida to schedule encounters at the Palm Beach Residence. At 
the time of certain of those phone calls, EPSTEIN and Employee-2 
were in New York, New York. Additionally, certain of the 
individuals victimized at the Palm Beach Residence were 
contacted by phone by Employee-3 to schedule these encounters. 
7 
EFTA00164634
Sivu 18 / 28
19. Moreover, as in New York, to ensure a steady 
stream of minor victims, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, asked 
and enticed certain victims in Florida to recruit other girls to 
engage in sex acts. EPSTEIN paid hundreds of dollars to victim-
recruiters for each additional girl they brought to the Palm 
Beach Residence. 
STATUTORY ALLEGATIONS 
20. From at least in or about 2002, up to and 
including in or about 2005, in the Southern District of New York 
and elsewhere, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, and others known 
and unknown, willfully and knowingly did combine, conspire, 
confederate, and agree together and with each other to commit an 
offense against the United States, to wit, sex trafficking of 
minors, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section.
1591(a) and (b). 
21. It was a part and object of the conspiracy that 
JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, and others known and unknown, 
would and did, in and affecting interstate and foreign commerce, 
recruit, entice, harbor, transport, provide, and obtain, by any 
means a person, and to benefit, financially and by receiving 
anything of value, from participation in a venture which has 
engaged in any such act, knowing that the person had not 
attained the age of 18 years and would be caused to engage in a 
EFTA00164635
Sivu 19 / 28
commercial sex act, in violation of Title 18, United States 
Code, Sections 1591(a) and (b)(2). 
Overt Acts 
22. In furtherance of the conspiracy and to effect 
the illegal object thereof, the following overt acts, among 
others, were committed in the Southern District of New York and 
elsewhere: 
a. 
In or about 2004, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the 
defendant, enticed and recruited multiple minor victims, 
including minor victims identified herein as Minor Victim-1, 
Minor Victim-2, and Minor Victim-3, to engage in sex acts with 
EPSTEIN at his residences in Manhattan, New York, and Palm 
Beach, Florida, after which he provided them with hundreds of 
dollars in cash for each encounter. 
b. 
In or about 2002, Minor Victim-1 was 
recruited to engage in sex acts with EPSTEIN and was repeatedly 
sexually abused by EPSTEIN at the New York Residence over a 
period of years and was paid hundreds of dollars for each 
encounter. EPSTEIN also encouraged and enticed Minor Victim-1 
to recruit other girls to engage in paid sex acts, which she 
did. EPSTEIN asked, Minor Victim-1 how old she was, and Minor 
Victim-1 answered truthfully. 
c. 
In or about 2004, Employee-1, located in the 
Southern District of New York, and on behalf of EPSTEIN, placed 
9 
EFTA00164636
Sivu 20 / 28
a telephone call to Minor Victim-1 in order to schedule an 
appointment for Minor Victim-1 to engage in paid sex acts with 
EPSTEIN. 
d. 
In or about 2004, Minor Victim-2 was 
recruited to engage in sex acts with EPSTEIN and was repeatedly 
sexually abused by EPSTEIN at the Palm Beach Residence over a 
period of years and was paid hundreds of dollars after each

period of years and was paid hundreds of dollars for each 
encounter. EPSTEIN also encouraged and enticed Minor Victim-3 
to recruit other girls to engage in paid sex acts, which she 
did. EPSTEIN asked Minor Victim••3 how old she was, and Minor 
Victim-3 answered truthfully.
