After Epstein’s arrest last month, Bill Clinton issued a statement denying that he had ever been to Epstein’s island in the Caribbean.

‘President Clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has been recently charged in New York,’ a statement released by his office read. 

‘In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the work of the Clinton Foundation.

‘Staff, supporters of the Foundation, and his Secret Service detail traveled on every leg of every trip.

Bill Clinton has denied any knowledge of Epstein’s alleged crimes

The former president released a statement in July saying that he flew on Epstein’s jet four times. He also denied ever having visited Epstein’s island in the U.S. Virgin Islands

‘He had one meeting with Epstein in his Harlem office in 2002, and around the same time made one brief visit to Epstein’s New York apartment with a staff member and his security detail. 

‘He’s not spoken to Epstein in well over a decade, and has never been to Little St. James Island, Epstein’s ranch in New Mexico, or his residence in Florida.’ 

Social media has been rife with conspiracy theories from all sides of the political spectrum speculating that the other was somehow involved in Epstein’s death.

The unsealed documents from the breaking news site, which were from a lawsuit filed by one of Epstein’s alleged ‘sex slaves’ against the pedophile’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell, include a reference to a Daily Mail article from 2011.

The article quotes Virginia Roberts Giuffre as saying that when she was about 17 years old, she was flown to Epstein’s Caribbean island, where former President Clinton attended a dinner with Epstein, Giuffre, and Maxwell.

The documents were from Giuffre’s defamation lawsuit against Maxwell, which was settled in 2017.

Giuffre testified under oath that she never witnessed Clinton or Trump having sex with one of Epstein’s alleged sex slaves.

She said that she was ‘forced to have sex with …numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known Prime Minister.’ 

Giuffre said in a 2016 deposition that Trump ‘didn’t partake in any sex with us … and never flirted with me’.

She also stated that despite Epstein talking about how the two were friends, she did not recall ever seeing him at the Palm Beach mansion.

Giuffre did however confirm that ‘Donald Trump was also a good friend of Jeffrey’s.’

A lawyer for Maxwell then asked: ‘What is the basis for your statement that Donald Trump is a good friend of Jeffrey’s’

She responded: ‘Jeffrey told me that Donald Trump is a good friend of his.’

She then followed up by asking if Giuffre had ever seen the two together, at which point she stated that she had never seen the two men interact during her time with Epstein.

Trump had been Giuffre’s boss prior to the three years that she was allegedly trafficked by Epstein around the globe.

She has stated in court papers and multiple interviews that Maxwell recruited her while she was working at Mar-a-Lago.

Trump has been quoted as saying he knew of Epstein’s penchant for being in the company of young women.

In 1992, Trump threw a party that was attended by 28 young women from a ‘calendar girl’ competition and just one guest – Epstein.

The New York Times reports that George Houraney, a Florida-based businessman who ran American Dream Enterprise, put the event together at the behest of President Trump, and was shocked at what he saw when he arrived at Mar-a-Lago that night.

‘I arranged to have some contestants fly in. At the very first party, I said, “Who’s coming tonight? I have 28 girls coming.” It was him and Epstein,’ said Houraney.

‘I said, “Donald, this is supposed to be a party with V.I.P.s. You’re telling me it’s you and Epstein?”‘

Houraney also said that he warned President Trump about Epstein, telling him that he ‘pretty much had to ban Jeff from my events.’

President Trump did not seem concerned though according to Houraney. 

‘I said, “Look, Donald, I know Jeff really well, I can’t have him going after younger girls,”‘ recalled Houraney. 

‘He said, “Look I’m putting my name on this. I wouldn’t put my name on it and have a scandal.”‘

Houraney was partners with Jill Harth at the time, both professionally and romantically, who would go on to file a lawsuit against President Trump claiming he sexually harassed her for years after their first meeting.

President Trump has denied that allegation. 

He would eventually ban Epstein from the club, though he was never an actual member. 

A former campaign worker said that he was told this ban was put in place when President Trump learned that Epstein had tried to recruit one of his workers. 

After news of Epstein’s suicide broke on Saturday, Lynne Patton (right), an official in the Trump administration, suggested that Hillary Clinton was somehow involved

And the relationship between the two soured to the point that Epstein actually blamed President Trump for the investigation into his alleged sexual abuse of young girls.  

After Epstein’s arrest last month, Trump said: ‘I had a falling out with him a long time ago. I wasn’t a fan. I was not a fan of his. That I can tell you.’

He went on to refer to Epstein as a ‘fixture in Palm Beach.’

At least two women who would file lawsuits against Epstein claim that they were recruited at the Palm Beach Club by the pedophile and Maxwell.  

In 2007, Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution in a sweetheart deal in Florida which involved him spending a year in a low-restriction detention center. 

Before that conviction, he and Clinton had socialized together and the former president flew on one of his private jets four times. Epstein also donated to The Clinton Foundation. 

Maxwell was present at Chelsea Clinton’s wedding three years later.  

She has been accused in multiple lawsuits of having helped Epstein create a sex ring filled with underage girls, with one filing alleging that Epstein sexually assault victims with Maxwell’s ‘assistance and participation.’ 

This was also after a number of underage victims in Florida had stated that Maxwell promised them educational and modeling opportunities if they acquiesced to her demands, with one comparing her and Epstein to an ‘organized crime family’  in her court filing.

In a 2002 profile on Epstein by New York magazine, a spokesperson for Clinton said of him: ‘Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science.

‘I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS.’ 

In September 2002, Clinton flew with Epstein on a week-long tour through Africa that included stops in South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Rwanda, and Mozambique.

Actors Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker were reported to have also been on the trip. 

An indictment unsealed in federal court in Manhattan on Monday accused Epstein, 66, of arranging for girls to perform nude ‘massages’ and other sex acts, and paying some girls to recruit others, from at least 2002 to 2005.

In 2016, it was reported that Clinton spent enough time aboard Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ airplane that he should be eligible for frequent flyer miles.

Flight logs reviewed by Fox News show that Clinton took 26 trips aboard Epstein’s Boeing 727 jet, more than double the 11 flights previously known.

Epstein’s jet was reportedly set up with a bed where guests had group sex with young girls.

One of them, Virginia Giuffre, has claimed she was lured into joining Epstein’s harem when she was just 15 years old and was then known as Virginia Roberts.

The former teen prostitute has said she was used as a ‘sex slave.’

Giuffre, 35, claimed she saw Clinton in 2002 on an Epstein junket to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

In 2015, the now-defunct news site Gawker reported that Clinton flew at least 11 times on Epstein’s plane between 2002 and 2003. According to the site, Clinton was accompanied on those trips by Ghislaine Maxwell (seen left with Epstein) and Epstein’s former assistant Sarah Kellen (right). Kellen has since changed her name to Sarah Vicker

But according to Fox, flight logs don’t show the former president aboard a flight headed there. St. Thomas has a landing strip long enough to accommodate the jet.

The logs do show the former president jetting to such exotic locales as Brunei, Norway, Russia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, the Azores, Africa, Belgium, China, New York, and Belgium – all on Epstein’s plane.

Traveling with Epstein was Maxwell, whom Giuffre has accused of pimping her out. 

Flight logs filed with the Federal Aviation Administration show Clinton brought as many as 10 U.S. Secret Service agents along with him on some trips.

But a journey to Asia in 2002 didn’t list any Secret Service protection. As a former president, Clinton still gets a taxpayer-funded security detail for life.

Fox News reported that Clinton would have been required to file an official form to leave his protective forces behind, although the Secret Service hasn’t responded to formal document requests.

In 2015, the now-defunct news site Gawker reported that Clinton flew at least 11 times on Epstein’s plane between 2002 and 2003. 

According to the site, Clinton was accompanied on those trips by Maxwell and Epstein’s former assistant Sarah Kellen.

Both Maxwell and Kellen ‘have been repeatedly accused in court filings of acting as pimps for [Epstein], recruiting and grooming young girls into their network of child sex workers, and frequently participating in sex acts with them, according to Gawker.  

After news of Epstein’s suicide broke on Saturday, an official in the Trump administration also spread the conspiracy theory that Hillary Clinton was somehow involved.

Lynne Patton, a regional administrator with the Department of Housing and Urban Development and Trump loyalist, shared a clip of the DailyMail.com coverage of Epstein’s death and commented: ‘Hillary’d!! P.S. Let me know when I’m supposed to feel badly about this.’

Patton included the hashtag #VinceFosterPartTwo.

Vincent Foster was deputy counsel in the White House during Bill Clinton’s first term as president.

In July 1993, he was found shot to death in a park just outside Washington, DC.

Five separate investigations ruled the death a suicide, but conspiracy theorists have continued to insist that the Clintons played a role.
