Images and video of Jeffrey Epstein’s private Caribbean island have been released by politicians in the US.
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee said on X that they were “a harrowing look behind Epstein’s closed doors”.
“We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and to help piece together the full picture of Epstein’s horrific crimes,” said representative Robert Garcia.
“We won’t stop fighting until we deliver justice for the survivors.”
The images show empty courtyards, bedrooms and other rooms from his villa.

Robert Garcia urged President Trump to release “all the files, now”.
Mr Trump previously opposed the move, but last month US Congress voted overwhelmingly in favour and the president signed off the bill.
The US Department of Justice now has until mid-December to release thousands of files linked to civil and criminal cases involving Epstein.
The files could shed more light on the paedophile financier, who socialised with figures including Donald Trump, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Peter Mandelson.
Their connections have already been revealed in more than 20,000 other files disclosed last month.
But much more is set to follow as the Epstein Files Transparency Act demands release of all files relating to Epstein, including investigations, prosecutions and custodial matters, as well as records connected to Ghislaine Maxwell.

Politicians have said the files’ release is critical to uncovering whether powerful figures have received special treatment or protection.
It’s also a response to criticism of a controversial 2008 plea deal in Florida, which allowed Epstein to avoid federal sex trafficking charges and plead guilty to lesser state charges.
Epstein killed himself in a prison cell in New York in 2019 but conspiracy theories remain over his death and the people he associated with.
