The U.S. Department of Justice on January 30, 2026 released more than three million pages of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, along with thousands of videos and images. The material includes emails, flight logs, photographs, investigative notes, and other records that reference numerous high profile figures.
The DOJ has stressed that mentions in the files often reflect social or professional connections and do not amount to evidence of criminal wrongdoing. Many of the individuals named have denied any involvement in Epstein’s crimes, and the department has confirmed that the records do not contain a formal client list.
Based on the frequency of references, media attention, and public interest, the following are the 10 most famous people to appear in the latest release.
