New Epstein Island Images Released by House Democrats Highlight Ongoing Transparency Push

Washington, D.C. – Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a collection of "never-before-seen" photos and videos from Jeffrey Epstein's private Caribbean island, Little St. James, on December 3, 2025. The release offers a visual glimpse into the secluded property, described by journalist Sam Stein as "creepy AF" in a social media post. These materials, obtained from law enforcement authorities in the U.S. Virgin Islands, were taken in 2020 following Epstein's death.The newly public images and videos showcase various areas of the estate, including bedrooms, a room featuring a dentist's chair with masks, and a chalkboard with words like "power" and "deception" written on it. Other visuals depict a "no trespassing" sign and a landline phone with redacted contacts. While the content does not introduce new criminal allegations, it provides a stark visual context to the ongoing investigations into Epstein's activities.This disclosure comes as Congress continues to press the Trump administration for the full release of all Epstein-related files, with a December 19 deadline looming. Ranking Member Robert Garcia stated, "These new images are a disturbing look into the world of Jeffrey Epstein and his island. We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and help piece together the full picture of Epstein’s horrific crimes." The move is seen as an effort to maintain public and political pressure for comprehensive transparency.Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019, owned Little St. James, an island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, for over two decades. The property was central to allegations of sex trafficking and abuse of underage girls. In 2022, the U.S. Virgin Islands attorney general secured a settlement exceeding $100 million from Epstein's estate related to these allegations.The House Oversight Committee Democrats also confirmed they have received records from financial institutions, including JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank, which they intend to release publicly after review. This ongoing effort underscores a broader commitment to uncovering the full scope of Epstein's network and delivering justice for survivors.
