EXCLUSIVE: The Jeffrey Epstein Files: ...

[IceWizard]

Around the same time, Epstein's assistant sent him a reminder: 'Jes Staley would like to
have dinner with you and his family'.

But the most disturbing calendar entries feature mention of Epstein making sure that 'wine'
was available for Staley during his visits – in what appears to be a possible codeword for something else.

On May 29, 2012 Epstein's scheduler Lesley Groff said that Staley was coming at 6.30pm and wrote:
'Reminder to have a bottle of the wine for Jes chilled and ready to go!'

She added that one of Epstein's housekeepers had to 'confirm back re this'

On January 7, 2014 Susan Hamblin, another of Epstein's assistants, emailed him with the subject:
'Snacks for Today'.

She wrote: 'Do you have any specific requests for your appointments with Rothschild which Jes may
be joining. We will have jes' wine on hand'.

On September 9, 2014, the diary noted a 7.30pm appointment with Staley. It read:
'HAVE JES'S WHITE WINE AVAILABLE'.

On November 20 that year next to a 5.30pm appointment, the schedule said: 'Jes Staley
(MAKE SURE WE HAVE WHITE WINE).'

References to 'wine' have featured in other emails between the two men which have been released
in a court case involving JP Morgan and the USVI government.

On November 1, 2009, while Epstein was still in prison for having sex with underage girls,
Staley emailed him while staying on his Caribbean island.

He wrote: 'So when all hell breaks lo[o]se, and the world is crumbling, I will come here, and be at peace.

'Presently, I'm in the hot tub with a glass of white wine. This is an amazing place. Truly amazing.
Next time, we're here together. I owe you much. And I deeply appreciate our friendship.
I have few so profound.'

On December 4, 2009, Staley told Epstein via email: 'I realize the danger in sending this email.
But it was great to be able, today, to give you, in New York City, a long heartfelt, hug'.

The next day, Epstein wrote to Staley: 'You were with Larry, and I had to put up with . . .' and
attached a picture of a young woman, which is redacted in the court document.

Staley responded: 'Don't tell me, a French wine.'

Epstein replied: 'Always thoughts of alcohol.'

In other previously released Epstein and Staley talked about Disney princesses including
one message sent in July 2010.

Staley told Epstein: 'Maybe they're tracking u? That was fun. Say hi to Snow White'.

Epstein responded: '(W)hat character would you like next?'

When Staley said 'Beauty and the Beast', Epstein replied: 'Well one side is available'.

A lawyer for Staley did not respond to messages for comment – she has previously
denied any wrongdoing.

On September 20th 2013, Epstein's schedule lists a 'TBD dinner' with Bill Gates,
Thorbjorn Jagland, the former Norwegian politician, and Norwegian diplomat
Terje Rød Larsen. The note says that 'Richard Branson may join the dinner'




Wendi Murdoch did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment. 

On September 20th 2013, Epstein's schedule lists a 'TBD dinner' with Bill Gates, and the
Norwegians Thorbjorn Jagland and Terje Rød Larsen.

The note says that 'Richard Branson may join the dinner'.

A source close to the Virgin founder was in the UK that night where he hosted the Stars of the Year
event for his company, followed by a party for his train company, Virgin Trains.

A spokeswoman for Branson was not able to comment on whether he ever met Epstein.


Peter Thiel


Tech billionaire and early Facebook investor Peter Thiel had several meetings with Epstein,
the calendars show.

During one stretch in 2014 Thiel appears to have met Epstein three times in quick succession
at a time when he was on the board of Facebook and in charge of venture capital firm Founders Fund.

He was also the chairman of analytics company Palantir, which works closely with the
Department of Defense.

The logs show that in September 2014, Epstein's schedule listed Thiel under 'people to see'.

The two men met for dinner at Epstein's New York mansion on the 12th with Woody Allen
present, the schedule says.

The following day Epstein met Thiel on his own from 2pm to 4pm after which Bill Burns,
the current director of the CIA who was deputy secretary of state at the time,
joined them for an hour.

The day after that, Epstein planned a lunch and said that 'maybe Peter Thiel' would come.

The two men were scheduled for lunch the following week and the entry lists Thiel's
personal assistant and their number.

Thiel did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment. 



The calendars show tech billionaire Peter Thiel had several meetings with Epstein



Another tech investor who appears in the calendars is Sean Parker, the Napster founder,
who was set for a meeting with Epstein in September 2011.

A source close to Parker said that the meeting 'never happened' although it was scheduled to take place.

Norway's Crown Princess Mette-Marit appears in the calendars in September 2013, with Epstein's
scheduler writing: 'Princess Mette to arrive today and stay until Thur Sep 26'.

A Norwegian palace spokesman for the princess, Guri Varpe, said she was in New York on official
business to attend a panel about AIDS with the head of Unilever, Paul Polman, and
Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Executive Director of UN Women.

She also attended the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative, Bill Clinton's philanthropic
endeavor which Epstein is said to have helped to start.

But Varpe denied that the princess stayed with Epstein as the calendars implied and said that
she actually stayed at the Sonder Chambers Hotel in Manhattan.

Princess Mette-Marit has previously admitted meeting Epstein several times with Varpe saying
one 'meeting' happened at Epstein's home.

In a previous statement the princess said she would 'never have had anything to do with Epstein
if I had been aware of the seriousness of his criminal acts'.

Tommy Mottola, the former chair of Sony Music and ex-husband of Mariah Carey,
is mentioned twice with reminders for Epstein to call him, once in June 2013 and
another time in January 2014







Tommy Mottola, the former chair of Sony Music, is mentioned twice with reminders for Epstein to call him,
once in June 2013 and another time in January 2014.

Through a spokeswoman Mottola confirmed he had spoken to Epstein.

He said: 'Mr. Epstein and I shared some mutual acquaintances, and he called me several times to request
concert tickets, as many people do'.

One email in the records shows a meeting with 'Dimon' scheduled for March 2nd 2010, an apparent
reference to JP Morgan chief executive Jamie Dimon.

In one email to senior staff at the bank, Epstein referred to 'Jamie', in another reference to Dimon.

A spokeswoman for JP Morgan denied that any meeting between Dimon and Epstein ever took place.

Others who appear in the calendars include Former Norwegian Prime Minister Kjell Magne Bondevik
who had an 8.30am breakfast with Epstein in October 2013.

According to the Wall Street Journal, which reported on material from the documents earlier this month,
among those who met Epstein was LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.

He was invited to a dinner with Epstein, and Leon Botstein, the president of Bard College invited
Epstein to the campus – where the pedophile reportedly brought some young girls with him.

Author Noam Chomsky was listed to fly with Epstein to have dinner at his New York townhouse in 2015.

Bill Burns, who has been CIA director since 2021, had three meetings scheduled with Epstein in 2014,
first in Washington and then in New York at his home.

The records are emails and calendar entries sent to Epstein and his circle by Lesley Groff, one of the
named but unindicted co-conspirators in Epstein's sweetheart plea deal from 2008.

A lawyer for Groff said in a statement that it was 'simply not her function to ask the reason for any
appointment and never suspected that Mr. Epstein was engaged in illegal conduct'.

Throughout the logs Epstein used the email account 'jeevacation@gmail.com' which he set up for use
during his 13 month prison sentence – showing his contempt for the law.
