"Newly released emails and travel itineraries appear to show that for years after Jeffrey Epstein served time for procuring underage girls for prostitution, he continued to attend exclusive dinners alongside Silicon Valley's most famous billionaires. The emails, part of a trove released by the Department of Justice on Friday, show that as late as 2018, Epstein was invited to or attended dinners alongside the likes of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin."
"Musk posted to X on Saturday that No one pushed harder than me to have the Epstein files released and I'm glad that has finally happened, adding: I had very little correspondence with Epstein and declined repeated invitations to go to his island or fly on his Lolita Express', but was well aware that some email correspondence with him could be misinterpreted and used by detractors to smear my name."
"Most of the events were staged by the Edge network, a creation of literary agent John Brockman, which offered a platform for public commentary by artists, technologists and intellectuals, along with sumptuous dinners [and] exclusive conferences for the rich, the smart, and the powerful. Brockman is a literary agent and self-described impresario and promoter of scientific ideas, who has represented authors including Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Jared Diamond, as previously reported in the Guardian."
The Department of Justice released emails and travel itineraries that show Jeffrey Epstein continued attending exclusive dinners with top Silicon Valley figures after serving time for procuring underage girls for prostitution. Records indicate invitations or attendance as late as 2018 alongside Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Evan Williams, Bill Gates, and Marissa Mayer. Elon Musk said he had little correspondence with Epstein, declined island visits and flights on Epstein's plane, and warned that some correspondence could be misinterpreted. Many events were organized by the Edge network, created by literary agent John Brockman, who promoted scientific ideas and high-profile conferences.
