The book details Epstein's early network, including connections to individuals like Leslie Wexner.
The presence of Trump's contact information has led to renewed discussion regarding his relationship with Epstein, despite Trump's prior statements that he never visited Epstein's private island.
The book reportedly mentions properties associated with Wexner and other locations, including homes in West Palm Beach, New York, and Zorro Ranch in New Mexico.
Several locations near the Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan, an institution Epstein financially supported, are also referenced.
Documented Interactions and Communications
Evidence has surfaced indicating past interactions and communications between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, alongside details concerning the handling of Epstein's estate and related documents.
In 2003, Trump is reported to have contributed a letter to a bound album for Epstein's 50th birthday. The Wall Street Journal described this letter as containing "suggestive content," a claim Trump has denied.
By October 2007, Trump had revoked Epstein's membership at his Mar-a-Lago property.
In November 2025, the House Oversight Committee released emails pertinent to Trump. One email from 2011, exchanged between Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, allegedly refers to Trump as "the dog that hasn't barked" because he had "spent hours at my house" with a victim.
Following this, committee Republicans released approximately 20,000 additional pages from Epstein's estate. These documents mention Trump over a thousand times, though it is noted that no emails were sent directly to Trump or his staff.
An entry from an unidentified woman, reportedly in a birthday book, stated that thanks to Epstein, she had met Prince [presumably Prince Andrew], Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump. Trump's representatives have stated they deny he produced anything for the book, and that the signature did not match his.
Scrutiny of Elite Associations

Ivana Trump, Melania Trump, and Ivanka Trump have also been identified as being in the book.
Ron Burkle, Chelsea Clinton, Henry Kissinger, John Kerry, Adnan Khashoggi, and Woody Allen are also named in articles discussing the contents.
Bill Clinton's spokesman stated he had not spoken with Epstein in "well over a decade" and had no knowledge of Epstein's alleged crimes.
The content of the book is being examined for its role in understanding Epstein's operations and the relationships he cultivated.

The Department of Justice had promised to release documents related to the Epstein investigation.
In February–May 2025, initial releases and FBI reviews were conducted.
In July–November 2025, the DOJ memo and administration response were issued. The administration's stance drew criticism.
Matthew Menchel, chief criminal prosecutor in the Miami U.S. Attorney's office involved in Epstein's 2007 plea deal, reportedly had meetings with Epstein in 2011, 2013, and 2017.
The House Oversight Committee issued legal summonses for the executors of Epstein's estate to produce documents, including a birthday book containing a note purportedly from Trump.
The release of these files has led to further investigations and has had significant legal and social ramifications.
