- Emails reveal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace for dinner and "lots of privacy" years after Epstein's conviction for sex crimes.
- Messages show Elon Musk discussed visiting Epstein's island and asked about parties, though Musk denies ever visiting and any wrongdoing.
- Epstein made unsubstantiated allegations in an email about Bill Gates engaging in extramarital affairs, which a spokesperson for Gates vehemently denied as "absurd" and "completely false".
