Jeffrey Epstein confessed to being a father to a child borne by one of his victims, files released by the United States Department of Justice suggest.

Documents reviewed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) include claims from a woman who told investigators that Epstein sexually assaulted her for several years beginning when she was 16.

According to the FBI notes, dated January 2020, the woman said Epstein showed her a photograph inside his residence in New York City and identified the woman in the image as the mother of his child.

The documents state: “In another suite of his residence, there was a picture of a blonde woman on the beach.

“Epstein told [redacted] that this was the mother of his child.”

The woman told the investigators that she met Epstein in 2005 while working as a teenage model. The notes further record that Epstein later showed her a sculpture of the same woman.

“There was a torso sculpture, like a mold – EPSTEIN said this mold was of this woman,” the notes read.

“EPSTEIN told [redacted] that this woman was perfect. EPSTEIN told [redacted] that her husband will be very lucky.”

Claims that Epstein fathered children have surfaced in reports a few times. Earlier this week, an international media outlet reported that another alleged victim said she gave birth to a baby girl around 2002 when she was 16 or 17.

The document said that the woman alleged the child was taken from her minutes after birth and that Ghislaine Maxwell was present during the birth. 

“She was born, I heard her cries!” the woman wrote. “I saw this tiny head and body in between the doctor’s hands. Ghislaine said she was beautiful. Where is she?”


The woman added: “I do not want to be tied to Jeffrey for the rest of my life! Playing the piano well is not a good reason to think someone has good genes or should have a baby! I am too young and he is too old!

“The piano and music comments are made to convince me this is right and will create perfect offspring he [Epstein] calls them ‘superior gene pool?’ Why me?? My eye color, my eye color? I miss the person I was before I was made into what feels like a human incubator.”

According to Daily Mail, several accounts have also described Epstein asking women to carry his child. One of the documents released by the FBI includes an image showing Epstein holding a woman in his New York home while she carried a baby.

Epstein’s brother has previously stated that the financier did not have a child.
