Among the hundreds of gigabytes of material released by the Justice Department as part of the Epstein files are more than 2,000 videos, featuring hours of footage that had never before been made public. The most revealing material comes from Data Set 10, part of the huge tranche of documents released on January 30.

The videos include footage that Jeffrey Epstein recorded himself, received from others, or downloaded from the internet. Reporters at The Free Press have watched all of these clips and created a compilation video to make the contents of the files more accessible. Reporter Tanya Lukyanova introduced the project in a video.

Among the videos are many showing young women dancing, sitting, or lying in bed. Sometimes the subjects appear undressed or in lewd positions, with their faces and bodies obscured by black boxes. However, there are occasional clips where a face is visible.

Some of the clips Epstein recorded appear to be explicit videos of himself, and much of what he downloaded is pornographic. These clips were largely redacted by the Justice Department, with only their watermarks visible.

One video features drone footage of Epstein’s private island, while another shows his U.S. passport, which bears a message identifying him as a convicted sex offender. There is also a lengthy interview that Steve Bannon filmed with Epstein for a proposed documentary, which Epstein apparently hoped would help rehabilitate his image.

The Free Press published all 14 hours of the video footage found in the data set, excluding only obvious duplicates, audio-only files, and fully redacted videos that contain neither sound nor image.

CBS News and The Free Press are both owned by Paramount, a Skydance corporation. The Justice Department has released millions of documents related to Epstein over the past few months after the Epstein Files Transparency Act required the production of all files on the late sex offender, who died in jail in 2019.
