Emails released by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) have exposed vile conversations Jeffrey Epstein had with his friends about powerful and influential individuals abusing underage girls on his notorious private island.
In one disturbing message with American real estate titan Andrew Farkas, Epstein discusses rumours about the late Professor Stephen Hawking allegedly abusing children during a stay at his “Pedophile Island” in the Caribbean, Little Saint James.
The newly released DOJ documents are raising disturbing questions about Epstein’s inner circle as they appear to talk flippantly about underage girls being raped on Epstein’s private island.
In a 2015 email to Farkas, Epstein wrote:
“I kid you not , the local papers are suggesting that steven hawking had sex with underage girls on island. !! [sic]”
In the email thread, which was dates years after Epstein conviction for child sex crimes, Farkas responded with a grotesque remark, saying:
“If it were true you’d received the Nobel Prize for medical science.”
The exchange is part of nearly 2,000 emails between Epstein and Farkas that were made public by the DOJ as part of its latest release under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
Hawking’s Island Visit Under Renewed Scrutiny
The release comes as scrutiny intensifies over Hawking’s documented ties to Epstein.
Among the materials published by the DOJ is a photograph showing Hawking seated in his wheelchair between two bikini-clad female victims holding tropical drinks.
The image, which shows the late Cambridge theoretical physicist smiling, was reportedly taken on Little Saint James, Epstein’s infamous private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Per the terms of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, only victims can be redacted from the images.
Hawking was one of 21 internationally known scientists who attended a 2006 conference funded and hosted by Epstein on his island and in nearby St. Thomas.
Epstein purchased Little Saint James in 1998 for $7.95 million.
The island later became synonymous with the financier’s sex trafficking operation.
It was known locally as “Pedophile Island” due to the number of underage girls who were seen traveling in and out of the secluded location.
Hawking is referenced at least 250 times in the newly released Epstein files, though many of the references are repetitive.
Hawking, who died in 2018, was never charged with any crimes related to Epstein.
Virginia Giuffre Allegation Referenced
The files also include a 2015 email from Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell discussing allegations made by the late Epstein victim and ex-Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre.
Epstein wrote that Maxwell could “issue a reward to any of Virginia’s friends, acquaints, family that come forward and help prove her allegations are false.”
He continued: “The strongest is the Clinton dinner, and the new version in the Virgin Islands that Stephen Hawking participated in an underage orgy.”
Hawking died at age 76 after living for more than 50 years with motor neuron disease.
Epstein’s Effort to Use Scientists for PR
Other emails reveal that Epstein was advised in 2018 to leverage his association with Hawking to rehabilitate his public image.
One redacted sender suggested releasing images of Hawking entering a submarine in the U.S. Virgin Islands and promoting a story about a “conference organizer and science philanthropist” who made Hawking’s wishes come true.
The conference, titled “The Energy of Empty Space That Isn’t Zero,” was held at the Ritz-Carlton in St. Thomas.
Attendees were invited to relax on the beach and visit Epstein’s “Pedophile Island” retreat.
Epstein frequently described himself as a “science philanthropist” and reportedly donated tens of millions of dollars to scientific causes.
After his 2019 arrest, many researchers publicly distanced themselves from him.
Unverified FBI Tip and Broader Allegations
According to the newly released documents, the FBI received an unsubstantiated tip alleging that Epstein visited an “all-male gay club” with Hawking in 2011.
The DOJ cautioned that the new documents “may include fake or falsely submitted images, documents, or videos,” as all public submissions were included in the production.
The Justice Department has now released more than three million documents related to Epstein, including over 180,000 images and 2,000 videos.
Officials say more than six million total documents have been identified, though not all will be made public.
Epstein died on August 10, 2019, in his jail cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.
Farkas, who made the Nobel Prize joke in the email exchange, later addressed his association with Epstein.
“He regrets their association and condemns Epstein’s crimes,” Farkas’ spokeswoman Julie Wood told The New York Times.
As new documents continue to surface, the expanding Epstein file releases are casting a long shadow over powerful elites in politics, science, and finance, and reigniting unanswered questions about who knew what, and when.
