Actor Kevin Spacey is demanding transparency in the case that has haunted the lives of many high-profile figures: the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
On Tuesday, Spacey took to social media, urging authorities to release all the information connected to Epstein’s notorious sex trafficking ring.
Spacey, a friend of Bill Clinton and Britain’s Prince Andrew, has long been linked to Epstein and his sex trafficking accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
It comes as the Trump administration continues to face intense criticism for its handling of the case.
The FBI and Department of Justice have been accused of closing their inquiry into Epstein without releasing critical documents, further fueling the desire for truth.
“Release the Epstein files. All of them,” Spacey posted on X.
“For those of us with nothing to fear, the truth can’t come soon enough.”
His call for transparency comes amid ongoing media scrutiny, which, Spacey notes, has focused on him despite his efforts to remain out of the limelight regarding the case.
Spacey’s involvement in the Epstein saga has been the subject of increasing public interest since 2021, when Epstein’s former pilot, Lawrence Paul Visoski Jr., testified at Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex trafficking trial.
Visoski named the actor as one of the individuals who had flown on Epstein’s private plane.
Spacey was also included in documents unsealed in 2024 related to Virginia Giuffre’s lawsuit against Maxwell.
Other prominent names mentioned included Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Jackson, and Cameron Diaz, none of whom were implicated in the scandal.
Despite the lack of direct accusations, Spacey’s connection to the Epstein case has only deepened with time.
A notorious photo surfaced in 2020 showing Spacey and Maxwell sitting side by side in the late Queen Elizabeth II’s Throne Room of Buckingham Palace in 2002.
The image further fueled suspicions about their ties to the disgraced financier.
The photograph, taken during a visit arranged by Prince Andrew, highlighted the close circle of individuals who frequented Epstein’s world.
In 2021, Giuffre filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew, accusing him of being one of the men who sexually exploited her when she was trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell.
Prince Andrew settled the case in 2022.
In a June 2024 interview on “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Spacey addressed the controversy surrounding his ties to Epstein.
Recalling a 2002 humanitarian trip to Africa with Bill Clinton, Spacey revealed that he had unknowingly flown on one of Epstein’s planes.
“I didn’t know him. I’ve never spent any time with him,” Spacey explained, distancing himself from Epstein.
However, he continued by acknowledging the presence of “young girls” on the flights with Clinton and Epstein.
“I didn’t want to be around this guy,” he said, claiming he was concerned for Clinton’s safety given the circumstances surrounding the trip.
Spacey continued to assert his innocence, claiming that he was unaware of Epstein’s background until after the trip.
He stressed that his focus was on the humanitarian mission, not on Epstein or Maxwell.
Spacey insisted that he had never visited Epstein’s infamous “Pedophile Island.”
“There’s a big difference between not remembering meeting someone and not remembering whether I went to somebody’s island,” he stated.
The actor also addressed the allegations that had plagued him since 2017, including accusations of sexual misconduct from actor Anthony Rapp, who claimed Spacey made an advance toward him in 1986 when Rapp was just 14 years old.
Spacey denied all allegations, and in 2022, a federal jury cleared him of liability in a civil lawsuit brought by Rapp.
In 2023, Spacey was acquitted of nine charges of sexual assault after a trial in the U.K.
Despite his legal victories, Spacey’s name remains tied to Epstein and Maxwell.
His call for the release of the Epstein files reflects the growing frustration among many who demand justice and transparency in a case that continues to unravel the lives of those connected to the powerful financier.
As Spacey makes calls for “the truth,” the public remains divided on the role these high-profile individuals played in Epstein’s criminal empire.
The release of the full Epstein files could prove to be a pivotal moment in the ongoing battle for accountability and transparency.
