Paedophile financier, Jeffrey Epstein secretly recorded sex tapes of Prince Andrew, Richard Branson, and Bill Clinton, the latest unsealed documents have claimed.  

Sarah Ransome, who gave a victim impact statement ahead of the sentencing of British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell for sex trafficking, appeared to write communications claiming the three were filmed by the paedophile financier.

The extracts were flagged by a firm representing Epstein’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, to demonstrate Ms. Ransome ‘manifestly lacks credibility’.

Andrew stepped down from public life after the furore over his friendship with Epstein, and paid millions to settle a civil sexual assault case with Virginia Giuffre, a woman he claimed never to have met. 

He was cast out of the working monarchy and no longer uses his HRH status after Ms Giuffre, who was trafficked by Epstein, accused him of sexually assaulting her when she was 17. The duke strenuously denies any wrongdoing.

A US judge ordered hundreds of documents to be unsealed as part of Ms Giuffre’s previously settled civil claim against Maxwell, which was filed in 2015.

In the document released as part of another tranche published on Monday, Ms Ransome wrote: ‘When my friend had sexual intercourse with Clinton, Prince Andrew and Richard Branson, sex tapes were in fact filmed on each separate occasion by Jeffrey.

‘Thank God she managed to get a hold of some footage of the filmed sex tapes, which clearly identify the faces of Clinton, Prince Andrew, and Branson having sexual intercourse with her.

‘Frustratingly enough Epstein was not seen in any of the footage but he was clever like that!

‘When my friend eventually had the courage to speak out and went to the police in 2008 to report what had happened, nothing was done and she was utterly humiliated by the police department where she went to report what had happened with Epstein, Clinton, Branson and Prince Andrew.’

According to Mail Online, the new revelations about the Epstein scandal include: 

• Haunting images show scantily-clad girls and women on Epstein’s ‘pedo island’ 
• Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyer claimed Prince Andrew could not have had sex with Virginia Giuffre in a bathtub because it was too small for a man his size
• Sir Richard Branson hit back at ‘baseless and unfounded’ email claims he was secretly filmed by Epstein 

In the letter from Emery Celli Brinckerhoff & Abady LLP to the court, the firm said allegations against Mr Dershowitz were categorically false.

The firm said: ‘Her (Ms Ransome) testimony was fabricated from whole cloth. Ms Ransome’s testimony also contains a slew of other incendiary claims concerning the sexual proclivities of Donald Trump, Bill Clinton and other prominent individuals.

‘The emails are a necessary antidote to Ms Ransome’s deposition misstatements because they demonstrate she manifestly lacks credibility.’

On behalf of Mr Branson, a Virgin Group spokeswoman said: ‘In a New Yorker report published in 2019, Ransome admitted that she had ‘invented’ the tapes.

‘We can confirm that Sarah Ransome’s claims are baseless and unfounded.’
