A federal judge has ordered the unsealing of 167 Jeffrey Epstein “John Does” (from Ghislaine Maxwell’s civil case).

There’s a lot of confusion (and bad info from the media) surrounding this issue – here is some necessary context on the John Does.

Thread.

We previously charted and categorized each John Doe, and previously summarized this material back in Feb. 2023.

The majority (around 100 of 167) have been identified.

Approximately 11 of the unidentified John Does are victims.

Here are examples:

Furthermore -

Lawyers for Maxwell and Giuffre (the victim) informed the Court that quite a few of the John Does were only mentioned in passing or in a benign context.

Or that “the sealed material as to this individual is not salacious.”

Examples:

But-

There are two alleged perpetrators who haven't been ID'd: John Does 58 and 94

John Doe 58 was previously ID'd as a witness and perpetrator.

We noted in Feb 23 that he allegedly had sex with a victim at Epstein's NY mansion

The new order says his ID will remain sealed.

John Doe 94 is an alleged victim, perpetrator, and Maxwell/Epstein affiliate

Said to have committed "serious wrongdoing"

The list of "victims" and "perpetrators" is small. Might be Sarah Kellen or someone still unidentified.

John Doe 94 will be unsealed

Finally- there are a handful of other John Does listed as witness or Epstein/Maxwell affiliates.

John Doe 113 for example, who engaged in "serious wrongdoing"

Their identities will also be unsealed.

As we said, we reported on much of this back in February 2023. Link in bio 😎
