On Wednesday, Judge Loretta Preska authorized the disclosure of the first set of names from Jeffrey Epstein’s expansive client list, which includes more than 150 individuals.
The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, was listed in the newly unsealed court documents.
Jackson’s name was brought up when an attorney asked a witness in the Giuffre v. Maxwell case, “You said you met Michael Jackson?”
The witness responded yes, but made it clear she never massaged Jackson.
Take a look:
Per The Guardian:
One document included a deposition given by Johanna Sjoberg, whom Maxwell allegedly procured for the purpose of performing sex acts on Epstein.
Sjoberg said in her deposition that Epstein “said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls”.
In 2019, Clinton’s spokesperson Angel Ureña denied claims made about Clinton’s involvement with Epstein and wrote in a statement on Twitter that “President Clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has been recently charged in New York.”
Clinton notably had an 18-month long affair with Monica Lewinsky, his then 22-year-old intern, during his first term as president. He was 49 years old.
Sjoberg also said that the late musician Michael Jackson was at Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion, as well as the famed magician David Copperfield.
“Did you ever meet anybody famous when you were with Jeffrey? she was asked. “I met Michael Jackson … at [Epstein’s] house in Palm Beach.”
Asked whether she massaged Jackson, Sjoberg said: “I did not.”
As for Copperfield, Sjoberg said that he attended dinner at one of Epstein’s homes and “he did some magic tricks”.
