In 2021, Business Insider obtained a Jeffrey Epstein address book no one had ever seen before. This 1997 book predates Epstein's original "little black book" by at least seven years. The original book dates to 2004 and was published in 2015.
While the Trump administration says it won't disclose more files on Epstein, this older address book reminds us of Epstein's vast connections to prominent figures, including Melania Trump's best friend, Christopher Cuomo's wife, and an advisor in the first Trump administration.
Business Insider took extensive steps to verify the authenticity of the book, including hiring a forensic document examiner to determine whether it had been recently forged or altered.
