GRAINY “secret camera” footage allegedly recorded inside Jeffrey Epstein’s mansion shows shows a young woman kneeling beside the convicted paedophile at his desk.
The disturbing clips appear to show the disgraced financier in his home office in Palm Beach, Florida, with young women moving around him.
In one video, an unidentified woman is seen kneeling next to Epstein, who has his feet resting on the desk.
The footage, released as part of the latest tranche of Epstein files, shows a clear view of the paedo’s desk as people appear to sit on or around it.
The quality is poor and the identities of those filmed are unclear.
It is not known when the videos were recorded.
Cops raided Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion in 2005 and found a camera hidden inside a clock in his office, The New York Times reported.
Another device was discovered near the garage, according to reports.
Several of Epstein’s victims have long claimed they believed he had a vast network of hidden recording devices across his homes in Florida and New York, fuelling speculation he was compiling compromising material on powerful associates.
Epstein had claimed the hidden office camera was for security.
A Palm Beach detective said in a 2010 deposition that Epstein told him he set it up because he believed someone was stealing from him.
Emails from 2014 show Epstein instructed an employee to buy “three motion detected hidden cameras.”
The worker replied he was installing them inside Kleenex boxes.
Photos published in 2019 showed at least three surveillance cameras mounted in Epstein’s New York townhouse bedroom and adjoining rooms, with monitors displaying live feeds.
A sign on one door read “24 Hour Video Surveillance.”
But federal prosecutors in New York reportedly said in a memo last year they had not found surveillance cameras in Epstein’s bedroom or elsewhere beyond the entryway.
Epstein denied having hidden cameras. In a 2006 email sent to himself, he described reports of covert surveillance as “misleading”, claiming police were aware of the cameras and that they had an “innocent explanation”.
The latest videos emerged after the Department of Justice released millions of unsealed documents linked to Epstein last month.
The material – more than three million pages, 180,000 images and 2,000 videos – includes references to high-profile figures previously associated with Epstein, including Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and Microsoft founder Bill Gates.
Neither is accused of criminal wrongdoing in the files.
It comes as a senior lawmaker claimed the woman seen on the floor under former Prince Andrew at Jeffrey Epstein’s New York mansion has been identified as a sex-trafficking victim.
California congressman Ted Lieu made the allegation during a fiery congressional hearing as he pressed US Attorney General Pam Bondi over why the former royal has never been prosecuted.
Meanwhile, separate documents have reignited explosive allegations that Epstein may have worked as a foreign intelligence asset.
According to The Times, a confidential FBI informant became “convinced that Epstein was a co-opted Mossad agent” and alleged he had been “trained as a spy”.
An October 2020 FBI report reportedly cited Epstein’s links to US and allied intelligence circles through his long-time lawyer Alan Dershowitz.
Dershowitz dismissed the claims, saying: “No intelligence agency would really trust him. That’s not something he would keep from his lawyers.”
There is no clear evidence Epstein worked for Mossad or any other intelligence service.
US authorities have repeatedly said there is “no credible evidence” he blackmailed prominent individuals or maintained a “client list”.
Still, emails show Epstein ordered staff to install hidden, motion-activated cameras and include a cryptic message stating: “Remember what we spoke about if you want to put cameras in the house. It will have to be very discreetly done. The Russians may come in handy.”
There is no explanation in the documents of what role, if any, Russians allegedly played.
