Elon Musk’s 2012-2013 Correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein Revealed in Newly Released Documents
Newly unsealed court documents reveal email exchanges between Elon Musk and Jeffrey Epstein from 2012 to 2013, showing discussions about potential visits to Epstein's private island and SpaceX facilities. The correspondence includes Musk expressing interest in Epstein's "wildest party" while planning holiday travel to St. Barts with then-partner Talulah Riley.
The documents, part of over three million pages released by the Justice Department, also indicate Epstein sought business with SolarCity, a Musk-backed solar company later acquired by Tesla. Musk has previously denied visiting Epstein's island, claiming he refused invitations from the convicted sex offender.
Among other notable figures mentioned in the Epstein files are Bill Gates and former First Lady Melania Trump. The release comes amid ongoing scrutiny of Epstein's network following his 2019 death in prison while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
