Jeffrey Epstein took sex tapes of Bill Clinton and Sir Richard Branson, court documents claim

Sex tapes were allegedly taken of Bill Clinton and Sir Richard Branson, an alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein claims in court documents.

Last week, a list of Epstein's associates was made public and social media has been put into a frenzy.

While many have vilified the famous individuals mentioned on the list, others have used it as an opportunity to muddy the waters.

The documents formed part of a 2015 defamation lawsuit brought against Ghislaine Maxwell, a known associate of convicted sex offender Epstein, by one of his accusers, Virginia Giuffre.

At the time, the names were kept secret under a court-ordered seal - with the names 'John Doe' or 'Jane Doe' used to refer to those involved.

Maxwell is now serving a 20-year prison sentence for the crimes she'd committed with Epstein, who died in 2019, and New York Judge Loretta Preska ruled that the names could be made public.

But now, the recently revealed documents are claiming Epstein took sex tapes of Bill Clinton and Sir Richard Branson.

Sarah Ransome, who gave a victim impact statement ahead of the sentencing of British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell for sex-trafficking, appeared to write communications claiming the three were filmed by the paedophile financier.

On behalf of Mr Branson, a Virgin Group spokeswoman said: “In a New Yorker report published in 2019, Ransome admitted that she had ‘invented’ the tapes.

“We can confirm that Sarah Ransome’s claims are baseless and unfounded.”

Indeed, the New Yorker's Connie Bruck says Ransome told her she invented the tapes to trick Epstein into thinking she had 'evidence that would come out if he harmed me'.

The extracts were flagged by a firm representing Epstein’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, to demonstrate Ms Ransome 'manifestly lacks credibility'.

Addressing the claims about the Virgin boss, in the document released as part of another tranche published on Monday, Ms Ransome wrote: “When my friend had sexual intercourse with Clinton, Prince Andrew and Richard Branson, sex tapes were in fact filmed on each separate occasion by Jeffrey.

“Thank God she managed to get a hold of some footage of the filmed sex tapes, which clearly identify the faces of Clinton, Prince Andrew and Branson having sexual intercourse with her.

“Frustratingly enough Epstein was not seen in any of the footage but he was clever like that!

“When my friend eventually had the courage to speak out and went to the police in 2008 to report what had happened, nothing was done and she was utterly humiliated by the police department where she went to report what had happened with Epstein, Clinton, Branson and Prince Andrew.”
