英国亿万富翁詹姆斯·戈德史密斯爵士在1987年左右就向周围人士发出警告，称金融家杰弗瑞·爱泼斯坦是"性变态"，并涉嫌招募儿童参与非法活动1。这一早期警告比爱泼斯坦在2008年因佛罗里达性犯罪首次被指控要早二十多年1。
调查披露，爱泼斯坦与戈德史密斯家族有多年联系1。一名自称"简·多伊4号"的受害者声称，爱泼斯坦在1980年代访问希尔顿黑德岛期间对其施暴1。FBI在2019年7月10日，即逮捕爱泼斯坦四天后，收到了这名受害者的举报电话1。该受害者随后在FBI的四次采访中描述了爱泼斯坦的具体性虐待行为1。
司法部表示爱泼斯坦"伤害"了1000多人，包括遭到性虐待的未成年人1。爱泼斯坦价值5.77亿美元的遗产管理人目前正在接受美国联邦检察官的调查1。FBI已发布约350万份文件，但几乎没有来自1980年代的记录1。戈德史密斯于1997年去世，爱泼斯坦于2019年在监狱中去世1。
British billionaire Sir James Goldsmith raised alarms about financier Jeffrey Epstein around 1987, warning those around him that Epstein was a "sexual deviant" engaged in recruiting children for illegal activities—more than two decades before the FBI formally pursued the abuser.1 Goldsmith's family had maintained a long-standing connection with Epstein, and investigations revealed a potential sexual assault incident on Hilton Head Island that occurred during one of Epstein's visits in the 1980s.1
A victim identified as "Jane Doe 4" filed a complaint with the FBI on July 10, 2019, just four days after Epstein's arrest, detailing specific sexual abuse she endured at the hands of Epstein.1 During four separate FBI interviews, she described the assaults in detail.1 The Department of Justice has stated that Epstein harmed more than 1,000 individuals, including minors who were sexually abused.1 The FBI has released approximately 3.5 million documents in connection with the case, though records from the 1980s remain sparse.1
Goldsmith, who died in 1997, never lived to see the legal reckoning that came decades later.1 Epstein died in prison in 2019.1 The administrator of Epstein's $577 million estate is currently under investigation by federal prosecutors.1
