Also named in the first batch of documents are Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew, and US magician David Copperfield

Forty court documents containing information on associates of late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein – including former US presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton – have been made public.

More than 150 associates of the disgraced paedophile are expected to be unmasked in the trove of documents, which are being unredacted as part of an 18 December court order.

US judge Loretta Preska ordered that the court filings in a lawsuit brought against Ghislaine Maxwell by Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre must finally be unsealed and the names of up to 200 “John and Jane Does” unredacted.

    Thinking celebrities’ opinions immediately carry more weight than other’s is not the same as believing celebrities should not voice their opinions at all.

      But it does carry more weight. If a celibrity voices an opinion it’s almost guaranteed to become public.

      That doesn’t make it more valid though, it can still be bullshit. And that’s why people may conclude it best, if performers focus on their area of expertise. I don’t think less of people coming to that conclusion.
