After years of public outrage over Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking network, the Department of Justice has issued several stunning claims: there is no “client list,” no investigative files worth pursuing, no more files will be publicly produced, Epstein wasn’t murdered, and nothing relevant was found on Epstein’s seized computers other than downloaded child pornography.
The Gateway Pundit lasered in on a missing minute from the released jail cameras, however, showing that the Bondi DOJ has mishandled this release. Their excuse is that prison cameras always delete a minute from their footage.
Trump and Bondi want America to move on because there’s nothing to see here: Epstein killed himself, there’s no clients for child sex trafficking, and no ongoing blackmail operation, and nothing left to prosecute.
But a single name on Epstein’s flight logs: Tyler Grasham, calls that claim into serious question. And unlike the redacted pages and vanished leads surrounding Epstein himself, the Grasham case offers a viable avenue for investigation with ample probable cause, and a clear path to uncovering the wider Epstein client network the DOJ claims doesn’t exist.
Grasham, a prominent Hollywood talent agent who represented child actors, was accused in 2017 of sexually assaulting underage boys under his professional care. Several accusers described similar patterns: grooming, coercion, and exploitation within the entertainment and movie industry.
APA, the agency where Grasham worked, terminated his employment in October 2017.
But no charges were filed against him despite there being multiple accusers, and no federal inquiry followed. The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office reviewed four felony complaints ranging in age from accusers being 15 to in their 20s and decided not to prosecute. The DA ruled that two of the cases were barred by the statute of limitations, and the other two lacked sufficient evidence to support felony charges.
This was a powerful person with access to hundreds of potentially abused kids.
One of Grasham’s more prominent clients was Finn Wolfhard from the “Stranger Things” franchise, though there’s no allegation that he was abused by the talent agent. Grasham specialized in representing child actors.
Grasham died suddenly on October 21, 2022 at age 54. His cause of death was initially not publicly disclosed, but later it was said to have been cancer. But he appears on Epstein’s flight logs.
A Hollywood executive who knew Grasham exclusively tells the Gateway Pundit, “I worked near him and knew him and I’d see the young boys come in and out. I could see and smell the alcohol being constantly served in his office.”
“It was no secret Tyler liked the young boys and there was something going on. But it was just kind of a running joke. That was the first time I heard the name Jeffrey Epstein in passing and then I didn’t hear it again until many years later. Something weird was definitely going on, but Tyler died a few years back. It is my educated assumption that Tyler would promise the Hollywood dream to young and attractive, naive, boys and then, well, you know.”
“Looking back now it’s so funny how normalized these Hollywood types made this shit. ‘Oh that’s just Tyler.’ It’s crazy to think about.”
Epstein is said to have abused teen girls in public documents, but much less is reported or said about his reported abuse of teen boys, as well as underage children in general.
Notably, most of the female victims mentioned in most mainstream reporting on this topic features only a few outspoken victims: the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, Sarah Ransome, Maria Farmer, Annie Farmer, Jennifer Araoz, and Chauntae Davies. Most, however, were 16 when they started working with Epstein and his girlfriend, confidant, and procurer of people to abuse, Ghislaine Maxwell.
The Justice Department has estimated there are over 1,000 sexual victims of Epstein and Maxwell.
There are over 170 names on the Epstein flight logs. As well, there were 349 names on Epstein’s 1997 address book released in the 1990s.
There are an estimated 20,000 talent agents in the country.
Maxwell has been recently seeking a pardon from Trump despite her 2021 conviction and 20 year sentence for a single count of sex trafficking of a minor and three counts of conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking.
In the ongoing fight between Elon Musk and President Trump, Musk has repeatedly noted that Donald Trump shows up on the Epstein flight logs, and that Steve Bannon had been a friend and confidante of Epstein and is ‘in the files’, prepping Epstein for interviews after his 2008 conviction.
But the names that are already known and public, in addition to the estimated 153 others who filed “John Does” to protect their identities, represent powerful people across government, finance, and international politics, who could fight any attempt to prosecute them.
And that resistance to even being named might explain part of the reason why the DOJ is acting this way: the individuals involved face a lifetime of potential prosecution for these crimes, as statute of limitation laws on child abuse have largely been changed in recent years to not expire.
Even though some of the alleged victims were as young as 14, though, the distinction about the age of those identified in the media as victims, who were typically 16 or over when the abuse started, is an important one.
That cutoff is an important legal distinction because, under Virgin Islands law for example, which sets the age of consent to sex at 18 years old, the law distinguishes rape in the ‘second’ from the ‘third’ degree. Rape in the third degree allows for judicial discretion as to sentencing, whereas rape in the second degree, involving victims under the age of 16, has a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison.
The media ignores the potential victims who, if named, could cause a prosecution resulting in mandatory imprisonment for those accused, if convicted.
There are multiple locations for the Epstein abuse network, jurisdictions that could prosecute the crimes committed against the victims.
Abuse is reported to have occurred in:
- Palm Beach, Florida, part of Palm Beach County.
- Manhattan, New York, part of New York County
- Little St. James, U.S. Virgin Islands
- Zorro Ranch, outside Stanley, New Mexico, part of Santa Fe County
- Paris, France
- Wexner Property, in New Albany, Ohio, northeast of Columbus, part of Franklin County
The federal U.S. Attorney in these jurisdictions, as well as the local prosecutors, have overlapping jurisdictions to prosecute these offenses.
Every single state prosecutor mentioned above still has the ability to criminally prosecute these claims.
Every federal U.S. Attorney has the ability to criminally prosecute these claims. The head of the DOJ Criminal Division is Matthew R. Galeotti.
Epstein was prosecuted three times: by Palm Beach County in 2005, the Florida U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta in 2007, and by the Southern District of New York in 2019. Each time, Epstein received extremely lenient treatment by prosecutors.
The DOJ’s argument that there’s nothing left to prosecute is simply false. Under established federal law, there is more than sufficient probable cause to reopen a criminal investigation into people like Grasham even though dead, not just for the historical abuse allegations, but to investigate potential federal crimes including:
- Transportation of minors across state lines for unlawful sexual activity (18 U.S.C. § 2423),
- Sex trafficking of minors (18 U.S.C. § 1591),
- Conspiracy to commit sex trafficking (18 U.S.C. § 371),
- Criminal enterprise or racketeering charges (18 U.S.C. § 1962, RICO), and
- Obstruction of justice (if industry or government figures concealed evidence).
Since Pam Bondi has now disclosed that Epstein had enormous amounts of child pornography on his electronic devices, it would stand to reason that past accused serial abusers were involved in the procurement of these kids, and the abuse of these kids.
Bondi’s disclosures means that another angle for a criminal investigation would be to investigate whether the Production or distribution of child pornography (18 U.S.C. § 2251), are potential crimes by Epstein and Grasham.
Even though a dead man can’t be sent to prison, the investigation could help accomplish these important purposes:
- Uncover co-conspirators who are still alive and prosecutable.
- Track the flow of money, communications, or travel that may tie into ongoing criminal enterprises (e.g., sex trafficking, child exploitation, obstruction of justice).
- Corroborate victim testimony to build cases against others.
- Re-examine closed or ignored leads (like Epstein’s flight logs) in light of new witness accounts or evidence.
The public record already includes multiple first-hand accounts of child abuse tied to Grasham’s Hollywood role. That alone would justify a grand jury subpoena of his digital files, emails, agency records, and estate-held devices, especially given his link to Epstein’s private air travel.
Investigators could further obtain:
- APA employment files and any NDAs or hush money settlements,
- Phone and email communications to and from Epstein or Epstein’s known intermediaries,
- Flight manifests and hotel records, cross-referenced with minors under Grasham’s care,
- Civil lawsuit records and sealed complaints from victims or their families.
If any communications suggest coordination, movement of minors, or financial transactions connected to travel or exploitation, then a criminal conspiracy charge is viable. And under federal rules of evidence, that opens the door to investigating co-conspirators, including anyone else on the same Epstein flights.
Anyone who facilitated the abuse of children in an organized fashion, who assisted or aided in this effort, is potentially liable for conspiracy charges related to the abuse.
That’s the route the DOJ doesn’t want to take.
Instead of following the leads, subpoenaing the logs, or using standard prosecutorial tools like search warrants, wiretap data requests, and compelled testimony, federal prosecutors have signaled they’d rather look away.
But this isn’t a matter of public curiosity, it’s a matter of unfinished justice. If the DOJ won’t touch Epstein, it can no longer ignore Grasham. His record is in Hollywood. His victims are still alive. His emails still exist. And his seat on Epstein’s plane is not a coincidence.
The law provides every tool necessary for prosecutors to get to the bottom of this. That they remain unused is not a failure of evidence, but of will.
If the Justice Department wants to pretend there’s no client list, they should first explain why it’s not investigating the known child abusers on the flight logs and a documented Epstein passenger.
A variety of influencers have come out asking for Bondi’s firing, including Glenn Beck, expressing various amounts of anger at Bondi as a MAGA elite who is shielding the pedophile rings operated by the deep state.
