Sounds like someone could pay a secretary to update and maintain such a thing.
Jean, can you get the numbers for the Fisher account into my contacts list, print it out over the weekend?
I'd do it myself but I....have to return some video tapes.
Thanks Jean.
Hey, by the way, great jacket.
;-)
You want to pay a secretary to update your child abuse/rape victims and their abusers/rapists? This was probably never let out of his sight.
My guess would be that Ghislaine was the literal 'secretary' who put it together and got it printed.
... given that this document comes from, you know, her trial, lol.
A redacted version was originally publically released as part of the case ... but later, someone, probably someone connected to the proceedings of the case, leaked the unredacted version, the entire scan of the whole book.
Also WTF, another one of Epstein's actual, literal contact books was/is apparently recently up for auction?!

Goddamnit this thing is like a fucking black market archaeological artefact.
She found it? Crazy.
It also had a lot more names?
And here is a searchable database of all of the names with photos:

So as best I can tell this is a different... uh, edition, so to speak, of Epstein's contact book.
But yeah, thats the whole problem, how do you actually, certainly prove its genuine?
Could be a well done fake.
Hence my black market artefact analogy.
...
Like uh, the Nag Hammadi library... that was apparently found in the 1940s/50s by some kids cave spelunking, bounced around the ME archaeology black market for decades, at one point got bought by some wealthy dude, stayed in a safety deposit box in NYC or something for a decade...
... and then actually got handed off to a real university or museum team, who promptly shit their pants, suspecting it to be genuine, then properly reassembled it from being mostly disintegrated, testesd the material and writing and language style and confirmed it is actually genuine... and then preserved in a proper vessel/environment...
And that is how we know about something like 1/3 of the contents of early / heretical / 'gnostic' Christian writings and beliefs.
... Shit like that is why Indiana Jones says 'It belongs in a museum!'
In addition to the printimg, It's full of handwritten parts, like the circling.
It's not that it couldn't be maintained, I just can't see why anyone would want to.
