The Department of Justice released heavily redacted documents that include investigative notes detailing Epstein's demands and procurement practices. One document, EFTA00004179, contains an FBI evidence cover sheet and 13 pages of handwritten interview notes dated 2 May 2019. The interview subject and portions of content are redacted. Themes in the notes include recruitment of girls, sexual encounters presented as massages, and Epstein's explicit preferences about age, race, and appearance. The notes describe attempts to procure underage girls, payment to girls, requests for identification to confirm age, and a reported rejection of a dark-skinned Dominican. The release drew criticism for being partial and heavily redacted, and the notes reference photos and sexual activity near a bathtub and shower while using initials JE for Epstein and redacting the procurer's identity.
