A recurring character in the Epstein files: Snow White

  • The DOJ's latest Epstein release reveals a new email exchange about Snow White.
  • In June 2010, Jeffrey Epstein wanted someone to model in a costume of the Disney princess.
  • In July 2010, Snow White was also mentioned in emails between Epstein and banker Jes Staley.

Snow White has made another appearance in the Epstein files.

A June 2010 email contained in the latest tranche of documents released by the Justice Department shows the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein asking an unidentified person to get a costume of the beloved Disney character.

"i would love to take photos of you in a snow white costume," Epstein wrote. "you can get it from the costume store."

"Will get it!" the person responded.

The email — which was first reported by The Financial Times — isn't the only time that the guest of the Seven Dwarfs has been mentioned in the files.

A few weeks later, ex-Barclays CEO Jes Staley sent an email to Epstein, whom he had known for years, that said: "That was fun. Say hi to Snow White."

Epstein responded: "[W]hat character would you like next?" When Staley said "Beauty and the Beast," Epstein replied: "Well one side is available."

Also in July 2010, an unknown person emailed Epstein with the cryptic comment: "the snow white was f..ed twice as soon as she put her costume))".

It's not known if there is any connection between the various references to Snow White.

The Staley email exchange was initially released after the government of the Virgin Islands sued JPMorgan Chase, alleging it facilitated Epstein's sex-trafficking activities in the Caribbean, where he owned two islands.

The VI lawyers claimed in court papers that the Disney princess references were code for young women. Staley, who was a private banker at JPMorgan before he went to Barclays, testified in a different case that he did not remember the emails.

Epstein — who had dealings with the rich, famous, and powerful even after he pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008 — killed himself in a Manhattan prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sweeping sex-trafficking charges.

Scrutiny of Staley's ties to Epstein led to his departure from Barclays in 2021. Two years later, Britain's Financial Conduct Authority banned him from management positions in financial services.

Staley appealed, which resulted in him taking the stand, where he testified that his relationship with Epstein was largely professional. He also testified that he had sex with one of Epstein's staff members at the apartment of Epstein's brother. The ban was upheld.

Lawyers for Staley didn't immediately return a request for comment.
