Rodriguez said in court that the book was “insurance” against Epstein, who wanted him to “disappear.” Rodriguez died of mesothelioma shortly after serving his sentence. In 2011, Rodriguez was sentenced to 18 months in prison for having tried to sell the book to an undercover agent after failing to notify investigators about its existence. He claimed to have seen nude underage girls at Epstein’s pool, said that he would routinely wipe down and stow away sex toys in Epstein’s room after “massages,” and alleged that he saw child pornography on Epstein’s personal computer. He was intimately familiar with his boss’s sexual proclivities. Rodriguez was Epstein’s butler at his Palm Beach mansion for many years. There are celebrities, princes and princesses, high-profile scientists, artists from all over the world, all alongside some of the world’s most powerful oligarchs and political leaders-people like Prince Andrew (circled), Ehud Barak (circled), Donald Trump (circled). There are 1,571 names in all, with roughly 5,000 phone numbers and thousands of emails and home addresses. Rodriguez described the book, apparently assembled by Epstein’s employees, as the “Holy Grail.” It is annotated with cryptic marginalia-stars next to certain entries, arrows pointing toward others–and the names of at least 38 people are circled for reasons that aren’t totally clear. Totaling 97 pages and containing the names, numbers, and addresses of a considerable cross section of the global elite, Epstein’s personal contact book first turned up in a courtroom in 2009 after his former butler, Alfredo Rodriguez, tried to sell it to lawyers representing Epstein’s victims for $50,000. Jeffrey Epstein’s little black book is one of the most cursed documents ever compiled in this miserable, dying country. #JEFFREY EPSTEIN LITTLE BLACK BOOK FREE#Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.
