The White House has detailed the name of the alleged Jeffrey Epstein victim who is said to have ‘spent hours’ with Donald Trump.

Since Trump returned to the Oval Office in January, talk of the unreleased Epstein files has been rife considering the president was previously friends with the convicted pedophile.

Epstein was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, New York City in August 2019. The financier had been arrested earlier on in that year and died aged 66 while awaiting trial for charges related to sex trafficking – charges to which he pleaded not guilty.

Trump has long maintained he was not aware of Epstein’s crimes.

On Wednesday (November 12), documents were released by the Oversight Committee as part of its investigation into Epstein and convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell. They released three separate emails in which Epstein mentioned Trump, with one claiming an individual known as ‘Victim 1’ ‘spent many hours’ with Trump.

While the name was withheld, the White House has claimed the alleged victim is Virginia Giuffre, who said before her death she didn’t witness any wrongdoing from the president during her interactions with him.

In a statement provided to UNILAD, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said: “The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump.

“The ‘unnamed victim’ referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions.”

The statement continued: “These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”

In the released email from April 2011, Epstein reportedly told Maxwell: “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump,” adding that an unnamed victim ‘spent hours at my house with him, he has never once been mentioned’, as per the New York Times.

Maxwell responded: “I have been thinking about that.”

Giuffre, an alleged Epstein victim, died by suicide at her home in Australia in April this year at the age of 41. She wrote Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice before her death.

Giuffre alleged that she was trafficked by Epstein at the age of 17, while also claiming she was made to have sex with Prince Andrew – something the former royal has continually denied.
