Jeffrey Epstein’s Private Islands Are Now Up For Sale For $125 Million

The late financier and convicted sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s former private islands were just listed as for sale for $125 million. Epstein was developing massive properties on them before his 2019 arrest, and prosecutors claimed he brought some of his young female victims to these islands to assault them along with co-conspirators.

Little St. James and Great St. James in the U.S. Virgin Islands were bought by Epstein for $7.95 million and $17.5 million respectively in the 90s. The massive price markup accounts for developments Epstein added, which included a movie theater, library, pools and a Japanese bathhouse.

The two islands are being sold by the firm Bespoke Real Estate. They recently released a video advertising the “abundant possibilities” of the two islands. However, the ad’s idyllic slow-mo video and upbeat music are strange at best and chilling at worst knowing the context of what may have happened on those islands.

Epstein was arrested on July 6, 2019, on federal charges of sex trafficking, but he died by apparent suicide before an official conviction could take place. These islands are some of the last of his properties to be placed on sale. The proceeds are going to Epstein’s estate, which is still facing many lawsuits along with his still-living associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
