Jeffrey Epstein Palm Beach house: Before and after photos of mansion, demolition
The six-bedroom, 7 1/2-bathroom lakefront mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, once owned by Epstein, is no more — the multimillion-dollar home was demolished after his death in 2019. The two-story home featured a living room and patio with views of the intracoastal waterway, an elevator, West Indies-style architecture, a cabana and a separate building used by household staff, according to reporting by the Palm Beach Daily News, a USA TODAY Network newspaper.
In 2021, the Palm Beach Daily News and the Palm Beach Post captured photos and video of the demolition of Epstein's home in Florida.
However, photos of the white house with a crystal blue pool and a waterfront view still show up on sites like homes.com and realtor.com. The site has been razed and the address changed. The real estate sites list property details that are public record.
Built in 1952 and sold for $18.5 million in 2021, the Epstein home was a key site where many of the crimes committed by the financier occurred, investigators said. Underage girls from Palm Beach County told investigators they were assaulted at the Palm Beach mansion as well as Epstein's homes in New York, New Mexico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
'House of horrors.' Whatever happened to Jeffrey Epstein's home in Palm Beach, Florida?
When he died by suicide in 2019, Epstein had faced federal charges of conspiracy and sex trafficking. In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to two Florida felony counts that included solicitation of a minor. He served nearly 13 months in the Palm Beach County Jail before being released for a year of probation on house arrest until August 2010.
His accomplice and former girlfriend Ghislane Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence on federal sex-trafficking charges.

‘High risk' sex offender jailed for breaching orders
A 'high risk registered sex offender' has been jailed for persistently breaching an order to prevent further offences by using aliases online. The 24-year-old, who appeared on the court list as Luke Hardy but identifies as Zoe Hardy and was referred to using female pronouns during the sentencing hearing, breached Sexual Harm Prevention Orders (SHPO), Teesside Crown Court heard. The first order was imposed in 2022 after Hardy was sentenced to a community order for three counts of making indecent images of children, including eight of the most serious kind, which were found on his mobile phone. Hardy breached that order in 2023 by deleting his internet history on his phone, including erasing dating apps from the handset, which was against the provisions of the order. Later that same year, Hardy breached the order by registering on a pornography site using the name Lucy which was prohibited as that was an alias which he had not notified the police about. The court heard that Hardy explained to police at the time how he was 'struggling with her sexuality, sometimes feeling like Luke, sometimes like Lucy'. Saba Shan, prosecuting, said the latest breach occurred in July when officers visited Hardy's home in Yarm Lane, Stockton after officers had designated him a 'high risk sex offender', and found he had used the name 'Zoe' as part of his identification on a dating app, in an email account and his name on a mobile game. It was understood that the breach occurred because Hardy did not inform police about any use of an alias online. Judge Richard Clews jailed Hardy for eight months for breaching the SHPOs and an extra month when he activated part of previous suspended sentences. He told the defendant: 'It is appropriate to describe the breaches of the Sexual Harm Prevention Order as persistent and deliberate.' He sentenced on the basis that there had been no harm caused to anyone else by Hardy breaching the orders.

Speed driver Chris Raschke dies attempting to set the land speed record during Utah racing event
A speed driver died while trying to break a record during the Bonneville Speed Week event in Utah on Sunday. Chris Raschke, 60, was driving at 283 miles per hour while trying to set a land speed record at Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats. Unfortunately, he lost control of his vehicle two and a half miles into his run, which led to his passing, according to reports. Medical staff quickly acted on the scene before Raschke succumbed to his injuries. In a statement from the Southern California Timing Association, they revealed that the cause of the incident was still under investigation. "At approximately 3:03 p.m. Mountain Time today, driver Chris Raschke was attempting a speed record and lost control of his land speed vehicle at approximately the 2 1/2 mile," The SCTA stated. "Chris was treated by medical professionals at the scene. Unfortunately, Chris passed away from his injuries." Raschke was part of the Speed Demon team out of Ventura, California and drove the Speed Demon Streamliner — a long, narrow, aerodynamic vehicle made to run at high speeds. According to the team website, he began working in motorsports in the 1980s and has been with the Speed Demon team for 13 years. "At this time, we ask everyone to please respect Chris's family, friends, and the Speed Demon team. We are deeply devastated," the team said in a statement. Aside from the Speed Demon team, the American Hot Rod Foundation also mourned Raschke's death. "To those who knew him on the salt, he was someone who found the perfect balance of friendly and competitive. Never a usual combination and one that speaks to the quality of his character," the association stated. "We send our deepest sympathies to Chris's family and friends." The Southern California Timing Association reported that 18 records were set in a total of 261 runs on Sunday. Seven of the records were achieved by cars and 11 were by motorcycles. Speed Week race director Keith Pedersen said Raschke's death was a huge blow to the community. "It's much more of a camaraderie and community, and that builds a lot of friendships and trust," Pedersen told KUTV. "He's a big part of it, and he will be sorely missed." Speed Week will continue at the Bonneville Salt Flats through Friday, August 8.

GOP-Led House Panel Subpoenas Epstein Files and Testimony From Clintons
The Republican-led House Oversight Committee subpoenaed the Justice Department on Tuesday for files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, despite resistance from House GOP leadership and growing unease within the Trump Administration over the political and legal implications of such disclosures. The subpoena calls for the Justice Department to turn over all investigative materials related to Epstein's decades-long sex trafficking operation, with victims' identities redacted. The Committee also issued a broad array of subpoenas for deposition testimony from high-profile figures across both Democratic and Republican administrations—among them former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former FBI Directors James Comey and Robert Mueller, and six former U.S. attorneys general, including Merrick Garland and William Barr. The latest activity from the Committee follows Justice Department officials interviewing Epstein's former associate Ghislaine Maxwell, and then Maxwell being moved to a minimum-security facility in Texas. "While the Department undertakes efforts to uncover and publicly disclose additional information related to Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell's cases, it is imperative that Congress conduct oversight of the federal government's enforcement of sex trafficking laws generally and specifically its handling of the investigation and prosecution of Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell," Rep. James Comer, the Oversight Chair, wrote in a subpoena to Attorney General Pam Bondi. The subpoenas come nearly two weeks after one of the panel's subcommittees voted to compel the Justice Department to release the files, just before the House left for its summer recess. House Speaker Mike Johnson publicly resisted the effort, arguing the Administration needs 'room to act' before Congress intervenes. But the committee's decision to subpoena the Justice Department shows that interest in the Epstein files remains high among Republicans, even as President Donald Trump has repeatedly tried to move past the Justice Department's decision not to release a full accounting of the investigation. A July memo from the Justice Department stated that Epstein died by suicide and that no 'client list' of abusers had been recovered—a conclusion that has only deepened suspicion among conspiracy-minded conservatives and Democrats alike. Democrats first pushed to subpoena the Justice Department for its files on Epstein, and were joined by three Republicans to initiate the subpoena in July. The Justice Department will have until Aug. 19 to hand over the requested records. The committee is also requesting that the former government officials appear for depositions between August and October, concluding with Hillary Clinton on Oct. 9 and Bill Clinton on Oct. 14. While former Presidents have often been subpoenaed, none have ever appeared before lawmakers under compulsion. Clinton's association with Epstein has been publicly known for years and included travel on his plane after he left office, according to court records. The Wall Street Journal reported last month that a book assembled for Epstein's 50th birthday in 2003 included a message from Clinton, as well as Trump and others. Both Clinton and Trump were listed as 'friends' in the book. Trump has denied writing the letter and sued the Wall Street Journal. A spokesperson for Clinton said in 2019 that he cut off ties with Epstein prior to his 2019 arrest and was unaware of Epstein's alleged crimes.
