Today I learned: Epstein Island had an area of 28 ha

cross-posted from: https://sopuli.xyz/post/31937984

The island was Epstein's primary residence,[4][14] and he called the island "Little St. Jeff".

In April 1998, a company called L.S.J. LLC purchased the island for $7.95 million, and documents showed that Jeffrey Epstein was the sole member of L.S.J

A temple was built on the island, it contained an image of the pope and Epstein.

28 ha is quite big. 280000 square meters of prime real estate, with palm gardens, mountains and tropical climate. Maybe the files are hidden there under the X mark?

islanders "begged" Kjær and his wife Susan Astani not to sell the land to Epstein

I don't understand how you can legally own a populated island

The same way a landlord can own the ground (and the house of course) they are renting out.
