A recent release of documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal investigations includes an email from someone identifying as “A,” who claims to be at Balmoral and requests from Ghislaine Maxwell “inappropriate friends.” This email, dated 16 August 2001, opens with the statement, “I am up here at Balmoral Summer Camp for the Royal Family.” Later, the sender inquires, “How’s LA? Have you found me some new inappropriate friends?” and signs off with “see ya A xxx.” Balmoral Castle, where the email claims the sender is located, is a residence belonging to the British royal family.
These emails form part of over 11,000 documents made public on a recent Tuesday by the US Department of Justice. Despite the nature of the requests, the emails do not imply any illegal activity. The BBC reached out to the team of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor for comment; the former prince has denied any wrongdoing in previous statements. He has also maintained that he did not observe or suspect any behavior linked to Epstein’s later arrest and conviction.
The email was sent from the address “abx17@dial.pipex.com,” with the subject line “The Invisible Man.” Maxwell responded on the same day, apologizing for disappointing the sender and explaining that she had only managed to find “appropriate friends.” Additional emails in the release show connections between different addresses tied to the same alias, “The Invisible Man.” A contact marked as “Duke of York” appears in Epstein’s phone book linked to the address “aace@dial.pipex.com.”
Further correspondence from February and March 2002 discusses plans for a trip to Peru. Maxwell forwarded details regarding possible activities to “The Invisible Man,” including a small lunch and horseback riding, and queried about the age of “the girls.” The reply from “The Invisible Man” acknowledged the food plans and left the matter of companions to Maxwell and a third party. One email alludes to Andrew, mentioning sightseeing and social meetings with “intelligent pretty fun” individuals from good families, emphasizing discretion and trustworthiness.
In October, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lost the use of his titles, Prince and Duke of York, because of scrutiny related to his associations with Epstein. The US Department of Justice has been systematically releasing files surrounded by two criminal probes into Epstein during his lifetime, with Congress mandating full disclosure by 19 December. Not all documents have been unveiled yet, and previous appearances of Andrew in the records do not inherently constitute evidence of criminal conduct.
Included in this latest batch is a formal request from the US Department of Justice dating from April 2020, seeking the assistance of British authorities to interview Prince Andrew about his connections to Epstein and Maxwell. The DOJ noted that Andrew “may have been a witness to and/or participant in certain events of relevance to the ongoing investigation,” but clarified he was not a target and that no evidence exists indicating he committed a crime under US law. The request listed topics for the interview, including details about females Andrew met through Epstein or Maxwell and the nature of his relationships with them.
Documents also mention former US President Donald Trump. An email from a 2020 assistant US attorney suggested Trump had flown on Epstein’s private jet “many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware).” In response, Trump stated in 2024, “I was never on Epstein’s Plane,” denying any wrongdoing related to Epstein. The DOJ commented that some files released on Tuesday “contain untrue and sensationalist claims” against Trump
