Today, video footage revealed that at least a dozen FBI agents arrived at and are raiding Epstein’s island – officially named Great St. James, but more commonly known as “Pedophile Island” – where Jeffrey was alleged to have had sex with underage girls.
An FBI spokesperson later confirmed this as fact, “Yes, we’re on the island. But we can’t provide any further detail unfortunately.”

Keep in mind that this is the same island that drone footage captured strange peculiarities on, like what appears to be a temple!

Daily Mail has more details into the FBI's raid of Epstein's island:
FBI agents were seen raiding Jeffrey Epstein's private US Virgin Island, which has been dubbed 'Pedophile Island', as the sex trafficking probe around the now deceased billionaire intensifies, as exclusive DailyMailTV footage shows the search being carried out.
A large group of FBI officers were seen disembarking speedboats at the pier of Little St James on Monday morning and driving around on golf carts after the 66-year-old was found dead by suicide in his New York jail cell early on Saturday morning.
Other officials with 'FBI' lettering on clear display were later seen overlooking the crystal blue sea from the top of Epstein's remote luxury home off the coast of St Thomas.
The search comes after 2,000 pages of documents detailing the lurid allegations of his sexual abuse of underage girls were unsealed to the public on Friday, adding more fuel to the fire of the government's case of sex trafficking against Epstein.
An onlooker, who asked to remain anonymous and shot the footage, told DailyMailTV: 'I'm on a boat charter with guests. We are the only guests out here at the moment.
'We were enjoying lunch when we saw over a dozen people getting off their speedboats and landing on the island.
'When we looked harder, we could see the FBI logo on the backs of their shirts.
'It didn't take long for us to realize they must be conducting a raid on Epstein's house.'
The home - dubbed 'pedophile island' and 'orgy island' - is at the center of an ongoing sex trafficking probe into the criminal financier.
Allegations have been made that underage girls were used as sex slaves and repeatedly abused inside a temple on the island.
The raid comes days after the 66-year-old was found dead by suicide in his New York jail cell early on Saturday morningMany members of the community believe that Epstein hid young girls he allegedly enslaved in underground rooms below the temple and other parts of the island. There is no concrete evidence to support that claim.
Sources say Epstein flew the girls into St. Thomas then shuttled them over to his island on a boat named after Ghislaine Maxwell, his ex-girlfriend and his alleged 'madam'. The boat was called Lady Ghislaine.

Federal Bureau of Investigation agents raided Jeffrey Epstein’s personal US Virgin Island on Monday — two days after the alleged child sex trafficker was found dead in his cell.

The Washington Examiner confirmed:
At least a dozen members of Customs and Border Protection and the FBI landed on Jeffrey Epstein’s infamous Little St. James — nicknamed “Pedophile Island” — in the U.S. Virgin Islands on Monday, two days after the accused child sex trafficker was found dead in his Manhattan prison cell in an apparent suicide.
Multiple news outlets captured video and photos of the agents landing at the island’s dock by boat, with some agents then getting into golf carts while other agents appeared to search the surrounding water in scuba gear.
"Yes, we're on the island," an FBI spokesperson told the Washington Examiner. "But we can't provide any further detail unfortunately."
Alleged victims of Epstein claim that the island was used to have sex with underage girls. Besides the island, Epstein owned a mansion in Manhattan, an estate in Palm Beach, a ranch in New Mexico, and an apartment in Florida.
The Bureau of Prisons said Saturday that Epstein was found unresponsive in his cell, but NYC’s medical examiner is still investigating the cause of death.
This morning, Barr said he was appalled to find out about Epstein’s death and said he was already “learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning” and that he had demanded “a thorough investigation.” Barr vowed that the probe into Epstein will continue and warned that Epstein’s co-conspirators “should not rest easy.”
Prosecutors in the Southern District of New York said Saturday that their investigation remains ongoing.
Epstein, a convicted sex offender and jet-setting financier, was alleged to have sexually exploited and abused dozens of underage girls at his homes in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida, among other locations, between 2002 and 2005 and perhaps beyond. Prosecutors claimed that Epstein enticed and recruited minor girls for sex and built a “vast network of underage victims.”
