The Latest on new sex-trafficking charges against financier Jeffrey Epstein (all times local):
1:05 p.m.
Prosecutors say Jeffrey Epstein kept perhaps thousands of sexually suggestive photographs at his Manhattan mansion.
Officials say in court papers Monday that the pictures included some on CDs with handwritten labels including "Misc nudes 1," ''Girl pics nude" and the names of specific young women.
Prosecutors say federal agents found some of the photos "of young-looking women or girls" in a locked safe while searching the seven-story town house after the wealthy financier's arrest Saturday on sex trafficking charges.
The 66-year-old Epstein is accused of creating and maintaining a network that allowed him to sexually exploit and abuse dozens of girls from 2002 to 2005.
Prosecutors say the lawyer for one of the girls pictured told them the girl was underage when the photos were taken.
It's not clear whether all the photos depict girls involved in the alleged sex trafficking operation.
Epstein's lawyer didn't immediately return messages seeking comment.

11:40 a.m.
Prosecutors say federal agents investigating wealthy sex offender Jeffrey Epstein found "nude photographs of what appeared to be underage girls" while searching his Manhattan mansion.
U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman said at a press conference Monday agents discovered the photos while executing a search warrant following Epstein's arrest Saturday on sex trafficking charges.
The 66-year-old Epstein is accused of creating and maintaining a network that allowed him to sexually exploit and abuse dozens of underage girls from 2002 to 2005.
Messages were sent to his defense attorney seeking comment.
Epstein was arrested at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey after his private jet landed from Paris.
He is expected to appear in Manhattan federal court later Monday.
Berman said prosecutors will ask that he remain jailed pending trial, arguing he is a flight risk.

How many of Slick Willie...and Hillary?
Maybe he kept some blackmail pictures on his guests...
So, would he be the type to make secret tapes for “insurance purposes?
Those will be deleted by Comey’s ADA daughter.
I’m surprised they didn’t impound a whole server farm of porno this guy took.
I would imagin he did exactly that.
His ability to get another “sweet deal” will hinge on his ability to implicate Donald Trump. Those photos are the only ones these Feds care about.
Indubitably................
I have no doubts at all.
He was a huge DEMOCRAT donor.....................
What good would getting politicians and wealthy entertainers into sexually compromising situations if you couldn’t prove and therefore leverage it? He wasn’t flying these cretins down there on his own jet just to be friendly. Of course he has evidence.
Someone pointed out that this prosecution is coming from the same NY team that is pursuing non-related charges against Trump. Thus we should probably expect some partisanship.
Maybe we will get lucky and the prosecutors will put the abused girls above their partisanship and prosecute all involved (ahem Clinton).
How many of Slick Willie...and Hillary?

Not a problem for them. They still have lots of friends inside DOJ to protect them.
Setting the stage for the deepfakes?
He was a huge DEMOCRAT donor.......

A veritable ‘Get out of jail free’ card.
Again, this is a tip-of-the-iceberg deflection from the real crimes involved here—including with the Deep State and CIA, etc.
Just another cover up that is trying to dirty Trump along the way.
I bet there will be a long list, which will be sealed, of people who get immunity in exchange for “cooperating” [code for being Democrat or DNC supporters]. There may even be some bigwigs who “see the light” and make some last minute contributions to the DNC.
This has all the possibilities for a great shake-down.
This all happened at his house in USA. Imagine what was going on on his private island.
If there aren’t pictures of the participants and guests as well, then there’s another stash somewhere.
Of course he did. Just like a murderer and/or rapists keep some type of
“Trophies” of their victims.
