In 1984, Trump watched the baby of a 13-year-old sex trafficking victim be thrown into Lake Michigan, according to newly released Epstein file documents.

“He participated regularly in paying money to force me to [REDACTED] with him and he was present when my uncle murdered my newborn child and disposed of the body in Lake Michigan,” the victim wrote in follow-up correspondence to the FBI in 2020.

The victim was pregnant when her uncle and Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficked her, she said.

The FBI form, where the victim was requesting follow-up with a previous NYPD agent on the FBI Sex Trafficking Task Force, states that she was trafficked from May- September of 1984 and was forced to stay in a yacht on Lake Michigan that arrived from Mona Lake.

“[Epstein] was orchestrating a deal, along with my uncle where different men, and a few women and girls, would come to a variety of boats and yachts and pay money to force me to do [REDACTED] with them when I was 13 and pregnant,” the victim stated.

The Department of Justice has been releasing batches of thousands of Epstein files over the past few weeks, after months of pushback from MAGA representatives. It most recently dropped 30,000 documents on December 23, and noted in a social media post that some claims made about Trump are untrue.

Days prior, the DOJ removed a released image of several photographs of people, including Trump, on a brown wooden table “out of an abundance of caution,” for victims, it said. The image has since been remade public.

On Christmas Day, Trump posted to Truth Social and said:

“Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein, gave him bundles of money, went to his Island, attended his parties, and thought he was the greatest guy on earth, only to “drop him like a dog” when things got too HOT, falsely claimed they had nothing to do with him, didn’t know him, said he was a disgusting person, and then blame, of course, President Donald J. Trump, who was actually the only one who did drop Epstein, and long before it became fashionable to do so.”

He added how the “Radical Left” has been on a “Witch Hunt,” then went on about Russian election interference coverage, which he referred to as a “total Scam,” by “The Failing New York Times.” He reiterated how he is being targeted by the media as it relates to the Epstein Files.”

“Now the same losers are at it again, only this time so many of their friends, mostly innocent, will be badly hurt and reputationally tarnished. But sadly, that’s the way it is in the World of Corrupt Democrat Politics!!! Enjoy what may be your last Merry Christmas!” he added.

Despite Trump and the DOJ’s claims, Trump’s been a key player in the Epstein files: he’s been to parties with Epstein, has flown on his private jet, and even called Epstein a “terrific guy” in a 2002 interview with New York Magazine.

In a 2017 email, Epstein wrote that he’s met “some very bad people – none as bad as trump. not one decent cell in his body,” and called him “dangerous.”
