Jeffrey Epstein's infamous 'pedophile island' put up for sale for $125 million

Properties of the deceased convicted sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein have been put up for sale, including two of his private islands in the Caribbean, for $125 million.

Both islands, the Little St. James and the undeveloped Great St. James, are located in the U.S. Virgin Islands. According to lawyers of Epstein's estate, proceeds from the sale will go toward resolving his legal cases.

In 2020, US Virgin Islands attorney general Denise George filed a lawsuit against the disgraced financier, accusing him of sexual abuse and trafficking of dozens of girls as young as 11 years old on Little St. James. Epstein liked to call the island "Little St. Jeff" but locals referred to it as "Pedophile Island."

Past victims have shared their experiences of trying to escape from the island and swim through shark-infested waters. Netflix even released a docu-series titled Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich, which features stories from survivors.

The financier bought the 70-acre Little St. James in 1998 for $8 million. Over the years, it's has housed a villa with a library, a Japanese bathhouse, and a movie theater. It initially had a main house, three guest cottages, a caretaker's cottage, a private desalination system, a helipad, and a dock.

Britain's disgraced Prince Andrew is among the biggest names to have visited the islands, while former US president Bill Clinton was also widely reported to have dropped by on multiple occasions.
