Great Saint James and Little Saint James are two private islands located in the US Virgin Islands and were once owned by Jeffrey Epstein. The islands have only just gone on the market with lawyer for Epstein’s estate Daniel Weiner saying that some proceeds “will be used by the estate for the resolution of outstanding lawsuits and the regular costs of the estate’s operations”.
Bespoke Real Estate has advertised the sale on their site and details the two islands as having over 96 hectares, six beaches as well as having 9.3km of coastline. Little Saint James contains four villas, two pools, as well as helipads and a main compound among other facilities.
The islands have been shrouded in controversy as it was accused by US Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George that Epstein’s islands was a location where underage girls were sexually assaulted by the billionaire. The lawsuit claimed that girls as young as 12 were taken to the island and abused.
In 2019, Jeffrey Epstein allegedly killed himself in jail where he was awaiting trial for several sex trafficking and related charges. His partner and former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of sex trafficking as well as procuring girls for Epstein and his friends.
