The records reveal that Epstein’s longtime assistant, Lesley Groff, repeatedly instructed American Express staff to keep flight information hidden, remove email addresses from confirmations, and ensure that travel details were tightly controlled. The documents also describe how fake or temporary itineraries were allegedly arranged for visa purposes, allowing women to secure travel documents using reservations that were later canceled. Internal communications show at least one Amex representative acknowledging that some of the requests were “against Amex policy,” while still offering ways to accommodate them. The records provide a rare inside look at how Epstein allegedly used elite financial services and concierge-style corporate relationships to facilitate the movement of women across borders for years after his 2008 Florida conviction. Emails describe flights being coordinated between cities such as Moscow, Minsk, Miami, Palm Beach, Paris, and New York, with Groff at times referring to groups simply as “the girls.” The documents also show how obsessed Epstein’s office was with secrecy, with repeated panic over flight confirmations accidentally being sent to the wrong people.
