The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has released new files in connection with Jeffrey Epstein. As per a copy of an email that was in the files, the notorious financier was allegedly banned from Xbox Live on account of harassing, abusing, and making threats to other players. According to the copy of the email:“This email is to notify you that your Xbox Live account privileges have been permanently suspended due to harassment, threats, and/or abuse of other players. This conduct has been determined to be severe, repeated, and/or excessive.”The email was dated December 19, 2013. The document also lists the reasons for taking the decision. These included:“Threats of death, harm, property damage, or any other act of violence or vandalism/Verbal abuse or profanity directed at other players/Griefing/Extortion or manipulation/Libel, defamation, or slander/Display or transmission of personally-identifiable information such as name, address, phone number, or IP address/Stalking.”The email from Xbox explained that Epstein’s alleged behavior had been reported, either by other Xbox users or noticed during Xbox’s regular checks. The Xbox team reviewed the complaints and the evidence and decided that his actions broke Xbox’s rules. Because of this rule-breaking behavior, the team chose to suspend his account.What did the second email in the Epstein files say?There was also a second email seemingly addressed to Jeffrey Epstein. As seen in a copy of the same posted on The Verge, the message was that the Xbox Live account associated with the email address was “permanently banned.” It noted:“This action is based on the New York Attorney Generals partnership with Microsoft and other online gaming companies to remove New York registered sex offenders from online gaming services to minimize the risk to others, particularly children. As a result, any Xbox LIVE account associated with this email address will not be able to connect to Xbox LIVE.”The email went on to say:“If you have an Xbox LIVE Gold subscription, or any unused Microsoft points, we are refunding the remaining value of those to you within 30 days. If you do not receive a refund within 30 days, or if you feel that you have been banned incorrectly, please send Microsoft a notice using the process at www.xbox.com/notice.”Announcing the release of the files, US Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said that Epstein’s victims had gone through “unspeakable pain.” However, he hoped that the work that the department did over the last few months helped many get closure.Attorney Arick Fudali, who represented 11 victims in Epstein’s case, told CNN that whatever the DOJ has produced came with a lot of redactions. He added:“You know, there are some very alarming statements from the Department of Justice today discussing what they've withheld and what they've redacted. And most alarming was they cited attorney-client privilege and ongoing investigations.”He alleged that the release of the Epstein files seemed like a “cover-up” on one hand and “incompetence” on the other. Fudali said that what they don’t want people to see is being covered up.
