Inside Epstein’s Demolished Mansion: FBI Raid Photos Submitted at Maxwell Trial

by | Apr 29, 2026 | Miami News

Never-before-seen photographs taken during a 2005 FBI raid on Jeffrey Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion were entered into evidence at the 2021 trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, offering a rare glimpse inside the property where prosecutors alleged widespread abuse took place.

The redacted images, released by federal prosecutors, documented what appeared to be provocative artwork throughout the home — some allegedly depicting minors. Prosecutors described Maxwell as the “lady of the house” and argued the estate was a central site of the abuse.

Four accusers testified at trial, three using pseudonyms to protect their privacy. Former household staff corroborated seeing teenage girls at the property regularly through the late 1990s and early 2000s. Maxwell, 59, denied all charges; her defense argued she was being scapegoated for crimes prosecutors could no longer pin on Epstein, who died by suicide in federal custody in 2019. The property was purchased for $18.5 million and demolished in 2021.
