image source: bbc.com
After Jeffrey Epstein was convicted for underage sex trafficking, it's claimed by locals of his island that he was actually still flying in girls after his conviction - and, worse, that apparently authorities didn't do anything to keep tabs on him or to stop him from doing so.
Was It Overlooked Because He 'Tipped So Well'?
image source: reddit.com
Another shocking allegation is that many people overlooked what Epstein was doing - and who he was bringing in - because he "tipped so well". Employees at the airstrip located on the island, the way Epstein would have traveled to and from, have said that certainly seemed to be the case..
Air Traffic Controllers Say They Spotted Him 'With Children'
image source: reddit.com
As air traffic controllers and airstrip employees of this particular island, the workers would have seen a lot in terms of Epstein's comings and goings. Since his conviction, some air traffic controllers have claimed to have seen him boarding his plane with underage girls, "children".
The Girls Would Be Seen With Designer Shopping Bags
image source: reddit.com
The workers on the airstrip would often see girls coming and going carrying designer shopping bags: Gucci, Dior etc. But they'd also be wearing college sweatshirts a lot of the time, apparently, too. The bags suggested Epstein would fly them for shopping off the island, too..
Epstein Made No Attempts To Hide It
image source: nbcnews.com
Employees of the island would note that Epstein would make absolutely no attempt to hide what he was doing, even after his registered sex offender conviction, and would shepherd the girls in broad daylight. Some employees likened it to the face of serial killer acting in broad daylight.

image source: caribbean.loopnews.com

Island Employees Were Shocked By His Audacity
image source: newyorkpost.com
Not only was Epstein convicted of these child sex offenses, he also fully denied them in court. Many employees of the island, specifically the air strip, were shocked how the man could act so 'brazen' in still taking young girls to his island, after denying it - and then after being convicted.
He Has Two Islands: Not Just One
image source: businessinsider.com
When we talk and think of Epstein and where he took these girls, he's known for 'Epstein island' and that specific island in particular - but did you know he actually owned
two islands? Both private islands in the Caribbean - Little St James, the most well known, and Great St James.
His Crimes Didn't Just Take Place On These Islands, Either
image source: townandcountrymag.com
Epstein was evil enough that he apparently didn't care where he committed his crimes and met up with these underage girls. One alleged victim claimed in a lawsuit that he would commit his crimes in his other homes across the world, including Florida and New York.
He Didn't Care About Renovation Laws, Either
image source: nbcnews.com
Epstein wanted to make some serious renovations to the islands, and he wasn't about to let a little thing like the law get in his way. There was some illegal construction work that was happening, and things planned, like an 'underwater office and pool', that went against environmental laws.
He Made It Difficult For Innocent Tourists
image source: npr.com
Not enough that he'd bought out the island to have his own turf and to commit his crimes, but he also made it difficult for visiting tourists. If scuba divers or snorkelers went anywhere near the island, security guards would show up at the edge of the water, and he also shut down nearby attractions, like Christmas Cove.
The Island Was Perfect For Avoiding Detection
image source: abcnews.com
No doubt exactly how Epstein and his associates had wanted to set up their private island life, the two St James islands were perfectly placed to avoid detection from the local police department, or anyone noticing their illegal activity. The islands were also set up to avoid the young women being able to freely leave.
His Huge Renovations Made The Locals Very Suspicious
image source: nbcnews.com
Despite the islands being tucked away, that doesn't mean locals still didn't catch wind of some things that were happening: mainly the huge renovation changes he was making. These included utility buildings, cottages, a tennis court, a lagoon and access for golf buggies to transport people across the island.
The Staff Were Ordered To 'Stay Out Of Sight'
image source: newyorkmagazine.com
God forbid a rich criminal would see the people working hard to maintain his private island. Apparently staff on the island were not only ordered to always stay out of sight whenever Epstein was there, and to make sure he wouldn't see them doing their work, they were also 'sworn to secrecy'.
They Were Forbidden To Enter His Offices
image source: thenewyorktimes.com
You'd think staff on the island would need to go into his offices - of which there were two on the island - from time to time, to clean mostly and to do what they're paid to do. But they were strictly forbidden from entering his offices at all, in which was a locked steel safe.
He Would Pay His Staff For 'Interesting' Pirate Treasure
image source: reddit.com
For anybody else, having an island in the Caribbean and having an interest in pirate treasure would seem quirky, but for Epstein this just seems like yet another weird fact. He would apparently reward his staff for any interesting pirate treasure, like old rum bottles - and the more interesting he thought they were, the more he'd pay.
Epstein Didn't Like To Eat Meals In Front Of People
image source: entertainmentweekly.com
Why not? Was he insecure about the way he chewed? Did he just want to be alone while he had a meal? Yet another weird fact about Epstein and what he did on this island. Apparently he'd take his food and snacks to his rooms to eat privately rather than eat with others.
Some Of The Island's Staff Regret Not Saying Anything
image source: nbcnews.com
With Epstein's obvious herding of the underage children and the company he kept on the island, a lot of the staff had thought not to say anything because they presumed law enforcement were actually doing something about it. They also didn't know who to tell, or if anyone cared to listen.
