"In between hobnobbing with royalty and world leaders and abusing children and young women, Jeffrey Epstein appears to have been googling himself regularly. Across several batches of documents related to the convicted sex offender made public, we see Epstein shoot off emails to associates, complaining that his digital footprint includes factual information about his crimes. i want the google page cleaned ( November 5th, 2010) mike „ can you olcan up my wiki page ( April 18th, 2011) Any way to clean up my wiki page ( September 17th, 2013)"
"Epstein regularly directed his gripes at Al Seckel, a fixer type who appears over and over in Epstein files and promises to bury news articles and other content that mentions his abuse. But Seckel didn't do it alone. Over thousands of documents, it's clear that many people - SEO consultants, contacts in the sciences, and even unrelated acquaintances - helped to obscure Epstein's past whenever someone searched for him online."
Thousands of internal messages show Jeffrey Epstein repeatedly trying to erase or bury online information about his sexual abuse. He sent multiple emails requesting that Google results and Wikipedia pages be cleaned. Epstein routed many requests to Al Seckel, who promised to bury news articles and other content that mentioned his abuse. The network also included SEO consultants, contacts inside scientific institutions, reputation-management firms, and acquaintances who performed favors to obscure his past. Cleanup efforts continued after Epstein's guilty plea and registration as a sex offender, with specialists and allies repeatedly working to soften or remove references to his crimes.
