DOJ Files Name Lesley Groff Over 150,000 Times, Second Only to Epstein

The records depict Epstein’s longtime assistant as his primary secretary for travel logistics.

Overview

  • Groff’s name appears more than 150,000 times in the newly unredacted Department of Justice documents, the second-highest count after Epstein.
  • From 2001 until Epstein’s death in 2019, she managed his schedules, communications, meetings, and travel as his executive assistant.
  • A federal lawyer quoted in the files described her as the primary secretary who arranged travel for Epstein, his employees, and victims, accounting for the extensive mentions.
  • Groff has not faced criminal charges, and civil lawsuits that named her were largely dismissed, withdrawn, or resolved through settlements or victim compensation programs.
  • Lawmakers and journalists are reviewing the cache to assess her gatekeeping role and the logistics that structured access to Epstein’s network.
