New photo appears to show ‘wild’ Epstein dinner with Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk

A newly unearthed photograph shed new light on a 2015 dinner attended by Jeffrey Epstein, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, an event that Epstein described in an email as “wild.”

Published last week by the Justice Department, the photograph in question is included in an email Epstein had sent to himself on August 3, 2015. The photograph appears to show Zuckerberg and Musk sitting around a table in a dramatically lit room.

The day before Epstein had emailed the photograph to himself, he emailed celebrity doctor and CBS News contributor Peter Attia – whose deep ties to Epstein were exposed this week, sparking calls for his firing – that later that evening, he had plans for “dinner with musk thiel [and] zuckerburg.”

Epstein again referenced the dinner with Zuckerberg and Musk in an Aug. 20 email to Tom Pritzker, the Hyatt executive chairman who has been accused by a prominent Epstein accuser of sex trafficking, an accusation he “continues to vehemently deny.”

“i had dinner with zuckerburg, mu=k, thiel hoffman, wild,” Epstein wrote to Pritzker.

Zuckerberg has previously acknowledged the dinner event with Epstein, with his spokesperson saying Zuckerberg had only met Epstein “in passing, one time at a dinner honoring scientists that was not organized by Epstein.”

Musk, however, has not publicly acknowledged the dinner. He’s also claimed that Epstein had “repeatedly” tried to get him to visit his island and that he “declined,” a remark that has since been contradicted after newly revealed emails that showed Musk had “practically begged for an invitation” to Epstein’s island.

The dinner photograph Epstein emailed to himself was partially revealed in an August New York Times report featuring previously unseen images from inside his Manhattan mansion. The report showed a cabinet lined with framed photographs, including one that appears to match the image Epstein emailed himself in 2015, though it is partially obscured by another framed photograph.
