Jeffrey Epstein received a troubling phone message in 2004 from an unidentified caller stating, “I have a female for him,” according to newly released Justice Department documents. The message was recorded just days before Epstein reportedly received calls from Donald Trump during a high-stakes bidding war over a luxury Florida property.
The timing of the messages was highlighted Friday by retired journalism professor and former prosecutor Seth Abramson, who said their proximity raises unresolved questions about Epstein’s activities during that period.
“As a former investigator, I would have questions,” Abramson wrote on X. “In the same week Epstein and Trump were reportedly playing phone tag and Trump wanted a significant favor, Epstein received a message saying someone had a woman for him.”
The handwritten note containing the unidentified caller’s message was dated Nov. 8, 2004, and addressed to “J.E.,” an apparent reference to Epstein. While the caller’s name was redacted by the Justice Department, the message itself was left unredacted in the latest release of thousands of Epstein-related files.
In July, The Palm Beach Post reported that phone messages documenting calls from Trump to Epstein were discovered during a 2005 police raid on Epstein’s Palm Beach home. Those notes included Trump’s name and phone number and were dated between Nov. 11 and Nov. 20, 2004 — days after the unidentified message referencing a woman.
At the time, Trump and Epstein were competing to purchase a 43,000-square-foot waterfront estate in Palm Beach. Trump ultimately won the bidding war, acquiring the property for more than $41 million.
Trump is not facing criminal charges related to Epstein, nor has he been accused of wrongdoing in connection with the newly released documents.
