Former President Donald Trump’s name appears in newly unsealed documents in a Jeffrey Epstein-linked court case, reports show.
Epstein, who died by suicide in a Manhattan jail cell accused of orchestrating a massive sex-trafficking ring, is quoted saying he would invite Trump, then a real-estate magnate, to a casino, USA Today reports.
In another document, an unnamed witness says she was never asked to have sexual relations with Trump, according to the report.
Trump has never been accused of wrong doing over his well-documented relationship with Epstein.

Epstein and convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell were photographed with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in 2000, and Trump was quoted calling Epstein a “terrific guy” in 2000.
Trump said in 2019 he broke with Epstein 15 years previously and that he wasn’t a “fan,” but the 2000 interview appears to contradict that second claim.
“He’s a lot of fun to be with,” Trump said at the time. “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."
