A United States congressman from Tennessee is still pushing for a full list of dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s clients after unsealed court documents from earlier this week named several high-profile figures as associates of Epstein’s.
“I don’t care about the list of people Epstein interacted with in just ANY capacity,” said Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN-02) on X, formerly Twitter. “I care about the list of people who participated in his sex crimes and exploitation, especially when it involved minors. Where’s the actual client list?”

Burchett has been pushing hard for the release of the full list.
“What I want is the client list,” Burchett told Rob Finnerty on NewsMax’s “Wake Up America” earlier this week. “You know, you’ve got these skeevy old dudes that everybody says, ‘Well, they’ve gone and had sex on this island, what’s the big deal?’ No they haven’t. They’ve done an act of violence against a child. They need to be burned on that. That’s the list we need.”
In that interview, he noted that he thinks the coverup will continue.
A spokesperson for Burchett reiterated that belief Friday afternoon.
“Congressman Burchett is not optimistic the client list will be released to the public, and he does believe he may become a target of powerful people on that list because he’s calling it out,” Rachel Partlow, Burchett’s communications director, told The Tennessee Star.
The names released earlier in the week were mentioned in a civil lawsuit filed against Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
Notably listed in the documents were former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, scientist Stephen Hawking, pop star Michael Jackson, magician David Copperfield, lawyer and former Harvard faculty member Alan Dershowitz, and modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel.
Notably, Brunel was found dead in a French jail cell in 2022 while facing charges of child sex trafficking.
The released court documents do not legally implicate any of those listed in crimes against children.
Epstein’s private Little Saint James Island, part of the U.S. Virgin Islands, was long suspected as a pedophile playground for the world’s elite businesspeople, politicians, and others.
