At a November 18 court conference, US District Judge Loretta Preska announced she would unseal the identities of eight "Does" trying to stay anonymous in a long-running lawsuit between Ghislaine Maxwell, the pal of Jeffrey Epstein who's been convicted of sex trafficking, and Virginia Giuffre, their most prominent accuser.
The exception, Preska said, was "Doe 183," whom she identified as someone with ties to Epstein and whose name appeared repeatedly in Maxwell's criminal trial.
"That Doe's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has been a subject of intense media coverage, and Doe 183's name has appeared in numerous places in unsealed portions of Ms. Maxwell's criminal trial transcript," Preska said. "In the court's view, there's no reason to redact Doe 183 from the documents."
But, Preska noted, Doe 183 wanted to appeal her ruling. So, she said, their name would remain secret for now.
The lengths that Doe 183 has gone to in order to hide their identity are unusual. They have been fighting for months - perhaps years - to keep their name out of public court documents.
Every court filing they've submitted in the case has been under seal. Nothing from them appears on the public court docket. Even lawyers for Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald reporter who intervened in the case to bring documents about Epstein to light, have not been permitted to see them.
What we do know, however, is that every document they object to unsealing seems to be related to one of Epstein's longtime friends and benefactors: Leslie Wexner.
We also know that Doe 183 and Wexner have the same lawyer. And when Insider asked that lawyer about his work for Doe 183, a representative for Wexner responded, declining to comment.

Led is a creepy dude no matter what.
Led as in Les Wexner.
Funny how not one single person who who actually raped these under age girls has been named except for one.
You’d think the Feds would all over them.
Weird.
L
Is Zhou Xiden on the list?
It’s the only thing that the NY Times and the Wash Post have less interest in than Hunter Bidon’s laptop.
Strictly a hypothetical, of course....
Could be BJ Clinton.
Ping to more Epstein intrigue.
Epstein and Maxwell ran a playground for the rich and powerful. It should not surprise anyone that neither the DOJ or MSM has any interest in getting the names released. One thing for certain....you can bet there’s no Trump on the list!
Is somebody still holding their breath waiting for someone to be prosecuted and jailed for their part in this?
Other than Giselle Max, dont hold your breath.
These snakes are detetable. What give them the right to hide behind a ‘Doe’euphamism.
We can be certain that Donald Trump is not one of the names.
We can hope, unless you know more than I do.
Don’t forget about Epstein’s New Mexico ‘baby making ranch’.
1. What happened to the mothers?
2. What happened to the babies?
3. Who were the babies trafficked or sold to?
4. Why does the media want us all to forget about the New Mexico ranch?
Who is Wexner?
Owns Victorias Secret and the Gap.
If Trump’s name was on Epstein’s list, the NY Time would be mentioning it 24x7.
This is the first I’ve ever heard of this.
it would have been revealed 2 years ago.
