A witness in Jeffrey Epstein's case, Sarah Ransome, had previously claimed that Epstein kept "sex tapes" of Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, and Richard Branson. However, Ransome soon retracted these claims, admitting that she had "invented" the tapes. A spokesperson for Virgin also confirmed Ransome's claims were "baseless and unfounded." Epstein's legal team had highlighted Ransome's retracted claims in legal filings to demonstrate that she "manifestly lacks credibility."
