WASHINGTON D.C. () A group of Jeffrey Epstein survivors is compiling their own “client list” confidentially, one woman announced at a news conference Wednesday.

“Us Epstein survivors have discussed creating our own list,” the woman said. “We know the names. Many of us were abused by them.”

Survivors gathered on Capitol Hill on Wednesday to push for legislation to release all of the documents related to the investigation into the disgraced financier Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Another accuser said on Wednesday that Epstein would often brag about his powerful friends, including President Donald Trump, saying in part, “In those moments I realized how powerless I was.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said it was understandable that some of the women would be afraid to name those included in a potential client list, but said if they were willing to turn those names over to her, she would go to the House floor and reveal “every damn name” they gave her.

“I wholeheartedly support this important step,” attorney Lisa Bloom, who represents several Epstein accusers, told . “If the Epstein survivors had been believed to begin with, we wouldn’t be here now.”

“I’m encouraged that this group of brave women are taking upon themselves, since the government continues to fail them, to compile their own list of Epstein’s enablers and perhaps even co-abusers,” Arick Fudali, who represents 11 Epstein survivors, told . “I look forward to learning more about this endeavor.”

‘It’s Epstein’s sex buyer list’: Survivor

Teresa Helm, an Epstein and Maxwell accuser, said during the news conference, “Let’s stop calling it an Epstein client list … it’s Epstein’s sex buyer list.”

The survivors said all documents related to the investigation should be released.

“A lot of us survivors know we’ve been compiling lists of our own, and we have so many other survivors,” Lisa Phillips told NBC News on Tuesday. “Please come forward, and we’ll compile our own list and seek justice on our own.”

“I mean, I think that’s what’s going to happen next,” she added.

Which Epstein files have been released?

The House Oversight Committee released more than 30,000 documents related to the Epstein investigation on Tuesday after meeting with survivors.

Video footage of Epstein’s home shot by the Palm Beach Police Department in 2005, as part of a previous investigation into him, were part of the evidence released.

In a statement, the committee wrote: “Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released 33,295 pages of Epstein-related records that were provided by the U.S. Department of Justice. On August 5, Chairman Comer issued a subpoena for records related to Mr. Jeffrey Epstein, and the Department of Justice has indicated it will continue producing those records while ensuring the redaction of victim identities and any child sexual abuse material.”

Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee subpoenaed the Epstein estate for a slew of sensitive documents, including anything resembling a client list and Epstein’s “birthday book” a 2003 volume, compiled by his former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, that reportedly includes a letter written by Trump when he was a private citizen in New York. Those materials are slated for delivery to Capitol Hill by Sept. 8.

The subpoena came months after the FBI and DOJ announced in April that, after an “exhaustive review” into Epstein’s death, investigators did not find a client list in the evidence collected as part of the investigation. The agencies said at the time that no further evidence would be released related to the case.

In July, the Justice Department also released video footage of the area near Epstein’s cell the night before he was found dead in 2019.

Forensic expert Jake Green told  in July it was concerning that nearly three minutes of footage were cut from the source video.

In February, the DOJ released what it called “The Epstein Files: Phase 1,” which primarily included information that had been previously made public.

The FBI declined to comment on the survivors’ statement about their own list on Wednesday.
