Federal Bureau of Investigation files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case were reportedly compromised by a foreign hacker in 2023, according to a Reuters report citing sources and documents.

The breach allegedly involved files held by the FBI concerning the late financier and convicted sex offender, who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Reuters reported the incident as exclusive information obtained from sources and documentation, though specific details about the nature of the compromise or the foreign entity involved were not disclosed.

Separately, testimony from the ongoing release of Epstein-related court documents has revealed new allegations. According to court filings, a woman told investigators she attended a trade event in New Orleans that she described as being attended by what she characterized as inappropriate individuals, where late British television presenter Jimmy Savile allegedly provided entertainment.

Savile, who died in 2011, was posthumously revealed to have been involved in widespread sexual abuse scandals in the United Kingdom. The woman's testimony represents part of the continuing legal proceedings and document releases related to the Epstein case.

The FBI has not publicly commented on the reported cybersecurity breach. The Epstein case has continued to generate legal proceedings and document releases years after his death, involving various high-profile individuals and institutions.
