HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_025637.jpg
An email thread from September 2015 initiated by Lawrence Krauss, sending a New Yorker article about militant atheism to both Noam Chomsky and Jeffrey Epstein (using the alias jeevacation@gmail.com). Chomsky replies with a detailed philosophical rebuttal regarding the use of ridicule against religious and secular dogmas, while also commenting on 'American exceptionalism,' 'Obama's mass murder campaign,' and the controversy surrounding Kim Davis. The document bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_025636.jpg
An email chain from September 2015 between physicist Lawrence Krauss and Jeffrey Epstein.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021431.jpg
This document outlines allegations of sexual misconduct against Lawrence Krauss (referred to as 'you'), specifically detailing an incident at the Melbourne Zoo in November 2016 where he allegedly grabbed a woman's breast. It notes that while formal complaints were filed with ASU and ANU, both universities cleared him of policy violations due to insufficient evidence. The document also lists biographical details about Krauss, including his involvement with the Origins Project and his professional relationship with Richard Dawkins.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021428.jpg
This document contains a detailed rebuttal, likely written by Dr. Lawrence Krauss, addressing sexual harassment allegations investigated by BuzzFeed News reporter Peter Aldhous. The text discusses specific investigations by Arizona State University (ASU) and Australian National University (ANU) regarding a 'selfie' incident in November 2016, where a third party alleged Krauss touched a woman's breast; Krauss denies the claim, citing university reports that found no evidence of physical contact. The document includes a forwarded email from Aldhous dated December 10, 2017, requesting an interview.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021425.jpg
This document is an email thread from December 2017 between Jeffrey Epstein and physicist Lawrence Krauss. Krauss shares drafts of a response to a BuzzFeed News inquiry regarding sexual harassment allegations against him. Epstein replies with strategic advice, suggesting Krauss 'attack' the accusers and claiming the allegations are likely false or previously dismissed. Use of the 'jeevacation' email address confirms Epstein's involvement.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021423.jpg
This document appears to be a fact-checking email or request for comment sent by journalist Peter Aldhous to physicist Lawrence Krauss (implied). It outlines Krauss's public profile and confronts him with specific controversies, primarily his defense of Jeffrey Epstein and financial ties to Epstein's foundation (specifically a $100,000 pledge to the Origins Project). It also references past allegations of misconduct against Krauss mentioned in blog posts from 2013.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021422.jpg
This document outlines specific allegations of sexual misconduct against Lawrence Krauss (identified by his works and the Origins Project). It details incidents on a CFI cruise in 2011 and at the Melbourne Zoo in 2016, noting that while complaints were filed with ASU and ANU, university officials stated there was insufficient evidence or no policy violation found. The document appears to be part of a House Oversight Committee file.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021420.jpg
An email from BuzzFeed News reporter Peter Aldhous to physicist Dr. Lawrence Krauss, dated December 10, 2017, notifying him of an upcoming story regarding sexual misconduct allegations spanning 2006-2016. The email details a specific 2006 incident in Washington D.C. involving a volunteer for the Center for Inquiry, alleging Krauss invited her to his hotel room and forcibly assaulted her. The document bears a House Oversight stamp, indicating it was part of a congressional investigation.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021416.jpg
This document is an email chain from December 2017 between physicist Lawrence Krauss and Jeffrey Epstein (using the alias Jeffrey E.). Krauss is seeking Epstein's advice on how to respond to an urgent inquiry from BuzzFeed News regarding allegations of sexual harassment. Epstein advises Krauss to provide a short cover letter and notes that the media's strategy is often to take the defense to the accusers and attack them.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021411.jpg
This document is an email chain between BuzzFeed News reporter Peter Aldhous and physicist Dr. Lawrence Krauss regarding allegations of sexual harassment. Aldhous challenges Krauss's previous assertion that university investigations (by ASU and ANU) found the claims to be fabricated. In the response (top half), Krauss defends himself, detailing that the complaints were anonymous, that the alleged victim never complained, and that the universities cleared him of wrongdoing regarding a specific 'selfie' incident in November 2016.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021409.jpg
This document is a detailed rebuttal, likely written by physicist Lawrence Krauss (based on the specific career trajectory and allegations mentioned), addressing two specific complaints of misconduct ('Item 2' and 'Item 6'). The author defends his interactions with a female student at Case Western Reserve University, stating their relationship was professional and mentorship-focused. He also addresses an allegation regarding a 'selfie' taken in November 2016 at an ANU-related event, citing an internal investigation that found the allegations not credible and noting the alleged victim never filed a complaint. The document appears to be part of a larger submission to the House Oversight Committee.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021091.jpg
This document is an email thread from April 2011 containing the text of a Daily Beast article titled or related to 'Daily Beast'. The article details how New York socialites (like Peggy Siegal, Jonathan Farkas, and Debbie Bancroft) and scientists (Lawrence Krauss) continued to support and associate with Jeffrey Epstein after his initial incarceration, offering various justifications for his behavior. The email itself is from a 'Jonathan' (likely the Jonathan Farkas mentioned in the text) to Peter Green, discussing the article and mentioning plans to contact Catherine Crier.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_032342.jpg
An email dated November 10, 2016, from Jeffrey Epstein to physicist Lawrence Krauss. The body of the email consists solely of a link to a Daily Mail article reporting that a sexual assault claim involving Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein had been fabricated. The email includes a standard confidentiality disclaimer identifying the content as property of 'JEE'.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_022453.jpg
This document is a page of testimonials for the publication 'Inference: International Review of Science', featuring positive feedback from academics William Kininmonth, Matthew Kleban, Lawrence Krauss, and Martin Krieger. The document's relevance to the Epstein case stems from the endorsement by Lawrence Krauss, a known associate of Jeffrey Epstein, for a journal that was reportedly funded by Epstein. The footer 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_022453' indicates this page was part of evidence submitted to a congressional committee.

Re: sorry
Discusses 1500 hits on a Buzzfeed announcement, pressure from supporters, wondering if he will recover, and wishing Trump would be indicted.
Re: sorry
Epstein advises Krauss to concentrate on point-by-point refutation, comparing accusers to people seeing flying saucers, and to characterize charges as 'ludicrous', 'ogling', or 'jokes'.
