NEW YORK — Social media speculation circulated on Saturday alleging that a photograph contained in recently released Jeffrey Epstein case files depicted Robert Kraft, prompting denials and a lack of confirmation from official sources.
The image, shared widely across online platforms following the publication of additional Epstein-related documents, was not identified by name in the court materials. No law enforcement agency or court filing linked Kraft to the photograph, according to a review of the released records…
Separate reporting and automated content reviews circulating online stated that the individual shown could not be confirmed as Kraft, citing discrepancies with publicly available images. No official attribution accompanied the image in the document release.
Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, has not been named in the Epstein case filings made public this week. Representatives for Kraft did not issue a public statement in connection with the claims as of publication.
The document release forms part of a broader unsealing process tied to civil litigation connected to Epstein, which includes thousands of pages of records, exhibits and references to unnamed individuals. Authorities said the release of documents does not constitute findings of wrongdoing and that materials may reference individuals without alleging or establishing misconduct.
No charges or investigative actions involving Kraft were announced by U.S. authorities at the time of publication.
