Who Are 6 Redacted Potential Co-Conspirators in Epstein Files? What We Know

Source: Newsweek

Published Feb 10, 2026 at 01:08 PM EST updated Feb 10, 2026 at 01:09 PM EST


The six redacted potential co-conspirators listed in the Epstein files have been revealed. The identities of the six men were disclosed by Representative Ro Khanna, a California Democrat, in a post on X on Tuesday, as Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem and billionaire businessman Leslie Wexner.

Khanna and Representative Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, had claimed that the Department of Justice (DOJ) was improperly keeping the information private.

"My question is, why did it take Thomas Massey and me going to the Justice Department to get these six men's identities to become public?" Khanna said on the House floor. "And if we found six men that they were hiding in two hours, imagine how many men they are covering up for in those 3 million files?"

Why It Matters

The DOJ recently published over 3 million pages of documents, thousands of images and videos from investigations related to Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender who died by suicide in jail while facing sex trafficking charges in 2019.

I got a heads-up that Khanna revealed the names on the House floor from The Guardian but they only had it as a "Live Updates". The RW rag NY Post had it too. But finally found Newsweek has it.

Us poor folk can't afford the plane flight to these places; and most of us have far better things to do.

Never mind, found them in another post. Newsweek identified them as:

Salvatore Nuara - New York Police detective and hitman
Zurab Mikeladze - very little known at this time, possibly Georgian?
Leonic Leonov - very little known at this time, likely Russian?
Nicola Caputo - Italian politician
Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem - Emirati businessman. He is the chairman and chief executive officer of DP World who sent torture video
to Epstein
billionaire businessman Leslie Wexner - American billionaire businessman and Epstein’s longtime financial patron, co-founder of Bath
& Body Works, Abercrombie & Fitch, Victoria's Secret and La Senza

Is this on the cover-up of the Epstein files, or something else?

If it's the Epstein files, I believe Les Wexner has a lot to be worried out. These other names, I've never heard of.

Why the billionaires like Musk, Thiel, Wexler, et al bought Trump the White House and the SCOTUS.

And of course, as Trump is a child rapist also, lots of incentive to keep these people's names in the clear. Hopefully, it will now all come out.

According to several reports, Nuara was a member of the New York Police Department and served as a detective. He was previously investigated in connection with an escort service, though the investigation was not directly related to Epstein.

The most notable, Nicola Caputo, is a former European Parliament member.

Can't find the others yet.

Representative Thomas Massie has identified Emirati businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem as the recipient of the “I loved the torture video” email from disgraced sex predator Jeffrey Epstein. The sultan’s name was initially redacted.
...
As Massie concluded, Blanche “tacitly admitted that Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was the sender of the torture video.”
...
The public version of the email, dated April 24, 2009, shows Epstein messaging someone, “where are you? Are you ok, I loved the torture video.”
...
“This girl is russian father Cypriot mom I met her two years ago she goes to t=e American university in Dubai,” Sulayem wrote to Epstein in September 2015, in another email that identifies him by name. “She got engaged but now she back with me. The best sex I ever had amazing body.”

Richard Strauss, Jacketoff Jordan or any others at OSU knew about this. And OSU still won't settle up about the scandal.
After all OSU has hidden and not punished nor been punished by the now questionable NCAA, I don't evet want to hear anyone complaining about Paterno at Penn State. At least he turned people in.
Where's the NCAA now? Oh yeah. Collecting millions from a pedo. And the NCAA and OSU "bosses" must think that's ok.

Which would place my money on one of the co-conspirators being Gym Jordan. The plot thickens!
