Claims of former U.S. Vice President Al Gore being one of late s*x offender Jeffrey Epstein’s clients have recently made it online. This comes after hundreds of documents related to the latter and his interaction with his alleged partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, were released to the public.

Several high-profile celebrities were mentioned in the list of associates. Al Gore, however, was not one of them.

X user @Prolotario1 was one among the many who, in a tweet, named Oprah Winfrey, Chris Tucker, Prince Andrew, Bobby Kotick and Al Gore to allegedly be part of the list. They added that their careers were over after being mentioned in the viral Jeffrey Epstein document.

Although the netizen did not explicitly name Al Gore as Epstein’s client, the tweet seemed to hint at the same.

At the time of writing this article, the tweet had gone viral with over six million views.

X user @MS_Sambo_ also claimed on the social networking site that Al Gore had allegedly been exposed for being a client of Epstein.

Al Gore, who served as the Vice President to former POTUS, Bill Clinton, between 1993 and 2001, also ran for president in 2000, but lost to George W. Bush.


Al Gore was named in two filings connected to Jeffrey Epstein, but not as an associate

As per Newsweek, in a May 2016 deposition, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged victims, Johanna Sjöberg, claimed to have never seen Gore or his wife Tipper Gore on the infamous Little St. James Island, where Epstein allegedly trafficked and abused his victims.

Al Gore was also mentioned in an April 29, 2016, filing.

While the statesman was mentioned in the now-unsealed documents, a list of Epstein’s clientele was not made public at the time of writing this article. Hence, it cannot be assumed that Gore was one of his associates or clients.


Former President Bill Clinton was mentioned in the unsealed documents

While Al Gore has not been confirmed as being Epstein's client, former President Bill Clinton was named on the list of associates. Abused victim Virginia Giuffre revealed in a 2016 deposition that Epstein told one of his victims, "Clinton likes them young," referring to girls.

According to the Independent, Bill Clinton was mentioned at least 73 times in the released documents. Giuffre also claimed to have once met the former president at Epstein’s Caribbean Island.

As Clinton continues to face the internet’s wrath, his spokesperson told CNN in a statement that he had lost contact with Jeffrey Epstein in the past 20 years. The representative also denied Clinton having any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.

The aforementioned documents were released to the public following U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska ruling that they could be released in full after January 1, 2024.

This came after Epstein was indicted on charges of trafficking of underage girls. He was found dead in 2019 while he was awaiting trial in prison.
