A letter released on Tuesday, December 22, 2025, appears to be between Jeffrey Epstein and Larry Nassar, the U.S. gymnastics team doctor serving life-long prison sentences for sexually abusing young athletes.
As has widely been reported, the letter postmarked August 13, 2019, states, “Dear L.N. as you know by now, I have taken the ‘short route’ home. Good Luck! We share one thing … our love & caring for young ladies at the hope they’d reach their full potential.”
Donald Trump was president at the time, and the letter goes on to say, “Our president also shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to ‘grab snatch,’ whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system. Life is unfair. Yours, J. Epstein.”
Return to sender
Correctional officers at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in Manhattan found Epstein dead in his jail cell on August 10, 2019. The letter to Nassar, sent from the MCC, is the first known correspondence between Nassar and Epstein, who previously had no known relationship. Epstein’s handwriting verification has not been confirmed publicly.
The Epstein-Nassar letter is also mentioned in FBI documents as having been received but returned to the sender because Nassar was no longer at the address. It arrived back at the MCC after Epstein died.
As news of the Epstein-Nassar letter spread, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer wrote on X, “Disgusting and abhorrent – and just the tip of the iceberg. Everything must be brought to light.”
Trump rape allegations surface
At the same time, the heavily redacted and incomplete Epstein documents also reference an October 2020 FBI report from Trump’s former limousine driver reporting that a woman told him she had been “raped” by Epstein and Trump in a limousine in Texas in 1995. When encouraged to contact the authorities, the woman said, “I can’t they will kill me,” according to the man.
The woman whose name is redacted in the document was later found dead in Oklahoma from a gunshot wound to the head, in what the coroner ruled was a suicide.
As the documents were released, the Department of Justice wrote on X in part, “Some of these documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election.”
The post added, “To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already.” Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein.
