Jeffrey Epstein sent money to Mandelson’s husband after prison release, emails suggest

Child sex offender sent thousands of pounds to Reinaldo Avila da Silva, according to documents published by US justice department

Jeffrey Epstein sent thousands of pounds in bank transfers after his release from prison in 2009 to Peter Mandelson's husband, according to emails published by the US Department of Justice on Friday.

The latest documents raise fresh questions about Epstein's relationship with Mandelson, who was sacked as the UK's ambassador to Washington when details of his support for the disgraced financier emerged in September.
