Tom Barrack, the founder of Colony Capital (now DigitalBridge Group), current U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, and chair of President Trump's 2017 Inaugural Committee, appears 544 times across documents released by the Department of Justice in the Epstein case. The documentary record reveals a relationship far deeper and more sustained than has been publicly understood ; spanning from at least 2000 through 2018, persisting robustly after Epstein's 2008 sex offender conviction, and encompassing social, political, and business dimensions.
Barrack appears in Epstein's black book with five phone numbers.
