Clarence Thomas hit with astonishing accusation in Epstein files
Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was named in an allegation sent by email to two federal judges and discussed last August by federal prosecutors in New York, the Justice Department’s Friday release of around 3.5 million Jeffrey Epstein files has revealed.
Given the sheer volume of Epstein-related materials released by the DOJ, many of the documents contain unverified, uncorroborated allegations that do not constitute evidence, and do not establish wrongdoing. Thomas is not facing any criminal charges or investigations related to the allegation.
Sent to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and addressed to two federal judges, the allegation sees a person claiming to be an Epstein victim accuse Johnny Martorano – a notorious hitman and mobster who’s admitted to killing 20 people – of rape. The purported victim also alleged that Martorano – who struck a plea deal in 1999 to serve only 12 years for his crimes – was in communication with Thomas.
“John Martorano was the man who raped me and took a picture of me naked and said ‘let's take a picture for Clarence Thomas,’” the individual wrote.
It then went on to accuse Thomas of sexually assaulting her when she was a child. "This is also in my CIA file because a few people have asked me if I remembered, but I couldn't remember much of my childhood because I was drugged so much," the email read.
There was no evidence offered to back up the allegation.
The emailed allegation was forwarded last August by prosecutor Robert Sobelman to Kristen Warden, whose LinkedIn profile says works for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and formerly worked in the DOJ in the Office of the Inspector General.
“Kristen, pursuant to the standard protocol in this case, please see below and attached,” Sobelman wrote to Warden in an Aug. 12 email, along with the accuser's lengthy accusation.
“Is this the same complainant from the guardians you were drafting?” Warden wrote back just moments later, suggesting the accuser was already familiar to her or her office.
“Yes, it's from the same complainant,” Sobelman wrote back later that afternoon.
