South America appears in 12 archive documents, including legal records repeating an allegation that Epstein abused underage girls from the region and a reference to Jean-Luc Brunel recruiting scouts there. The files do not establish travel to South America or a direct connection between Epstein and the continent as a whole.

The most substantive references are in legal documents and related emails describing allegations about girls from South America, and an email referring to Brunel’s scouts there; these are references in allegations and reporting, not travel records. Other emails use the continent in unrelated contexts, such as a military-command comparison and an energy chart. Ten of the 12 records are emails, including three automated newsletters sent to Epstein’s own Yahoo account; none show direct correspondence with South America as a person or organization.
