U.S. authorities on Friday released the latest cache of files related to the investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The release includes two FBI emails from July 2019 that mention 10 "co-conspirators," marking what are perhaps the most significant documents published in the case so far.

The files contains references to numerous high-profile figures, including Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and British billionaire Richard Branson.

Here are the consequences prompted by the latest release so far.

Malaysian Prime Minister

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has denied any links to the late financier Epstein after his name was dropped in a 14-year-old e-mail exchange.

"Just today, I found out that some outsider wanted to meet and even 'dropped' my name in an e-mail linked to the Epstein case," he said in a brief Facebook post on February 1.

"Thank Allah, as mentioned in that e-mail, it's been more than a decade, and I have absolutely no connection whatsoever with any of the parties exchanging those e-mails – especially Epstein."

UK ex-ambassador

Former British ambassador to Washington Peter Mandelson quit the Labour Party on Sunday, seeking to avoid causing it "further embarrassment" after newly released U.S. documents revived scrutiny of his connection to Epstein.

Mandelson, 72, who was sacked as Britain's ambassador to the United States last year over his ties to Epstein, allegedly received several payments from Epstein in the early 2000s, according to documents released on Friday by the U.S. Department of Justice and reported in British media on Sunday.

"Allegations which I believe to be false that he made financial payments to me 20 years ago, and of which I have no record or recollection, need investigating by me," Mandelson wrote in a letter to Labour general secretary Hollie Ridley.

LA Olympic chief

Los Angeles Olympics chief Casey Wasserman apologized on Saturday after decades-old flirty emails between him and Epstein's jailed former girlfriend appeared in the files.

Wasserman, the chairman of the organizing committee for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, said his 2003 email exchanges with Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence for trafficking underage girls for Epstein, took place before her crimes were known.

He said he had "never had a personal or business relationship with Jeffrey Epstein," adding that he was "terribly sorry for having any association with either of them."

Elon Musk

The files contain numerous e-mail exchanges between Epstein and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk.

In November 2012, Epstein sent Musk an e-mail asking: "How many people will you be for the heli to island."

Musk replied: "Probably just Talulah and me. What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?"

Musk said in a post on X, responding to the revelations, he "was well aware that some e-mail correspondence with (Epstein) could be misinterpreted and used by detractors to smear my name."

"I don't care about that, but what I do care about is that we at least attempt to prosecute those who committed serious crimes with Epstein, especially regarding heinous exploitation of underage girls," Musk wrote.
