Key takeaway: The manual documents the highly organized operation of Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan residence in October 2013. It divides the townhouse into cleaning zones, establishes strict staff language and appearance rules, prioritizes Epstein’s personal preferences, regulates guest arrivals, restricts photography, identifies transportation personnel, and describes extensive security and building systems. The record establishes household infrastructure and operational control. It does not prove that any listed employee knew about or participated in abuse, that the procedures facilitated trafficking, or that every instruction was implemented.
What Is This Record?
EFTA01733626 is an October 2013 household manual for Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan residence.
The document describes how the residence was expected to function when Epstein was present and absent. It covers housekeeping, clothing, food service, entertainment, building maintenance, grounds, transportation, safety, security, and guest care.
The manual consistently calls Epstein the “Principal.” Staff members are instructed to place his preferences above ordinary cleaning and maintenance schedules. When he is present, serving him and his guests becomes the household’s first priority.
The residence is divided into multiple housekeeping zones extending from two basement levels through the roof. Identified spaces include a security office, guest waiting room, dining room, library, master suite, massage room, gym, guest rooms, guest suites, kitchens, staff areas, mechanical spaces, and a sixth floor den and balcony.
The manual establishes formal expectations for staff behavior. Employees are instructed to answer Epstein with phrases such as “Yes, Sir” and “My Pleasure, Sir.” Similar language is prescribed for guests. Staff clothing changes depending on whether Epstein or guests are present.
Guest activity is carefully coordinated. Visitors are to be scheduled by name, date, and arrival time. Their arrivals are to be announced to Epstein through email, text, a note placed on a tray, or verbal notification. Guests must be escorted through the residence and are prohibited from taking photographs.
The document also identifies transportation arrangements involving private and commercial aviation, designated drivers, and household vehicles. Exact personal telephone numbers, vehicle identifiers, and other operational details are not reproduced here.
The manual is important because it maps the administrative structure surrounding Epstein’s Manhattan residence after his 2008 conviction. However, household organization is not itself evidence of criminal conduct. The record must be evaluated alongside court filings, survivor testimony, staff interviews, calendars, financial records, and other evidence.

What the Record Contains
Title, Confidentiality Notice, and Ownership Claim
The cover identifies the document as the October 2013 household manual for Epstein’s New York residence.
Every page carries a confidentiality notice stating that the material is intended only for an authorized recipient and is the property of Jeffrey Epstein. The footer also contains a copyright notice in Epstein’s name.
This language demonstrates an effort to control circulation of the manual. It does not establish attorney client privilege, make disclosure unlawful by itself, or prove that Epstein personally wrote the material.
Table of Contents
The table of contents lists location, residence, residents, principal preferences, principal schedules, staff, staff duties, staff schedules, vendors, and areas.
The body does not follow that outline as a polished publication would. Some listed subjects are incorporated into broader sections rather than appearing under matching headings. Numerous references to material “to be attached” suggest that the manual was incomplete or intended to be supplemented.
Location and Service Standards
The manual identifies Epstein’s East 71st Street townhouse and supplies geographic and administrative information about the location.
It then states preferred forms of address:
“Yes, Sir.”
“My Pleasure, Sir.”
Staff are told to answer Epstein’s questions specifically and end their responses with “Sir.” Similar rules apply when addressing guests.
The prescribed language establishes a formal and hierarchical service environment centered on Epstein’s authority.
Housekeeping Zones
The residence is divided into nine operational levels:
- Second basement level
- First basement level
- First floor
- Second floor
- Third floor
- Fourth floor
- Fifth floor
- Sixth floor and balcony
- Roof
The manual assigns one or two days to the cleaning of each zone and directs staff to follow daily, weekly, six month, and annual schedules.
It identifies Lynn and Tess as performing housekeeping. Vendors may be hired for specialized work involving rugs, carpets, drapes, windows, art, floors, and furniture.
Rooms and Functional Areas
The manual provides a detailed room inventory.
The basement areas include mechanical, laundry, staff, kitchen, hallway, and exit spaces.
The first floor includes entrance areas, a security office, guest waiting room, an oval office, bathrooms, dining room, pantries, kitchen, closets, elevator access, and service areas.
The second floor includes a living room, library, dining area, kitchen, bathrooms, and stair access.
The third floor contains the master bedroom, sitting room, bathing and dressing areas, closets, and a massage room.
The fourth floor contains a gym, bathing area, and two guest rooms with bathrooms.
The fifth floor contains an office, two guest suites, mechanical space, and storage.
The sixth floor contains a den, balcony, kitchen, bathroom, hallway, mechanical space, and storage.
The manual’s identification of a massage room establishes that such a room existed within the residence. It does not establish how the room was used on any particular occasion.
Cleaning and Inspection Procedures
The manual contains detailed instructions for cleaning bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, dining areas, common spaces, windows, doors, elevators, stairs, books, clothes, shoes, silverware, glassware, furniture, rugs, carpets, portraits, and other items.
Staff are directed to report damaged, missing, displaced, stained, leaking, or unusual items to the Director of Residences in writing. Email is repeatedly identified as an acceptable reporting method.
Employees are also expected to verify clocks, telephones, remote controls, radios, lighting, appliances, windows, curtains, plants, and security settings.
These procedures create the possibility that written maintenance and damage reports once existed. The manual does not include those reports.
Procedures Before Epstein’s Arrival
Beginning three days before Epstein arrives, ordinary zone cleaning and separate project work are supposed to stop. Staff must instead prepare the entire residence for his return.
The manual directs employees to restore rooms, inspect household items, check communication systems, and confirm that appropriate security systems are activated or deactivated.
This section demonstrates that staff schedules were structured around Epstein’s travel and physical presence.
Procedures When Epstein Is Present
The manual states:
“When the Principal is in residence, serving him and his guests is to be the first priority.”
Housecleaning, laundry, and other work must be adjusted to avoid interfering with Epstein or his visitors.
The manual describes regular morning, midday, evening, and closing responsibilities. It also distinguishes tasks that should be postponed until Epstein leaves.
Staff Clothing and Presentation
When Epstein is absent, employees may dress casually but are expected to remain neat and wear clean clothes.
When Epstein or guests are present, male staff members are instructed to wear suits and ties. Female staff members are instructed to wear black pants and white shirts or blouses.
The rules emphasize a formal visual presentation whenever Epstein is entertaining visitors.
Epstein’s Clothing
The executive housekeeper is responsible for Epstein’s clothes, dressing room, drawers, and closets.
The manual anticipates separate lists of his preferred sizes, brands, and colors, but those attachments do not appear in the produced document.
This is one of several indications that the manual was either unfinished or separated from its supporting materials.
Food and Daily Service
The manual says Epstein preferred eating at home and seldom went out while staying at the residence.
It provides a detailed breakfast service scheduled for 6:30 AM, including his preferred muffin, coffee, water, tableware, and presentation on a silver tray.
Lunch and dinner depend on his requests and appetite. Meals might be prepared by the executive housekeeper, ordered from nearby restaurants, or prepared by a cook brought from France.
Food is to be presented with silverware and linen. Snacks must remain available throughout the day.
Guest Dining and Entertainment
The manual states that Epstein preferred having guests visit him. Entertainment was usually casual, involved small groups, and often included food served in the dining room or living room.
Staff members must know the date, time, location, number of guests, names, preferences, dislikes, and allergies before a meal.
Epstein is assigned a particular seat at the end of the dining table near a telephone stand. The guest of honor is placed beside him.
The manual specifies table settings, serving styles, napkin colors, silverware, glassware, and the number of servers required.
For meals involving “important guests,” a cook from France might be flown to New York.
The description documents the infrastructure used to host visitors. It does not identify those visitors or establish why they were invited.
Vendors and Restaurants
The manual lists grocery stores, restaurants, building contractors, maintenance companies, equipment manufacturers, and emergency service providers.
The named food vendors include Citarella, Dean and DeLuca, Grace’s Marketplace, Caravaggio Ristorante, Emack and Bolio’s, Pick A Bagel, Sant Ambroeus, and Scalinatella.
Their appearance in the manual documents that household personnel were directed to use or consider those businesses. It does not imply that any vendor knew about or participated in Epstein’s crimes.
Building Maintenance
The townhouse is described as having extensive mechanical, electrical, ventilation, lighting, power, fire, plumbing, elevator, climate, and security equipment.
The systems were monitored through a building maintenance system. The manual provides daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal, six month, and annual inspection schedules.
Richard Barnett is identified as the certified and licensed mechanical engineer responsible for maintenance and grounds.
The document includes operational information about chillers, air handlers, humidifiers, pumps, heat exchangers, steam systems, generators, water systems, chemical treatment, elevators, exhaust fans, lighting, and other equipment.
Detailed security and mechanical instructions are not reproduced here because they are unnecessary to understanding the evidentiary significance of the manual.
Grounds
The manual describes limited exterior grounds because the residence sits on a city street.
Staff must clean and inspect the front entrances, steps, sidewalk, service access, and rear basement area.
Travel and Transportation
The manual states that Epstein traveled to and from New York using private or commercial aircraft.
It identifies Teterboro Airport and Long Island MacArthur Airport in Islip. It also references an aviation terminal in Hawthorne.
A Gulfstream aircraft, a pilot identified as Larry, household vehicles, garage arrangements, and designated drivers are listed.
The named drivers are JoJo, Janusz, Mark, and Jenifer.
The manual requires drivers to provide copies of their licenses and complete garage registration through a residence employee.
Exact telephone numbers, aircraft identifiers, vehicle identifiers, and garage information are not reproduced because they are not necessary to explain the record.
Safety and Security
The manual states that Epstein did not require personal security while at the residence or during transportation.
The townhouse nevertheless had extensive security, fire, and smoke systems. Staff members were expected to maintain CPR certification. First aid supplies, a defibrillator, and fire extinguishers were kept on site.
The manual calls for quarterly inspection of Epstein’s safe room.
A safe room and security systems are legitimate features of some luxury residences. Their existence does not prove concealment, surveillance abuse, or criminal activity.
Guest Protocol
All visitors are to be scheduled by name, date, and time. Meals must be identified in schedules distributed through email.
Guests must be greeted at the main entrance, assisted with personal items, and either seated or taken to the designated meeting area.
Every arrival must be reported to Epstein through email, text, a note placed on a tray, or direct verbal notice.
Visitors waiting for Epstein must be offered refreshments and checked regularly. They must be personally escorted when joining him and personally assisted when leaving.
The final instruction states:
“Guests are not allowed to take any photographs of the residence.”
The restriction establishes a privacy and information control policy. The document does not explain the reason for it.
Key Evidence Points
- The manual documents an organized household system. The residence operated through assigned zones, schedules, written reporting, staff roles, vendors, transportation arrangements, and formal guest procedures.
- Epstein is consistently identified as the Principal. His location, preferences, appetite, schedule, guests, and requests determine how staff work is performed.
- Staff language is prescribed. Employees are instructed to use formal responses ending with “Sir” when addressing Epstein.
- Service takes priority when Epstein is present. Cleaning and maintenance schedules must be changed to accommodate him and his guests.
- The townhouse contained a massage room. It appears within the third floor master suite area. Its inclusion establishes the room’s existence, not how it was used.
- Guest activity was scheduled and communicated. Visitors were recorded by name, date, and time, and their arrivals were reported directly to Epstein.
- Guests were escorted through the residence. Staff controlled visitor movement from arrival through departure.
- Photography was prohibited. The manual expressly bars guests from photographing the residence.
- The household maintained extensive communication systems. Staff checked telephone and email messages and used email, text, written notes, and verbal reports.
- The residence contained extensive security infrastructure. The manual references security systems, a security office, alarms, a building management system, and a safe room.
- Private travel was integrated into household operations. The manual identifies airports, a private aircraft, a pilot, vehicles, and designated drivers.
- The document names staff members but does not define culpability. A name in an employment or contractor record is evidence of a work role, not proof of knowledge or participation in criminal conduct.
- The manual appears incomplete. It repeatedly refers to schedules, photographs, recipes, emergency information, inventories, clothing preferences, and other materials that were supposed to be attached.
- The manual postdates Epstein’s 2008 conviction. It demonstrates continued formal operation of the Manhattan residence in 2013, several years after Epstein became a registered sex offender.
- The record does not identify guests. Although it requires guest schedules, those schedules are not included in the produced manual.
What the Record Does and Does Not Prove
What It Establishes
- A household manual dated October 2013 existed for Epstein’s Manhattan residence.
- The manual identifies itself as confidential and as the property of Jeffrey Epstein.
- The townhouse was divided into detailed housekeeping and maintenance zones.
- The property included a security office, waiting room, dining areas, offices, guest suites, gym, massage room, kitchens, staff spaces, mechanical areas, and a safe room.
- Household work was organized around whether Epstein was present.
- Serving Epstein and his guests was designated as the first priority when he was in residence.
- Staff appearance, language, schedules, and reporting practices were formally regulated.
- The manual identifies Lynn and Tess as performing housekeeping.
- It identifies Richard Barnett in a senior maintenance role.
- It identifies Larry as a pilot and JoJo, Janusz, Mark, and Jenifer as drivers.
- Epstein’s private aviation and vehicle arrangements were integrated into residence operations.
- Guests were supposed to be scheduled by name, date, and arrival time.
- Guest arrivals were supposed to be reported directly to Epstein.
- Guests were escorted within the residence.
- Guests were prohibited from photographing the property.
- The manual required written reporting of repairs, damage, and missing or misplaced items.
- Email was an accepted method for household reporting and schedule distribution.
- Several anticipated attachments are absent from the produced record.
- The Manhattan household maintained a substantial administrative, service, technical, transportation, and security infrastructure in 2013.
What It Does Not Establish
- The manual does not identify its author.
- The copyright notice does not prove Epstein personally drafted or approved every instruction.
- It does not establish who received a copy.
- It does not establish that every procedure was implemented.
- It does not establish how consistently staff followed the instructions.
- It does not identify visitors to the residence.
- It does not include the guest schedules required by the manual.
- It does not prove that the massage room was used for abuse.
- It does not prove that guest scheduling facilitated trafficking.
- It does not prove that the photography prohibition was intended to conceal criminal activity.
- It does not prove that the safe room or security systems had a criminal purpose.
- It does not establish that any named employee knew about Epstein’s abuse or trafficking.
- It does not establish that any vendor knew how the residence was used.
- It does not establish that children never entered the property. Its statement that Epstein had no children “to care for” concerns household care responsibilities.
- It does not establish the identities of the “important guests” referenced in the culinary section.
- It does not establish who served as Director of Residences or executive housekeeper.
- It does not contain survivor testimony.
- It does not contain photographs of visitors or household activities.
- It does not contain financial records showing staff compensation or vendor payments.
- It does not establish that criminal conduct occurred at the residence in October 2013.
- It does not establish criminal liability for any person other than what separate legal proceedings and evidence may show.

People and Entities Appearing in the Record
Jeffrey Epstein
Jeffrey Epstein is called the Principal throughout the manual.
His preferences control household schedules, staff presentation, meal service, guest seating, cleaning priorities, transportation, and communication procedures.
The document was created years after his 2008 Florida conviction and sex offender registration. It shows that his Manhattan household continued to operate through a formal service structure.
Richard Barnett
Richard Barnett is identified as a certified and licensed mechanical engineer responsible for maintenance and grounds.
His inclusion establishes a professional role connected to the residence. The manual does not accuse him of criminal conduct or show that he had knowledge of abuse.
Lynn and Tess
Lynn and Tess are identified as household workers responsible for housekeeping.
Only first names appear in the relevant passage. The document does not provide enough information to identify them responsibly or determine the full terms of their employment.
Larry
Larry is identified as the pilot associated with the aircraft listed in the transportation section.
The manual does not provide a surname in that passage or establish which flights he operated during the relevant period.
JoJo
JoJo is identified as Epstein’s usual designated driver in New York and as the person responsible for part of the residence’s garage registration process.
The use of a first name or nickname does not establish a complete identity by itself.
Janusz
Janusz is listed as one of the available drivers. A separate FBI interview record concerning Janusz Banasiak is preserved as EFTA00144187.
The shared first name makes the separate interview relevant, but EFTA01733626 alone does not establish that the driver was Janusz Banasiak without corroborating personnel evidence.
Mark and Jenifer
Mark and Jenifer are listed as drivers. The record provides no surnames and does not establish their precise employment dates, responsibilities, or identities.
Household Vendors
The manual names numerous stores, restaurants, contractors, manufacturers, and public service providers.
Their appearance reflects ordinary purchasing, food service, maintenance, transportation, and emergency planning. Inclusion in the manual does not establish knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.
United States Department of Justice
The United States Department of Justice published the manual through Data Set 10.
The production establishes the document’s inclusion in the federal release. It does not provide a complete chain of custody or explain where investigators found it.
Timeline Significance
2005
An earlier household manual is preserved as EFTA00075882. That record provides a basis for comparing the rules, staff expectations, privacy controls, and household hierarchy used at Epstein related properties.
The two manuals should not be treated as identical. They were produced in different years and may concern different residences, employees, or management structures.
2008
Epstein pleaded guilty in Florida to state prostitution related offenses, including an offense involving a minor. He was required to register as a sex offender.
This legal history was already public when the 2013 New York household manual was created.
October 2013
The manual documents an active and formally organized Manhattan household.
It describes private aviation, drivers, guest service, staff clothing, food preparation, security procedures, and maintenance across the townhouse.
2013 Context
The manual demonstrates that Epstein continued maintaining a residence equipped to receive guests and support extensive domestic operations after his conviction.
It does not identify the guests who visited that month or establish what occurred during their visits.
July 2019
Federal prosecutors charged Epstein with sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy. The federal indictment alleged that he sexually exploited and abused dozens of minor girls at his Manhattan and Palm Beach residences from approximately 2002 through 2005.
The conduct charged in that indictment predates the 2013 manual. The indictment provides legal context for the residence’s significance but does not establish that the manual itself facilitated the charged conduct.
Federal agents later searched the Manhattan townhouse following Epstein’s 2019 arrest. The household manual helps researchers understand the property’s internal organization but should not be used to reconstruct the search without the actual warrant materials and evidence inventories.
January 30, 2026
The Justice Department announced the publication of additional Epstein records. EFTA01733626 appears within Data Set 10 of that release.
Related Evidence
EFTA00075882
EFTA00075882 is an earlier Epstein household manual.
It is important for comparing household hierarchy, staff conduct rules, privacy expectations, guest procedures, and language concerning discretion. Differences between the two records may reveal changes in property management practices over time.
See EFTA00075882: Epstein Household Manual.
EFTA00144187
EFTA00144187 is an FBI interview concerning Janusz Banasiak, a longtime member of Epstein’s household staff.
Because EFTA01733626 lists a driver named Janusz, the interview may provide relevant context. The first name alone is not sufficient to treat the two references as conclusively identical.
See EFTA00144187: FBI Interview of Janusz Banasiak.
2019 Federal Indictment
The United States v. Jeffrey Epstein indictment alleges that Epstein sexually exploited minor girls at his Manhattan and Palm Beach residences between approximately 2002 and 2005.
The indictment establishes the Manhattan property’s importance to the federal prosecution. It does not allege that the October 2013 manual was itself part of the charged conspiracy.
Guest and Calendar Records
The manual requires visitors to be scheduled by name, date, and arrival time. Epstein’s released calendars and appointment records may therefore be compared with the manual to understand how guest procedures operated in practice.
A calendar entry establishes scheduling, not attendance, knowledge, or wrongdoing. Each visitor record requires independent verification.
Transportation Records
The manual identifies private aviation, airports, drivers, and vehicles as part of residence operations.
Flight logs, pilot records, airport records, vehicle records, and driver interviews may clarify how Epstein moved between his properties. A transportation record proves movement only to the extent supported by its entries and authentication.
Reliability and Limitations
EFTA01733626 has strong evidentiary value as a contemporaneous household operations document dated October 2013.
Its detailed room descriptions, schedules, equipment lists, vendors, staff roles, travel procedures, and guest rules support the conclusion that it was created for practical household use rather than public presentation.
Several limitations affect interpretation.
First, the document does not identify its author. The statement that it is Epstein’s property and carries his copyright does not prove that he personally drafted it.
Second, the manual may represent proposed standards rather than actual practice. Researchers need staff testimony, emails, schedules, payroll records, work orders, and other evidence to determine implementation.
Third, numerous promised attachments are absent. These include photographs, inventories, preference lists, recipes, emergency information, fire escape plans, and other schedules.
Fourth, the manual includes typographical errors, inconsistent numbering, unfinished language, and references to information still needing completion. These features suggest that the produced copy may have been a working document.
Fifth, household staff members are often identified only by first name or nickname. Those references should not be converted into full identities without corroboration.
Sixth, the manual contains sensitive operational information. Exact contact information, security procedures, vehicle identifiers, and similar details are not necessary for a public evidence summary.
Seventh, the existence of a massage room, security system, safe room, guest list procedure, or photography prohibition does not prove criminal use. Those features become evidentially significant only when connected to separate testimony or records.
Eighth, the document does not include survivor accounts. Its significance lies in the infrastructure it documents, not in proving any individual allegation.
No directly relevant EpsteinWiki sleuth Substack investigation was located that analyzes this specific manual page by page. The factual analysis therefore relies on the complete primary document, related EFTA evidence, and official court sources.
Survivor Safety and Privacy Review
The manual contains household infrastructure and staff information rather than a survivor statement. Nevertheless, it concerns a residence identified in criminal allegations and survivor accounts.
This article does not publish private telephone numbers, exact geographic coordinates, personal email addresses, license information, vehicle identifiers, or detailed security instructions found in the manual.
The townhouse is described at the street level because its identity as Epstein’s publicly documented Manhattan residence is central to the evidence. Unnecessary operational details are omitted.
Named staff members are not labeled as enablers, accomplices, recruiters, or witnesses unless separate evidence supports that classification. Employment within an Epstein property does not prove knowledge of criminal conduct.
The existence of a massage room is reported because it appears in the document. The article does not assume that every massage, visitor, employee, or use of that room involved abuse.
Guest procedures are relevant to understanding household control. They do not justify speculative identification of visitors or survivors.
Any future attempt to connect a person to the manual should require corroborating records and a separate privacy review, especially when a name may belong to a survivor, minor, household employee, or private individual.
Why This Record Matters
EFTA01733626 provides a detailed view of the infrastructure that supported Epstein’s Manhattan residence.
The document shows that the townhouse did not operate as an informal private home. It relied on structured staff roles, written schedules, controlled guest movement, specialized maintenance, private transportation, food service, security systems, and reporting procedures.
Epstein’s presence determined the household’s priorities. Employees were instructed to change their work, clothing, language, and schedules depending on whether he or his guests were present.
The guest rules are particularly significant. Visitors were expected to appear on schedules, be greeted and escorted, and have their arrival reported directly to Epstein. Photography was prohibited.
These procedures suggest that household staff, calendars, emails, telephone messages, security records, and transportation records could contain information useful for reconstructing who entered the residence and when.
The manual also demonstrates continuity. Epstein maintained an elaborate and professionally managed Manhattan household in 2013, years after his Florida conviction and sex offender registration.
At the same time, the evidentiary boundary must remain clear. Operational control is not the same as proof of trafficking. A massage room is not proof of abuse. Security is not proof of concealment. Employment is not proof of complicity.
The manual matters because it maps the system surrounding the property. Other records are required to determine how that system intersected with Epstein’s crimes, social network, travel, financial operations, and treatment of survivors.
