Jeffrey Epstein's access to the Clinton White House has been laid bare by visitor logs exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com, which reveal the pedophile visited at least 17 times during the former president's first few years in office.

Epstein, who died in 2019, visited Bill Clinton at the Executive Mansion over the course of three years with the first invitation coming just a month after his inauguration in January 1993.

The logs show the late financier showed up on 14 separate days, even making two visits in a single day on three different occasions.

Epstein was invited by some of Clinton's most senior advisers and aides, including one who later served as treasury secretary, according to records. 

The documents reveal that the vast majority of Epstein's visits stated that he was going to the West Wing, meaning there was a strong likelihood he was meeting Clinton.

The disclosure puts renewed scrutiny on Clinton's friendship with Epstein, who was known to have flown the former president on his private jet - known as the 'Lolita Express' - dozens of times after he left office.

When Epstein hanged himself after his arrest in 2019 Clinton claimed that he knew 'nothing about the terrible crimes' his friend carried out.

And while Epstein's crimes did not become public knowledge until his arrest in 2006, the visits to the White House would have occurred during the same time frame that his alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell was recruiting underage girls for him.

Maxwell is accused of being Epstein's procurer between 1994 and 2001, a period of time during which the pedophile appeared to have been gaining the trust of the most powerful man in the nation. 

Clinton's historic victory over George H.W. Bush in the 1992 election paved the way for him to serve two terms in the White House and become one of the most successful Democrats in history.

Meanwhile Epstein was still establishing himself as a financial manager and had recently left Towers Financial, a debt collection agency which would collapse in 1993 due to a $450million Ponzi scheme, the largest in the US at the time.

Steven Hoffenberg, who ran the company with Epstein, was jailed for 20 years. Epstein was never arrested nor charged.

Epstein met Maxwell in the early 1990s and the two briefly dated before she eventually became the manager of his Palm Beach mansion and, as prosecutors allege, top recruiter of minors.

Over the next decade he would acquire the trappings of a billionaire playboy: his private island in the Caribbean, a $75million mansion in New York which was the largest private residence in the city at the time, and his ranch in New Mexico.

He would also acquire the friendship of one William Jefferson Clinton.

Reports have claimed that Clinton was a self-made man and may have been drawn to Epstein because he was cut from a similar cloth.

As Epstein reportedly told his friends: 'I invest in people - be it politics or science. It's what I do.'

1993: EPSTEIN'S FIRST VISITS

The visitor logs were obtained by DailyMail.com from the Clinton Presidential Library under a series of FOIA requests.

They show that Epstein's first visit to the Clinton White House was on February 25, 1993 and the person who issued the invitation is listed as 'Rubin'. The location of the visit is listed as 'WW', or West Wing.

The most prominent Rubin in the White House at the time was Robert Rubin, who took up his position as director of the National Economic Council when Clinton took office.

Rubin was so favored by Clinton that he appointed him Treasury Secretary in January 1995.

Epstein's first visit took place a month after Clinton's inauguration in 1993. He stopped by again months later on September 29, 1993 with Maxwell (pictured) for a reception organized by the White House Historical Association after he donated $10,000

According to the visitor logs, Epstein's first visit to the Clinton White House was authorized by a person identified as 'Rubin', believed to be Robert Rubin (pictured) who was the president's director of the National Economic Council at the time and was later appointed treasury secretary

Rubin would go on to serve as chair of the Council on Foreign Relations, a think tank, between 2007 and 2017.

Epstein was a member of the CFR from 1995 until 2009 and donated $350,000 to the organization, money which it later gave to an organization which fights human trafficking.

The logs show that Epstein was admitted at 9:19am for his White House visit and Clinton's daily schedule for that day shows he had a meeting with Rubin at 1:45pm that day.

It is not clear if Epstein attended.

When DailyMail.com called Rubin's home, his wife said to 'call his office' before hanging up.

A spokeswoman for Rubin said: 'To the best of Mr. Rubin's recollection he never met or spoke with Mr. Epstein.'

Epstein's next visit was on September 29 to attend a reception organized by the White House Historical Association after he donated $10,000 to help renovate the building.

It was one of the earliest instances of Epstein using philanthropy to gain access to powerful men, a tactic he would deploy extensively later after his 2006 conviction for having sex with underage girls.

White House social secretary Ann Stock (pictured) who was listed in Epstein's little black book, was the reception's point of contact during his September 29, 1993 visit

Photos from the event show Epstein and Clinton shaking hands with both men smiling broadly.

In the background Maxwell, who attended with Epstein, can be seen looking intently at Clinton.

Another photo shows Clinton talking to Maxwell and Epstein together as guests mingle around them.

White House social secretary Ann Stock, who was listed in Epstein's little black book, was the reception's point of contact.

Stock would have been a useful ally for Epstein and when she left the role in August 1997, the former president said it was a 'personal loss' for him.

The person who approved the visit for Maxwell was 'Rathbone', which appears to be Linda Rathbone, who was special assistant to the chief of staff at the time.

Stock did not return messages asking for comment, and neither did Rathbone.

Epstein's third visit to the White House was on December 17 and the admitting authority was 'Mortman', which appears to be Lisa Mortman, staff assistant to the director of media affairs at the time.

Epstein entered the White House at 9:27am and Clinton's presidential schedule for that day shows that at 10:10am he and Hillary Clinton attended the announcement of a $500million grant to improve education from Walter Annenberg, the late publishing billionaire.

The grant was the largest of its kind at the time and Clinton praised it in front of a crowd of people, saying it 'couldn't have come at a better time'.

While it is not clear if Epstein attended the event, it is exactly the kind of nexus of philanthropy and power that he used to further his own ends.

Other attendees included Senator Ted Kennedy, Richard Riley, who was education secretary at the time, and education reformer Ted Sizer.

Epstein visited the White House on December 17, 1993 at 9:27am, less than 45 minutes before Bill and Hillary Clinton honored late publishing billionaire Walter Annenberg and Leonore Annenberg for their $500million grant to improve education (pictured)

Mortman did not return calls asking for comment.

Epstein's fourth visit to the Clinton White House was on December 21 and he was signed in by 'Kelley'.

No other details are given but, intriguingly, Clinton's mother was called Virginia Clinton Kelley and she was still alive at the time - the following month she died of cancer.

The visitor logs show that Epstein's destination was the West Wing and he arrived at 12:16pm.

That morning Clinton attended a memorial at Arlington National Cemetery for the victims of Pan Am Flight 103 and returned to the White House by 11:15pm.

He would remain in the Oval Office until 2pm for 'Lunch / Phone and Office Time', leaving a large window in which he could have met Epstein.

A DOZEN VISITS IN 1994

The vast bulk of Epstein's visits - 12 in total - came during 1994.

The first was on March 24 and was approved by 'Middleton', which was Mark Middleton, who at the time was special assistant to the president.

He was also assistant to the chief of staff, Thomas F. 'Mack' McLarty.

Middleton, who left the White House in February 1995, was accused of setting himself up as an international deal-maker, exactly the kind of person that would appeal to Epstein.

In 1996 an investigation by the White House found that Middleton had abused his access to impress business clients and he was barred from the executive mansion without senior approval.

Clinton's office previously issued a statement in regards to his travels on the plane and denied knowing anything about the financier's crimes

Middleton denied the claims.

The visitor logs show that on March 24, 1994, Epstein arrived at 3pm and by that time Clinton had already left for the day on a visit to Pope Air Force Base in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, later followed by a private event in Dallas, Texas.

The other name that features prominently on Epstein's 1994 visits is 'Ewing', which was Karen Ewing, who worked in the chief of staff's office.

A source said that she was involved in sending names of visitors to be cleared by the Secret Service and that Epstein was there to see Middleton, not her.

The logs show that some of Middleton's meetings with Epstein happened in room 176 which was in the old Executive Office building, not the White House.

The source said that Middleton asked for a meeting room next to the White
