An invoice featured in the latest batch of Epstein files, reveals that Jeffrey ordered 330 gallons of concentrated sulphuric acid to be delivered to his paedophile island in 2018. The order was placed on the same day the FBI opened a new child-trafficking case against him:
Other documents in the latest US government release suggest that Epstein used sulphuric acid for water treatment. However, the acid has also notoriously been used by criminal gangs to dissolve bodies. Orders for large quantities of acid would, of course, need a pretext.
The US justice department (DOJ) has admitted that evidence is it still withholding includes footage of torture, rape and murder. Many victims of Epstein and his twisted circle have never been found. Files in the DOJ release even accuse Epstein and his guests of eating some victims.

Wouldn’t this just be stocking up on pool chemicals or something? I’m sure nefarious things were happening in the pool, but the chemicals themselves doesn’t feel newsworthy.
It’s used in desalination plants, which the island had.
The “dispose of bodies” theory is dumb as sulpheric acid is damn near useless to disolve a body. Also, it’s an island: there’s a perfectly good ocean to dump a body in right there.
Desalination is a good explanation too. The point really, is that just ordering certain chemicals in bulk isn’t necessarily shady even if they sound scary.
Wtf? No…this was sulfuric acid, and 330 GALLONS of it. How much CYANURIC acid do you think pools take? Did you not even read the article, or…?

Fine, but I promise you no pool requires 330 gallons.
That’s hard to say. It might be a few years’ supply for a large pool and due to the shipping costs it made more sense to get this amount. 330 gal isn’t all that much really (an Olympic sized pool is 660 000 gal for example). Some articles I’ve seen for this story use a tanker truck picture which is crazy misleading as it’s more like one of these tanks which I often see in multiples in the back of a 1-ton pickup.
This isn’t like the P Diddy baby oil where it was a crazy weird amount with no other purpose than something freaky. The acid alone isn’t necessarily evidence of anything nefarious or newsworthy; people just watch breaking bad so think acid is only for dissolving bodies or something, and the news sites feed into that to get clicks. Just offering up calorie-free content instead of anything of actual substance.
Now, if there was evidence they used the acid for something bad? Then that’s something.
330 gallons fits precisely in 6 55 gallon drums.
I mean, my chlorine tablets keep chemicals pretty steady. The only time I’ve ever needed anything else was the one time I changed all the water, and that was like cups, so I can’t imagine even Olympic stadiums ever using that much.
