jmail-world — Epstein Archive Search & Analysis

Search and analyze Jeffrey Epstein's email archive, iMessages, documents, photos, and people on jmail.world.

When to Use

• Researching Epstein connections and communications
• Finding emails between specific people
• Exploring iMessage conversations
• Analyzing communication networks and timelines
• Looking up people identified in photos
• Searching documents (DOJ releases, court records)

Data Access — Two Methods

1. Web Search API (quick lookups)

GET https://jmail.world/api/emails/search?q=QUERY&limit=50&page=1&source=all&from=NAME

No auth needed. Use web_fetch or curl. Good for quick keyword searches.

2. DuckDB + Parquet (deep analysis)

All datasets served as static Parquet files from https://data.jmail.world/v1/. No API key, no rate limit, no auth.

Use the included scripts:

# Full-text email search (Web API)
bash scripts/jmail-search.sh "query text"
bash scripts/jmail-search.sh "scopolamine" --from "Epstein" --limit 20

# DuckDB queries (local Parquet, no rate limits)
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh search "flight manifest"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh person "Ghislaine Maxwell"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh imessages "ghislaine-maxwell"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh imessage-search "AfD"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh imessage-search "Merkel" --from "Bannon"

bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh top-senders
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh people
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh documents "flight"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photos "person-name"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photo-search "pool"

Downloading Files

Universal Download (any document, email, or photo)

# Download by document ID — auto-detects type and source
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh download "EFTA02406146"                    # DOJ email PDF
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh download "HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_034601"          # House Oversight photo
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh download "COURT_giuffre-115cv07433_1"      # Court document
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh download "vol00009-efta00462570-pdf"       # DOJ volume scan
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh download "EFTA02406146" ./output-dir      # Custom output dir

Supported sources:

ID Pattern	Type	Format
EFTA*	DOJ emails & photos	PDF
vol*	DOJ volume scans	PDF
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_*	House Oversight photos	JPG (direct)
COURT_giuffre*	Giuffre court docs	PDF

Photo Search & Download

# Search photos by AI-generated description
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photo-search "swimming pool"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photo-search "forced entry"

# Download a specific photo (DOJ: extracts PNG from PDF, HO: direct JPG)
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photo-download "EFTA00000002-0.png"
bash scripts/jmail-duckdb.sh photo-download "HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_034601.JPG" ./output

DOJ photos are stored as single-page PDFs — the download command automatically extracts the embedded image as PNG using pdfimages. House Oversight photos are direct JPGs. If pdfimages is not installed, DOJ photos are saved as PDF.

Security

• SQL injection prevention: All user input is whitelist-sanitized (alphanumeric + safe chars only). SQL meta-characters, operators, and keywords are stripped before query construction.
• Path traversal prevention: Parquet filenames and document IDs are validated against strict patterns before use in file operations.
• Read-only queries: All DuckDB operations are SELECT on read_parquet() — no writes, no code execution, no network access beyond the cached Parquet files.
• Data source: All data comes from jmail.world's public Parquet files and assets.getkino.com (DOJ document mirror). No private APIs or credentials involved.

Requirements

• DuckDB (duckdb CLI) — must be installed manually (apt install duckdb / brew install duckdb / duckdb.org)
• curl — for web search API and downloading Parquet files
• python3 — for URL encoding in search script
• pdfimages (optional, for photo-download PNG extraction) — apt install poppler-utils
• jq (optional, for JSON formatting)
