A photo taken on Jeffrey Epstein's private island released yesterday by the House Oversight Committee has left a number of onlookers deeply disturbed.
Democrats on the Committee divulged the latest documents related to the late sex offender's heinous crimes on Wednesday (3 Dec), following a vote.
After sharing unnerving images and video footage online, a spokesperson for the left-wing group wrote: "See for yourself. We won’t stop fighting until we end this cover-up and deliver justice for the survivors."

According to Sky News, Robert Garcia, a ranking member of the group, also added: "We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and to help piece together the full picture of Epstein's horrific crimes.
"We won't stop fighting until we deliver justice for the survivors."
One video released shows a compilation of images, including a 'No Trespassing' sign, an en-suite bedroom, and outdoor swimming pool.

Another room included contains a large chalkboard, bearing the words 'political', 'plots', 'deception', 'power', 'truth', and 'music', all of which had been scratched in, alongside a handful of indecipherable expressions.
As we say, however, there's one particular photo that has seemingly left viewers shocked to the core.
Taken inside one of Epstein's properties, is shows a room with white walls, featuring several dressers and sets to drawers.
A yellow chair can also be seen situated right in the centre, which appears to have belonged to a dentist, complete with reclining leg rest, and a lamp. Odd, given that prior to his 2019 suicide, Epstein worked as a businessman and media mogul, and not a dentist.

Arguably the most peculiar aspect of the space, however, is a series of masks that litter each of the walls visible, which appear to be casts of men's' faces.
None of the men appear to have discernible features, though, making their identities (if they're based on real people) hard to pin down. This hasn't stopped one particular question being raised, however, with a number of social media users voicing their horror online.
"Who are these guys on the wall?" one demanded.

A second added: "Masks? I can’t even begin to fathom."
Another wrote: "Well this is creepy AF."
"What could [these] have been used for?" a fourth questioned.
Of the discovery, a fifth continued: "The stuff of nightmares."

Another aspect of the video focussed in on a spa, which included a massage room and a landline phone, which came with several speed-dial contacts. Though several names had been redacted, visible titles included 'Larry Cell,' NY Office,' 'Darren Off' and 'Darren Cell', among a handful of others.
Epstein boasted numerous properties on his private islands, Little Saint James and Great Saint James, where he was said to have groomed and abused hordes of young girls - including some as young as 14.
The paedophile also regularly invited a number of A-list stars and powerful politicians to his extravagant residences, prior to taking his own life while awaiting trial in New York on sex trafficking charges.
