Jeffrey Epstein's 'top recruiter' has been dragged back in the spotlight after new non -closed evidence documents demonstrates that she apparently collected large amounts of cash from the convicted pedophile.
Under the long-awaited 'Epstein Files' that was released by Attorney General Pam Bondi last week, a list of proof suggested that the Chatter Finer had reserved $ 21,000 for Sarah Kellen in 2008, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Kellen was known as the old assistant of Epstein and the alleged recruiter of young girls in his operation with sex trade and is accused of several lawsuits of arranging 'massages' and supervising minor girls to the room where they were abused.
She received immunity during the first criminal case from Epstein, which made him make a controversial plea that year and led to a criminal penalty of 15 months.
The evidence records that are included in the newly released Trove Documents show a list of more than 150 items, including photos, hard drives, sex toys and two envelopes with the label 'SK', presumably Kellen's initials, with cash payments.
An envelope with $ 17,115 was dated 27 August 2008, only a few weeks after Epstein signed the deal and if the loyalty of Kellen would have been for the utmost importance.
The excavated evidence has again asked questions about why Kellen never had to deal with charges, unlike Epstein's notorious Mrs. Ghislaine Maxwell who was eventually tried and convicted in 2021.
Lawyers claimed that Kellen saw himself as the boss' and during the conviction of Maxwell for Kinderhandel in 2022 and judge Sarah Nathan explicitly said that Kellen was a 'knowing participant' who was' criminal responsible '.
A proof list included in the long -awaited 'Epstein Files' that were released last week suggests that the circumstances had reserved $ 21,000 for his assistant Sarah Kellen; Displayed together in 2012
Kellen, who is described by witnesses and victims as a recruiter of Epstein in his operation with sex trade, has succeeded in avoiding charges after he has received immunity during his first criminal cases
Maxwell is currently a penalty of 20 years.
The apparent references to Kellen, 45, appear in the last week that was released last week, which seems to have been set up for the Maxwell test in 2021.
Maxwell was arrested after Epstein had hung himself in 2019 after he was arrested for charges for children and the frustration of the victims of Epstein, the only person remains in his job to heather accusations.
Below the items on the list there is one that is described as: 'One heat-drained bag with one yellow envelope marked' SK 'from 27/08/08 with several smaller envelopes with $ 17.115 USD (152 x $ 100, 35 x $ 50, 4 x $ 20, 6 x $ 5)' '
Another envelope seems to date back to the year 2000.
It is described as: 'One heat-defeated bag with one small white envelope with writing' 2000-SK 'with $ 4,400 USC (44 x $ 100)'.
The proof list does not explain why the money was still in the envelopes years later.
But the one from 2008 seems to be important, because that is the year that Epstein signed his plea.

Two months earlier, in June 2008, he admitted in a constitutional court to one counting of a request for prostitution and one counting of the request of prostitution with a minor under the age of 18.
Epstein was imprisoned for 18 months, followed by a year of house arrest and was instructed to register as a sex offender.
The following month, the victims of Epstein discovered the plea after the fact and he applied for an emergency to force federal prosecutors to adhere to the crime Victims' Rights' Rights', which requires that they are informed about such pleidoors meetings and upon condemnation.
Payment for Kellen was marked the following month – a time when her loyalty would have been to Epstein for him.
That is especially the case see how centrally her role was allegedly in his operation of sex trade.
Kellen has attracted special contempt from the victims of Epstein because she was in the twenties when she reportedly helped traffic young girls who, in their opinion, more guilty than when she was closer to their age.
Before the Maxwell process, it was speculated that Kellen could testify to the persecution, not least to prevent him from being arrested himself.
She did not testify, but was mentioned no less than 81 times in the first two weeks, the length of the persecution.
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced last week that she had released previously sealed documents related to the Epstein case

The former housekeeper of Palm Beach, Juan Alessi van Epstein, said that at the end of his time there was working there to work for Epstein – he left in 2002.
He said that Kellen 'immediately took over the phone, answered the phone, and I think she think she has planned the planning of the massages'.
During the testimony of victim Carolyn Andriano, she said that Maxwell had called her for the first year or two to plan the more than 100 massages that she gave Epstein between the ages of 14 and 18 years.
Then Kellen was the one who contacted her.
Carolyn testified that Kellen took nude photos of her in the house of Epstein after the pedophile offered her $ 600 for the images.
Proof that the jury has not been shown, included flight logs that show that Kellen flew 350 times on Epstein's private jet, known as the 'Lolita Express', and was seen on photos on his private island in the Caribbean.
Epstein victim Sarah Ransome has told the New York Times that “the Ghislaine and Sarah Kellen showed me how I could please Jeffrey.”
In their memo prior to the conviction of Maxwell, prosecutors said: 'Kellen joined the conspiracy when Maxwell was still second in the order under Epstein. Given the role of Maxwell in the household and in the conspiracy, she certainly exercised authority over Kellen.
The apparent references to Kellen, 45, appear in the list of proof that seems to have been prepared for the test of Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell is currently in a prison sentence of 20 years
Kellen is now married to Nascar driver who has become investor Brian Vickers, 41, and has renamed himself interior designer under the name Sarah Kensington
“The clear conclusion from this record is that Maxwell instructed Kellen about planning massages and the part of the schedule that Maxwell had dealt with, at which point Kellen switched to making agreements to plan agreements after Maxwell's instructions.”
Kellen is now married to Nascar driver who has become investor Brian Vickers, 41, and has renamed himself interior designer under the name Sarah Kensington.
She and her husband live in a $ 5.3 million penthouse in the Trendy Soho area of ​​Manhattan.
They bought it in 2007 and it is unclear how Kellen could pay for real estate.
In addition to their property in New York, the couple has a beautiful apartment for one bedroom in Miami with a large balcony with a major view of the Atlantic Ocean.
After he was approached by a journalist in 2020, Kellen reportedly said: “I was made as a monster – but it's not true.”
She continued: 'I am the victim of Jeffrey Epstein. I was raped and abused weekly. '
A lawsuit brought by a woman who seemed to be Kellen claimed that he abused her for three years from the start when she was 14 and experienced financial problems.
And in an exclusive interview with The Daily Mail, Kellen's parents said she was cared for and manipulated after she grew up in a pious religious household and then dropped out with them.
