How to Review Documents
Document review is the backbone of this project. Here’s how:
- Go to epsteinexposed.com and click “Start Reviewing”
- You’ll see a document with its OCR text
- Rate it: Significant (contains important evidence), Routine (normal correspondence), or Junk (blank/unreadable)
- Add tags if relevant: financial, legal, medical, travel, etc.
- Leave a comment if you spot something noteworthy
Tips:
- Look for names, dates, dollar amounts, and locations
- Cross-reference names with the Persons directory
