One of the islands, called Great St. James, is 160 acres of mostly undisturbed nature and only a few structures, The Journal reported. The second island, Little St. James, is less than half the size of Great St. James but has much more to offer with three private beaches, four guest quarters, a gym, two pools, and even has its own helipad and gas station.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Little St. James is infamously known as \u201cpedophile island.\u201d Epstein was accused of having underage girls trafficked to him there. \u201c<\/span><span>In early 2020, Virgin Islands prosecutors alleged that Epstein had brought girls as young as 11 to the secluded islands by yacht and private helicopter, and that he and his associates had sexually assaulted the girls,\u201d according to The Journal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Epstein\u2019s island was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2019\/08\/12\/fbi-searches-jeffrey-epsteins-home-in-virgin-islands-nbc-news.html\">raided<\/a> by FBI agents in August of 2019, two days after the sex offender died in his New York jail cell. His death was ultimately ruled a suicide.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Some of the profit from the sale of the islands will go toward outstanding legal costs, Epstein\u2019s estate attorney Daniel Weiner said. The Journal reported that roughly \u201c$121 million of Epstein\u2019s estate has already been used to compensate victims of sexual assault by the financier through the Epstein Victims\u2019 Compensation Program, which ceased operations in August 2021, Mr. Weiner said.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Some people don\u2019t seem to mind buying a property that formerly belonged to the infamous sex offender \u2014 properties he owned in New York and Palm Beach, Florida, have already been sold.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Buying private islands also seems to be a new trend for many people. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In 2019, a group of investors bought a one-acre island off the coast of Belize in Central America. The property, purchased through crowdfunding, was recently dubbed in a new report as the micronation of Coffee Caye, or the Principality of Islandia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThe Principality of Islandia is a micronation experiment within the greater IBG project,\u201d the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.letsbuyanisland.com\/\"><span>website<\/span><\/a><span> for the group of investors states. \u201cWe plan to use our island paradise to forward our own ideals of democracy, inclusion and sustainability.
