Disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein hid hard drives and photos from authorities in multiple storage lockers across the country, a report said. 

The pedophile rented at least six units, the majority of which were in Florida, paying thousands between 2003 and 2019, according to an investigation by The Telegraph. 

The lockers may have remained uncovered by US authorities, suggesting they held never-before-seen evidence in Epstein’s long string of horrific crimes.

The outlet obtained files and credit card statements detailing Epstein’s various secret hiding places for computers, CDs, pictures and files. 

His lockers could point to answers after authorities long suspected that Epstein received insider information about raids of his properties. 

Former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter told NBC that during a 2005 search, the sex offender’s place ‘had been cleaned up.’

Epstein allegedly recruited detectives to move documents, photographs and computers to one of his multiple storage lockers.

Uncovered credit card statements suggested that he paid a private detective agency $38,500 from January to May 2010 alone.

Florida units were traced just miles from his Sunshine State home outside of Palm Beach and Delray Beach.

Epstein allegedly began leasing one locker at Uncle Bob’s in Florida in 2003, paying $374.13 per month until March 2015. Smaller payments continued until 2016.

At least one Florida unit, which he used between 2009 and 2011, was accessible to patrons 24 hours a day and was capable of storing vehicles.

Payments pointed to more units in Florida, which Epstein leased across a decade. 

One detailed monthly payment of $140 for a Royal Palm Beach location until 2019.

He also asked investigators to rent out a unit on his behalf in New York beginning in 2010 at around $500 per month. 

Another unit, just five minutes from his New York City mansion, mainly contained furniture, equipment and computers.

Pictures taken by staff in 2012 from one of the units showed furniture and cardboard boxes jammed in the cluttered unit. 

Files also suggested Epstein was interested in a ‘secret storage unit’ near his New Mexico ranch.
