Convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein told current US ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack to “make me smile” with pictures of him and a “child”, according to a 2016 email that was released in a trove of correspondence by Congress on Wednesday.
“Send photos of you and child.. – make me smile,” Epstein, the disgraced late financier, wrote to Barrack in March 2016.
Epstein then responded to an email from Barrack, writing, “Photos look good.”
It is unclear what “child” Epstein was referring to in his email and what photos were contained in the emails sent by Barrack.

‘Smart’ shoes
The trove of emails also shows Epstein’s direct contact with at least one elite citizen of the UAE.
In 2011, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, the chairman and CEO of DP World, emailed Epstein about sneakers embedded with GPS tracking devices advertised to monitor children. The email was titled, “Gps GTX Smart Shoe.”
Epstein responded: “thanks, great idea, i really like your friend”.
