Jack Horner being in the Epstein files is not something I had on my bingo card for 2026.... Horner seemingly visited Epstein's ranch multiple times, including apparently with a student.
Email from Leslie Groff to Jeffrey Epstein Subject: Jack Horner to Ranch "Jack Horner says to please tell you he would love to see your ranch and he would be abailable to come any day after July 25th." Email from Lesley Groff to Jeffrey Epsetin Should I check in with Jack Horner? He believes hens to leave for the ranch on July 26 (2 weeks from today). Do I need to tell him plans are in a holding pattern? Jeffery Epstein responds: delay him one day Lesley Groff responds: Another tid bit! JE is asking me to delay jack horner one day! So this would be an arrival of July 27 depart 29... I have emailed Jack to aske if this would work with his schedule.... :) Email from John Horner to Jeffrey Epstein 6/29/2012 Hi [redacted] Since i don't really know how long it would take to get from Albuquerque to the ranch and visa versa [sic], and don't know how I'm to get there (would someone be picking me up or should I rent a car) it would probably be best if you just booked the flight for me. Delta Airlines connecting through Salt Lake is the most convenient for me. My official name and frequent number [sic] is: John Robert Horner Delta # [REDACTED] The geology maps are perfect.

As if Horner couldn't get any worse than marrying his 19-year old student at 70...and then this comes up.

This dude’s been on my shitlist ever since I was six years old for suggesting that Tyrannosaurus Rex was exclusively a scavenger, so I can’t help but feel a little vindicated here

Jack Horner in the Epstein File trying to raise money to fund dinosaur research. When I discovered we had rich nazis on our dig in 2008, I dropped them like a rancid turd; ask Don. There will never be a Trumpasaurus with my name attached! @paleontologizing.bsky.social @utahpaleo-ufop.bsky.social

Completely unsurprising as many have already said. Begging MOR to distance themselves from Horner's legacy akin to what AMNH has done with Henry Osborn.

Honestly, between being exposed as bing tied to Jeffery Epstein and the Tyrannosaurus ontogny model being invalidated by "Nano", the universe is really trying to destroy Jack Horner's legacy - as it should be.

Remember, this is before Epstein's arrest and conviction. Searching for funding is difficult. I only learned that I was dealing with Nazis by comments made right before they left.....No Nazis T-shirts... I changed my mind right there, about seeking sponsorship of our our highly underfunded research.

Hmm, sounds like we need a refresher. The issue of whether everyone's favorite long-neck is called Brontosaurus or Apatosaurus (or both) has *nothing* to do with which skull was historically included on museum mounts! 🧵#FossilFriday
