Pedophile Island: The golden dome that formally sat atop Jeffrey Epstein's temple on Little St James is gone in recent photos (domeless temple above)

Hidden messages: The temple has been of great interest to members of the QAnon community, who had been talking about the island long before Epstein's arrest
This work has been done despite the fact that only the construction of a flagpole and repair of cisterns has been approved on the island.
And yet next door, his temple remains domeless.
Epstein had erected 'No Trespassing' signs throughout around almost all of Great St. James due to the area's popularity with tourists.
Local laws make all land below the tide or bush lines public property, so Epstein couldn't legally kick people off those lands, but he was being vigilant about making sure no one wanders onto his property.
He had made Little St. James his primary residence, but in June the helicopter that shuttles the millionaire and his guests to and from the airport was listed for sale online, with an asking price of $1.8 million
Epstein also sold one of his private jets in June. His other was seized when he was arrested in July after landing back on US soil following three-week trip to Paris.
In total, Epstein's properties are valued at close to $150 million.
There is the Paris bolthole where he spent the weeks before returning to the US and getting arrested on the tarmac as his plane touched down at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey.
The $9 million pied-a-terre is located on one of the nicest blocks in the City of Lights, and Epstein traveled there frequently, often spending a few months at the apartment each summer.
The raid came at the same morning that Attorney General Bill Barr issued a stark warning to Jeffrey Epstein's alleged co-conspirators, telling them they 'should not rest easy'.

The investigation into Epstein's sex crimes is set to shift its focus following his death to those accused of helping him, in a move that threatens to implicate some of the world's richest, most powerful people.
Speaking at a police event in New Orleans Barr said: 'Let me assure you that this case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein. Any co-conspirators should not rest easy.
'The victims deserve justice and they will get it.'
He also slammed the handling of Epstein by the Manhattan Correctional Center after it was revealed a corrections officer had not checked on the pedophile for several hours before he hanged himself in his cell in the special housing unit.
Barr, who said he was 'appalled' and 'angry' at the failure to 'adequately secure' Epstein, added: 'This sex trafficking case was very important to the Department of Justice and to me personally.
'Most importantly this case was important to the victims who had the courage to come forward and deserve the opportunity to confront the accused in the courtroom.
'I was appalled, and indeed the whole department was, and frankly angry to learn of the MCC's failure to adequately secure this prisoner.
'We are now learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation.
'We will get to the bottom of what happened and there will be accountability.'
A former close associate of the late mobster John Gotti Sr., Lewis Kasman, said he heard Barr paid the MCC a visit around the time Epstein was with bruises on his neck. He told
The New York Post: 'When does that happen? The attorney general never visits jails. Something’s not right there.'
Ghislaine Maxwell, the socialite daughter of late media tyc00n Robert, is one of those who may find her dealings with the disgraced financier in the spotlight after he was found hanged in his prison cell at Metropolitan Correctional Center on Saturday morning.

Maxwell, 58, described as the 'madam of the house' by a former housekeeper at Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach,
Florida, has always denied any wrongdoing but reports now suggest she may even be ready to co-operate with the authorities.
Prosecutors may also target the witnesses who were set to testify against Epstein now that 'they don't need them',
The New York Post reports.
One source said: 'They were getting a deal to testify against Epstein.'
According to
Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown prosecutors 'will likely refocus their probe on Maxwell, Sarah Kellen Vickers, Adriana Ross and Lesley Groff'.
They have all been accused of helping to run Epstein's operation and Brown adds: 'Another woman, Nadia Marcinkova, was accused of sexually abusing some of the underage girls.'
Brown also told MSNBC there are still 'thousands and thousands of more documents that are probably going to be released'.
She added: 'There are so many threads of information and evidence and testimony and witnesses that are contained in those documents that he has a lot to work with there.'
Epstein's accusers may also be able to pursue civil cases against his estate, including his $77 million mansion in New York City and his Palm Beach home.
