Victims of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein say they are compiling a list of names of his associates.
Survivors gathered in Washington DC on Wednesday and demanded the US Congress pass legislation forcing the release of all unclassified records related to the disgraced financier held by Donald Trump's administration.
One victim, Lisa Philips, said survivors were putting together their own list of people who were "in the Epstein world".
She said: "We know the names… Now, together as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know who were regularly in the Epstein world and it will be done by survivors and for survivors."
Around 10 self-described Epstein victims spoke out the press conference outside the US Capitol, including former model and actress Anouska De Georgiou who said: "This is about ending secrecy wherever abuse of power takes root."
The women said they supported legislation in the House of Representatives called the Epstein Files Transparency Bill requiring the release of records, including those held by the FBI and US attorneys' offices.
Republican Representatives, Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Democrat Ro Khanna of California, organised the press conference and are trying to force a vote on the bill.
Mr Trump described the situation as a "Democrat hoax that never ends".

The US President said in a White House Oval Office appearance on Wednesday: "From what I understand, thousands of pages of documents have been given.
"But it's really a Democrat hoax because they're trying to get people to talk about something that's totally irrelevant to the success that we've had as a nation since I've been president."
The controversy over the Department of Justice withholding Epstein files has dogged Mr Trump throughout much of this summer, with some of his core supporters demanding their release.
On Tuesday, in a more than 33,000-page-strong data dump, documents from the US Department of Justice (DoJ) were finally made public.

A statement on the US House Oversight Committee website read: "On August 5, Chairman [Congressman James] Comer issued a subpoena for records related to Mr Jeffrey Epstein, and the Department of Justice has indicated it will continue producing those records while ensuring the redaction of victim identities and any child sexual abuse material."
Among the files released on Tuesday evening were a number of video clips - including one which appeared to show an anonymous young woman recounting her experience as one of Epstein's "masseuses".
There were also extensive documents relating to Epstein's time behind bars in a New York prison - where he died - as well as files relating to probes into his death.
Elsewhere in the mass release, flight logs, court filings, surveillance footage from the jail where Epstein died, redacted records, depositions, memos and more could all be found.

There were however claims that most of the information released was already in the public domain.
Robert Garcia, the highest-profile Democrat on the US House Oversight Committee, said: "The 33,000 pages of Epstein documents James Comer [committee chairman] has decided to 'release' were already mostly public information.
"To the American people - don't let this fool you.
"After careful review, Oversight Democrats have found that 97 per cent of the documents received from the Department of Justice were already public.
"There is no mention of any client list or anything that improves transparency or justice for victims."
