TLDR
Rosemary Pitcher sent three FedEx shipments from Jet Aviation at Palm Beach International Airport to Little St. James LLC at 6100 Red Hook Quarter, St. Thomas, between 2003 and 2005. She also signed for 16 packages at the JEGE hangar over four years. The shipping weights (40, 16, and 26 pounds), declared values ($500, $100, $137), and the airport Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) origin point — a private aviation terminal where private jets are serviced and hangared — establish her as the aviation logistics coordinator responsible for provisioning the island through the aircraft operation.
Three Shipments to the Island
The records are concise. Three FedEx shipments, all following the same pattern (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026a):
January 29, 2003: 40 pounds, declared value $500. Jet Aviation, 1515 Perimeter Road, West Palm Beach to Little St. James LLC, 6100 Red Hook Quarter #2, St. Thomas VI. Attention: Miles Alexander. Reference: 400361.
July 21, 2003: 16 pounds, declared value $100. Same origin, same destination, same attention line. Reference: 400361.
September 23, 2005: 26 pounds, declared value $137. Same origin, same destination. Reference: 400361.
The repeating reference number — 400361 — appears across all three shipments and links to other JEGE-related FedEx records in the corpus. It functions as a consistent billing account code tying Pitcher's shipments to the broader aircraft and island logistics operation.
All three packages were addressed to Miles Alexander at Little St. James LLC. Alexander's role at the island is not defined in the FedEx records, but his consistent appearance as the receiving contact across a two-and-a-half-year span indicates an ongoing operational presence.
What the Weights Tell Us
Forty pounds. Sixteen pounds. Twenty-six pounds. These are not document weights. A ream of paper weighs five pounds. A thick legal filing weighs two. Forty pounds of paper would be eight reams — an unlikely thing to ship from an airport FBO to a Caribbean island.
These were physical goods. Provisions, equipment, supplies — the material infrastructure required to maintain a private island. The declared values ($500, $100, $137) are modest enough to suggest utilitarian items rather than luxury goods, but high enough to indicate something worth insuring.
The origin point matters. Jet Aviation is an FBO at Palm Beach International Airport — the same facility where Epstein's aircraft were hangared and maintained (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026a). Pitcher was not shipping from a warehouse or an office. She was shipping from the aviation operation directly to the island, using FedEx as the commercial carrier for goods that were presumably too large or too numerous to carry on the aircraft themselves.
Sixteen Signatures at the Hangar
Beyond sending three packages, Pitcher signed for 16 separate incoming packages at the JEGE hangar between 2001 and 2004 (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026b). Signing for packages at an aircraft hangar is not a casual activity. It requires physical presence at the facility, authorization to accept deliveries on behalf of the entity, and routine access to the aviation operation.
Sixteen signatures over four years averages to one package per quarter — a steady cadence of inbound logistics at the hangar where Epstein's fleet was maintained. Combined with her three outbound shipments to the island, the picture is clear: Pitcher managed the physical flow of goods between the West Palm Beach aviation base and the USVI island compound.
The OCR Correction
An earlier analysis attributed a $5,032 shipping charge to Pitcher. Source document verification revealed this was an OCR error — errors introduced when scanning software tries to read blurry or damaged text — and the actual charge was $50.72, consistent with an aircraft parts shipment with hazardous materials surcharge (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026a). The correction is documented in the FedEx third-party analysis and serves as a reminder that every quantitative finding from scanned FedEx invoices requires verification against the original documents.
The corrected figure is mundane. $50.72 is a normal FedEx charge for a package in the 16-26 pound range with priority service to the U.S. Virgin Islands. It is the pattern, not any individual charge, that tells the story.
The September 2005 Significance
Pitcher's third shipment — September 23, 2005 — is one of the final records before the FedEx corpus ends in October 2005 (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026a). The corpus cutoff falls approximately four months before Epstein's Palm Beach arrest in March 2006. Whether the shipping activity continued after October 2005, under the same account or a different one, is beyond the corpus boundary.
What the September 2005 shipment confirms is that island provisioning through the aviation logistics chain continued right up to the edge of the available record. There is no indication of wind-down or cessation prior to the cutoff. The operation appears to have been running at its normal cadence when the record simply stops.
The Second Shipment Reference
One detail remains unresolved. The second shipment's reference field contains "CHRIS GAIE" alongside the standard 400361 code (PAPER TRAIL Project, 2026a). This name does not appear elsewhere in the corpus. It could be a co-reference for the package contents, an alternate contact, or a billing sub-code. It has not been resolved through source document verification or entity matching.
In a corpus of 2,894 shipments, unresolved names are common. OCR quality on FedEx invoices averages 0.4-0.5 confidence (meaning the scanning software is roughly as likely to misread a character as to read it correctly). Many names are partially legible, mangled, or truncated. "CHRIS GAIE" is legible but unexplained — one of hundreds of names that appear once in shipping records and nowhere else.
