Former President Bill Clinton was spotted strolling through the streets of a small Mexican town before being named in the Epstein list.
Clinton was captured at the main square of San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, alongside tourists.
Mayor Mauricio Trejo Pureco shared a picture on social media of Clinton in front of the parish of San Miguel Arcángel.
In a tweet, Pureco welcomed him, saying: 'Even Bill Clinton walks calmly and safely through the streets of San Miguel de Allende, enjoying its unique beauty and kindness of the people of San Miguel de Allende.
'Welcome Mr. President! That's why we are [the] best small city of the world!!!'
This picture of Clinton comes after he was named 73 times in the documents linking him with pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Clinton was pictured alongside his wife Hillary, 76, as well as the former president of Chile, Sebastián Piñera, second from the right, and Mexico, Enrique Pena Nieto (third left). The picture is dated December 29 in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Clinton was also pictured alongside his wife Hillary, 76, as well as the former president of Chile, Sebastián Piñera, and of Mexico, Enrique Pena-Nieto.
The picture was dated December 29 in Punta Cana, in the Dominican Republic.
The image of the couple alongside Piñera was shared by Frank Elías Rainieri, a hotelier in the Dominican Republic.
Hillary Clinton was not known to spend time with Jeffrey Epstein, but her husband was a friend from at least 1993.
The pedophile financier made at least 17 visits to the White House, presidential logs show, and Bill Clinton also flew on Epstein's private jet - making trips to Europe, Asia and Africa in 2002 and 2003.
Bill Clinton's spokesman Angel Urena said in July 2019, when Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, that he 'knows nothing about the terrible crimes' that Epstein was accused of, and that Clinton had not spoken to Epstein 'in more than a decade.'
Despite this, there are mentions in the documents of his past friendship with Epstein, but Clinton has not been accused of any wrongdoing.
Johanna Sjoberg told lawyers that Epstein claimed Clinton had 'liked them young'.
Deposition documents show Sjoberg was asked if she knew the former US president was a friend of Epstein.
Sjoberg said: 'I knew he had dealings with Bill Clinton.
'I did not know they were friends until I read the Vanity Fair article about them going to Africa together.'

Asked if Epstein had ever talked about the former president, Sjoberg said: 'He said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.'
Other mentions included legal arguments over whether Virginia Giuffre should be allowed more time to depose potential witnesses, including Clinton.
Giuffre never alleged he was involved in illegal behavior, but her attorneys said the former president was a 'key person who can provide information about his close relationship' with Ghislaine Maxwell and Epstein.
Maxwell's attorneys countered that Clinton testimony was not relevant.
Roberts - using her married name, Virginia Giuffre - argues that Clinton was close to both Maxwell and Epstein, who died in jail awaiting trial in August 2019.
'In a 2011 interview, Ms. Giuffre mentioned former President Bill Clinton's close personal relationship with Defendant and Jeffrey Epstein,' the court document states.
'While Ms. Giuffre made no allegations of illegal actions by Bill Clinton, Ms. Maxwell in her deposition raised Ms. Giuffre's comments about President Clinton as one of the 'obvious lies' to which she was referring in her public statement that formed the basis of this suit.

'Apart from the Defendant and Mr. Epstein, former President Clinton is a key person who can provide information about his close relationship with Defendant and Mr. Epstein and disapprove Ms. Maxwell's claims.'
Another woman who claimed she was sexually abused by Epstein, Johanna Sjoberg, said in her deposition that Epstein told her 'Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.'
It is unclear how Clinton and Epstein met, but Roberts was not the only one to claim the pair were close.
Clinton's office previously issued a statement in regards to his travels on the plane and denied knowing anything about the financier's crimes.
His team said he had only taken four trips with him in 2002 and 2003 - although flight logs showed he had taken a total of at least 26 individual flights in the course of those years.
'President Clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has previously been charged in New York,' a statement read.
'In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein's airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the Clinton Foundation.

On Wednesday, hours before the court documents were unsealed, Jeffrey Epstein's brother Mark, a New York-based property developer, said his sibling claimed to have information about Donald Trump and Bill Clinton which was so explosive it would derail the 2016 presidential election.
Mark Epstein, younger than Jeffrey by 18 months, said his brother never provided details.
Mark, 69, told The New York Post: 'Here's a direct quote: 'If I said what I know about both candidates, they'd have to cancel the election.' That's what Jeffrey told me in 2016.'
Mark Epstein said that flying with Bill Clinton was a key mistake of his brother's, because it suddenly shone a spotlight on his activities.
'Jeff first took Clinton and I think it was Chris Tucker and some other people to Africa — which was a mistake my brother made by doing that, because prior to that he was under the radar; nobody was looking at him.
'But when he flew Clinton there, it was like, 'Who's this guy flying Clinton?''
Bill Clinton's spokesman Angel Urena said in July 2019, when Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, that he 'knows nothing about the terrible crimes' that Epstein was accused of, and that Clinton had not spoken to Epstein 'in more than a decade.'
There is no evidence that Clinton ever visited Epstein's Caribbean island, Little St. James.
The unsealing of the documents on Wednesday made uncomfortable reading for an array of famous faces, beyond Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.
Neither Clinton nor Trump are accused of having sex with any of Epstein's victims, but Roberts claims that she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew.
He denies those allegations and all claims of impropriety. Sjoberg also accused the Prince of groping her breast.
Andrew has always strongly denied their claims. In March 2022 he paid a settlement to Roberts, officially ending her civil case against him, but without any admission of guilt.

At the time, he said he 'never intended to malign Ms Giuffre's character' and he recognized she had 'suffered both as an established victim of abuse and as a result of unfair public attacks'.
He also pledged to 'demonstrate his regret for his association' with Epstein. Roberts also said she had sex with billionaire Hyatt hotel heir Tom Pritzker.
Pritzker is Hyatt Hotels' executive chairman and the cousin of Illinois' Democrat Governor JB Pritzker. He is chairman and CEO of the Pritzker Organization.
Epstein's Palm Beach mansion was one of several sites where he sexually abused young girls.
The waterfront estate, just over a mile from Donald Trump 's Mar-a-Lago, went on the market in 2020 for $21.9 million but is believed to have been sold for $18 million.
Todd Michael Glaser, a Florida-based developer, now intends to demolish the existing house and build a new one in its place.
Others named in the documents are scientists and academics who Epstein courted - among them Professor Stephen Hawking, the British physicist.
Hawking visited Epstein's island in 2006 for a meeting with other prominent scientists.
After the visit, Epstein, according to the court documents, sent an email to Maxwell urging her to rubbish comments that the disabled physicist participated in a pedophile orgy during his stay.
