15. Notes

"[Jeffrey] Epstein and [Ghislaine] Maxwell forced me into sexual activity with Epstein. I was 15 years old at the time. ... I also had sexual intercourse with Jean Luc Brunel many times when I was 16 through 19 years old. ... Brunel ran some kind of modeling agency and appeared to have an arrangement with the U.S. Government where he could get passports or other travel documents for young girls. He would then bring these young girls (girls ranging in age from 12 to 24) to the United States for sexual purposes and farm them out to his friends, including Epstein. ... Jeffrey Epstein has told me that he has slept with over 1,000 of Brunel's girls, and everything that I have seen confirms this claim. Epstein, Brunel, and Maxwell loved orgies with kids... Epstein also trafficked me for sexual purposes to many other powerful men, including politicians and powerful business executives. ... I am still very fearful of these men today."

"Jane Doe 102 [Virginia Roberts Giuffre] was 15 years old when Ghislaine Maxwell discovered her and lured her to Epstein's house. Maxwell and Epstein forced her to have sex with both of them and within weeks Maxwell and Epstein were flying her all over the world. According to the Complaint, Jane Doe 102 was forced to live as one of Epstein's underage sex slaves for years and was forced to have sex with not only Maxwell and Epstein but also other politicians, businessmen, royalty, academicians, etc. She was even made to watch Epstein have sex with three 12-year-old French girls that were sent to him for his birthday by a French citizen that is a friend of Epstein's [likely Jean Luc Brunel]."

"As well as explosive allegations about Prince Andrew, 'Jane Doe #3' told the court she was 'trafficked for sexual purposes' to a string of other powerful men – including 'a well-known Prime Minister'. No clue was given to the identity, but the court documents say Epstein's 'lending' of young girls to prominent international figures – foreign presidents and US politicians and businessmen among them – was to 'ingratiate' himself and 'so that he could potentially blackmail them'."

Intro: why the Epstein case is important

Most of this article was planned to be published in January 2015. Now, a full five years later, after another arrest of Jeffrey Epstein, and his subsequent suicide in prison, maybe it's time to finally put out the story.

Obviously, the Epstein affair might well be the most massively reported on child abuse affair - ever - but it might still be nice to actually have an article out there that discusses the whole affair, from beginning to end, in great detail, well-sourced, with all the relevant court documents available. I myself noticed that crawling through 10,000 newspaper articles on the affair in 2015-2016 really couldn't compare to reading a number of court documents, namely:

• May 1, 2006, Palm Beach police, Probable Cause Affidavit.
• Virginia Roberts Giuffre testimony against Jeffrey Epstein (2008) and Alan Dershowitz (2015).
• September 22, 2010, Statement of Undisputed Facts of Roberts' lawyer.
• March 20, 2011, R. Alexander Acosta letter on Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 plea deal.

The Epstein case might not be as shocking as the Dutroux X-Dossiers, but it does have its place. For starters, the Epstein case ties into a lot of other ISGP research. To illustrate:

• Epstein's chief lawyer and alleged accomplice, Alan Dershowitz, was the mentor of the super-globalist actress Natalie Portman at Harvard and remains a major neocon (despite having liberal elite leanings as well) with ties to former CIA director James Woolsey, this through NGO Monitor and the anti-immigration Gatestone Institute.


• Epstein was friends with both Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.


• At the turn of the century, Epstein used to hang out with Google founder Sergey Brin and a bunch of rent-a-skeptic scientists at the annual Billionaires' Dinners of the TED Talk-tied Edge Foundation.


• Epstein was a member of the super-elite Trilateral Commission from at least 1995 until at least March 2007 (when he was already under investigation for over two years, with his name appearing in the New York Times over this 6 months before), alongside the likes of founders David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski, Henry Kissinger, Enron's Ken Lay, top Democrat globalists George Soros and Senator Dianne Feinstein, former CIA director John Deutch, future Bush vice president Dick Cheney, future Bush assistant secretary of defense Paul Wolfowitz, and other leading "right-left" globalists.


• Two mentors of Epstein, Abe Greenberg and Les Wexner, were/are leading Zionists, the latter certainly a member of the Zionist "Mega Group". This network strongly ties back to Israel and the Mossad.


• Epstein and his lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, used to hang out with elites as Ghislaine Maxwell - Epstein's girlfriend - and the Rothschilds. Maxwell and the Rothschilds tie back to both the Mossad and the Haut de la Garenne child abuse scandal, but this is not discussed in this article.

Hence, considering Epstein's obsession with underage prostitutes seems to have been pretty much an open secret by the late 1990s, his case is an important one to discuss, if only to get a sense how much of this type of behavior is tolerated and ignored in elite circles, including the media.

Epstein the Friendly Pedophile: 2005-2006 police file

Nothing beats original documentation. Hundreds of articles have been written about the Jeffrey Epstein pedophile affair, but none of them even come close to reading the 22-page probable cause affidavit of the Palm Beach Police Department. [1] I highly suggest readers go through it in order to understand how the initial Epstein investigation began in March 2005 and basically ended with this report, dated May 1, 2006. Much of the report is summarized in this first section.

The picture that emerges from the probable cause affidavit is considerably less negative than, let's say, the Dutroux X-Dossiers, in which torture and murder of very young children, sometimes not even in their teens, appears to have been the norm. Is any of that true? Who really knows. Some of the testimonies I personally find suspect, but it's impossible to deny that there's an awful lot of evidence, all pointing to Belgian members of Bilderberg - and their immediate friends - and a variety of Le Cercle-tied Cold War CIA assets. That's quite the coincidence. Mind you, Epstein was a member of the Trilateral Commission, which strongly overlaps with Bilderberg, for 10 years when the investigation against him was started in March 2005.

None of the extreme child abuse material of the X-Dossiers can be found in the original Epstein case, however. Here we have a billionaire working 9 to 10 hours a day who during his breaks prefers to enjoy a massage. We're hardly even talking about "massages", but actual massages. Epstein definitely had an obsession with them. He also paid well: usually $200 and sometimes $300 or $400. This immediately explains why he found lots of "volunteers" over the years, with quite a few of them returning dozens, if not hundreds of times.

Of course, there were more problematic aspects to these massages; otherwise he wouldn't have landed in jail - however brief that (initial) stay was. While this may not have always been the case, certainly since the late 1990s, Epstein preferred to get these massages from underage girls in the range of 14- to 17-years-old. The probable cause affidavit doesn't mention ages below 14, so we'll go with that for now.

What made things particularly illegal is that Epstein was always looking for so-called "happy endings", not just for himself, but also for the youthful masseuses. All girls reported having experiences along these lines: Epstein would try to get girls to remove as much clothing as possible and would beat off to the girl present. Sometimes he would rub their vaginas and breasts in the process. He also had a habit of grabbing a giant vibrator that he would hold between the girls' legs. Most of this happened without any warning beforehand and certainly the question to remove as much clothing as possible - and the beating off - would start during the first session.

Vaginal intercourse only happened with two of the underage girls in the police investigation. In one instance it was consensual. Epstein simply asked if it was a possibility. She said it was okay and they had sex. For this he gave her an additional $150. The other case involved a girl who had been massaging him for a long time. Only known as A.H., this girl occasionally had sex with Epstein's live-in "sex slave", Nadia Marcinkova, and allowed Epstein to make her come with a vibrator. At one point Epstein apparently thought it would be okay to go after her, bending her over a table, holding her head down, and taking her from behind. She got upset about this, after which Epstein stopped, apologized, and gave her $1,000. She never went to the police and it is unknown if she continued providing massages.

Over the course of the investigation, the police carried out a search of Epstein's home. The details provided by the girls were confirmed: a pink couch in the main bathroom where the massages took place, a stairwell lined with pictures of naked underage girls, many of them familiar; similar pictures throughout the house; and notepads with telephone numbers of the girls.

Sensational news stories about hidden cameras in rooms where sex took place do not seem to be true. The police report clearly states that only two hidden cameras were found: one in the library behind Epstein's desk and one in the garage. That's it. Ultimately the police report concluded:

The interesting thing is that the most severe aspect, two cases of vaginal penetration, aren't necessarily the worst. As mentioned, in one case it was consensual; and in the other case it involved a girl who had massaged him hundreds of times and participated in all other aspects of sex play. Epstein immediately stopped what he was doing, apologized, and she made another $1,000 on top of the many thousands she had already made. It's illegal (for good reason) and he should be prosecuted for it, but the acts themselves were completely voluntary on behalf of the girls.

The most damning aspect is really that he put the vast majority of these underage girls in a very uncomfortable and sometimes even very threatening situations when he told them to strip and, without warning, pulled out his giant vibrators, started rubbing different body parts, inserted his fingers in bodily orifices, and began to jerk off. On top of that, Epstein was corrupting local high school and college girls by setting up pedophile recruitment schemes in which girls were incriminating themselves by going around trying to recruit other "masseuses", with the girls that decided to come over being paid under the table with large amounts of cash. Primary recruiters of Epstein included Haley Robson, Sarah Kellen and his live-in "Balkan sex-slave" Nadia Marcinkova.

Despite all that, it appears that the amount of trauma doled out by Mr. Jeffrey Epstein - as far as we know - is relatively minor compared to other pedophile cases studied by ISGP. Mitigating factors here for Epstein are:

• Almost all girls were instructed beforehand that they were going to give an erotic massage to an eccentric billionaire and that they could always say "stop" if he would go too far.
• They received a minimum of $200 per massage.
• Sometimes Epstein also paid Christmas bonuses, college fees, down payments for a house, or provided girls with his own or with rented cars.
• Most of the girls came back several times, or even recruited girls while they themselves did not provide any more massages.
• None of the girls went to the police as far as we know. It was a worried stepmother who eventually got the ball rolling.
• Epstein stopped having sex with a girl when she became visibly distressed, apologized, and paid her $1,000 for her inconvenience. She didn't go to the police.
• Epstein was pretty decent looking, certainly for his age; and had a fit, tanned body.
• There is no evidence Epstein had any of the girls tortured or murdered, despite suggestions of victims and witnesses that they were afraid something would happen to them if they talked.
• A lot of the girls were 16 or above, which is legal in some countries. Belgium is an example of that.

Some of the victims were later demanding damages in the range of $50 million. Looking at the police report, none of these girls deserve this amount of money. Maybe 1 or 2 deserve a million, but that's about it - the rest of any restitution should go to a charity or to the state. A lot of the girls don't deserve anything at all and should be lucky that they were able to walk away without being indicted as co-conspirators. Underage or not, when they started recruiting other girls, that's exactly what they became.

Obviously Epstein had to be punished severely in order to make it very clear that minors are always strongly protected by the law and that they are completely off-limits when it comes to sexual endeavors, no matter how much money you put into their pockets or how complicit you make them.

At the same time, underage girls who voluntarily do sexual favors for adults should never be allowed to financially profit from this relationship, as this will encourage "certain" girls to seek out adults, have sex, only to turn them in, exaggerate the facts, and receive a nice financial reward in the process. It goes without saying that the tabloids and tons of lawyers would only be too happy to "support" these victims in their crusade against the perpetrator. None of it should be acceptable.

2006: state attorney protects Epstein; police chief protests

Despite the evidence presented in the May 2006 probable cause affidavit of the Palm Beach Police Department, and the extreme sensitivity these days surrounding cases of pedophilia, it has to be said that Palm Beach County state attorney Barry Krischer went unusually soft on Epstein.

Instead of pursuing his own charges, in a very usual step, he brought the case in front of a grand jury, something which in Florida is generally only done in cases of capital crime. [3] Krischer provided the grand jury with a wide range of possible charges and brought the case in such a manner that the grand jury only charged Epstein with "soliciting prostitution" [4] instead of the more realistic proposal by the police of "four counts of Unlawful Sexual Activity with a Minor [and one count of] Lewd and Lascivious Molestation." [5] As U.S. district attorney R. Alexander "Alex" Acosta later explained it, initially Krischer, "due to concerns regarding the quality of the evidence", even tried to limit the charges against Epstein to "one count of aggravated assault with no intent to commit a felony. That charge would have resulted in no jail time, no requirement to register as a sexual offender and no restitution for the underage victims." [6] It's hard to see how anyone who has read the probable cause affidavit can genuinely agree to such extremely lenient charges.

Very quickly after Krischer's unusual decision to forward the Epstein case to the grand jury, Palm Beach Police Department chief Michael Reiter "accused prosecutors of giving Mr. Epstein special treatment and asked the state attorney, Barry E. Krischer, to remove himself from the case." [7] Next, Reiter refers the case to the FBI. In turn, the FBI hands it to the U.S. Attorney General's office, headed by Andrew Napolitano, who, unlike Krischer or Epstein, happens to be a conservative Republican. Napolitano's office comes to the conclusion that Krischer's office would have to pursue tougher charges. A jail sentence has to be included and Epstein will have to be registered as a sex offender. [8]

What happens next? A full year later, on September 24, 2007, Epstein's attorneys negotiate a plea deal with Alex Acosta, Miami's top federal prosecutor and a representative of Barry Krischer's state attorney's office. Per the plea deal, Epstein will plead guilty to "solicitation of prostitution and procurement of minors for prostitution", agree to serve 18 months in jail for it, and register as a sex offender. He will also agree that "approximately thirty-four (34) other young girls [can] receive payments from him..." [9] In addition, the deal protects a number of Epstein's closest female assistants and sex partners who knew what was going on, or even were involved themselves. On this issue the plea bargain reads: "the United States also agrees that it will not institute any criminal charges against any of the potential co-conspirators of Epstein, including but not limited to Sarah Kellen, Adriana Ross, Lesley Groff, or Nadia Marcinkova." [10] The "not limited to" aspect is interesting wording and will later lead to speculation of a cover up of a wider network of high-profile abusers. [11] In July 2019 the plea deal even leads to the resignation of Acosta as Trump's secretary of labor. [12]

Epstein has a month to sign the plea deal, but manages to delay signing until June 30, 2008, at which the point the FBI and state attorney's office congratulate each other with this "proud moment". [13] Epstein disappears to jail (not prison) that same month, supposedly for 18 months, but is released almost sixths months early, on July 22, 2009. [14] On top of that, in his Palm Beach county jail Epstein is allowed to have his own private wing, complete with a personal bodyguard that he pays for. Not that he spends a huge amount of time here, as he is put on a work release program, allowing him to spent up to 16 hours per day at his Palm Beach home for six days a week. Except for one day in the week, Epstein basically only sleeps in the local jail. On top of that, he is also allowed to travel to his New York mansion and his estate in the U.S. Virgin Islands. As U.S. attorney R. Alexander Acosta later agreed, "Epstein appears to have received highly unusual treatment while in jail [to the point that it] undermined the purpose of the jail sentence." [15]

To a large extent Epstein has state attorney Barry Krischer to thank for his extremely lenient sentencing. As it turns out, Krischer is not exactly uncontroversial either. A quick check reveals that his secretary accused him of sexual harassment right before his election as state attorney in 1992. Bizarrely, the only other candidate in the election was accused by one former wife of always being late with alimony payments, with another claiming that he was a heavy drinker who had threatened her. As the Sun Sentinel accurately stated at the time, "It's unfortunate voters have to choose between two candidates who have such questions in their backgrounds", and maybe less accurately added, "[but it] would be irresponsible to refuse to make a choice between them." Despite leaning towards Krischer, maybe the newspaper should also have called for a general protest and boycott of the elections. [16]

2008: Epstein's corrupt plea deal; abuse age drops to 13

While Epstein's plea deal involves private negotiations with lawyers of several dozen victims for financial compensation, not all of them were particularly satisfied with the terms of the plea deal, or the fact that they have been kept in the dark about it. That becomes clear, for example, in an affidavit of Bradley Edwards, attorney for victims E.W. and L.M.

A first interesting detail of this affidavit is that these victims, apparently, were among the "more than forty (40) young girls [Epstein] repeatedly sexually assaulted ... between 2002 and 2005 in his mansion in West Palm Beach [in addition to there being] overwhelming proof that the number of underage girls molested by Epstein through his scheme was in the hundreds." [17] That's an incredible amount of girls Epstein victimized, much more than what can be determined from the initial Palm Beach Police Department's probable cause affidavit. Another interesting detail is that L.M. claims to have been 13-years-old when Epstein sexually assaulted her a first time [18], which is one year younger than the youngest girl in the probable cause affidavit.

As for the say victims E.W. and L.M. had in the plea agreement, they had none. Most likely none of the girls had. In fact, they weren't even informed about it. Looking at the affidavit of Edwards, on January 10, 2008 E.W. and L.M. are informed a first time by the FBI that the investigation into Epstein's sexual abuse is still ongoing. They are informed again on May 30 of that year. In mid June 2008, it is Edwards who contacts assistant prosecutor Ann Marie Villafana to tell her he is now representing E.W. and L.M. and asks her about the status of the investigation. The provided answer is the same as the FBI's: the investigation is ongoing and, based on the available evidence, there's a good chance that Epstein will be convicted. However, neither Villafana nor the FBI mention the plea deal to E.W., L.M., or her attorney that is lying on the table for Epstein. If signed, it will block any further investigations or prosecutions of the billionaire. [19]

As already discussed, Epstein reluctantly signs the plea agreement on Monday, June 30, 2008. Villafana informs Edwards of this scheduled plea hearing, but not until Friday, June 27, around 4:15 p.m., when everything and everybody is about to leave for the weekend. She also doesn't inform Edwards that the entire investigation and prosecution will be halted if Epstein signs the plea agreement. [20] This must have been a deliberate ploy, because in a later-released email of Villafana to Epstein lawyer Jay Lefkowitz at the time the plea agreement was constructed, Villafana wrote to "prefer not to highlight for the judge all of the other crimes [of Epstein] and all of the other persons that we could charge..." [21] So neither Villafana nor anyone else at the State Attorney's Office keeping Edwards or the victims informed about the plea agreement fits into a wider pattern of deceit.

After learning the details of the plea agreement over the course of the following week, on July 7 Edwards files an action based on the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) to protest the unfair and even unlawful treatment of his clients E.W. and L.M. by the State Attorney's Office. E.W. and L.M. themselves only hear about the existence of the plea agreement on July 11, 2008, 10 months after it was first negotiated. [22]

What is important to mention is that in later news reports and most other court documents, E.W. and L.M. are referred to as Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2. Jane Doe #2 joined the CVRA lawsuit very quickly after Edwards had filed it for Jane Doe #1. [23] However, at a later stage Jane Doe #3 and Jane Doe #4, other victims of Epstein who were also represented by Edwards, were not allowed to join the same CVRA case. According to Edwards this was because:

This CVRA case dragged on into 2016, when this author was attempting to finish up an early version of this article. In July 2016 it was reported that the two victim-witness had received financial compensation from Epstein, but were now attempting to sue the government over the struck plea deal, seeking to create "fundamental changes" to the system. [25] Jane Doe #3 has attempted to join the CVRA case, apparently with little luck. Her request was dismissed in April 2015, with the "lurid" details of her account being wiped from the record by George W. Bush-appointed District Court judge Kenneth Marra. [26] In response to that ruling, Alan Dershowitz was trying to get Jane Doe #3 to testify under oath, in an effort to get her convicted on perjury. [27]

By July 2010, with Epstein already having finished his sentence for a year, he had "settled more than a dozen lawsuits brought by underage girls," with seven victims having reached over $1 million deals that month. [28]

2011: Cyrus Vance Jr.: Rockefeller DA protecting Epstein

Evidence for a cover up surrounding the Epstein case continued to pile up. In 2011, two years after Epstein's release from jail, Jennifer Gaffney, deputy chief of the Sex Crimes Unit of the Manhattan DA Office, "forcefully" made the case to the court to have Epstein's sex offender status lowered to the "lowest possible classification", effectively meaning that he would not have to register as a sex offender for life. Judge Ruth Pickholz didn't go along:

"I'm a little overwhelmed because I have never seen a prosecutor's office do anything like this: ... make a downward argument like this [not even with offenders] much less troubling than this one." [29]

Guess who Gaffney's boss was? Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr. If that name sounds familiar, it's because his father, Cyrus Vance, Sr., was one of the most connected superclass members of the 20th century. Vance, Sr. served as a trustee (1970-1976) and chair (1975-1976) of the Rockefeller Foundation, was a founding Trilateral Commission member in 1973, headed the Carter administration of 1977-1981 with Trilateral Commission founder Zbigniew Brzezinski, visited Bilderberg in 1970, and was involved for the rest in anything from the Pilgrims Society to the Bretton Woods Committee and the Ditchley Foundation.

Vance, Jr. claimed not to be aware of Gaffney's plea in front of the court, and that it had been "a mistake". [30] One wonders how many people believe this explanation.

Before leaving the D.A.'s office in October 2018 for the private sector, Gaffney also played a key role in the prosecution of disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein - where similar unusual "mistakes" have been made. [31]

VIRGINIA ROBERTS:

Chronology of media attention: 2007-

Of all the victims and accessories Epstein created in the late 1990s and early 2000s with his pedophile recruitment schemes, only one has truly had a voice. That's Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the only victim of Epstein among many dozens to give up her anonymity and provide a detailed testimony of her experiences to the media. Whether that's a coincidence or not, Virginia also just happens to have been among Epstein's tiny handful of "special" girls who eventually were allowed to "entertain" his friends. While most other girls simply provided massages with happy endings, whether it be 5 or 500 times in total, Roberts traveled the world with Epstein on a regular basis, meeting many of his friends. Before we get into additional detail of Virginia's story, let's first take a look at how her story entered the limelight.

It was Sharon Churcher of the Mail on Sunday / Daily Mail who was on the trail of Virginia Roberts almost from the beginning. Statements in later newspaper articles indicate that Churcher already published part of Virginia's story in the (Daily) Mail on Sunday in 2007. This appears to be correct, looking at an April 2007 article of Churcher in the Daily Mail, in which it is explained how Prince Andrew and Epstein were introduced to each other by Ghislaine Maxwell, and how "during his [2001] Thai holiday with Epstein, Andrew was photographed surrounded by topless women on a yacht." [32] Talk about tying together all the chief suspects in the Epstein case.

The Daily Mail publication was based on leaked documents of police chief Michael Reiter asking the FBI to look into the case. It appears that Virginia Roberts was not yet talking to Sharon Churcher directly. In fact, according to the affidavit of Bradley Edwards, it wasn't until the signed plea agreement became known to the victim-witnesses in July 2008 that his Jane Doe - apparently Virginia Roberts - decided to start talking to the media. Even then it appears she waited until it had become fully clear that she wouldn't be allowed to join the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) case of Jane Doe #1 and #2 against the favorable treatment of Jeffrey Epstein by the State Attorney's Office.

By 2010 articles on the Epstein affair were published that contained more detailed information from Virginia Roberts' testimony, such as the name Jean-Luc Brunel. [33] The first series of exposés mentioning Virginia by name, and publishing her story of being an Epstein-trained sex slave for Prince Andrew, began on Sunday, February 27, 2011, in the Mail on Sunday, followed by the online edition of the Daily Mail on March 2, 2011. [34] This was repeated with much greater international intensity starting on January 2, 2015, although relatively little additional details were provided. [35]

Virginia Roberts: Basic credibility

Reading various newspaper reports, Roberts had a troubled youth. Born in Sacramento, California, she was sexually assaulted by a person close to her family, which led to the breakup of her parents. She went to live with an aunt at age 11, but repeatedly ran away. Living on the streets, she slept with "at least" two older men - i.e. pedophiles - in return for food." [36] At age 14, in 1997, she went to live with her father, Sky Roberts, who had moved to Palm Beach, Florida. In 1998 she accused two guys of rape here, but the prosecutor's office refused to bring the case to trial. The fact that Roberts was living in a "medical facility" and had been raped by two "friends" after passing out from "drinking alcohol and smoking pot in a wooded area" probably all contributed to the prosecutor's office not taking the case too seriously. [37]

Very significant is the fact that Virginia's father worked as maintenance manager at Donald Trump's country club, Mar-a-Lago. Roberts herself went to work here "folding towels at the pool" [38] and as a changing room assistant. [39] Right after her 15th birthday in 1998, Virginia met Ghislaine Maxwell at the Mar-a-Lago. Maxwell took an interest in her after she noticed Virginia reading an anatomy book. [40] Because of her looks and, coincidentally, her desire to become a masseuse, Ghislaine invited Virginia to become a masseuse for Jeffrey Epstein. Assuming Ghislaine and Epstein were respectable individuals, her father gave his blessing and even drove her to Epstein's mansion. By the time he left, Epstein was already laying butt-naked on a massage table in a different room, with his daughter soon being fondled by a topless Ghislaine.

Apparently the father never figured something was out of the ordinary until many years later. This come across as overly naive and bizarre, not to mention a case of bad parenting. Then there's the equally bizarre coincidence that father and daughter worked at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago. However, it appears as if others around Virginia, including an aunt, uncle, brother, a friend and a boyfriend, also had no clue about the abuse. Here and there a few questions were raised, but that's where it stayed:

"Aunt Carol said: ... 'My brother thought it was all very legitimate. When Virginia told us she'd met Prince Andrew we were thrilled. Virginia gave my Mum a copy of the picture of Andrew with his arm around her...

"An old friend of Virginia's recalled: 'We had our doubts about why exactly Jeffrey had picked this young girl to be his favourite masseuse, when she didn't know much about it, especially when he started flying her around the world. But she didn't say anything about the abuse until much later.

"'Once she'd told her boyfriend at the time the truth they then decided she shouldn't work there any longer. But Epstein wanted her there and was used to getting his way. He lured her back...'" [41]

Looking at the claims of these friends and family of Virginia, as well as the picture with Prince Andrew and a number of other photos with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, the basics of her story - how she was recruited by Ghislaine Maxwell, sexually groomed by Jeffrey Epstein, and given to Prince Andrew - appear to be fully legit.

Why Epstein took so much a shine to her, might well be because she was much more willing to sexually please him than any of the girls described in the earlier-discussed probably cause affidavit. From these available victim-witness testimonies, Epstein had great trouble extracting sex from his underage masseuses. Many stripped to their underwear and allowed Epstein to jerk off to them, but that was about it. Not so with Roberts, who already had a history of sex and sexual abuse: "Jeffrey bought me jewellery – diamonds were his favourite – and wonderful furniture. He was paying me very well because I'd give him sex whenever he wanted it." [42]

It wasn't all well-compensated sex and negativity either, according to Virginia. She described Epstein and Ghislaine as free-spirited and fun to be around. They would eat popcorn while watching shows as Sex And The City. [43] They would also travel all over the world: from Epstein's mansions in Palm Beach, New York, New Mexico and the Virgin Islands to locations as Tangier (Morocco), Paris, Spain and London. [44] In addition, there were all the famous and important people Virginia Roberts got to meet through Jeffrey Epstein.

One certainly gets the impression that the sexual abuse of Virginia Roberts to a large extent involved a mutually beneficial relationship. The evidence for this is right mixed in with the evidence that Virginia's story is accurate:

• Virginia's story is coherent as to how she was recruited, how she "escaped", and why she eventually went to the media.


• She was a very attractive teenager.


• A picture exists of Virginia with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell, with other pictures showing an underage Virginia at various Epstein-owned estates.


• Another "masseuse" for Epstein, Johanna Sjoberg, confirmed Virginia's sexual interactions with Prince Andrew (and herself), and also that Epstein and modeling agency friend Jean-Luc Brunel were continually sending underage girls across the globe to service their wealthy friends. [45]


• Virginia's family and friends backed up her story of having met Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew, including the existence of the photo at the time.


• Andrew's love of young "models" has not just been noticed in Thailand on Epstein's yacht: "The prince was also at a Manhattan cocktail party thrown that year by Miss Maxwell which was filled with young Russian 'models' – some of the other guests were 'horrified', said an onlooker." [46]


• Philip Guderyon, who was one of her boyfriends at the time she worked for Epstein, described her as Epstein's "head bitch" who had "like nine or 10 girls she used to bring to him. ... She and the other girls would walk out of there smiling, with their little bathing suits on, like they had just come from the beach. She'd have like $4,000. And then I'd take them all to the mall and they'd get their nails done. [She was] a money-hungry sex kitten." [47]


• Crystal Figueroa, a sister to another boyfriend of Roberts at the time, told the media how Roberts asked her at one point "if she knew anyone 'slutty' so they could be sent to Epstein." [48]


• Former boyfriend Anthony Figueroa recalled in 2015 that Virginia felt pressured by Epstein into sleeping with Prince Andrew, about whom he "didn't hear anything good". But Figueroa also explained, "She would always ask me to try to find girls for him." [49]


• Virginia's later Australian neighbors described her as being a good mother and trustworthy. [50]


• Before and after his conviction, Epstein has remained close to Dershowitz and Prince Andrew [51]


• Already in the late 1990s, Vanity Fair columnist Michael Wolff noticed three young models following Epstein onto his private plane. He indicated that they were probably 18-20 years old. He didn't report this at the time. [52]


• In October 2002 Donald Trump told New York Magazine: "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social life." [53]


• In 2003 reporter Vicky Ward found evidence of Epstein's sexual affairs with minors, but Vanity Fair refused to publish the material. [54]

It would be nice if the ink of Virginia's "sex slave diary" containing details on Prince Andrew and such [55] can be validated as indeed dating back to 2001-2002, but overall it seems that the basic story of grooming and child abuse as told by Virginia Roberts is quite accurate.

Virginia Roberts: famous people she met

Already in 2011, Virginia Roberts described having met:

• Prince Andrew: The second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. Virginia claims she had sex with him on several occasions. [56]


• Bill Clinton: Met him twice, with Virginia claiming he "didn't take [Epstein's] bait" in the form of two likely underage girls. Another Epstein victim, Chauntae Davies, who was not underage, was part of the 2002 Africa trip of Epstein and Clinton. Despite claiming to have been raped by Epstein, she also explained that Clinton was "a complete gentleman... charming and sweet." [57]


• Al Gore: Virginia: "The Gores seemed like a beautiful couple when I met them. ... There might have been a couple of other girls there on that trip but I could never have imagined this guy would do anything wrong." Al Gore has been accused of sexual harassment and coercion on another occasion, however. [58]


• Donald Trump: In 2011 Virginia described meeting Trump as: "Donald Trump was also a good friend of Jeffrey's. He didn't partake in sex with any of us but he flirted with me. He'd laugh and tell Jeffrey, "You've got the life."" [59]


• Senator George Mitchell: A Democrat superclass member. Elected the first chairman of George Soros' International Crisis Group in 1995. In 2003 President Bush picked him to serve as the initial vice chairman of the super-sensitive 9/11 Commission under chairman Henry Kissinger. Criticism over Kissinger's appointment led to Kissinger and him being replaced by two other superclass members. Mitchell also is a Bilderberg steering committee member and a 2011 visitor of the Munich Security Conference. Virginia described him as being "very close to Jeffrey". However, no hint of him having had sex with her. [60]


• Lord Peter Mandelson: a politician and key Rothschild agent, described by Virginia as, "I remember [Mandelson] being at the house in New York and I was introduced to him at a dinner party. He and Jeffrey talked business together. I assumed they were in business together. I was never asked to give him a massage." [61]


• Matt Groening: The Bohemian Grove and Edge Foundation's Billionaires' Dinners-visiting Simpsons creator. She only gave him a foot massage. He was very nice to her. [62]


• Naomi Campbell: Good friend of Epstein, but described as "fake [and] a real bitch" by Virginia. [63]

These names all appeared in Epstein's leaked contact book, or were already known to be friends of Epstein. Bill Clinton's famous 2002 trip through Africa with actors Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker, all on Jeffrey Epstein's jet, is the best-known example of this. [64]

Virginia Roberts: famous people she had sex with

More importantly, by name, Virginia has only admitted to having had sex with four friends of Epstein while she was a minor. These individuals are:

• Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's long-time girlfriend;
• Prince Andrew, Epstein royal friend and apparent blackmail subject;
• Alan Dershowitz, Epstein's lawyer;
• and Paris-based model agency owner Jean Luc Brunel.

Sex with Ghislaine and Jean Luc Brunel happened on a very regular basis. Ghislaine would also shoot pictures of Virginia having sex with other girls. Sex with Prince Andrew occurred on three occasions, with Virginia receiving $15,000 the first time from Epstein, but only $400 the second time. With Dershowitz she had sex on roughly half a dozen. Of course, all these individuals denied when the accusations became public.

These were not the only individuals, however, Virginia had sex with. She left out a number of very prominent individuals that even after all these years have not been identified by name. In March 2011 the Daily Mail's Sharon Churcher quoted Virginia as saying:

Fascinatingly, searching portions of this quote on Google between quotation marks, puts the original Daily Mail article around 10 of 14th place, behind a slew of third-rate conspiracy blogs. It seems Google is not just "failing" ISGP, but also to an extent the Daily Mail - which happens to be relatively popular among populist-supporting candidates, possibly because of its relatively uncensored comment section.

In January 2015, the Daily Mail reported:

France comes to mind as the only European country with a president and we know that Virginia has visited Paris with Epstein. As ISGP has already discussed, child sexual abuse, even very sadistic, is totally acceptable among French elites. This is all speculation though. Time will tell if more details and evidence come out.

Virginia Roberts: the case against Alan Dershowitz

Accusations of sexual abuse against former Epstein friend and lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, are important as well. Looking at Dershowitz's biography, he appears to be a first-rate controlled-opposition asset with deep ties to both the liberal and neocon establishments. Once the favorite liberal debater of elite conservative CIA representative William Buckley Jr., as of 2019, Dershowitz advises Trump on the Middle East (supporting a two-state solution for Israel) and on Supreme Court candidates. [67]

Public accusations against Dershowitz don't seem to have surfaced until January 2015, when the account of Virginia Roberts basically went on repeat in relation to what was exposed in 2011. As for the accusations against Dershowitz, in a January 15, 2015-signed affidavit, Virginia Roberts doubled-down on the recently-surfaced accusations as follows:

"24. Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz was around Epstein frequently [in 1998-2001]. Dershowitz was so comfortable with the sex that was going on that he would even come and chat with Epstein while I was giving oral sex to Epstein.

"25. I had sexual intercourse with Dershowitz at least six times. The first time was when I was about 16, early on in my servitude to Epstein, and it continued until I was 19.

"26. The first time we had sex took place in New York in Epstein's home. It was in Epstein's room (not the massage room). ... [Later also] at Epstein's house in Palm Beach [and] at Little Saint James Island... I also had sex with Dershowitz at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in New Mexico in the massage room off of the indoor pool area, which was still being painted. ...

"30. Another sexual encounter between me and Dershowitz happened on Epstein's airplane. Another girl was present on the plane with us."

Dershowitz denied ever having met Roberts and soon ran his own counter-attack in the form of a private detective investigation to find dirt on Roberts. He also began a libel suit against her. At one point, Dershowitz claimed that the accusations against him were a blackmail/revenge attempt by fellow legal titan David Boies, in this round the lawyer of Virginia Roberts and maybe the more questionable Sarah Ransome, against whom Dershowitz had earlier filed an unethical bar charge. [68]

Ransome's claims might be more questionable than Virginia - she contacted the New York Post with claims that she has video of Bill and Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and Richard Branson all having sex with underage girls on Epstein's property - but at the same time it appears Dershowitz may have been referring to the "sealed" [69] New York Post emails of Ransome when he stated that "prominent people [will be] in handcuffs once these emails come out." [70]

All this bickering is nice and well, but the thing is, the accusations of Virginia Roberts against Alan Dershowitz go back to at least a September 22, 2010-signed "Statement of Undisputed Facts" by Bradley Edwards, attorney for victims E.W. and L.M. In that same statement we find evidence that Dershowitz was among Epstein's closest friends and that Epstein's housekeeper, Alfredo Rodriguez, testified that Dershowitz was regularly present while Epstein was having sex with his underage "masseuses". Pp. 26-27:

"72. Edwards provided notice that he intended to depose Alan Dershowitz. Edwards possessed a legitimate basis for doing so:

"(a) Dershowitz is believed to have been friends with Epstein for many years; (b) in one news article Dershowitz comments that, "I'm on my 20th book... The only person outside of my immediate family that I send drafts to is Jeffrey" - The Talented Mr. Epstein, By Vicky Ward on January, 2005 in Published Work, Vanity Fair (See article attached as Exhibit "00");

"(c) Epstein's housekeeper Alfredo Rodriguez testified that Dershowitz stayed at Epstein's house during the years when Epstein was assaulting minor females on a daily basis;

"(d) Rodriguez testified that Dershowitz was at Epstein's house at times when underage females where there being molested by Epstein (see Alfredo Rodriguez deposition at 278-280, 385, 426-427);

"(e) Dershowitz reportedly assisted in attempting to persuade the Palm Beach State Attorney's Office that because the underage females alleged to have been victims of Epstein's abuse lacked credibility and could not be believed that they were at Epstein's house, when Dershowitz himself was an eyewitness to their presence at the house;

"(f) Jane Doe No. 102 [Virginia Roberts] stated generally that Epstein forced her to be sexually exploited by not only Epstein but also Epstein's "adult male peers, including royalty, politicians, academicians, businessmen, and/or other professional and personal acquaintances" — categories that Dershowitz and acquaintances of Dershowitz fall into;

"(g) during the years 2002-2005 Alan Dershowitz was on Epstein's plane on several occasions according to the flight logs produced by Epstein's pilot and information (described above) suggested that sexual assaults may have taken place on the plane;

"(h) Epstein donated $30 Million one year to the university at which Dershowitz teaches."

To make matters worse for Dershowitz, he's been caught lying about his relationship to Epstein in a January 15, 2015 Law.com interview. Asked, "Isn't it a bad idea for a lawyer to be so close to a notorious client?", Dershowitz replied:

"Let me tell you how I met him. I was introduced to him by Lady de Rothschild as an academic colleague. He was friendly with [top Rockefeller globalist and economist] Larry Summers... He was in the process of contributing $50 million [note: $30 million] to Harvard for evolutionary biology." [71]

The problem here is that a flight log from December 1997 reveals that he was on Epstein's private jet with "one unidentified "female," a "Hazel," a "Claire," and [Ghislaine] Maxwell." Other flight logs show Dershowitz was on Epstein's private jet in 1998, 1999 and 2005, in the last case with a certain "Tatianna". When Gawker confronted Dershowitz with this information, he became evasive, claiming the unidentified female "could have been my mother" and that "Tatianna" may have been "Epstein's girlfriend." What Dershowitz did acknowledge is that his "first substantive contact with [Epstein] was to fly with him to Les Wexner's house to attend dinner with Shimon Peres and John Glenn." [72]

Despite having been exonerated by the FBI in 2016 [73], the evidence is certainly staking up against Dershowitz. At the very least it appears he knew what Epstein was doing with various underage girls. In addition, according to Virginia, Epstein never removed the pictures of his underage "masseuses" strewn around the house, some of them involving nudity. A later police video of Epstein's house confirmed these "pictures and others — many focusing on Epstein's fixation with young girls' derrieres — are upstairs in and around his bedroom or in the pool house." One picture on Epstein's wall was blurred out in the police video, because it involved "one of a child aged no more than six or seven bending over in a tiny dress." [74]

EPSTEIN: ELITISM

Epstein's superclass grooming: Mossad, Trilateral Commission, CFR

Epstein's elite ties are not often highlighted in any detail, apart from him being connected to Clinton and Trump. There is a lot to be discussed here though.

• 1976: Epstein, a Dalton math teacher, has his mathematical talents discovered by the father of one of his students. The father introduces him to superclass member Alan "Abe" Greenberg at Bear Stearns, where Epstein soon goes to work. [75]


• 1980s: Epstein is climbing the ranks at Bear Stears, which by then counts Donald Trump among its most important clients. [76] Greenberg can be found on the board of United Jewish Appeal, were, from 1988 to 2011, he would run the UJA-Federation's annual Wall Street dinner. [77] He also is a board member and major financier for years on end of the Jerusalem Foundation [78], founded by his good friend Teddy Kollek [79], who used to run Haganah/Mossad operations in the U.S. with the Mossad's Reuven Shiloah, with whom he also brokered the 1951 CIA-Mossad alliance. [80] Former CIA director John Deutch in the 1990s, close David Rockefeller ally John Whitehead, and various leading Zionists could be found on the U.S. board of the Jerusalem Foundation over the years. [81]
  
  Furthermore, Greenberg used to sit on the board of the Joint Distribution Committee, along with the Rothschilds, Bronfmans, Edmond Safra, Lord Weidenfeld and yet more leading Zionists. [82]
  
  As for non-Zionist connections, Greenberg also becomes a member of the super-elite Alfalfa Club, together with various Rockefellers, Warren Buffett, most of the Bush family, Dick Cheney, George Shultz, Zbigniew Brzezinski and many other elites.


• Early 1990s: Epstein's girlfriend becomes Ghislaine Maxwell, the favorite daughter of the recently deceased British-Jewish billionaire Robert Maxwell. Epstein provides Ghislaine, who lost most of the family's fortune, with the lifestyle that she was used to when growing up, with one close friend describing the relationship as "[she] seemed to be half ex-girlfriend, half employee, half best friend, and fixer." She also was a whore madam for Epstein. [83]
  
  As for Ghislaine's father, Robert Maxwell, after World War II, MI6 had tried to recruit him as an agent. He refused and was classified by MI6 as a "Zionist - loyal only to Israel". During later decades Maxwell became one of the leading super-spies for Israel's Mossad, with suspicions surfacing that he was assassinated in 1991 after threatening the Mossad to bail his businesses out to the tune of $1 billion. [84]





• Early 1990s: Epstein grows very close to Jewish billionaire Leslie Wexner, whose financial advisor he becomes. [85] In 1991 Wexner becomes a founding member of the Zionist "Mega Group", counting the involvement of the Bronfmans, Max Fisher, Laurence Tisch and Steven Spielberg. [86] Wexner can also be found on the board of Conrad Black's Hollinger International, together with the absolute elite of the elite: Henry Kissinger, Sir Evelyn de Rothschild, Lord Jacob Rothschild, close David Rockefeller friends Paul Volcker and Zbigniew Brzezinski, Richard Perle and many others. Wexner developed similar elite ties as a lifetime trustee of the Aspen Institute, along with top superclass members as Lester Crown, David Gergen, Henry Kissinger, Sandra Day O'Connor, Paul Volcker, Thomas Pickering, etc. [87]
  
  As for Epstein, by 1995 he was a director of the Wexner Foundation and the Wexner Heritage Foundation [88], which maintain the Wexner-Israel Fellowship in coordination with Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. Epstein, a science lover, also gets involved in the Charles Darwin Society of the New York Academy of Science. [89]





• June 1995: No later than June 1995, Epstein becomes a member of David Rockefeller's Trilateral Commission, alongside persons as George Soros, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Paul Volcker and others. In Trilateral Commission membership lists, Epstein is listed as "President, New Albany Property, Inc.", a real estate company that he cleaned up and ran for Leslie Wexner. He will remain a Trilateral Commission member until at least March 2007, at which point he already is under investigation for two years for large-scale child trafficking and abuse, with the New York Times having dropped his name in this regard in September 2006.


• November 1995: Epstein is appointed a trustee of Rockefeller University, along with Nancy Kissinger [90], the wife of Henry Kissinger, whom he should already know through Greenberg, Wexner, Maxwell and possibly the Trilateral Commission. David Rockefeller and his close friend Brooke Astor are both listed as "Life Trustees/Voting Members", with other close superclass friends as John Whitehead and Maurice Greenberg also serving on the board, as is David's son, Dr. Richard Rockefeller. Even David Koch is to be found on the board of trustees.
  
  Certainly by 2002, Epstein is gone from the board of trustees, with Nancy Kissinger still serving. [91]


• 1995-2009: Epstein is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and part of its "Chairmen's Circle" of donors, until well after accusations of large-scale child abuse surfaced. [92]


• 1997: Epstein first meets scholar Alan Dershowitz, who, among many other positions, will end up becoming a trustee of neocon NGO Monitor and a "Distinguished Senior Fellow" of the neocon, anti-immigration Gatestone Institute. Both groups counted the involvement of former CIA director and top neocon James Woolsey. [93]


• 1999-2000, 2002: Epstein is a founding participant in the Edge Foundation's Billionaires' Dinners, which is part of the Technology, Entertainment and Design (TED) Talks. Serge Brin and other leaders of Google visit annually. The same goes for Nathan Myhrvold and other leaders of Microsoft. Jeff Bezos of Amazon and the Sun Valley (like many here) is a regular. Rupert Murdoch visits in 2002; Bran Ferren, an unofficial representative of the high-tech national security state, mingles with the crowd the same years as Epstein. Key atheist, "rent-a-skeptic" scientists as Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Steven Pinker, as well as Edge Foundation founder and head John Brockman, fly in on Epstein's private jet. To what extent underage girls are present is unknown.
  
  


• December 2000: Both Epstein and partner-in-crime Ghislaine Maxwell attend an exclusive 94-people dinner hosted by Conrad Black, founder of Hollinger International and a member of the Bilderberg steering committee [94], the Pilgrims Society, and the 1001 Club. Among the participants are Henry Kravis, Michael Bloomberg, "conservative godfather" William F. Buckley Jr., Norman Podhoretz and wife Midge Decter, Richard Perle, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, Richard Holbrooke, key Clinton friend and Bilderberg steering committee member Vernon Jordan, Henry Kissinger, who was spotted talking to Donald Trump; Happy Rockefeller, the widow of Nelson Rockefeller; Lord Weidenfeld, Elaine Wolfensohn, the wife of World Bank president and close David Rockefeller friend James Wolfensohn; and Mort Zuckerman. [95] Most of these people Epstein would have already known through Greenberg, Wexner, Maxwell, the CFR and the Trilateral Commission. They represent the elite of the elite - of the elite.


• 2000: Epstein sets up the Jeffrey Epstein IV Foundation through which he donates up to $200 million per year to science projects involving evolutionary biology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, cancer, and HIV. In this capacity he becomes associated with quark-discoverer Murray Gell-Mann, a science board co-chair of the Epstein-funded Santa Fe Institute [96], and Stephen Hawking, both also leading atheist skeptics.
  
  Gell-Mann, for example, has been a fellow of the Committee for Scientific Inquiry and Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP), a director of Southern California Skeptics (SCS) and a speaker at the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF). ISGP has always considered these groups CIA, because they only debunk artificially built-up CIA disinformers that appear on shows as Coast to Coast AM. They engage in nothing but roleplay. Gell-Mann, who already noted in 2011 that "there are always pretty ladies around" when he goes to dinner with Epstein [97], is more interesting than average, because he has also been a JASON Group national security scientist, a CFR member and a 1979-2002 director of the Rockefeller-tied "liberal CIA" MacArthur Foundation.


• Early 2000s: Senator George Mitchell is a regular visitor to Epstein's house and described by Virginia as "very close to Jeffrey". Mitchell is a Democrat superclass member, elected the first chairman of George Soros' International Crisis Group in 1995. [98] In 2003 President Bush picked him to serve as the initial vice chairman of the super-sensitive 9/11 Commission under chairman Henry Kissinger. Criticism over Kissinger's appointment led to Kissinger and him being replaced by two other superclass members. Mitchell also was a Bilderberg steering committee member [99] and a 2011 visitor of the Munich Security Conference.


• Early 2000s: A business partner of Epstein in England becomes key Rothschild agent Lord Peter Mandelson. [100]


• 2002: Epstein takes Bill Clinton and (now disgraced) actor Kevin Spacey for an AIDS awareness tour through Africa.


• 2003: Epstein provides Harvard with $30 million for its Program for Evolutionary Dynamics. According to Epstein friend Alan Dershowitz, Lynn Forester de Rothschild introduces Epstein and Dershowitz to each other, although the two have already known each other since at least 1997. [101]





• 2013: Epstein finances Michael Bloomberg's Young Men's Initiative, along with George Soros' Open Society Institute. [102] He is also listed as a member of Harvard's Mind, Brain and Behavior Committee. [103]

Did these elite friends know? One assumes so, just looking at the protection he received in both Florida and New York City from the prosecutor's office, or at some of the old pictures of Epstein hanging around with young girls, or various elites visiting his home, or some of the comments made about him, most notably Donald Trump's 2002 statement that Epstein "likes beautiful women ... many of them are on the younger side." Vanity Fair refused to publish evidence in 2003 that Epstein was persuining underaged women at that point. In January 2020 the widow of top superclass member Senator John McCain said:

"A girl from my daughter's high school was one of his victims. ... Epstein was hiding in plain sight. We all knew about him. We all knew what he was doing. But we had no legal aspect - of people who would go after him." [104]

Then again, when Epstein's case first made it to the headlines in September 2006 [105], he did not have many of his elite associations anymore. Still, looking at the 2013-launched Young Men Initiative, it may well be that Epstein's superclass association would have been rebuild to an extent over time. Being super-rich and a great money-maker clearly will do that. The constant legal pressure of his victims, combined with media attention, came to thwart that, however, initially in January 2015 and then much more final in 2019.

Ironically, if Michael Bloomberg, the billionaire Democrat candidate of 2020, ever makes it to the presidency, it means Epstein had ties to three U.S. presidents: two on the Democrat side and one on the Republican.

The game now repeats itself with a clearly very guilty Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell, who have been receiving protection from the governments of Great Britain and Israel. [106] If they manage to stay out of the hands of the justice system, it will be interesting to see to what extent they will be rehabilitated over the next few decades.

Death, disinformation, and brother's elite ties

The Epstein case certainly took a bizarre twist. This article - as it can be read here - already had been done a good 80% since 2015. While thinking of finishing it up, on July 6, 2019, international headlines read that Epstein had been arrested again. On July 23 he made his first suicide attempt while having Nicholas Tartaglione, a bodybuilding, quadruple murdering ex-cop as his cellmate. Epstein survived and refused to talk about any of the details. On August 10, 2019, after a second, successful suicide attempt, Epstein was no more.

Epstein's death lead to a huge amount of controversy. The question is if accusations of murder are deserved. Apparently Epstein tied a bedsheet around his neck and leaned forward, explaining why he broke and injured a number of bones towards the front of his neck. The prison was severely understaffed, giving us an explanation as to why camera's weren't properly maintained and why the crew didn't check up on him for a number of hours.

If one wants to demonstrate that a murder took place, it would be crucial to have video footage of one or more individuals moving towards his cell in the relevant time period. For the time being, it doesn't appear footage like this exists. Thus, I would be very hesitant to call it a murder, let alone a "government murder", especially considering what a horror prisons are for pedophiles, prominent ones in particular. Reading how he was depositing money in the accounts of other inmates to prevent being attacked, it might well be that the constant threats to his personal well-being pushed him over the edge. Talk about a failure of the justice system.

While it is certainly possible that officials within the prison system were careless with his safety, if someone very powerful was genuinely worried that Epstein would be talking, it probably would have been smartest to kill him before his final arrest, because chances of him getting arrested again were pretty significant.

Also, let's look at who has been spinning stories of Epstein's "assassination". As usual, there's conspiracy guru Alex Jones, who hails from a CIA family and has never spoken a truthful word in his life. You'd think Jones could make better use of his time than defending the legacy of a dead pedophile by running down the street with "Epstein Didn't Kill Himself" signs. Unless, he's stirring up the umpteenth bogus controversy, of course.

Then there's the fact that Jeffrey Epstein's brother, Mark Epstein, together with Jeffrey Epstein's defense, hired pathologist Dr. Michael Baden. Mark Epstein and Baden ended up becoming leading skeptics of the suicide theory. It must be said, they ask reasonable questions about the investigation, questions that are unlikely to ever be answered by the FBI and other official investigators. [107]

The fact still remains though that Dr. Michael Baden, in 1978-1979, was chairman of the House Select Committee on Assassinations' (HSCA's) Forensic Pathology Panel, where he upheld the official theory surrounding the JFK assassination. If that's not enough, in 1995 his supportive statements about one or more questionable aspects in O.J. Simpson's testimony, played a crucial role in getting O.J. Simpson off the hook for murder. [108]

As for Mark Epstein, since 2007 this brother of Jeffrey Epstein has served on the board of the Humpty Dumpty Institute, which "forges innovative public-private partnerships [and] foster[s] dialogue between the United Nations and the U.S. Congress." Major financiers of the Humpty Dumpty Institute have included the United Nations Foundation of Ted Turner and Maurice Strong, as well as various U.S. government department. [109] Super-globalist Richard Holbrooke, a very close friend of the likes of Henry Kissinger and David Rockefeller, still was a director of the HDI - one of 8 - in 2007 when Mark Epstein joined. At that point, Constance Milstein still was the founding chair of HDI. [110] In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Milstein shared the board of Refugees International with George Soros, Rockefeller man Frank Wisner II (CIA family) and other elites as Queen Noor of Jordan. [111] She also could be found on the board of Madeleine Albright's National Democratic Institute for International Affairs (NDI) [112], along with Rockefeller buddies as James Wolfensohn.

2006: Asia Society chair Richard Holbrooke, known to both Epstein brothers, with Happy Rockefeller - the wife of Nelson - and David Rockefeller. Kissinger, Kofi Annan and Sen. Jay Rockefeller also present.

So, what does this mean? It means Mark Epstein is not just an innocent bystander in the Jeffrey Epstein saga. He might not be Trilateral Commission or CFR, but clearly Mark Epstein sold his soul to the globalist movement as well. There doesn't appear to be anything independent about him.

Also, let's not forget that disinformation on the (non-conspiracy) RFK assassination has not just been spread by conspiracy disinformers as Michael Ruppert and John Pilger. No, mainstream media outlets as the Washington Post and quite a few others have actively been pushing the (faulty) conspiracy-point-of-view here, working in-tandem with bogus witnesses and even with "liberal CIA"-type activist RFK, Jr. Why? Because RFK, Jr. sold his soul, probably quite similarly to both JFK and RFK.

Fact is, also in the Netherlands - in 2012 - the mainstream media aided in spreading conspiracy disinformation about the murder of "alt-right" politician Pim Fortuyn. So, in other words: just because the mainstream media is screaming "conspiracy" on the Epstein case, doesn't mean that Epstein has actually been murdered. In the modern era, it appears that elites have just stopped with even trying to keep up appearances as to the "mainstream" media being trustworthy. You really can't trust any reporting anymore.

Summary and conclusions

I'm still unsure how to feel about the Jeffrey Epstein case. It's pretty clear that for the longest time the prosecutor's offices in Florida and New York were protecting Epstein's activities. If Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter hadn't pushed for more serious charges against Epstein, quite possibly we would have never heard about the case.

It must be said though, the activities of Epstein regarding the solicitation of underage "masseuses" were far from average, even among the power elite. Epstein really was a pedophile, in the sense that he was primarily sexually interested in girls below the age of 18. As a result, he was running a personal, full-time recruitment scheme with dozens of underage girls being spotted around his Palm Beach mansion at all hours of the night.

This situation is different from a lot of historic cases with accusations of child abuse networks being covered up. Quite a few accusations exist of Special Branch in Great Britain covering up all child abuse cases in which elite names surface. [113] With Haut de la Garenne, successive police chiefs looked the other way for decades. In the Dutroux X-Dossiers, countless leading police chiefs and judges could be found among the alleged abusers, with reports existing that sexual abuse took place in clubs in Brussels in districts were the police could be counted on to cover things up. None of that with Epstein. So he ended up getting caught.

Epstein still enjoyed a degree of protection, but without the local police on board and now with the internet and social media around, there clearly is only so much that can be covered up. After a while, Epstein simply had to go, just to give the masses a sense that there is still a degree of accountability for "the rich". It's also the #MeToo era, so that also went against Epstein.

While it is a good thing that Epstein was caught, it still is a first-rate disgrace that America's justice system failed to protect him. The fact that Epstein had to fear for his life to the point he had to pay off other prisoners, really is a terrible tragedy in what is supposed to be a modern democracy. If Epstein was a Marc Dutroux who kidnapped, raped and murdered young girls, that would be one thing. But he didn't. Not as far as we know.

In fact, many of his "victims", really don't seem to have been true victims at all. They benefited financially from moderately sexual massages they provided for a not-unattractive billionaire and even recruited other girls for him. Former boyfriends and associates of Virginia, such as Philip Guderyon and Crystal Figueroa, testified to that, and indicated many of the girls, including Virginia, were more than happy to be financially compensated for doing whatever they did for Epstein, and also recruit other girls with a reputation for being "slutty". In later years many of these same girls benefited from exaggerating their story, denying their own culpability, and demand millions upon millions in settlements. Underage or not, that is not something that should just be overlooked.

Hence, it would have been nice if Epstein was protected by America's judicial system and if he would have gotten a fair trial, open to the public. It appears that is too much to ask though. One moment the media ignores elite crimes; next thing you know they lead the witch hunt, unjustly elevating many old female co-conspirators to the sole status of "victim", aiding them once again in their financial exploits.
