The list includes “numerous prominent American politicians, influential businessmen, foreign presidents, a prominent prime minister, and other world leaders,” the document states, without naming specific people. Epstein “demanded” the girl “describe the experiences she had with these men so he could blackmail them,” the document says. Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence, met the girl in 1999, when she was just 15 years old. It is not reported her nationality or whether she had relatives.
Over the next three years, Epstein turned the girl into a “sex slave” and frequently sexually abused her in locations around the world, according to court documents. The financier’s alleged goal in “lending” Jane Doe 3 to his powerful friends was to “ingratiate himself” for financial gain, as well as “obtain information in order to blackmail them.” In the 10-page document, “Jane Doe 3” claims that her rights under the federal Crime Victims’ Rights Act were violated when the U.S. government entered into a secret non-prosecution agreement with Epstein. As a result, she reached a plea deal with justice, served 13 months in prison in the late 2000s, and continued her atrocities, according to the NYP publication. Epstein was indicted for child sex trafficking in 2019 by New York prosecutors, but committed suicide in prison while awaiting trial.
The scandal with the publication of the so-called “Epstein list” shook the public and the Western media. On Wednesday, 40 documents were made public, on Thursday 60. Most of the court documents will be made public in the coming days. Most of the people on the list did not break the law, but were acquaintances of Epstein. The main intrigue is whether the names of the accomplices in his crimes will be released. As observers predict, there is practically no chance of this happening and the main “scapegoats” will be the British Prince Andrew, the late Epstein and his accomplice Maxwell. London has already made it clear that it has no intention of prosecuting the prince, who has been excommunicated from Buckingham Palace.
