Famous names unveiled in Epstein court docs; one asked about girls getting paid

[KARAH RUCKER]

LET’S TALK ABOUT WHAT WE’VE LEARNED IN THE FIRST BATCH OF UNSEALED DOCUMENTS FROM EPSTEIN VICTIM VIRGINIA GUIFFRE’S LAWSUIT. BEFORE WE DO, KNOW THAT ABOUT 250 MORE DOCUMENTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE UNSEALED IN DAYS TO COME AND NONE OF THE PEOPLE LISTED ARE ACCUSED OF WRONGDOING RATHER OF ASSOCIATION. 

LET’S GET TO THE NAMES.

ONE OF THE MORE NOTABLE NEW NAMES IS MAGICIAN DAVID COPPERFIELD. FROM THE TESTIMONY OF EPSTEIN VICTIM JOHANNA SJOBERG, DAVID COPPERFIELD HAD ASKED HER “IF SHE WAS AWARE GIRLS WERE GETTING PAID TO FIND OTHER GIRLS.”

THEY WERE SAID TO BE AT DINNER WHERE COPPERFIELD ALSO “DID SOME MAGIC TRICKS”.

THE VICTIM SAYS SHE “KNEW EPSTEIN HAD DEALINGS WITH BILL CLINTON,” AND THAT “CLINTON LIKES THEM YOUNG, REFERRING TO GIRLS.” SHE SAID SHE NEVER ACTUALLY SAW THE FORMER PRESIDENT OR HIS VICE PRESIDENT ALSO NAMED IN THE DOCUMENTS, AL GORE.

SJOBERG SAYS SHE DID MEET MICHAEL JACKSON AT EPSTEIN’S PALM BEACH HOUSE.

AND MET FRENCH MODELING AGENT “JEAN LUC BRUNEL,” WHO HUNG HIMSELF AWAITING TRIAL FOR ACCUSASTIONS OF RAPING YOUNG GIRLS.

SJOBERG WAS ASKED IF SHE EVER MET DONALD TRUMP, KEVIN SPACEY, GEORGE LUCAS, FORMER VICTORIA SECRET CEO LEX WEXNER, AND SAID NO.

MANY OF THE NAMES NOW UNREDACTED WERE ALREADY PREVIOUSLY MADE PUBLIC IN SOME CAPACITY INCLUDING PRINCE ANDREW, FORMER NEW MEXICO GOVERNOR BILL RICHARDSON, WELL KNOWN LAWYER ALAN DERSHOWITZ, EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN OF HYATT HOTELS THOMAS PRITZKER.

ALL MENTIONED HAVE DENIED WRONGDOING IN THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH EPSTEIN.
