NY Moneyman Arrested in Teen Sex Scandal
July 25, 2006 4:50 PM
New York's financier to the billionaires, Jeffrey Epstein, 53, was arrested by Palm Beach County Police this week on the charge of soliciting a prostitute, a third degree felony. The probable cause affidavit for the arrest warrant filed by Palm Beach police, however, alleges some more serious acts. Epstein repeatedly paid young, and some underage girls, to come to his house, massage him and on a few occasions have sex with him, according to the affidavit.
Epstein, an acquaintance of former President Bill Clinton, is well-known for the millions he made investing with Bear Stearns and later on his own. His private residence is an eight-story mansion in Manhattan where he reportedly spent $10 million in renovations. He lent his private 727 jet for Clinton's 2002 trip to Africa and often donates large sums of money to private, scientific research.
According to a Palm Beach County Police probable cause affidavit, for more than two years, an acquaintance of Epstein and his assistant offered him girls as young as 14 to give Epstein massages in his Palm Beach home for between $200 and $350.
According to police, witnesses say that Epstein was naked for the massages and encouraged the girls to remove clothing as they rubbed his chest and back. The affidavit also says that on at least three occasions Epstein had sexual and digital intercourse with his "victims."
On one occasion, he paid an underage girl to engage in sex acts with his friend while he watched, according to the affidavit.
Throughout the encounters, states the affidavit, Epstein told the girls not to tell anyone their real age and to lie if asked.
Police say that a former houseman told them that Epstein received two massages every day while he was at his house in Palm Beach.
At one point, a 23-year-old woman was brought over to provide the massage but, according to a witness cited in the affidavit, Epstein turned her away because he thought she was too old.
Epstein's spokesman said he had no comment.

Yawn... who cares. "Older men pay younger girls for sex..." What a shocking news flash.
I bet 10 bucks if this guy is acquitted, you won't run a followup.

These Wall Street Tycoons ALL think they are Masters of the Universe, and the whole world is their playground. They become so self-absorbed and begin to believe that they are better than everyone else, and that they are "Special" which means they can do ANYTHING they want. Well he just found out he can't.

Same old story, the immoral "moral" society is ignoring why a "victim" choses to sell her/himself for a mere $200.00 and focus on what the "victims" perceived as an old sugar dad. As long as we as a soceity accept as a fact that a virgin can have a baby, we will never be able to make sense of our undoing.

I hope he's treated like any other pedophile ~ unfortunately, in Palm Beach money talks. Girls as young as 14...what a disgusting pervert!

These kind of people need the law and the govenment to teach them how to live in this world.

All the guy wanted was some messages. I don't know what the big deal is; the girls got paid and everything.
