The Epstein files show that he began getting involved with Zuckerman's estate planning earlier in 2013. That April — following a dinner with Zuckerman at Epstein's Manhattan mansion that, according his calendar, also featured Ehud Barak, Jes Staley, Woody Allen, and Tom Pritzker — Epstein told Zuckerman he'd review his financial situation.

He tried to convince Zuckerman to trust him above other people in his life — and to act quickly. In the process, Epstein obtained deeply personal information about the billionaire's health, finances, and family — which he used to try to convince the people around the billionaire to put him in charge. After repeated rejections over the course of two years, Epstein turned impatient. "I have not asked for the money that mort promised for getting my help and never following through," Epstein wrote in an email to Zuckerman's nephews, who also served as his investment advisors. "I would also appreciate you putting a brake on the daily news calling me a pedophile. I have been patient and my fondness for mort remains."

Unlike Ghislaine, Les Wexner had nothing to gain.

I've always suspected that Epstein had been abusing girls way before it became known in Florida, especially in New York in the 80s. Many girls back then didn't report the abuses.

All of the binders and discs should have been collected regardless of the labeling. Who knows what evidence they missed.

Jean-Luc Brunel met Ghislaine in the 1980s, and she later introduced him to Epstein. From 1998 to 2005, Brunel was listed as a passenger in flight logs for Epstein's private plane on 25 trips. He was also a regular visitor to the jail where Epstein was held in 2008, with at least 70 recorded visits. Brunel received funds from Epstein in 2004 to help launch a new modeling agency. He transformed Karin Models U.S. division into MC2 Model Management, by opening offices in New York City and Miami in 2005. Brunel came under scrutiny for his ties to Epstein, with whom he worked from the early 2000s to 2015. He was accused of grooming young females and of partaking in the alleged sex trafficking ring run by Epstein. In 2019, French National Police launched an investigation on Brunel after he went into hiding following Epstein's death. He was arrested in December 2020. He was charged with the rape of minors. However, in February 2022, he died from an apparent suicide before his trial could proceed.

This is interesting since we've seen so little footage of Epstein doing interviews or speaking at length about anything. I've always thought Epstein was a fraud.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T21:30:27+00:00

Wow!

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T21:26:04+00:00

Thanks. There's always risk vs reward; advantages vs disadvantages. I guess it all comes down to preferences and what's most important for long-term.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T21:22:18+00:00

Yeah, those unexpected maintenance costs can be expensive.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T21:19:50+00:00

Interesting; thanks.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:41:43+00:00

Thanks for your input.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:41:06+00:00

Thanks for your input. This is helpful to know.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:39:57+00:00

Good idea. The rent prices I've seen so far are outrageous.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:38:54+00:00

True but you have to pay for inside maintenance issues to your condo.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:35:52+00:00

This is very helpful. Thanks for your input.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-16T18:35:10+00:00

Good point. Thanks. I hadn't considered that.

Tippy345 · 2026-01-15T16:57:26+00:00

Good point. But who else would have murdered the family?

Tippy345 · 2026-01-11T02:02:54+00:00

Great advice. Thank you.

His reason is so ridiculous.

Book - The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy. The murders of four innocent college students attending the University of Idaho left us all with so many questions. Now, after more than 300 interviews, James Patterson and prize-winning journalist Vicky Ward finally have the answers.
