of his property, real and personal, wherever situated to The Trust 14 The Trust also contains Epstein’s financial assets and is also responsible to pay damages for the acts committed by Epstein and the Epstein Enterprise described below The Trust’s administrators, Darren K Indyke and Richard D Kahn, filed a Certificate of Trust in the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands for The Trust on August 26, 2019 15 Epstein maintained a deliberately complex web of Virgin Islands corporations, limited liability companies, foundations, and other entities, not all of which are yet known to the GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 4 of 48 Government of the Virgin Islands, through which he carried out and concealed his criminal conduct 16 Epstein regularly created new entities in the territory and transferred properties and funds between them in order to preserve and shield Epstein’s assets and to facilitate and conceal the unlawful acts described in this Complaint 17 These entities held properties, including Little St James and Great St James at which Epstein trafficked and sexually abused women and underage girls Epstein owned and arranged for private planes, helicopters, boat and automobiles to transport victims to, from, and within the Virgin Islands, and provided money to pay these young women and underage girls 18 Epstein sat at the hub of this web, servmg as president, member, manager or director of each of the entities and, upon information and belief, directing their activities 19 Defendant, Nautilus, Inc , is a corporation established and organized under the laws of the Virgin Islands It was incorporated on November 22, 2011 20 According to records of the Virgin Islands Recorder of Deeds, Nautilus Inc owns Little St James, a/k/a Parcel Number 109803010100, a parcel of 3 1 million square feet valued at $3 2 million, with buildings and improvements valued at $4 million 21 Epstein was president and director of Nautilus, Inc , which corporate filings describe as “holding property for personal use Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, Executors of the Estate, are the secretary and treasurer of Nautilus, Inc , respectively The Estate values Epstein s holdings of Nautilus, Inc , which holds title to Little St James at $63 9 million 22 A deed recorded with the Virgin Islands Recorder of Deeds on December 30, 201 1 reflects that the property was transferred from a Delaware entity, L S J , LLC, to Nautilus, Inc for TEN DOLLARS ($10 00) and other good and valuable consrderation The quitclaim deed lists GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 5 of 48 Jeffrey Epstein as the sole member of L S J , LLC, which it acquired Little Saint James via a warranty deed dated April 27 1998 23 As described below, Epstein engaged in a pattern and practice of trafficking and sexually abusing young women and female children on this private, secluded island of Little St James where Epstein and his associates could avoid detection of their illegal activity from Virgin Islands and federal law enforcement and prevent these young women and underage girls from leaving freely and escaping the abuse 24 Thus, Nautilus, Inc participated in carrying out, facilitating and concealing Epstein’s crimes, hence Little St James became an instrumentality of those crimes 25 Defendant, Great St Jim, LLC, is a limited liability company established and organized under the laws of the Virgin Islands Great St Jim, LLC was organized on October 26, 2015 Great St Jim, LLC, according to records of the Virgin Islands Recorder of Deeds owns at least three properties that make up Great St James acquired on January 28 2016 Parcel Number 109801010100, consisting of 3 5 million square feet and valued at $17 5 million Parcel Number

with the Virgin Islands Recorder of Deeds, Epstein, through Great St Jim LLC acquired the last two parcels for $5 million 26 Epstein is listed as manager and a member of Great St Jim LLC and the nature of its business is described as “holding assets ” 27 Upon information and belief, Epstein purchased these Great St James properties the island with closest proximity to Little St James to further shield his conduct on Little St James from View, prevent his detection by law enforcement or the public, and allow him to GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI’s Complaint Page 8 of 48 FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS A The Conduct of the “Epstein Enterprise” in the Virgin Islands 37 Epstein and his associates, including Defendants, identified and recruited female victims, including children, and transported them to the Virgin Islands where they were abused and injured Epstein, through and in association with Defendants, trafficked, raped, sexually assaulted and held captive underage girls and young women at his properties in the Virgin Islands 38 Epstein created a network of companies and individuals who participated in and conspired with him in a pattern of criminal activity related to the sex trafficking, forced labor, sexual assault, child abuse, and sexual servitude of these young women and children Epstein and his assocrates trafficked underage girls to the Virgin Islands, held them captive, and sexually abused them, causing them grave physical, mental, and emotional injury 39 To accomplish his illegal ends, Epstein formed an association in fact with multiple Defendants and others (both companies and individuals) who were willing to participate in, facilitate, and conceal Epstein’s criminal activity in exchange for Epstein’s bestowal of financial and other benefits, including sexual services and forced labor from Victims 40 This illicit association of Epstein, Defendants, and his associates constitutes what is referred to herein as the Epstein Enterprise Epstein s associates in the Epstein Enterprise, including, but not limited to, those named as Defendants knowingly facilitated, participated in, and concealed Epstein s illegal conduct 41 Epstein used his wealth and power to create the Epstein Enterprise which engaged in a pattern of criminal activity in the Virgin Islands by repeatedly procuring and subjecting underage girls and young women to unlawful sexual conduct, sex trafficking, and forced labor GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 9 of 48 42 The Epstein Enterprise engaged in a pattern of criminal activity in the Virgin Islands (and elsewhere) with the criminal purpose and goal ofplacing a steady supply ofvulnerable female children and young women into sexual servitude in service of Epstein’s desires, and those of his associates The Epstein Enterprise maintained and made available young women and underage girls for the purpose of engaging them in forced labor and sexual activities and used coercion and deception to procure, abuse, and harbor its victims 43 Flight logs and other sources establish that between 2001 and 2019 the Epstein Enterprise transported underage girls and young women to the Virgin Islands, who were then taken via helicopter or private vessel to Little St James where they were then deceptively subjected to sexual servitude, forced to engage in sexual acts and coerced into commercial sexual activity and forced labor 44 In furtherance of its criminal activities, the Epstein Enterprise used its aircrafis to transport the young women and underage girls to the Virgin Islands for purposes of sexual abuse and exploitation 45 The Epstein Enterprise facilitated and participated in the sexual molestation and exploitation of numerous girls between the age of 12 and 17 years old 46 On the pretext of providing modeling opportunities, careers and contracts, associates of the Epstein Enterprise, funded by the Epstein Enterprise, lured and recruited young women and underage girls to travel to locations including the Virgin Islands where upon information and belief, based on the pattern and practice of the Epstein Enterprise, they were sexually abused and exploited GVI v Estate of Jeffrey B Epstein GVI’s Complaint Page 10 of 48 47 Associates in the Epstein Enterprise recruited both victims and abusers into the Epstein Enterprise participated in sexual acts of rape and abuse of minors and witnessed Epstein and others engage in sexual acts with children 48 As recent as 2018, air traffic controllers and other airport personnel reported seeing Epstein leave his plane with young girls some of whom appeared to be between the age of 11 and 18 years 49 Upon information and belief, based on Epstein’s pattern of trafficking and sexually abusing young girls, the Epstein Enterprise trafficked and abused these girls, and others, in the Virgin Islands through 2018 50 When sued in civil court for committing sex trafficking and sex crimes, Epstein never denied engaging in sexual acts with underage females and procuring underage females for prostitution but instead consistently invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege against self incrimination 51 Upon information and belief, the Epstein Enterprise kept a computerized list of underage girls who were in or proximate to the Virgin Islands, and able to be transported to Epstein’s residence at Little St James in the Virgin Islands 52 The Epstein Enterprise engaged in a pattern of criminal conduct by trafficking children and young women and placing them in sexual serv1tude and forced labor in the Virgin Islands The Epstein Enterprise repeatedly violated 14 V I C §§ 133 to 138 which prohibit trafficking and sexual abuse The Epstein Enterprise also repeatedly violated laws against child abuse and neglect, including 14 V I C § 505, which defines the crime of child abuse as knowingly or recklessly causing “a child to suffer physical, mental, or emotional injury, ’ or causing a child to be placed in a situation where such injury is foreseeable, and 14 V I C § 506, which applies, as GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 11 of 48 here, where the child suffers serious physical, mental, or emotional injury as a result of that abuse The harm to Epstein s v1ctims was both fully foreseeable and deeply damaging 53 The Epstein Enterprise knowingly recruited transported transferred harbored, received, procured obtained Isolated, maintained, and enticed young women and girls to engage in forced labor (such as providing massages) and, ultimately sexual servitude at his little St James residence 54 A 15 year old victim was forced into sexual acts with Epstein and others and then attempted to escape by swimming off the Little St James island Epstein and others organized a search party that located her and kept her captive by, among other things confiscating her passport 55 Another Victim who was first engaged in prov1de massages to Epstein, was then forced to perform sexual acts at Little St James in the Virgin Islands When she attempted to escape from the “private island, Epstein and a search party found her returned her to his house, and suggested physical restraint or harm if she failed to cooperate 56 The Epstein Enterprise deceptively lured underage girls and women into its sex trafficking ring with money and promises of employment career opportunities and school assistance The Epstein Enterprise preyed on their financtal and other vulnerabilities, and promised victims money shelter gifts, employment, tuition and other items of value For example participants in the Epstein Enterprise targeted young and underage females under the pretext that they would be paid substantially merely to provide massages to him and others However, once drawn in, victims were then pressured and coerced to engage in sexual acts 57 The Epstein Enterprise forced underage victims to recruit others to perform services and engage in sexual acts a trafficking pyramid scheme GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 12 of48 58 The Epstein Enterprise paid girls for each meeting,” with additional money if they brought additional girls Epstein reportedly required three meetings per day 59 The Epstein Enterprise used the term “work” as a code for sexual abuse, and upon information and belief, reportedly kept computer records ofthe contact information for the victims 60 Consistent with his creation and use of a complex web of entities to carry out and conceal the criminal trafficking enterprise in the Virgin Islands, the Epstein Enterprise sometimes paid young women and underage girls he exploited and trafficked through his charitable foundations 61 Once the girls and women were recruited participants in the Epstein Enterprise enforced their sexual servitude of victims by coercion including but not limited to, confiscating passports, controlling and extinguishing external communications, and threatening violence They also made fraudulent statements to family members of Victims, claiming victims were being well cared for and supported financially in college and other educational opportunities 62 The Epstein Enterprise transported, held, sexually abused, trafficked, and concealed women and children at his property in the Virgin Islands dozens of times over nearly two decades B The “Epstein Enterprise” Abused Privileges of Residency to Carry out its Criminal Scheme 63 The Epstein Enterprise in 1998 acquired Little St James in the Virgin Islands as the perfect hideaway and haven for trafficking young women and underage girls for sexual servitude, child abuse and sexual assault Little St James is a secluded, private island, nearly two miles from St Thomas with no other residents It can be visited only by private boat or helicopter; no public or commercial transportation is available to carry persons on or off the island, and no GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI’s Complaint Page 13 of 48 bridge connects the island to St Thomas Epstein had easy access to Little St James from the private airfield on St Thomas, only 10 minutes away by his private helicopter, but the women and children he trafficked, abused, and held there were not able to leave without his permission and assistance, as it was too far and dangerous to swim to St Thomas 64 In 2016, upon information and belief, using a straw purchaser to hide Epstein’s identity, the Epstein Enterprise acquired Great St James the nearest island to Little St James By then, Epstein was a convicted sex offender Upon information and belief, the Epstein Enterprise purchased the island for more than $20 million because its participants wanted to ensure that the island did not become a base from which others could View their activities or visitors By acquiring ownership and control of Great St James to the exclusron of others, the Epstein Enterprise created additional barriers to prevent those held involuntarily on Little St James from escaping or obtaining help from others 65 Great St James and Little St James are environmentally sensitive locations, with native coral and wildlife protected by federal and territorial law and enforcement authorities The Department of Planning and Natural Resources (“DPNR”) regulates and monitors construction in the Coastal Zone to protect, maintain and manage the precious natural resources of the Virgin Islands Under its authority, DPNR repeatedly issued citations and assessed thousands of dollars of fines for violations of the Virgin Islands construction code and environmental protection laws on both Little St James and Great St James significant penalties to the agency and to the average resident of the Virgin Islands But because of Epstein’s enormous wealth, these fines had little effect in curbing or stopping the Epstein Enterprise’s unlawful conduct or conforming its activities to the law GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 14 of 48 66 As a result of illegal construction activity of the Epstein Enterprise, the Virgin Islands has incurred, and will incur, significant expenses to remove the illegal construction or remediate its effects on natural resources in and around Little St James and Great St James The extent of the potential environmental damage is unknown at this time as the illegal construction has not been removed or remediated 67 The Epstein Enterprise continues to attempt to prevent or limit DPNR authorities from conducting random inspections on the Little St James and Great St James necessary to comply with Virgin Islands law 68 The Epstein Enterprise’s Violation of the construction and environmental laws was part of a pattern of behavior in flouting the laws of the Virgin Islands and holding itself above the law Upon information and belief, as described above, the Epstein Enterprise undertook construction at Great St James after 2016 to continue the scheme to carry out and conceal his trafficking and sexual abuse of young women and children in the Virgin Islands These actions are also indicative of the Epstein Enterprise’s disregard for Virgin Islands law The Epstein Enterprise used the Virgin Islands land, resources, people, and laws for its illicit purposes Rather than participating lawfully in this community, the Epstein Enterprise took advantage of the secluded nature of the islands in furtherance of its crimes 69 As a result of its deplorable and unlawful conduct the Epstein Enterprise has subjected the Virgin Islands to public portrayals as a hiding place for human trafficking and sex crimes GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI’s Complaint Page 15 of 48 C The “Epstein Enterprise” Fraudulently Concealed its Conduct 70 The Epstein Enterprise fraudulently concealed its actions to prevent detection by the Government of the Virgin Islands 71 The secluded properties at Little St James and Great St James were repeatedly used by the Epstein Enterprise as the locations for unlawfully soliciting transporting, transferring, harboring, receiving, providing, isolating, patronizing, maintaining, deceiving, coercing, and sexually abusing young women and children and concealing these crimes 72 The Epstein Enterprise was able to hide the trafficking ring from law enforcement, despite the fact that Epstein was a registered sex offender Given the isolation of the Little St James and Great St James and the nature of the crimes and of the victims targeted by the Epstein Enterprise, the activities of the Epstein Enterprise were not readily detectable Moreover, Epstein’s great wealth and power likely made witnesses reluctant to report their observations to the local law enforcement 73 Upon information and belief, the Epstein Enterprise prevented its employees from cooperating with law enforcement Employees and others were required to Sign confidentiality agreements that prohibited them from speaking to or sharing information with law enforcement If they were contacted by law enforcement they were to notify the Epstein Enterprise and be represented by Epstein s counsel 74 The employees were directed not to communicate or interact with guests Visiting Little St James and were also directed not to disclose to anyone events that occurred on the island GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 16 of 48 75 Monitoring a sex offender with his own private islands and the resources to fly victims in and out on private planes and helicopters presented unique challenges and allowed the Epstein Enterprise to limrt scrutiny by the Government of the Virgin Islands 76 Sexual Offender Registration and Community Protection Act (“SORCPA ) 14 V I C § 1721 et seq requires sex offenders registered in the Virgin Islands to make periodic in person appearances to verify and update their registration information 77 Epstein renewed his registration each year in the Virgin Islands In addition, beyond this statutory requirement, the Virgin Islands periodically visited—or attempted to visit Little St James to conduct additional address verifications 78 At his last verification in July 2018, Epstein refused to permit Virgin Islands Department of Justice Investigators, assisted by United States Marshals, to enter Little St James beyond its dock, claiming that the dock was his ‘ front door Instead, Epstein arranged to be met at his office on St Thomas 79 Epstein also misled the Government regarding his travel plans On March 19, 2019, the Virgin Islands was notified that Epstein would be traveling to France for 10 days on the private plane owned by Plan D, LLC His notification form did not disclose travel to any other countries It was later discovered by law enforcement authorities that Epstein also travelled to Vienna and Monaco during that trip 80 Similarly, the Epstein Enterprise sought to prevent DPNR from conducting routine site visrts to inspect unpermitted and potentially damaging construction activity on Great St James The Epstein Enterprise repeatedly objected to DPNR s inspections referring to them as ‘ invasions of Epstein’s constitutional right to privacy in his home, which he described defined as the entire island These DPNR inspections are required for all construction and Virgin Islands residents are — GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 17 of 48 1 required to cooperate with the inspections to assure compliance with the law throughout the construction phases 81 These efforts represent Epstein Enterprise’s intent to conceal its unlawful activity on Little St James and Great St James 82 The Epstein Enterprise also created numerous corporations and limited liability companies in the Virgin Islands to help conceal its unlawful activity Most of these companies were created in 201 1 and 2012, soon after Epstein registered as a sex offender in the Virgin Islands 83 Epstein 5 pilot, Larry Visoski is identified as member or co member in companies that serviced and maintained the planes that the Epstein Enterprise used to traffick young women and children Freedom Air Petroleum, LLC (registered November 28, 2011 to hold assets); and JEGE LLC (registered October 19 2012 to hold assets) 84 Other Epstein entities include LSJ Employees LLC (registered October 27 2011 to provide services); Southern Financial, LLC (registered February 25, 2013 to provide services) and LS] Emergency, LLC (registered December 2, 2015 to provide services) 85 Some of these companies held considerable assets Financial Informatics, Inc (incorporated November 18 2011, also known as Southern Trust Company, Inc) had assets of approximately $391 million in 2015 and Financial Trust Company Inc (incorporated November 6 1998) had assets of $212 million when it publicly filed its last balance sheet in 2012 86 Though often absent in the original incorporation or registration documents or annual filings, Epstein ultimately appeared as president, director, manager, or sole member of each of these companies Upon information and belief, the purpose of this complex array of corporate entities some of which may still be discovered was to allow Epstein to shelter his assets in order to fund carry out, and conceal his identity and pattern of criminal conduct GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 18 of 48 87 The Estate continues to engage in a course of conduct aimed at concealing the criminal activities of the Epstein Enterprise On November 24, 2019, Epstein’s Estate filed an Expedited Motion for Establishment of a Voluntary Claims Resolution Program in the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands (‘ Motion”) According to the Motion, the proposed program was to be designed to “establish an independent and voluntary claims resolution program for purposes of resolvrng sexual abuse claims against Jeffrey E Epstein ” (Motion, at 1) 88 The program proposed by the Estate, whose executors are trustees of The 1953 Trust and officers in at least two Epstein entities, imposes confidentiality requirements and requires any claimant accepting an award under the program to sacrifice any other claims against “any person or entity arising from or related to Mr Epstein’s conduct ” (Motion, at 5) It acts to conceal the criminal activities of the Epstein Enterprise and shield its participants from liability and accountability for the injury they caused to the victims 89 Two days before his death, Epstein amended The Trust and his Last Will and Testament Upon information and belief, he did so, as part of a pattern and ongoing effort to conceal and shield his assets from potential recovery by claimants D The “Epstein Enterprise” Violated Numerous Virgin Islands Laws 90 The pattern of criminal activity engaged in by Epstein and other participants in the Epstein Enterprise violated 14 V I C §§ 605 and 607 of the Criminally Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“CICO”) 91 The Epstein Enterprise also violated Title 14, Chapter 3A The Virgin Islands Uniform Prevention of and Remedies for Human Trafficking Act relating to Trafficking of Persons Title 14 Chapter 24, relating to Child Protection and Child Abuse and Neglect; Title 14, — t GVI v Estate of Jeffrey B Epstein GVI s Complaint Page 19 of 48 Chapter 81, relating to Prostitution and Related Offenses; Title 18, Chapter 85, relating to Rape and Sexual Assault and other related offenses as well as other Virgin Islands laws 92 The Epstein Enterprise violated Virgin Islands laws by engaging in the human trafficking of underage girls and young women and commercial sex with young women and underage girls by force, fraud, enticement, or coercion, which serve as predicates to the Epstein Enterprise’s violations of CICO 93 Certain participants who recruited young women and underage girls to be trafficked and forced into sexual servitude themselves were sexually trafficked and abused by the Epstein Enterprise and may be afforded the protections of 14 V I C § 145 94 Specifically, Plan D, LLC knowingly and intentionally facilitated the trafficking scheme by flying underage girls and young women into the Virgin Islands to be delivered into sexual servitude Plan D LLC repeatedly made flights from the mainland to St Thomas with Epstein and underage girls and young women for the purpose of engaging in sexual activity on Little St James On some occasions, they would transport Epstein and female children by helicopter to Little St James On other occasions Epstein and the young women and girls would be transported by boat 95 Great St Jim, LLC and Nautilus, Inc knowingly participated in the Epstein Enterprise and facilitated the trafficking and sexual servitude of young women and underage girls by providing the secluded properties at, from, or to which Epstein and his associates were able to transport, transfer, receive, maintain, isolate, harbor, provide, entice, deceive, coerce, and sexually abuse underage girls and young women 96 The Epstein Enterprise engaged in a continuing course of unlawful conduct GVI v Estate of Jeffrey E Epstein GVI’s Complaint Page 20 of 48 97 After Epstein s suicide, the Epstein Enterprise continued to exist as each of the participants continued to conspire to prevent detection of the breadth and scope of the Epstein Enterprise’s criminal wrongdoing and to prevent accountability These conspiratorial acts are ongoing 98 The conduct ofthe Epstein Enterprise offends the core purpose ofthe Virgin Islands Uniform Prevention of and Remedies for Human Trafficking Act, 14 V I C §13l et seq, and violates CICO, enacted to “curtail criminal activity and lessen its economic and political power in the Territory of the Virgin Islands by establishing new penal prohibitions and providing to law enforcement and the victims of criminal activity new civil sanctions and remedies 14 V I C § 601 99 The Epstein Enterprise is an illicit
