CIVIL DIVISION
JEAN-LUC BRUNEL. individually.
and MC2 MODEL &
Civil Action No.: 14-21348 CA 01
Plaintiffs.
vs.
Defendants.
DAMAGES
COME NOW the Plaintiffs, Jean-Luc Brunel and MC2 Model & Talent Miami. LLC, by
and through undersigned counsel, and sues Defendants Jeffrey Epstein. Tyler McDonald. and
Tyler McDonald d/b/a/ Yi.Org for legal relief. equitable relief and defamation, and states as
follows:
I.
Venue is proper in Dade County, Florida as Defendants Tyler McDonald and Tyler
McDonald d/b/a Yi.Org do business in Dade County. Plaintiff Jean-Luc Brunel resides in Dade
County. Florida. and Plaintiff MC2 Model & Talent Miami. LLC, has an office in Dade County.
The causes of action and damages against Defendant Jeffrey Epstein accrued in Dade County,
Florida, due to specific acts by Epstein there, and accordingly, venue is appropriate there.
Florida Statute 47.011.
2.
Florida Statute 48.193(1)(a)(I) ("long-arm") authorizes service on both out-of-state
Defendants (Tyler McDonald. and Tyler McDonald d/b/a/ Yi.Org).
EFTA00599859
3.
Jurisdiction is proper in the Circuit Court as this action seeks relief in excess of fifteen-
thousand dollars ($15,000).
4.
Plaintiff Jean-Luc Brunel is the owner of Plaintiff modeling agency known as "MC2
Model & Talent Miami" ("MC2"). MC2 began operations in October 2005 and has offices in
New York, Miami, and Tel Aviv.
5.
Defendant Jeffrey Epstein ("Epstein") is a hedge-fund manager with a residence in Palm
Beach County, Florida. Defendant has been the subject of significant media coverage due to
charges brought against him involving sexual contact with minors. (Composite Exhibit A
attached).
6.
Plaintiff Brunel and Epstein have known one another since the inception of Plaintiff
MC2.
7.
Plaintiff Brunel operated his modeling agency, Plaintiff MC2, without incident until
Epstein was first charged in Palm Beach County with unlawful sexual contact with a minor in
2006. He was convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor and sentenced to eighteen
months in prison, of which he served thirteen months. He remains a registered sex offender in
Florida as of this day.
8.
First, after the initial criminal charges against Epstein were filed in Palm Beach County.
Plaintiffs were widely implicated in the media as being "linked" to Epstein. These false stories
caused both Plaintiffs a tremendous loss of business.
9.
Plaintiffs lost multiple contacts and business in the modeling business as a direct result of
Epstein's illegal actions. For example, several photographers will not work with MC2 due to the
2
EFTA00599860
adverse publicity surrounding Epstein and his illegal activities, and the publicity falsely linking
Plaintiffs with those activities: namely, sex trafficking. (Composite Exhibit A).
10.
One example of such a photographer was Michael Avedon, who worked with MC2 on
photo shoots. Avedon stopped answering Plaintiffs' emails and phone calls after having known
Plaintiff for some time. Upon meeting Avedon out one night. Avedon stated to Plaintiff Brunel
he had "found out some information" from some friends of his and that he could not associate his
name with MC2.
II.
This statement by Avedon was no doubt a reference to the alleged and false links
between Plaintiffs and Epstein's illegal activities with under-aged girls. This incident clearly
illustrates an example of lost business on Plaintiffs' behalf.
12.
The second example of a business relationship that was terminated due to Epstein's
intentional and illegal activities was a very recent one, involving an overseas agency, Modilinos
Model Agency. The owner stated that the model to be placed with MC2 "found some article in
internet. which changed her position and she preferred to be placed with another agency." This
was relayed to Plaintiff Brunel by e-mail dated October 15.2014. This amply demonstrates that
Epstein's intentional & illegal activities continue to cost Plaintiffs' business income. (Exhibit B
attached).
13.
A third example of a lost business relationship can be found in an e-mail dated October
17, 2014 (Exhibit C attached). The director of the I Mother Agency, Vladmir Yudashkin, states
that a specific model will not sign with Plaintiff MC2 due to her fear that Plaintiffs- will force
her into illegal activities. The model bases her fears upon the stories on the intemet falsely
implicating Plaintiffs as being involved with illegal activities with young models. This is
3
EFTA00599861
another example of a false link between Epstein and Plaintiffs, costing Plaintiffs' business
income.
14.
A fourth example of a lost business relationship can be found in a second e-mail dated
October 17, 2014 (Exhibit D attached). Manuela Martinez of Mega Partners, a Brazilian
modeling agency, states to Plaintiff Brunel that her agency has been unable to work with Plaintiff
MC2 for the past five to six years because of the sex trafficking allegations against Plaintiffs .
This reference is clearly to the false allegations online regarding sex trafficking that were based
in the false link between Epstein and Plaintiffs.
15.
A fifth example of a lost business relationship can be found in an e-mail dated
on
behalf was an e-mail dated August 27, 2010 from Michelle Stockman of Agence
France Presse. (Exhibit E attached). Agence France Presse is a newswire service with a world-
wide reach. Stockman wanted to meet with Plaintiff Brunel to arrange a model shoot with MC2.
However, due to the adverse publicity surrounding Plaintiffs as a result of Epstein's illegal
activities. Plaintiff Brunel was forced to forego (and lose) this business opportunity because he
needed to keep a low-profile at this time.
16.
A sixth example of lost business due to Epstein's intentional and illegal activities can be
found in an e-mail dated December 12. 2014. (Exhibit F attached). Michael Sanka, a talent
scout who had worked with Plaintiffs for a number of years, informed Plaintiff Brunel that he
cannot sign any new models for Plaintiff Brunel's MC2 agency due to the false sex trafficking
allegations online. Sanka goes on to state that Plaintiff Brunel's MC2 agency will not attract any
new models if Plaintiff Brunel does not clear up the false allegations.
17.
A seventh example of lost business due to Epstein's intentional and illegal activities can
be found in an e-mail from Fox Fashion Agency (Exhibit G attached). This e-mail clearly states
4
EFTA00599862
that Fox has placed models with Plaintiff MC2 in the past with absolutely no problems.
However, because of the false internet trafficking links between Plaintiffs and Epstein, Fox states
that it cannot place anymore models with Plaintiff MC2 until the allegations are cleared up.
18.
Before the false links between Plaintiff and Epstein surfaced. Plaintiff Brunel was
earning a great deal of revenue from MC2 Miami.
19.
The false links between Plaintiffs and Epstein began to surface online in about 2005-
2006. Then, in 2006. Plaintiffs received a letter of credit from Epstein at 5% interest. Plaintiffs
then made an investment totaling one-million dollars with Elite Paris. to start a company.
20.
Next, Plaintiff Brunel started the company, "E Management". to work with Elite Models
in Paris, Plaintiff had to close it almost immediately, because Elite didn't send any models to
Plaintiff MC2 for fear of being linked to Epstein.
2I .
Because the false links between Plaintiffs and Epstein began to gain strength online. Elite
Paris severed the agreement due entirely to these false links. Plaintiff Brunel lost his investment
of one-million dollars because of this loss of business.
22.
Plaintiffs lost potentially ten-million dollars in profits due to this initial one-million dollar
loss.
23.
Additionally, a former financial controller of MC2.
stated in a 2012
deposition that Plaintiff Brunel had never done anything inappropriate or illegal with any under-
age model. (Exhibits HI & H2 -Transcript of Deposition of
24.
was fired from her job at Plaintiff MC2 for embezzling company funds.
and had criminal charges filed against her (Composite Exhibit I attached). She was also the
source of the false information linking Plaintiffs to sex trafficking in the articles written by
of the website Jezebel (Composite Exhibit A. p.2-7).
5
EFTA00599863
25.
The deposition testimony of
referred to above clearly demonstrates that
Plaintiff Brunel has clean hands and was never involved in sex trafficking. All of Plaintiffs'
damages came solely from Epstein's conduct.
26.
Additionally. Plaintiff Brunel has had significant delays in obtaining his visa to come to
the ■. These delays were also the result of the false link between Plaintiffs and Epstein. As a
result of these delays. Plaintiffs lost a considerable amount of time & money. International
travel is a significant component of Plaintiff Brunel's MC2 modeling business. Plaintiff Brunel
has been forced to cancel his latest visa application as a result of the delays. (Exhibit J —
Composite — Visa Docs).
27.
As a result of the notoriety and tremendous publicity surrounding Epstein's criminal
charges. and the media linkage of Epstein to Plaintiffs regarding illegal activities. Plaintiffs lost a
tremendous amount of business and revenue.
28.
Plaintiff Brunel's agency MC2 has lost millions of dollars in revenue since the media
revealed that Plaintiffs and Epstein were associated. In fact. Plaintiff MC2 was worth millions of
dollars; now, due to the illegal actions of Epstein. MC2 is almost worthless.
29.
At no time did Epstein ever publicly state that Plaintiffs had no role whatsoever in the
Epstein's illegal activities.
30.
As a result of Epstein's illegal activities and his association with Plaintiffs, Plaintiffs
continue to lose money and suffer damages to this day. (Exhibit K attached. Jeff Fuller email,
11-12-14).
31.
Plaintiff Brunel will need to spend millions of dollars in order to restore his business to
what it was once worth — money that the Plaintiff Brunel does not have.
6
EFTA00599864
32.
Plaintiff Brunel continues to own and operate Plaintiff MC2 to this day, their names
never having been cleared from the massive and totally negative media coverage involving
Epstein and his illegal activities. Plaintiffs have been, and continue to be. irreparably harmed by
these false internet-based links to Epstein. (Exhibits R &' attached).
33.
Second. Plaintiff Brunel was also told by Epstein to leave the Palm Beach area in
anticipation of a deposition of Plaintiff Brunel in a criminal case against Epstein. On the direct
advice of Epstein, Plaintiff Brunel went to Europe and Asia for a period of time. This was done
for the sole purpose of delaying Plaintiff Brunel's deposition.
34.
As a direct result of Plaintiff Brunel's travels, his deposition was delayed twice. When it
was finally scheduled for November 2009. Plaintiff Brunel was in fact available (Exhibit I
attached). However, a medical emergency in the family of his attorney further delayed this
deposition (Exhibit M attached). It was never rescheduled and he was never deposed.
35.
This was a blatant example of obstruction of justice in the criminal case. Epstein was
solely responsible for telling Plaintiff Brunel to leave the area. Plaintiff Brunel lost a huge
opportunity to clear his name, and that of his agency. Plaintiff MC2.
36.
Third. as a result of all of the facts stated above. Plaintiff Brunel was under tremendous
psychological pressure throughout this period of time.
37.
This psychological pressure resulted in Plaintiff Brunel avoiding business contacts as set
forth above. This pressure also directly caused Plaintiff Brunel to avoid certain social contacts
during this period of time.
38.
Plaintiff Brunel became extremely withdrawn and anxious at this time.
39.
Epstein's conduct was the direct cause of Plaintiff Brunel's psychological state. The
press was reporting extensively on the lurid details of Epstein's illegal activities with the under-
aged girls.
7
EFTA00599865
40.
As stated above. the press reports were erroneously connecting both Plaintiffs to
Epstein's illegal activities. (Composite Exhibit A attached).
41.
Epstein's illegal activities were outrageous and extreme; they involved receiving
massages from the under-aged girls while the girls were nude or nearly-nude; penetration of the
girls with a finger or object; or full-intercourse.
42.
These activities described above caused Plaintiff Brunel severe emotional distress. In
fact, Plaintiff Brunel has recently undergone
with a local psychologist, Dr. Royce
N. Jalazo. as a result of Epstein's actions and the negative results on his business. (Exhibits N &
O attached).
43.
Plaintiff Brunel is emotionally destroyed as a result of Epstein's actions and the resultant
effects on his business. He has been on medications to deal with the effects of this. (Composite
Exhibit P — Medical History).
44.
Plaintiffs have been damaged by the conduct of Defendant Epstein, and have accordingly
retained undersigned counsel to represent him in this matter. and are obligated to pay counsel a

Epstein Faces Sex-Traffic Probe
The Justice Department is investigating Jeffrey Epstein for child trafficking, The Daily Beast has
learned—and has widened the scope of its probe to include a famous modeling agency.
Hedge-fund manager Jeffrey Epstein completed his sentence for soliciting prostitution with a
minor last week. But it appears his problems may not be over. Now The Daily Beast has learned
that:
• Federal investigators continue to investigate Epstein's activities, to see whether there is
evidence of child trafficking—a far more serious charge than the two in his non-
prosecution agreement, the arrangement between Epstein and the Department of Justice
allowing him to plead guilty to lower-level state crimes. Trafficking can carry a 20-year
sentence.
• The FBI is also investigating Epstein's friend Jean Luc Brunel, whose MC2 modeling
agency appears to have been a source of girls from overseas who ended up on Epstein's
private jets.
Because Epstein's predatory habits stretch back many years and involved dozens of young-
looking girls. there may well be more evidence to uncover.
Under the concept of double jeopardy, Epstein can no longer be prosecuted for any of the
charges covered by his non-prosecution agreement, in which he agreed to serve a short term of
incarceration, fund the civil suits of named victims, and register as a sex offender. The victims
who accepted cash settlements in these civil suits agreed not to testify against him or speak
publicly about the case. However, new evidence developed by the Department ofJustice on other
offenses not covered by the agreement, including allegations by additional victims who come
forward, could lead to new charges. There is no statute of limitations in the federal sex-
trafficking law, which was also enacted by the state of Florida in 2002. Because his predatory
habits stretch back many years and involved dozens of young-looking girls. there may well be
more evidence to uncover. (Several young women who claim to be Epstein victims have recently
contacted a Ft. Lauderdale lawyer. but to date no new civil complaints have been filed.)
•
The Billionaire Pedphile's Sex Den
• Billionaire Pedophile Goes Free
These new developments come one week after the publication of two articles in The Daily Beast
about Epstein's pattern of sexual contact with underage girls. which Palm Beach police began
investigating in 2005 and the U.S. Attorney's office then settled in a 2007 plea deal. The first
16
EFTA00599874
article quoted a deposition by then-Palm Beach Chief of Police Michael Reiter, in which he
stated that Epstein. a billionaire with many powerful friends. had received special treatment in
both his plea deal and the terms of his incarceration. Although federal investigators at one point
produced a draft 53-page indictment against Epstein. he was eventually allowed to plead guilty
to only two relatively minor state charges and receive a short term of incarceration: 13 months in
the county jail. during which he went to the office every day, and one year of community control,
during which he traveled frequently to New York and his private island in the Virgin Islands.
The Daily Beast has now discovered another instance in which Epstein apparently received
special consideration: As a convicted sex offender, he is required by law to undergo an impartial
psychological evaluation prior to sentencing and to receive psychiatric treatment during and after
incarceration. This is because child molesters tend to be repeat offenders with high rates of
recidivism. According to a source in law enforcement, however, Epstein was allowed to submit a
report by his private psychologist, Dr. Stephen Alexander of Palm Beach, Florida, whose phone
has since been disconnected with no forwarding information.
The Daily Beast's second article provided details about Epstein's systematic abuse of underage
girls at his Palm Beach mansion. where members of his staff allegedly recruited and paid a
parade of teenagers. most of them 16 or younger, to perform daily massages that devolved into
masturbation, groping, and sometimes full-blown sexual contact. It also revealed a monetary
relationship between Epstein and Jean Luc Brunel, a frequent visitor to whom he gave SI million
around the same time that Brunel was starting his MC2 modeling agency. Some of the young
girls MC2 recruited from overseas—often from Eastern Europe and South America—are known
to have been passengers on Epstein's private jets.
The U.S. Attorney General's Office in Florida says that it is against policy to confirm or deny the
existence of an investigation. Jeffrey Epstein's lawyer, Jack Goldberger. says he has no
knowledge of an ongoing probe, and he told The Daily Beast. "Jeffrey Epstein has fully
complied with all state and federal requirements that arise from the prior proceedings in Palm
Beach. There are no pending civil lawsuits. There are not and should not be any pending criminal
investigations, given Mr. Epstein's complete fulfillment of all the terms of his non-prosecution
agreement with the federal government."

Hedge fund mogul and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who went free this week, lived in a
depraved world of thrice-dail masse es
ornographic artwork, and hush money—that's
only now being revealed.
reports on the sordid details in part two of her
exclusive exposé. Also:
• Nude images of young girls were scattered around the house and the bathroom soap was
shaped like sex organs
• Staff trolled for fresh recruits to make sure Epstein had two or three massage
appointments each day
• The house manager has been sentenced to a longer prison term than Epstein—for trying
to sell notes regarding massage appointments
• Epstein gave $1 million to his friend Jean Luc Brunel when he was starting the modeling
agency MC2
• According to a former bookkeeper, young girls were brought to the U.S. by MC2—often
from Eastern Europe—then traveled on Epstein's private jets
Jeffrey Epstein's loyal friends say that his prosecution was unduly harsh, rather than
outrageously lenient. They insist that his sexual habits, although obsessive and unusual, were
mostly legal and essentially harmless. As the police records attest, the girls brought to El Brillo
Way were routinely told they could "say no" at any time during a massage as Epstein escalated
contact in a step-by-step assault that was remarkably similar in every victim's statement: First
she would be asked to remove her shirt, then her pants. Ile would attempt to fondle her buttocks
and breasts as he masturbated, then bring out a large vibrator. There was sometimes digital
penetration, and the more willing girls were lured into full-blown sexual relations with both
Epstein and
who was referred to in press accounts and police reports as
Epstein's live-in "sex slave."
A former bookkeeper in the Miami office, who also arranged visas for girls traveling to the U.S.,
confirmed that MC2 girls became frequent guests on Epstein's private jets.
I8
EFTA00599876
It's true that some underage girls may have lied about their age, and some came to the house
voluntarily several times—although, according to Florida statutes, none of that has any bearing
on the criminality of the contact, particularly if the girl was 16 or younger. But what is
particularly disturbing about this case—judging by arrangements at the Palm Beach house—is
that Epstein, a billionaire hedge-fund manager, organized his life around this sexual compulsion
in an open and methodical way that suggests he felt he was beyond the law.
•
Epstein Faces Sex Traffic Probe
• Billionaire Pedophile Goes Free
According to police who executed a search warrant, the house was decorated with large. framed
photos of nude young girls, and similar images were found stashed in an armoire and on the
computers seized at the house (although police found only bare cables where other computers
had been). Some bathrooms were stocked with soap in the shape of sex organs. and various sex
toys, such as a "twin torpedo" vibrator and creams and lubricants available at erotic specialty
shops, were stowed near the massage tables set up in several rooms upstairs.
E stein also enlisted his staff in the predatory activity, and four
. and --figured
in the FBI investigation. The Non Prosecution
Agreement stipulated that they would not be charged. According to police reports and sworn
statements in the civil suits, all four women, among their other duties, worked to ensure that an
appointment book for twice- or thrice-daily "massages" was stocked with fresh recruits.
Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late Czechoslovakian-born press baron Robert Maxwell. who
was for many years Epstein's live-in partner, also recruited young girls.
Since his 13-month sentence for soliciting prostitution with a minor, Epstein has settled more
than a dozen lawsuits brought by underage girls. Seven victims reached a last-minute deal last
week. days before a scheduled trial: each received well over SI million—an amount that will
hardly dent Epstein's $2 billion net worth.
The victims told police they waited in the kitchen to be called upstairs for a massage. and the
house chef often gave them a bite to eat. House manager Alfredo Rodriguez said in his sworn
statement that a maid named Lupita. who was a devout Catholic, wept when she complained to
him about cleaning up after the massage sessions, picking up soiled towels and putting away the
sex toys. And she was upset that a photo of Epstein with the pope hung next to one of him with a
young girl.
Ironically. Rodriguez. who ran the house on El Brillo Way in 2004 and 2005, ended up being
sentenced to more jail time than his boss as a result of the complex investigation into Epstein's
activities. Ile was fired, he says. for inadvertently drawing police attention to one of the girls
when she arrived at the house unannounced to collect money. Ile saw an unfamiliar "beater" in
the driveway one evening and called 911. When he left Epstcin's employ. Rodriguez took away
some notes and emails about massage appointments as "protection" against his own prosecution.
and failed to produce them during the Palm Beach Police Department's initial investigation.
Unable to get work as a house manager elsewhere in South Florida, he says. Rodriguez later tried
to sell this "golden nugget"—his term—for $50,000, to be used in the victims' civil suits.
19
EFTA00599877
Unfortunately, he made the offer to an undercover cop. and was subsequently charged with
"obstruction of official proceedings" for withholding information that could have advanced the
criminal investigation of Epstein—which by that point had been settled in a plea deal. Rodriguez
was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison (Epstein was allowed to serve 13 months in the
Palm Beach county jail), and now awaits an additional sentence on Aug. 24 in federal court in
Miami for transporting firearms, another deal he says he made to pay the bills after he lost his
job.
In a deposition given for the civil suits. Rodriguez testified that he was instructed to always have
$2,000 in cash on hand, so that he could pay both the girls who gave massages and recruiters
such as
who brought them to the house. He also testified that Epstein made large
contributions to the Palm Beach Police Department, and in return was given PBPD baseball hats
to put on the dashboard of his various cars to avoid being stopped or ticketed by local police.
Retired Police Chief Michael Reiter, in his own deposition, acknowledged that, in addition to
earlier donations to the police department (which are fairly common in well-heeled Palm Beach),
Epstein had recently given the department $100,000 for some sophisticated equipment. The
police were still researching the purchase when Epstein came under suspicion, and Reiter
ordered the money returned. (Guy Frostin, one of Epstein's local attorneys, told police that
Epstein also gave $100.000 to the Florida Ballet for massages, because he was "very passionate"
about massages being "therapeutically and spiritually" beneficial. Yet victims told police they
had no massage training.)
Perhaps most disturbing, in terms of possible sex trafficking, was Epstein's relationship with
Jean Luc Brunel. owner of the MC2 modeling agency. According to a complaint filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern Di trict of Florida, an alleged victim said that Epstein, Maxwell.
Brunel, Rodriguez, and
"deliberately engaged in a pattern of racketeering that
involved luring minor children through MC2, mostly girls under the age of 17, to engage in
sexual play for money." (Which would amount to trafficking.)
Brunel is a 50-plus French playboy who was formerly part owner of Karin. a Paris-based
modeling agency. He lives in New York and South Beach, Florida. and owns 85 percent of MC2.
which has offices in New York, Miami, and Tel Aviv. (The remaining 15 percent is owned by
his partner, Jeff Fuller.) Brunel has been observed as a house guest at Epstein's Palm Beach
home and may well have had contact with him also in New York, where Epstein owns a lavish
home, and in Paris, where Epstein keeps an apartment on elegant Ave. Foch.
CBS reporter Craig Pyes, who investigated Brunel for a 60 Minutes broadcast many years ago. is
quoted in Michael Gross' book about the modeling industry, Afodel: The l'uly Business of
Beautiful Women. Pyes told the author that Brunel "ranks among the sleaziest people in the
fashion industry. We're talking about a conveyor belt, not a casting couch. Hundreds of girls
were not only harassed but molested." Now The Daily Beast has learned that Epstein had made a
$I million wire transfer to Brunel's offshore bank account in September 2004, just as he was
setting up MC2. Whether this was a gift or a loan or a backdoor investment in the new venture is
unknown. A French citizen who managed to avoid giving evidence in the Epstein investigation,
Brunel declined to comment on any of this. as does Fuller. Asked in April of Brunel's activities.
20
EFTA00599878
Epstein said "I'm 100 percent convinced that he doesn't traffic children." (Brunel has never been
charged.)
An American fashion designer who booked her girls through MC2 says they were very young
and very beautiful; many were from Eastern Europe and spoke little English. A former
bookkeeper in the agency's Miami office, who also arranged visas for girls traveling to the U.S..
confirmed that MC2 girls became frequent guests on Epstein's private jets.
Pilot logs obtained in the civil suits show that some of the named plaintiffs were on the flight
manifests. Other times, the pilot would just list the other passengers plus "female."
Editor's Note: An earlier version of this article misidentified the subject of Craig Pyes'
investigation and the title of Michael Gross' book. The Daily Beast has corrected the subject and
title and regrets the error.

MC2 Modeling Agency Involved In Sex Trafficking
August 11,2010
On August 4th Jezebel ran the following story: The Sex- traftickine Model Scout.
Perhaps most disturbing, in terms of possible sex trafficking. was Epstein's relationship with Jean
Luc Brunel, owner of the MC2 modeling agency. According to a complaint filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of Florida, an alleged victim said that Epstein

'deliberately engaged in a pattern of racketeering that involved luring minor children through
MC2, mostly girls under the age of 17. to engage in sexual play for money.
The previous paragraph in the story read:
and making [speaking of Jeffrey Epstein] frequent $100,000 donations to the Palm Beach Police
Department would insulate him from prosecution for his various depravities.
Which included, for the record: b '

-old Yugloslavian named

as his "sex slave"; paying a retinue of women to
trawl Palm Beach for teenagers economically desperate enough to agree to give Epstein
"massages" that often led to sexual contact; receiving two 12-year-old French girls as a "birthday
present"; and befriending Michael Wolff.

He's helping others get away with child-sex trafficking
Posted on August 20. 2010 by Petty Fokkr
Let's discuss that billionaire douche-face child-rapist, JelTrey Epstein for a moment shall
we? He's someone who likes to have sex with venerable underage girls, including 12 year old
girls who are trafficked into the US under the guise that they will become models. His partner in
crime was Jean Luc Brunel owner and 'talent scout' of the MC2 "modeling agency". Epstein
coincidently invested a million bucks in the MC2 kiddie-rem-fin modeling agency and let
Brunel use his privet jet.
The FBI thinks Epstein has assaulted/molested about 40 or so young girls. So he's going to
prison for the rest of his life right? Wrong.
When faced with the best defense lawyers money could buy, the prosecutors wimped out and
made a plea bargain so light it boggles the mind. This kid-raping bastard only had to please
guilty to two MINOR charges and gets a private cell, a cell he gets to leave on a "work release
program" by the way.
Now. I am not blaming his defense attorneys. They were doing their job and, under our
constitution, a festering anus like Epstein has the right to the best attorneys he can afford.
am livid with the prosecuting attorneys. It was their job to do everything in their power to bring
this vomit-inducing shit-sack to justice. Instead, they decided to gutlessly pander to his wealth.
privilege, and powerful defense team. They rolled over and did everything but send in another
kid to give this fucker a hand-job. So this vermin got away with raping 12 year old girls because
the prosecuting attorneys couldn't find a single testicle/ovary to share among them.
And do you know what their chicken-shit kowtowing to Epstein has wrought? It's opened the
door for other child-sex traffickers to get filthier sentences for their crimes too. Why should they
have to pay when he didn't? After all, it was just girls they were trafficking for sex with
disgusting older males (I refuse to call something like Epstein a "man": it insults men) ... they
weren't harming anything of any value in our culture!
I'm a feminist because I think girls & women have value. What a crying, fucking shame there
wasn't one feminist in the prosecutors office to go after this monster and punish him. What a pity
other hell-spawn might get away with trafficking girls for sex more easily because of the shit-
for-brains attorneys who let Epstein get away with his crimes.
My eyeballs are melting with rage.
Never mind. They aren't melting. It's just tears of helpless and despairing rage against an unjust
legal system and the cultural devaluation of women and girls.

Recently-Freed Sex Offender Jeffrey Epstein May Face Child Trafficking
Charges

,leffrev Epstein, the billionaire Bill Clinton pal who just left jail after completing a sentence for
soliciting sex with a minor, may be headed back soon: The Daily Beast reports that the Justice
Department is investigating him for child trafficking.
Epstein, famous for being rich, being friends ‘v ith Bill Clinton having an egg-shaped penis. and
being a vindictive pervert, can't be
for the charges he copped to in his plea deal.
But according to the Daily Beast's
new charges might be coming:
As we learned in Vanity Fair yesterday. Bill Clinton has spent his post-presidential life...Read
more
Federal investigators continue to investigate Epstein's activities, to see whether there is evidence
of child trafficking-a far more serious charge than the two in his non-prosecution agreement, the
arrangement between Epstein and the Department of Justice allowing him to plead guilty to
lower-level state crimes. Trafficking can carry a 20-year sentence.
Since there's no statute of limitations for sex-trafficking, and Epstein's predatory adventures
apparently date back more than a few years, it's likely there's more women who could come
forward. (Apparently some have contacted a lawyer, but nothing's been filed yet.)
It's not just Epstein, either—his buddy Jean Luc Brunel, head of the MC2 modeling agency, is
also being investigated, and some of the models he represented (many from overseas) may have
been enlisted as companions on Epstein's private jet.

MIAMI (AP) — Nearly a decade ago, a wealthy financial guru came under FBI investigation.
suspected of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls at his Palm Beach mansion. Then,
abruptly, the investigation was dropped and Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to a single state
charge of soliciting prostitution. He served just over a year in jail.
Now, two women who say they were among his victims have won a precedent-setting appeals
court ruling entitling them to see all the documents from the plea bargain discussions between
Epstein's high-powered lawyers and federal prosecutors.
Their goal: use those tiles to undo the agreement. reopen the investigation and subject Epstein to
more charges.
The women's lawyers contend Epstein got special treatment because of his wealth and
connections. His attorneys deny that.
Epstein. 61. made hundreds of millions of dollars managing funds for rich clients. Shortly after
his 2008 guilty plea. it came to light that his lawyers had secretly reached a non-prosecution
agreement months earlier with the U.S. .lustice Department that spared him a potentially heavier
punishment.
"Our complaint alleges that, prodded by Epstein. the federal prosecutors deliberately concealed
the sweetheart plea deal they made with him to avoid public criticism." said Paul Cassell. a
University of Utah law professor who is representing the two women.
The U.S. attorney's office in Miami would not comment. But the U.S. attorney at the time. R.
Alexander Acosta. said in a 2011 letter defending his office that more evidence came to light
after Epstein made his deal.
"Many victims have spoken out. filing detailed statements in civil cases seeking damages.
Physical evidence has been discovered." Acosta wrote. "Had these additional statements and
evidence been known. the outcome may have been different."
Epstein has settled lawsuits for undisclosed amounts with many of the women who say they were
underage when they were paid for sex.
The case represents the first time a federal appeals court has ruled that the Crime Victims' Rights
Act of 2004 guarantees victims the right to be informed about the details of how a plea bargain
was reached. according to legal experts and lawyers involved in the case. The law marked the
culmination of efTons begun in the 1960s to give crime victims more of a say.

EFTA00599883
"I hope that the case will ultimately set an important precedent that federal prosecutors can't keep
victims in the dark about the plea deals that they reach? Cassell said.
Epstein served 13 months of an 18-month sentence on the prostitution charge. sold his Palm
Beach home in 2011 and now divides his time between a New York City home. a Caribbean
island and an apartment in Paris. according to court documents. He also has a large New Mexico
ranch.
He donates huge sums each year. particularly toward projects involving new medical treatments
and artificial intelligence. His foundation established a Harvard University program that uses
mathematics to study evolutionary biology. viruses and disease.
According to lawsuits filed by some of his accusers. Epstein relied on assistants to recruit
underage girls to give him massages and perform sex acts. They were usually paid about $200.
Seine girls were notified about the investigation beginning in 2006. But they weren't told about
the negotiations with federal prosecutors for at least nine months, despite a requirement in the
Crime Victims' Rights Act that they be kept informed. The two women — who were 13 and 14
when the alleged assaults occurred — sued for the files and won.
"Although plea negotiations are vital to the functioning of the criminal justice system. a
prosecutor and target of a criminal prosecution do not enjoy a relationship of confidence and
trust when they negotiate." the appeals court said.
Federal prosecutors have begun turning over the documents.
Epstein's attorney. Roy Black, the celebrity lawyer who is also representing Justin Bieber in his
DUI and resisting-arrest case in Miami Beach. declined to comment but has asked that the
documents be kept from public view. and so far they have been.
In a May 23 court filing. Black said that there was no conspiracy between prosecutors and
Epstein's team to violate the victims' rights law and that the non-prosecution agreement
contained many provisions Epstein strongly opposed. such as registering as a sex offender and
agreeing not to contest certain lawsuits.
"This was no sweetheart deal by any stretch of the imagination." Black said in court papers.
Even if a judge invalidates the plea deal, it will still be up to federal prosecutors to decide what
to do.
"The court can't force the prosecutors to bring charges." said Man Alexrod. a former federal
prosecutor now in private practice in Washington.

Regulating Modeling Agencies to Help
Prevent Child Sex Trafficking
Posted: 02/10/2012 8:49 pm
In 2010, Jezebel, an online site, published "The Sex Trafficking Model Scout" warning about the
dangers of deregulated modeling agencies in the U.S.
Given the growing number of modeling agencies that transport underage teenagers from foreign
countries into the United States and the growing sex trade of underage girls in the U.S. why does
this industry remain deregulated?
Since the advent of this business, modeling agencies have had free reign to scout teenagers from
every state in the country as well as every nation in the world. Many of these teenage girls come
from economically disadvantaged families and are offered none to very limited protection while
traveling and working as "models."
Jezebel reported that Jean Luc Brunel, one of the cast of characters involved in the ongoing
Jeffrey Epstein (a level 3 registered sex offender), eight-year-long case, has been working for
over two decades with a succession of agencies in New York and Paris. According to media
reports, Diane Sawyer produced a segment for CBS's 60 Minutes featuring a sex scandal that
eventually led Eileen Ford (founder of renowned Ford modeling agency) to stop working with
Brunel.
Bruncl's latest venture is the modeling agency MC2 based in South Beach. Fla. with satellite
offices in New York and Tel Aviv. Since his agency is deregulated and "no criminal charges
have been filed by any of his accusers" — although many have tried to serve him including
lawyers representing Epstein's victims, Brunel continues to hide behind his French citizenship to
prevent depositions. "Trawling for 5'1 I" underage teenagers to work for his agency. MC2, or
anyone else who requests. Brunel is free to scout for very young girls without limitations." Given
his citizenship he also successfully avoided deposition in Epstein's sex related cases.
Like so many other reporters who have tried to report his side of the story when Jezebel
contacted Brunel. "he did not respond to our interview request." According to Jezebel:
27
EFTA00599885
we spoke to a number of people who worked with his agency and while MC2 isn't considered a
major industry player, it isn't exactly bottom-shelf, either... Brunel isn't involved with the
business on a day-to-day basis, although he owns an 85 percent stake in MC2. Instead, he does
scouting for the agency and takes care of the international relations with other agencies, reports
one source. Scouts scour the world for unrepresented teenage girls who could make it as models.
They work largely unsupervised and are generally paid a headhunting fee for every girl an
agency signs. Even when affiliated with an agency, as Brunel obviously is with MC2, scouts
operate mostly independently and with little oversight. The company blog refers to Brunel as a
'scouting tsunami' and MC2 is fairly well known for the strength of its international scouting.
Model, Michael Gross's 1995 book, describes Brunet's activities in Paris from the late 1970s
onwards, when he worked for, and eventually owned, the modeling agency Karin. "Jean-Luc is
considered a danger." says Jen5me Bonnouvrier. "Owning Karin was a dream for a playboy. His
problem is that he knows exactly what girls in trouble are looking for. He's always been on the
edge of the system."
John Casablancas, founder of Elite modeling agency said:
I really despise Jean-Luc as a human being for the way he's cheapened the business. There is no
justice. This is a guy who should be behind bars. There was a little group, Jean-Luc. Patrick
Gilles, and Varsano. They were very well known in Paris for roaming the clubs. They would
invite girls and put drugs in their drinks. Everybody knew they were creeps? Casablancas was a
professional rival who was pushed out of his agency for questionable concerns.
Katie Ford human trafficking abolitionist and Eileen Ford's daughter, talked to the Wall Street
Journal magazine. In that stun "A Model Trade Union," Ford describes herself as a "roving
ambassador" to help stop human trafficking. Ford sold her stake in the family business in 2007 to
the private equity firm Stone Tower Equity. "In her new life as a nearly full-time, unpaid, roving
ambassador for the cause her job is an outgrowth of her former work, rather than a repudiation of
it. or an atonement.
Her interest in human trafficking began when a representative of the United Nations called to ask
if she would participate in a women's leadership group that was studying the issue of trafficking.
"I said, 'I can't come talk about it, because I don't know anything about it!'" Ford recalls. "But
went, and after two hours. I knew why I was there. The way people traffic across borders is
parallel to the way we recruit models. According to Ford "the target age is 14 to 24. and so it's
similar to modeling." I knew how to reach that market" she said. "It was the feeling of: There but
for the grace of God... The girls who came to us could have been those girls."

The Sex-Trafficking Model Scout
28
EFTA00599886
xpand
Jeffrey Epstein, the billionaire financier who the FBI believes molested around 40 underaged
girls, was assisted by a prominent modeling agent and scout. Here's what we know about Jean
Luc Brunel.
Jeffrey Epstein, you will no doubt recall, is the man who thought ferrying Bill Clinton on his
private jet, lawyering up with superstar Alan Dershowitz, and making frequent SI00,000
donations to the Palm Beach Police Department would insulate him from prosecution for his
various depravities.
Say you're not as famous or celebrated as Roman Polanski and you want to sexually
assault...Read inure
Which included, for the record: bu in a 4- ear-old Yugloslavian named
from her parents in order to keep
as his "sex slave"; paying a retinue of women to
trawl Palm Beach for teenagers economically desperate enough to agree to give Epstein
"massages" that often led to sexual contact; receiving two 12-year-old French girls as a "birthday
present"; and befriending Michael Wolff.
But as
wrote at The Daily Beast:
Perhaps most disturbing, in terms of possible sex trafficking. was Epstein's relationship with Jean
Luc Brunel, owner of the MC2 modeling agency. According to a complaint filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of Florida, an alleged victim said that Epstein
and girlfriend Ghislaine] Maxwell, Brunel, [house manager Alfredo] Rodriguez. and
'deliberately engaged in a pattern of racketeering that involved luring minor children through
MC2, mostly girls under the age of 17, to engage in sexual play for money.'
The FBI investigated Epstein. and identified around 40 underaged victims. Samoff reports that
the FBI is also investigating MC2 and Brunel for possibly engaging in child sex trafficking.
Since pleading guilty to reduced charges of soliciting sex with a minor and serving 13 months of
29
EFTA00599887
part-time jail. Epstein has become the focus of numerous civil lawsuits from his victims. He has
so far settled a dozen.
These same civil complaints allege that young girls from South America, Europe. and the former
Soviet republics, few of whom spoke English. were recruited for Esptein's sexual pleasure.
According to a former bookkeeper, a number of the girls worked for MC2, the modeling agency
owned by Jean Luc Brunel, a longtime acquaintance and frequent guest of Epstein's.
Brunel, along with numerous young models, was a frequent passenger on Epstein's private jet,
according to flight manifests. The agency owner also allegedly received SI million from Epstein
in 2005, when he founded MC2 with his partner. Jeffrey Fuller; although Fuller and Brunel
denied any such payment from the billionaire pervert in 2007, when rumors started swirling,
Samoff got confirmation from a former bookkeeper at the agency. Whether the money was a
secret investment in MC2, or a payment for Brunel's services as a procurer. is unknown. Brunel
also %isited Epstein in jail.
So who is Jean Luc Brunel? Although he did not respond to our interview request, we spoke to a
number of people who have worked with his agency. While MC2 isn't considered a major
industry player, it isn't exactly bottom-shelf, either: MC2 in New York most recently launched
the career of Latvian editorial star Ginta Lapina (Brunel "discovered" Lamina via an MC2
scoutint! competition for young teens) and currently represents Vogue China covergirl Liu Dan.
Worldwide, MC2 represents such stars as Sessilec Lopez in Miami. and top models Candace
Swanepoel, Marina Lynchuk, Natalia Chabanenko. and Elisa Sednaoui in Tel Aviv.
Brunel isn't involved with the business on a day-to-day basis, although he owns an 85% stake in
MC2. Instead. "Right now he does scouting for [the] agency and takes care of the international
relations with other agencies." reports one source. Scouts scour the world for un-agented
teenaged girls who could make it as models; they work largely unsupervised and are generally
paid a headhunting fee for every girl an agency signs. Even when affiliated with an agency, as
Brunel obviously is with MC2, scouts operate mostly independently and with little oversight —
even relative to the almost totally unregulated modeling industry itself. "He travels a lot." says
another person who has worked with Brunel. (The company blog refers to Brunel as a "scoutin
tsunami." and MC2 is fairly well-known for the strength of its international scouting.)
Models we spoke to report mostly positive experiences with Brunel
one praised his sense of
humor and said he is "lovely to all of his models," and another described him as highly
intelligent and cultured, adding, "he knows a lot about the opera and he paints" — although it
should be noted that none of the models whom we spoke to had been told of either his
connections with Epstein. or his past.
And what a past it is. These accounts from Michael Gross' 1995 book Model describe Brunel's
activities in Paris from the late I 970s onwards, when he worked for, and eventually owned, the
modeling agency Karins. now known as Karin Paris:
"Jean-Luc is considered a danger." says Jerome Bonnouvrier. "Owning Karins was a dream for a
playboy. His problem is that he knows exactly what girls in trouble are looking for. He's always
30
EFTA00599888
been on the edge of the system. John Casablancas gets with girls the healthy way. Girls would be
with him if he was the butcher. They're with Jean-Luc because he's the boss. Jean-Luc likes
drugs and silent rape. It excites him."
"I really despise Jean-Luc as a human being for the way he's cheapened the business," says John
Casablancas. "There is no justice. This is a guy who should be behind bars. There was a little
group, Jean-Luc. Patrick Gilles, and Varsano...They were very well-known in Paris for roaming
the clubs. They would invite girls and put drugs in their drinks. Everybody knew they were
creeps."
It should be noted that aside from being a professional rival. Casablancas, the founder of the
agency Elite. was eventually drubbed out of the industry for his own modelizing. How pervy do
you have to be for John Casablancas to call you a perv?
Pervy enough to drug and rape numerous teenagers. according to 60 Minutes and Diane Sawyer,
who investigated Brunel in 1988. The program interviewed nearly two dozen models who said
they had been sexually assaulted by Brunel and/or by his fellow agent, Claude Haddad. Even at
that time. Brunel had a reputation as a man one could go to to procure a "date" with a young
model. CBS spoke to five models who said that Brunel and/or his friends had drugged and raped
them. Said producer Craig Pyes, "Hundreds of girls were not only harassed, but molested."
When Gross interviewed Brunel. this is what he had to say for himself:
"You get laid tonight with a model, is that a crime? I don't understand why people go into your
personal life, what you do yourself. and to yourself. and they don't look at things that are really
important."
Since then. Brunel has been involved with a succession of agencies in New York and Paris.
Although the 60 Minutes scandal eventually led Eileen Ford to stop working with him, he
continued his involvement with Karins. In 1988. when powerhouse agency Next opened its
doors, Brunel took an ownership stake. He also "discovered" Christy Turlington when she was
14. MC2 is only his latest venture. Because no criminal charges were ever filed by any of his
accusers. and because the industry has a short memory — most models working today weren't
even born when Sawyer and Pyes started looking into Brunel's activities — Brunel has been free
to continue as he pleases. A French citizen, he even avoided testifying in his friend Epstein's
trial.
And so Brunel is still criss-crossing the globe. trawling for 5'10" I3-year-olds from Eastern
Europe and (the whiter Darts ol) South America. And apparently taking the occasional ride with
them on Epstein's private jet. Is there any better argument for the regulation of the modeling
industry?

Jeffrey Epstein's Level 3 sex offender status
upheld by NY appeals court
By Dareh Gregorian
November 18, 2011 5:00am
Multimillionaire pery Jeffrey Epstein may not consider his Florida conviction for soliciting a
minor a big deal, but New York does.
A state appeals court yesterday upheld the financier's status as a Level 3 sex offender —
meaning he's considered "a threat to public safety" and a "high risk" to offend again.
Epstein, 58, did 13 months in a Florida jail for soliciting a minor to perform a sex act on him
during a "massage."
Although he was never indicted or convicted for hiring any other underage girls. the state
Appellate Division found there was "clear and convincing evidence" he had indeed done so.
making the Level 3 designation appropriate.

TIIE owners of MC2 models are denying industry speculation that massage maven Jeffrey
Epstein is a secret financial backer of the agency being run by scandal-scarred Jean-Luc
Brunel, who was once accused of taking advantage of underage models.
Epstein, who this week agreed to plead guilty to soliciting underage prostitutes at his Florida
mansion in a deal that will send him to prison for about 18 months. reportedly gave "millions" to
start MC2, which opened in October 2005 with offices in New York. Miami and Tel Aviv. One
of the girls Epstein, 54, was accused of soliciting massages from was described in court
documents as being just 14.
"E equals MC squared ... get it, like the equation? E equals Epstein. He just thinks everyone is
too dumb to figure it out," said a model industry insider. "He's a desperate old man that
fantasizes and takes advantage of young girls."
The trouble doesn't stop there.
Karins Models founder Brunel,
currently a partner in MC2, denied allegations in a 1997
"60 Minutes" segment that he took advantage of young models who were high on drugs. Brunel
also reportedly left his Trump Tower digs in 1999 after complaints of night carousing, which he
also denied.
Disgraced former Elite models exec Gerald Marie is also involved with MC2. says our source.
Marie was accused of having sex with underage models in a 1999 BBC documentary where he
was filmed saying he hoped to seduce contestants in a modeling contest in which the average age
of participants was IS. He also dated Linda Evangelista when she was a teen.
"He's also involved in the agency." said the source. "Gerald and Jean-Luc like the same things.
They hang out because they have young girls in common. like two guys who enjoy the same
wine."
MC2 president Jeffrey Fuller confirmed Brunel was a partner in the company. but denied any
working relationship with either Epstein or Marie.
"We have no relationship business-wise with Gerald Marie. Jeffrey Epstein has no ownership or
involvement in our company and never has. Jean-Luc Brunel and I are the only two partners and
owners of MC2 Model Management." Fuller said.
Epstein's rep said he was not involved in the agency. "He has no business relationship with
them," said Howard Rubenstein.

Lawsuit documents link Jeffrey Epstein to
modeling agency owner Jean Luc Brunel
By Michele Daman
Daily News Staff Writer
New court filings in a civil case filed by billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein link Epstein and
Jean Luc Brunel. owner of modeling agency MC2.
The documents say MC2 employees told attorney Brad Edwards that Epstein's condos at 301 E.
66th St. in New York City were used to house young models.
Edwards, who has sued Epstein on behalf of several women claiming to be victims of sex abuse
by Epstein, was told MC2 brought underage girls in from all over the world, promising them
modeling contracts.
"Epstein and Brunel would then obtain a visa for these girls, then would charge the underage
girls rent." the documents say.
Through the investigation of his lawsuits against Epstein, Edwards leaned Brunel "runs the
modeling agency MC2, a company for which Epstein provides financial support." the documents
say.
They also allege Epstein tried to thwart Edwards from taking depositions of Brunel, Epstein's
companion Guislaine Maxwell. and other high-profile names such as President Bill Clinton.
Details are listed in more than 62 pages filed by attorney Jack Scarola on behalf of Edwards in
the lawsuit Epstein filed against Edwards. Edwards represents four of Epstein's minor victims.
three of whom have settled their cases with Epstein under a confidential agreement.
Epstein attorneys Christopher Knight and Joseph Ackerman declined to comment Friday on the
court filings.
Edwards deposed Brunel. but his attorney delayed it and then said he was back in France with no
plans to return. But according to the court papers, Brunel was staying with Epstein in Palm
Beach during that period.
34
EFTA00599892
The court filings describe Brunel as one of Epstein's closest pals.
Regarding Maxwell. the documents refer to sworn testimony by Epstein's former house
manager, Alfredo Rodriguez, explaining how Maxwell took photos of girls without the girls'
knowledge, "kept the images on her computer, knew the names of the underage girls and their
respective phone numbers and other underage victims."
According to the documents: Maxwell allegedly lied about her mother being ill and having to fly
back to England one day before a scheduled deposition in Edwards' case against Epstein.
Despite that assertion, Maxwell was captured in a photo for OK magazine. attending the wedding
of Chelsea Clinton two days later.
Epstein has settled more than two dozen lawsuits and claims against him by young women who
say they were lured to his El Brillo Way mansion as teens to give him sexually charged massages
and/or sex in exchange for money. The terms of all settlements are confidential.
Rodriguez took a journal from Epstein's computer that listed the names of his underage victims
from around the country and the world. Calling it the "Holy Grail," Rodriguez tried to sell the
journal for $50,000 to victims' attorneys. He pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice and is
serving 18 months in federal prison.
Epstein. 57, served 13 months of an I8-month state sentence. Ile ended his one-year probation in
July on state charges of soliciting prostitution and soliciting a minor for prostitution.
According to flight logs from Epstein's private planes. Clio Af
leveral times on Epstein's
planes, many times with Maxwell, Palm Beach resident
and Adriana Mucinska —
"all employees and/or co-conspirators of Epstein's,'" according to the court papers.
The documents show that Clinton flew with Epstein. "then suddenly stopped — raising the
suspicion that the friendship abruptly ended ...
"Epstein's personal phone directory from his computer contains -
dresses for Clinton
along with 21 phone numbers for him ... and what appears to be
personal numbers," the
court papers say.
Allegations in the documents say Epstein threatened victims — including Edwards' client Jane
Doe — despite no-contact orders in effect.
Epstein had Doe tailed by a private investigator as her trial date neared, the court filings say. One
time, Doc was so frightened that she fled her home in the company of a retired police officer and
was taken to a hiding place. according to the court papers.

First came the knowledge that slaves still existed and were present in larger numbers than ever
before. Then the realization that a human being could be purchased within a few hours of my
home for under S100. Now only a few miles away In the following years I've been learning the
myriad forms, places and types of slavery. The list keeps lengthening and with each new form

Slavery
Debt Bondage
Sexual Slavery
Child Brides
Forced Labor
Child Soldiers

Organ Trafficking
Trafficked Athletes
And now a new one / should have seen coming.
Those very young, foreign models you see? Some of them were trafficked by model scouts who
literally trawled through some of the most destitute and vulnerable people on earth for them. The
same methods as other predatory traffickers: Go to politically or economically unstable areas:
locate 5'11"beautiful young girls; buy them, import them, own them, use them.
Horrible irony to have images that portray us to the world possibly be of slaves.
It's hard to think of an area of our society that doesn't admire seeing it's most vaunted members
with a model on their arm. While this observation does not imply that those people were
trafficked, imagine how simple that makes it to approach a child or it's family anywhere in the
world and offer them this in return for absolute control.
All ite traffickers have to do is pull out a magazine or phone with videos on it.
I'm not shocked at traffickers using this method of promises to lure unsuspecting girls into
slavery, I've seen it, read about it, studied it. I'm in shock that it flourishes in the most visible,

glaring spotlight of our culture, the part that worhips and presents our current idea of beauty in
almost everything we touch.
These victims are on the most prominent slave block ever, emulated by our children, coveted by
our culture-makers and our society, and standing in the brightest global spotlight in the
world. In plain sight. reported on in numerous stories for decades and yet only escalating in
usage until they've become the golden mean.
We can quietly ignore the ones resold daily in our town, who made our clothes, chocolate,
housewares, provided the gold on our fingers and necks, electronics in our hands, labor in our
fields. Here, finally, are slaves we fantasize about being, emulating, allow our society to be
shaped by, consider trophies.
What will this say about us if we don't drastically change it? All of it.

before. Then the realization that a human being could be purchased within a few hours of my
home for under S100. Now only a few miles away. In the following years I've been learning the
myriad forms, places and types of slavery. The list keeps lengthening and with each new form
(to me), ! learn about . it knocks me down, one more time.
Slaver,
Debt Bondage
Sexual Slavery
Child Brides
Forced Labor
Child Soldiers
Adoption Trafficking
Organ Trafficking
Trafficked Athletes
And now a new one I should have seen coming.
Those very young, foreign models you see? Some of them were trafficked by model scouts who
literally trawled through some of the most destitute and vulnerable people on earth for them. The
same methods as other predatory traffickers: Go to politically or economically unstable areas:
locate 5'1 I" beautiful young girls: buy them, import them, own them, use them.
Horrible irony to have images that portray us to the world possibly be of slaves.
It's hard to think of an area of our society that doesn't admire seeing it's most vaunted members
with a model on their arm. While this observation does not imply that those people were
trafficked, imagine how simple that makes it to approach a child or it :s family anywhere in the
world and offer them this in return for absolute control.
All ite traffickers have to do is pull out a magazine or phone with videos on it.

EFTA00599897
I'm not shocked at traffickers using this method of promises to lure unsuspecting girls into
slavery, I've seen it, read about it, studied it. I'm in shock that itflourishes in the most visible,
glaring spotlight of our culture, the part that worhips and presents our current idea of beauty in
almost everything we touch.
These victims are on the most prominent slave block ever, emulated by our children, coveted by
our culture-makers and our society. and standing in the brightest global spotlight in the
world. In plain sight, reported on in numerous stories for decades and yet only escalating in
usage until they've become the golden mean.
We can quietly ignore the ones resold daily in our town, who made our clothes, chocolate,
housewares, provided the gold on our fingers and necks, electronics in our hands, labor in our
fields. Here, finally, are slaves we fantasize about being, emulating, allow our society to be
shaped by, consider trophies.
What will this say about us if we don't drastically change it? All of it.

Regulating Modeling Agencies to Help Prevent Child Sex Trafficking
Conch ita Samoa'
Posted: 02/10/2012 8:49 pm
In 2010, Jezebel, an online site, published "The S x Trafficking Model Scout" warning about the
dangers of deregulated modeling agencies in the M.
siii
Given the growing number of modeling agencies that transport underage teenager
m foreign
countries into the United States and the growing sex trade of underage girls in the
. why does
this industry remain deregulated?
Since the advent of this business. modeling agencies have had free reign to scout teenagers from
every state in the country as well as every nation in the world. Many of these teenage girls come
from economically disadvantaged families and are offered none to very limited protection while
traveling and working as "models."
Jezebel reported that Jean Luc Brunel, one of the cast of characters involved in the ongoing
Jeffrey Epstein (a level 3 registered sex offender), eight-year-long case, has been working for
iii
over two decades with a succession of agencie '
w York and Paris. According to media
reports, Diane Sawyer produced a segment for
60 Minutes featuring a sex scandal that
eventually led Eileen Ford (founder of renowned Ford modeling agency) to stop working with
Brunel.
Brunel's latest venture is the modeling agency MC2 based in South Beach, Fla. with satellite
offices in New York and Tel Aviv. Since his agency is deregulated and "no criminal charges
40
EFTA00599898
have been filed by any of his accusers" — although many have tried to serve him including
lawyers representing Epstein's victims. Brunel continues to hide behind his French citizenship to
prevent depositions. "Trawling for 5' I I" underage teenagers to work for his agency, MC2, or
anyone else who requests, Brunel is free to scout for very young girls without limitations." Given
his citizenship he also successfully avoided deposition in Epstein's sex related cases.
Like so many other reporters who have tried to report his side of the story when Jezebel
contacted Brunel, "he did not respond to our interview request." According to Jezebel:
we spoke to a number of people who worked with his agency and while MC2 isn't considered a
major industry player, it isn't exactly bottom-shelf, either... Brunel isn't involved with the
business on a day-to-day basis, although he owns an 85 percent stake in MC2. Instead, he does
scouting for the agency and takes care of the international relations with other agencies. reports
one source. Scouts scour the world for unrepresented teenage girls who could make it as models.
They work largely unsupervised and are generally paid a headhunting fcc for every girl an
agency signs. Even when affiliated with an agency, as Brunel obviously is with MC2, scouts
operate mostly independently and with little oversight. The company blog refers to Brunel as a
'scouting tsunami' and MC2 is fairly well known for the strength of its international scouting.
Model. Michael
1995 book, describes Brunel's activities in Paris from the late 1970s
onwards, when he worked for, and eventually owned, the modeling agency Karin. "Jean-Luc is
considered a danger," says Jerome Bonnouvricr. "Owning Karin was a dream for a playboy. His
problem is that he knows exactly what girls in trouble are looking for. He's always been on the
edge of the system."
John Casablancas, founder of Elite modeling agency said:
I really despise Jean-Luc as a human being for the way he's cheapened the business. There is no
justice. This is a guy who should be behind bars. There was a little group, Jean-Luc, Patrick
Gilles, and Varsano. They were very well known in Paris for roaming the clubs. They would
invite girls and put drugs in their drinks. Everybody knew they were creeps." Casablancas was a
professional rival who was pushed out of his agency for questionable concerns.
Katie Ford human trafficking abolitionist and Eileen Ford's daughter, talked to the Wall Street
Journalmagazine. In that story "A Model Trade Union," Ford describes herself as a "roving
ambassador" to help stop human trafficking. Ford sold her stake in the family business in 2007 to
the private equity firm Stone Tower Equity. "In her new life as a nearly full-time, unpaid, roving
ambassador for the cause her job is an outgrowth of her former work, rather than a repudiation of
it. or an atonement.
Her interest in human trafficking began when a representative of the United Nations called to ask
if she would participate in a women's leadership group that was studying the issue of trafficking.
"I said, 'I can't come talk about it, because I don't know anything about it!'" Ford recalls. "But I
went, and after two hours, I knew why I was there. The way people traffic across borders is
parallel to the way we recruit models. According to Ford "the target age is 14 to 24, and so it's
41
EFTA00599899
similar to modeling." I knew how to reach that market" she said. "It was the feeling of: There but
for the grace of God... The girls who came to us could have been those girls."

Jeffrey Epstein doesn't want to be branded as a "sex
offender" for life, and no, he's not a modeling agency secret
sugar daddy (or so its owners say)
Posted by WSF On October - 9 - 2007
Jeffrey Epstein, the billionaire money manager
agreed to plead guilty to soliciting
underaged hookers and go away for 18 months, doesn't want to be branded a "sex offender" for
life. Page Six says his lawyers are thinking about asking prosecutors to drop that requirement
from his plea agreement
In a letter drafted, but not sent, to M.
Attorney Alexander Costa and obtained by Page Six, Epstein's lawyer, Gerald
Lefcourt, writes, "Doing so will have a profound impact [on Epstein] both
immediately and forever after. Not only will he be restricted to a wholly
inappropriate penal facility, but he will be required for the rest of his life
to account for his whereabouts."
Meanwhile over the weekend Page Six said that owners of MC2 modeling, run by Jean-Luc
Brunel — l=
also been accused of favoring underaged models in the past — claim that
Epstein is not the secret deep pockets behind the firm, no matter what others say or speculate.
43
EFTA00599901
Epstein, .....reportedly gave
"millions" to start MC2, which opened in October 2005 with offices in
New York. Miami and Tel Aviv. One of the girls Epstein, 54, was accused of
soliciting massages from was described in court documents as being just 14.
"E equals MC squared . . . get it,
like the equation? E equals Epstein. He just thinks everyone is too dumb to
figure it out," said a model industry insider. "He's a desperate old
man that fantasizes and takes advantage of young girls."
"Jeffrey Epstein has no ownership or involvement in our company and never has. Jean-Luc
Brunel and I are the only two partners and owners of MC2 Model Management," [Jeffrey] Fuller
said. [MC2 President]

The Volokh Conspiracy
Eleventh Circuit rules that discovery can
move forward on my Crime Victims' Rights
Act case
By Paul Cassell April 21
On Friday,the I 1th Circuit ruled that discovery can move forward in an important Crime
Victims' Rights Act case that my co-counsel, Brad Edwards. and I are pursuing. The narrow
issue before the court was whether prosecutors and defense attorneys could assert some sort of
"privilege' to prevent crime victims from reviewing the correspondence that lead to a plea
bargain. More broadly, the ruling means that the victims will have a chance to return to the
district court and seek to invalidate a plea agreement that (we alleged) was consummated in
violation of their rights. I hope that the case will ultimately set an important precedent that
federal prosecutors can't keep victims in the dark about the plea deals that they reach.
I lere arc the important facts, taken from the 1 1 th
opinion: The case arose in 2006, the
FBI began investigating allegations that wealth Investor Jeffrey Epstein had sexually abused
dozens and dozens of minor girls. The M.
Office for the Southern District of Florida
accepted Epstein's case for prosecution, and the FBI issued victim notification letters to my two
clients. minors Jane Doc No. I and Jane Doe No. 2, in June and August 2007. Extensive plea
negotiations ensued between the prosecutors and Epstein. On Sept. 24, 2007, the prosecutors
entered into a non-prosecution agreement with Epstein in which they agreed not to file any
federal charges against Epstein in exchange for his guilty plea to minor Florida offenses (e.g.,
solicitation of prostitution). Not only did the prosecutors neglect to confer with the victims
before they entered into the agreement with Epstein, they also concealed its existence for at least
nine months. For example, the prosecutors sent post-agreement letters to the victims reporting
that the "case is currently under investigation" and explaining that "[t)his can be a lengthy
process and we request your continued patience while we conduct a thorough investigation.-
On June 27, 2008. the prosecutors informed my co-counsel, Brad Edwards, that Epstein planned
to plead guilty to the Florida charges three days later. But the prosecutors failed to disclose that
Epstein's pleas to those state charges arose from his federal non-prosecution agreement and that
the pleas would bar a federal prosecution. As a result, the victims did not attend the state court
proceedings.
45
EFTA00599903
On July 7, 2008. Edwards and I filed a petition alleging that Jane Doc No. I was a victim of
federal sex crimes committed by Epstein and that the United States had wrongfully excluded her
from plea negotiations. We also alleged that the federal prosecutors had violated her rights under
the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) — specifically her rights to confer with the government,
to be treated with fairness, to receive timely notice of relevant court proceedings, and to receive
information about restitution. The United States responded by claiming that it used its "best
efforts" to comply with the rights afforded to victims under the CVRA, but that the act did not
apply to pre-indictment negotiations with potential federal defendants.
After Jane Doe No. 2 joined the initial petition, the district court (Marra, J.) found that both
w
qualified as "crime victims" under the CVRA. The district court later rejected the
argument that the act only applies after the filing of a federal criminal
indictment. (I've written a law review article about the issue of how early crime victims' rights
attach in the criminal process. which can be downloaded here.)
Among other relief, we sought rescission of the non-prosecution agreement as a remedy for the
violation of the victims' rights.
make the case for such a remedy, we moved for discovery of
the correspondence between the M. and Epstein's attorneys during the plea negotiations.
Epstein's attorneys intervened, arguing that Federal Rule of Evidence 410 and Federal Rule of
Criminal Procedure I I create a privilege for plea negotiations, barring release of the
correspondence. They also argued that the court should find that the materials were protected
under the work product doctrine or, alternatively, should be protected under a new "common-
law privilege for plea negotiations."
The district court first ruled that rescission of the plea inTeelllelli was a possible remed% under
the act. The court then ruled that we were entitled to review the correspondence, rejecting all of
Epstein's arguments.
On Friday. the 11th Circuit affirmed the district
ruline, that we could rthie‘A the plea
correspondence. At pp. 18-22 of its published opinion. the court concluded that there was no
basis for restricting access to such correspondence when crime victims have a legitimate need to
review it. The court rejected. for example, the work product argument because plea discussions
are not confidential:
Disclosure of work-product materials to an adversary• waives the work-product privilege. See.
e.g., In re Chrysler Motors Corp. Overnight Evaluation Program Litig.. 86012.2d 844, 846 (8th
Cir. 1988); In re Doe, 662 F.2d 1073. 1081-82 (4th Cir. 1981). Even if it shared the common
goal of reaching a quick settlement, the United States was undoubtedly adverse to Epstein during
its investigation of him for federal offenses, and the intervenors' disclosure of their work product
waived any claim of privilege. ...
The court also declined to recognize a new privilege for plea bargaining, finding the relationship
between prosecutors and defense attorneys did not need special protection:
As a last-ditch effort, the intervenors contend that "[i]f more is needed in addition to the plain
language of Rule 410 to preclude disclosure of the correspondence to plaintiffs, it can be found
46
EFTA00599904
in the conjunction of Rule 410, the work-product privilege, and the Sixth Amendment right to
the effective assistance of counsel in the plea bargaining process," but this novel argument fails
too. As explained above. Rule 410 does not create a privilege and the intervenors waived any
work-product privilege. The intervenors concede too that the right to counsel under the Sixth
Amendment had not yet attached when the correspondence was exchanged. Lumley v. City of
Dade City Fla., 327 F.3d 1186, 1195 (11th Cir. 2003) ("[T)he Sixth Amendment right to
counsel ordinarily does not arise until there is a formal commitment by the government to
prosecute," such as a "formal charge, preliminary hearing, indictment, information, or
arraignment."). The "conjunctive" power of three false claims of privilege does not rescue the
correspondence from disclosure. . . .
The Supreme Court has identified several considerations relevant to whether a court should
recognize an evidentiary privilege—the needs of the public, whether the privilege is rooted in the
imperative for confidence and trust, the evidentiary bit
of the denial of the privilege, and any
consensus among the states, Jaffee v. Redmond, 518
I. 10-15 (1996)—but none of these
considerations weighs in favor of recognizing a new privilege to prevent discovery of the plea
negotiations. Although plea negotiations are vital to the functioning of the criminal justice
system, a prosecutor and target of a criminal investigation do not enjoy a relationship of
confidence and trust when they negotiate. Their adversarial relationship. unlike the confidential
relationship of a doctor and patient or attorney and client, warrants no privilege beyond the terms
of Rule 410. See Jaffee, 518 M. at 10. But the victims would enjoy an evidentiary benefit from
the disclosure of plea negotiations to prove whether the United States violated their rights under
the Act.
Moving forward, this case raises the important issue of what kinds of remedies are available for
violations of the Crime Victims' Rights Act. Our complaint alleges that, prodded by Epstein. the
federal prosecutors deliberately concealed the sweetheart plea deal they had reached with him to
avoid public criticism of the deal. I am hopeful that in future district court proceedings. we will
be able to prove that clear violation of the CVRA and then obtain the remedy of invalidating the
illegally-negotiated plea deal.

Dear JeanLuc,
Unfortunately I need to announce that Liza Zazdravnih rejected signing the contract with MC2 in United
Sates. Initially she intended to sign the contract, but later on she came across that article in intemet about
you involved in illegal activities with young models. This information somehow changed her intentions
completely. she is ready to be a model and consider contracts with other agencies, but she has
suspicions that you will force her to illegal activities and she made the decision to don't put her self in risk.
Lets keep in touch. I will be happy to work with you next time if we have another right model for you. Im
upset that it didn't work out with Liza
Sincerely,

Dear Jean Luc,
I'm very happy to hear you're coming to the agency with Vini so we can talk about us working
with MC2 again.
I don't need to remind you that the sex trafficking allegations have stopped us from working with
your agency for the past 5-6 years — but as Vinicius is my friend, I will try to find a girl that
already knows and trusts him to place with you.
Thank you very much for the lovely bag and we'll see each other on fashion week.

Jean Luc,
How are you?
After so many years scouting for you and having a great network of agencies all around the world who
enjoy to work with us, i wanted tc let you know that we are on the way to lose everything we build and we
are gonna have big problem now.
Agencies, still want to work with us but parents don't want their daughters to come to us. because when
they google your name and the agency name the only things they see is "Sex Trafficking"!!!
It's impossible to sign a new girl and if nothing it's done i can tell you that in 3 months we we will not get
any new girls and i don't see how the agency will work without new faces.
All the agencies who know you don't have any problems with ycu since they all told me "We know Jean
Luc for more than 20 years and ail those years we had so many girls place with him who had better
experience than in any other agencies who were representing them as well and we never had any
problems whatsoever, all our girls had great carriers as a model when he representea them".
I understand those agencies because it's hard for them to talk to parents and explain that it's not the truth
when it's all over the internet.
You need lo have it stop and have the people write an official letter to say that it's not the truth ..
I will keep you posted of course but it's really bad for us and the scouting.
Best regards

tgont &WW2 Center
75 Lower Welden Street
St. Albans, VT 05479.0001
RS: O-1 Non-immigrant Visa Petition on behalf of Jean Luc Brunel
Dear Sir or Madam
It is an CittitMt pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Mr. Jean
Luc Brunel. I provide this recommendation based on my know•ledgr and
experience in the field of modeling, due to my established reputation and
watt in the field as the Vladimir Yudashkin. director of 1 Mother Agency.
Kiev. Ukraine
I have known Jean Luc Brunel proiessionutly for rieveral years through
our work together and, in my opinion, he is an extrfrmely talented
individual with superb professional reputation. He is an!extracirdinwily
able coordinator who strives for and attains a level of merit in his work
that only a few of his contemporaries meet. He has the abilat} to
recognise the creative vision of his client within the tune and budget
through his careful and thoughtful choice of model casting combined
with his meticulous ability in the field. Jean Luc Brunel is a true find in
our industry.
There are plenty of ar directors out there, but none with the depth and
quality that Mr. Brunei possesses He is unlike anyone in this industry.
and I expect to see him continue to find great modes in his successful
career. Someone overflowing with talent as Jean Luc Brunel should be
given every opportunity to work in the United States. where he will have
the proper venues to showcase his extraordinary talents.
Please do not hesitate tic, contact me should you hAve any questions
regarding this matter. Thank you for riiur time and efinsideration
Sincerely,
Vladimir Yudash

RE- O-1 Non-immigrant Visa Petition on behalf of Jean Luz. Brunel
Dear Sir or Madam
It is an extreme pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Mr. Jean
Luc Unmet. 1 provide this recommendation based on my knowledge and
experience in the field of modeling, due to my established reputation and
work In the field as the Vladimir Yuctashkin. director of 1 Mother Agency.
Kiev. Ukraine
have known Jean Luc Brunel p:olesunnially for several, years through
our work together and, an my opinion, he is an extremely talented
individual with superb professional reputation. He is art lexiraordinanly
able coordinator who strives be and attains a level of merit in his work
that only a few of his contemporaries meet. He has the abibty to
recognise the creative vision of h:s client within the Ulm and budget
through his careful and thoughtful choice of model casting combined
with his meticulous ability in the field. Jean Luc Brunel a a true find in
our industry.
There are plenty of ar directors out there. but none with the depth and
quality that Mr Brunei possesses He is unlike anyone in this industry,
and I expect to see him continue to find great models in his successful
career. Someone overflowing with talent as Jean lair Brunel should be
given every opportunity to work in the United States where he will have
the proper venues
showcase his extraordinary talents.
Please do not hesitate to contact mr should you have any questions
regarding this matter Thank you tor rum lime and consideration
Sincerely,
Vladimir Yudash

Original message —
Jean Luc,
I am really sorry you feel so bad and I know it has been a mental and psychological frustration. As you
know I chose to partner with you due to your reputation in the business for being a top scout and
developing a couple world class agencies in the past. I knew what you could bring and I knew what I
could bring and contribute and I thought it would be a great partnership. Clearly, I never expected to
have the level of challenges we have had recruiting new models over the last several years. I could have
never foreseen the problem of your friendship with Jeffrey Epstein turning into the situation it has
where you are seen as guilty by association when you have never done anything or even been convicted
of a crime. Frankly, I don't understand the necessity for
or anyone else to continue to
defame your name and MC2 by association.
It is true that we constantly have to justify ourselves when recruiting new models. The industry is
extremely competitive and as a parent myself if faced by the same information and having to make a
tough decision between too agencies I would not pick MC2 if I saw the article online about you. You
have to read closely to see there is not a charge against you but the implication is strong and of course
now days everyone believes everything they read online even more than the traditional newspapers of
the past.
I know you are now feeling like a liability to MC2. But you personally are not a liability to MC2 but this
published information online is a liability. We are not a large enough company, nor do we have the
capacity to fight this on a global level. On a google search in America we have put enough information
online to not have it popping up so blatantly but we have no controls over the rest of the world or the
finances to control this situation and we are affected as every major model agency recruits it's best
models from all the various countries abroad. This has stunted our growth and our billing over the past
6 or 7 years. In fact, we do not even know who avoids us based on finding this information. I have been
surprised how challenging it is for us to grow due to this problem.
I have also had a tremendous amount of worries from our clients that we are vendors for that are large
American corporations likes Kohls, JC Penney, Sears, Nordstrom, Target, Neiman Marcus, Macys, Saks,
Belk, and so forth that require vendor agreements and for us to be considered an upstanding
company. It really worries me as some of those companies have disassociated themselves from what
EXHIBIT K
EFTA00599966
they believe to be questionable companies. So far that has not been a problem but it could come up in
the future.
The fact that you are requested for so many scouting events in various countries and cannot promote
yourself properly to promote MC2 in the press due this problem has it's own sent of repercussions in
terms of our global branding. In short, it has had a terrible effect on MC2 all around. I really urge you
to solve this problem and get this removed from the internet so we can grow for the future. I've fought
for MC2 and been extremely loyal but I must confess that I have even been feeling inadequate and
questioning my ability as the leader of the organization. I can only attribute the fact that we have
scraped by in the recession and barely survived in the past to your hard work, my hard work, and the
tenacity of both of us combined.
I can only imagine that if I am feeling inadequate and frustrated over a lack of growth of our company
that you must feel even worse as you have had much greater success in your career and have operated
at much higher standards in our industry in all areas from reputation, respect, admiration and monetary
gains. I can even surmise you are probably feeling a level of depression and I have seen it in your highs
and lows and when you have voiced your frustration. While I know you well and recognize you don't
really go for the kind of advice I will offer; however, I think you should at least speak to someone neutral
such as a therapist or a counselor to let your frustrations out and if you don't feel better and are still
feeling down or depressed to see a medical doctor for your condition. You are such a positive person I
hate to see you fighting what you feel is a hopeless battle. It is not hopeless you just need find a way to
get that information offline and be in to repair your reputation. In the end I am afraid the damages are
a lot more than you realize but
keep fighting and moving forward as we have no choke.
Thanks,
Jeff

Woman who sued convicted billionaire over
sex abuse levels claims at his friends
By JOSH GERSTEIN I
12/31/14 6:38 PM EST
A woman allegedly kept as a sex slave by politically-connected billionaire investor Jeffrey
Epstein, who went to jail for having sex with underaged girls, is accusing several prominent
friends of the financier of having taken part in the debauchery, according to a new court filing.
The woman—referred to in court papers as Jane Doe #3—leveled the allegations Tuesday
against Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz and Britain's Prince Andrew, as well as
British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell and French model scout Jean Luc Brunel.
Dershowitz flatly denied the claims about him Wednesday in an interview with POLITICO.
"It's totally, unequivocally and completely false." the celebrated attorney said.
A spokesman for Prince Andrew denied the allegations Friday, while a lawyer who handled
related matters for Maxwell did not respond to an e-mail seeking comment. Representatives of
Bruncl's modeling firm also did not reply to e-mail messages.
The accusations came in a long-running lawsuit charging federal prosecutors in Florida with
violating a victims-rights law by failing to consult with Epstein's victims before signing off on a
plea deal. That pact ruled out any federal prosecution of the investor, who agreed to plead guilty
to two state prostitution-related felony charges. Lawyers for the victims have described the
arrangement as a sweetheart deal the well-connected Epstein and his high-powered legal team
achieved by putting pressure on prosecutors.
Epstein served 13 months of an I8-month sentence on the two state charges before being
released in 2009. He's now a registered sex offender.
The new court filing, submitted by Florida lawyer Brad Edwards and former federal judge Paul
Cassell in a federal court in West Palm Beach. Fla., asked that Jane Doe #3 and another woman
be allowed to join the pending case over the victims' rights claim.
"Epstein...trafficked Jane Doe #3 for sexual purposes to many other powerful men, including
numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a
well-known Prime Minister, and other world leaders. Epstein required Jane Doe #3 to describe
EXHIBIT R
EFTA00599979
the events that she had with these men so that he could potentially blackmail them." the court
filing said.
"One such powerful individual that Epstein forced then-minor Jane Doe #3 to have sexual
relations with was former Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz, a close friend of Epstein's
and well-known criminal defense attorney. Epstein required Jane Doe #3 to have sexual relations
with Dershowitz on numerous occasions while she was a minor, not only in Florida but also on
private planes, in New York, New Mexico. and the ■. Virgin Islands," the legal pleading
added.
Dershowitz called the allegations "totally made up and totally fabricated from beginning to end."
He said he was not in the places described in the filing at the relevant times, with one exception:
he did visit Epstein's private island in the Caribbean on one occasion.
"I was there with my family," the renowned law professor said.
Dershowitz said in a follow-up interview after this post first appeared Wednesday that he's
planning to file bar complaints against Edwards and Cassell for inadequately vetting their client's
story.
"I'm planning to file disbarment charges against the two lawyers who signed this petition without
even checking the manifests of airplanes or travel itineraries, et cetera," he said. "I'm also
challenging the young woman and the lawyers to level those charges against inc outside of the
courtroom. so that I can sue them for defamation
Finally. I'm challenging the woman to file
criminal charges against me because the filing of false criminal charges is a crime."
The motion accuses Prince Andrew of similar actions, asserting that "Jane Doe #3 was forced to
have sexual relations with this Prince when she was a minor in three separate geographical
locations: in London (at Ghislaine Maxwell's apartment), in New York. and on Epstein's private
island in the U.S. Virgin Islands (in an orgy with numerous other under-aged girls)."
Previous press accounts have reported on Prince Andrew's friendship with Epstein, who was
known as a philanthropist and supporter of scientific research before the criminal investigations
began nearly a decade ago. However, the earlier accounts stopped short of accusing the prince of
sexual involvement with girls Epstein procured. In a 2011 Vanity Fair story•, Prince Andrew
denied any such contact.
While a Buckingham Palace spokesman did not respond to POLITICO's query about the matter
on Wednesday, the palace issued a denial to several British news outlets Friday. "This relates to
long-standing and ongoing civil proceedings in the United States, to which The Duke of York is
not a party. As such we would not comment on the detail. However, for the avoidance of doubt,
any suggestion of impropriety with underage minors is categorically untrue," the statement said.
Prosecutors said in a 2007 draft letter they'd identified 40 young women who could be
considered victims of Epstein's illegal acts. Many of them filed lawsuits or claims against
Epstein and reached out-of-court settlements for amounts that were not disclosed.
EXHIBIT R
EFTA00599980
While "Jane Doc #3" is unidentified in this
court filing, her story appears to track with
that of a woman who stied Epstein in 2009 and settled with him later that year. She apparently
granted an on-the-record interview to
Daily Mail in 2011.
Some of the fascination with Epstein on the part of tabloids and glossy magazines stems from his
ties to former President Bill Clinton. In 2002, Epstein provided his 727 to Clinton for a trip to
Africa to study anti-AIDS programs. Celebrities such as Chris Tucker and Kevin Spacey came
along for the ride. The new court filing makes no mention of Clinton. Tucker or Spaccy.
The federal investigation obtained manifests for Epstein's private jet travel, but prosecutors
never charged anyone besides the investor with involvement in obtaining or using underaged
girls for sexual purposes.
The new court filing says this result is in part due to the fact that Epstein's legal team—which
included such heavyweights as former independent counsel and solicitor general Ken Starr, trial
lawyer Roy Black, and Dershowitz—negotiated a deal that precluded the feds charging anyone
as a co-conspirator.
Lawyers for Jane Doe #3 argue in the new motion that Dershowitz put this language in the
agreement to protect himself.
However, the law professor told POLITICO he didn't negotiate that deal and it wasn't aimed at
protecting him. "I had nothing to do with drafting the non-prosecution agreement," he said.
Dershowitz added that the last draft of the agreement mentioned four people by name who
wouldn't be prosecuted and he was not among them. All were regular associates or assistants of
Epstein, the lawyer said, adding that the final language removed those names and simply barred
federal prosecutors in South Florida from going after any potential co-conspirators.
Epstein and his lawyers fought hard to prevent records about his plea negotiations from being
turned over to victims' attorneys. I lowever, M. District Court Judge Keith Marra ruled last year
that the victims arc entitled to examine those records to prepare their case against the
government.
Epstein, Black and others appealed that decision to the Atlanta-based I I th Circuit Court of
Appeals. but it ruled in April of this year that no privilege protects plea negotiations in this sort
of dispute.
Edwards and Cassell did not respond to requests for comment for this post, including an inquiry
about their response to Dershowitz's comments. However, the pair appear to be pressing forward
with the victims' rights lawsuit, which seeks to unravel the no-federal-prosecution deal cut for
Epstein in 2007.
UPDATE (Wednesday, 7:18 P.M.): This post has been updated with further comment.from
Dershowitz.
