He is linked with Prince Andrew, Clinton and Trump (go figure!). What I found interesting is how he managed to allegedly "steal" roughly 46 billion USD while managing Wexner's (the billionaire who owns Victoria Secret and Bed, Bath and Bodyworks) finances. So says Wexner two days ago:

Re: Jeffrey Epstein found dead in Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center

This is much better than Russia Gate.
At least there is some substantial and plausible evidence there and the number target(s) are likely to multiply exponentially, dragging in all sorts from the elite classes. The fact that Epstein is gone is not going to quieten the thing down. On the contrary, without him to defend himself and with the prospect of compensation/damages from his estate, many more hitherto unknown accusers are going to present themselves with lurid tales involving the Epstein "circle". Not to mention all the scope for conspiracy theories surrounding his death. If this whole affair was allowed to flare up (it was apparently kept long and successfully under close wraps involving special judicial deals) to damage Trump (a one-time Epstein "associate"), there will be a huge amount of collateral damage as the thing spins out of control. Beautiful.

Yep! It`s gonna be popcorn time. But it will die down and nobody will be taken into account, at least nobody powerful, the rumors and speculations will persist and get stranger and further from the truth until the great unwashed get bored and look elsewhere for their entertainment leaving the rich and powerful, rich and powerful.

Meanwhile the US President and leader of the free world is spreading conspiracy theories by retweeting.

Presumably one of the Clintons will shortly be tweeting "@Jeffery(sic)Epstein had information on Donald Trump & now he's dead". Stones and glasshouses...

I wonder who made that decision. Especially after the first suicide attempt.

Common internet speculation for weeks was that he would end up dead before any trial. Of course, no one could have foreseen it actually happening though.
Money!

A) His victims and
B) All the rich people he hung out with that participated in his "parties" who might also be implicated in illegal activities

No one likes to go to jail, but rich and powerful people especially don't.

Why does a guy who allegedly is a billionaire and owns private islands need to steal 46 Mil? Sounds like a weird attempt to try to distance himself from Epstein.

The best part of the story is in my eyes that Trump apparently threw him out of his golf club because he behaved badly towards female guests. I have to say that if "grab them by the pussy" thinks you should treat women better… he might be right for a change.

I could have things mixed up, but I believe the 46 million or so he misappropriated was what helped him to get towards his billions. He didn't start off as a billionaire, he was managing the finances of a billionaire who apparently didn't notice the odd 40+ million disappearing.

Not hookers. Children who found themselves forced to have sex with rich scum bags.

Maybe Epstein is a nobody in your view, but his connections to two presidents, a bunch of rich and famous people, and some royals - particularly if laws were broken and children were trafficked - are newsworthy to some.
