FBI Claims Epstein Wasn’t Running Sex Trafficking Ring Amidst Public Skepticism
Despite extensive investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s finances and interviews with numerous victims, federal prosecutors found scant evidence that he operated a sex trafficking ring serving powerful men. While investigators collected ample proof of Epstein’s sexual abuse of underage girls, seized videos and photos did not depict abuse or implicate others, and financial records showed no connection to criminal activity by associates. Despite public claims, agents could not confirm accusations that Epstein “lent” victims to wealthy friends, and other victims did not corroborate similar stories.
