The Cops
Michele Pagan is now a sergeant for the Palm Beach Police
Department.
In early 2012, at a reception at Mar-a-Lago, Detective Joe
Recarey received the first Palm Beach Police Foundation Police
Officer of the Year award— one of several honors he received in
the course of his twenty-three-year career in Palm Beach. Two
years later, he left the department and took a job as director of
loss prevention for the Gold Coast Beverage company.
“lye been [at the Palm Beach Police Department] longer than
my children have been alive,” he told a reporter for the Palm
Beach Daily News when he left. “I’m going to miss a majority of
the people I’ve worked with, and, obviously, I'm going to miss
the work. This is my extended family. Like many families, you
have disagreements with some family members. But you over-
look that, and you work together and you're a team. I'm going to
look back and miss a lot of the people I've worked with.”
Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter left the department in
2008 after twenty-eight years on the job. He now runs his own
security company in Palm Beach.
Jean-Luc Brunel
In January of 2015, Jean-Luc Brunel sued his old friend Jeffrey
Epstein, claiming that Epstein’s fall from grace had cost him mil-

Kellen might have gone along with that. But in the end she
didn’t need to. Sources say she found another rich man as Epstein
whiled away his hours in and out of the Palm Beach Stockade.
She reinvented herself, and when her relationship with the
wealthy man fell apart, she played the field until she met and
married a race-car driver named Brian Vickers. Along the way
she reinvented herself yet again, changing her name to Sarah
Kensington.
Nadia Marcinkova
Nadia Marcinkova changed her surname to Marcinko and, after
training at a Palm Beach flight school, became a commercial
pilot and certified flight instructor. Calling herself Gulfstream
Girl on Facebook, she cultivated her social media presence until
2013, when the Gulistream company filed a trademark infringe-
ment lawsuit against her. When the suit was settled out of court,
in 2014, Marcinko changed “Gulfstream” to “Global.”
“As a child.” she wrote for the “About Me” page on her web-
site, “Nadia channeled her entrepreneurial spirit by selling invi-
sible pets to neighboring kids. She continued on to manage a
successful family marketing business and soon she was disco-
vered by a modeling agency and immersed into the marketing
and advertising world as a spokesperson and international fash-
ion model.”
There is no mention of Jeffrey Epstein. But on her YouTube
channel, Marcinko appears in the cockpit of a Gulfstream II that 4

More than a decade had passed since Epstein’s case first
landed on the state attorney’s desk.
“The New York Times has called me,” said Krischer. “The
British papers. I'm not interested in being pulled into that con-
versation. I know that the police chief didn’t think the case was
handled right, but that’s why he’s a cop and I’m a prosecutor.”
Krischer, who left the state attorney's office in 2009, is stilla
member of the Criminal Justice Commission in Palm Beach
County. Since his retirement, he’s volunteered one morning a
week at the office of the state attorney and two mornings a week
at the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
He still remains active in child welfare issues, working with
the Florida Department of Children and Families.
Despite his continued involvement with local law entorce-
ment, he hasn’t spoken to Michael Reiter in yeats.
Bradley Edwards
In December of 2009, Jeffrey Epstein filed suit, under Florida’s
RICO act, against Scott Rothstein, the jailed Ponzi king; Bradley
Edwards, the lawyer who'd worked, briefly, in Rothstein's law

JaMes PATTERSON
Prince Andrew had long since sold the home, which he and
Sarah had received as a gift after their 1986 wedding. He got into
hot water when it was revealed that the buyer, a Kazakh billion-
aire named Timur Kulibayev, had paid three million pounds
more than the home’s asking price.
For her part, Sarah Ferguson announced that she was mov-
ing into a thirteen-million-pound ski chalet in Switzerland.
It was a fitting end to the long, sometimes sordid story of the
prince’s marriage. But it was not the end of the scandals that
seemed always to be swirling around the prince.
On January 2, 2015, Virginia Roberts's allegations about her
relationship with the prince—and the photo of him with his
arm around Roberts's waist—appeared in the press. Prince
Andrew was forced to cut short a skiing holiday to confer with
his mother, the queen, and to issue a statement denying Rob-
erts’s allegations —a step that was widely seen as being without
precedent for a member of the royal family.
That same month, at the World Economic Forum in Davos,
Switzerland, the prince was again forced to “reiterate and to reai-
firm” the repeated denials made by Buckingham Palace that he
had any sort of sexual relationship with Roberts, who had
announced in papers filed at the start of the year that Prince
Andrew has a “sexual interest in feet.”
“My focus is on my work,” Prince Andrew said at the time. ~
Asked by a reporter, “Will you be making a statement?” the
prince refused to answer.

against Dershowitz. ,
For Alan Dershowitz, the long nightmare he’d had to endure asa
result of his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein finally seemed to be over.
Ghislaine Maxwell
Trying to put her troubles with Epstein behind her, Ghislaine
Maxwell took up a new calling.
“She’s doing something to save the oceans now,’ a socialite says
over the din of cocktail-party chatter at a private Palm Beach Club,
Maxwell's nonprofit, the TerraMar Project, describes itself as
“a platform for citizenship and transformation of the high seas.”
Its focus is on cleaning up the eight million metric tons of plastic
debris—garbage—that are dumped into the world’s oceans
each year. (Sources say that an earlier enterprise, the Seed Media
Group, was funded by Jeffrey Epstein in 2005 to the tune of two
million dollars.)
“Is anybody here staying awake at night because they're
frightened about the ocean?” she asks in 2014 at a TEDx talk in
Charlottesville, Virginia. “Are you scared about what could hap-
pen? Are you trying to think about what could you do that would
help the ocean and all its myriad of troubles?”
But although her efforts on behalf of the environment are sin-
cere and articulate, Ghislaine still appears in the society pages.
In 2010, she attends Chelsea Clinton's icine in Rhine- a
beck, New York.
In 2014, New York journalist Richard Johnson reports that

and his own wife, Kimmie, who was arrested for hiding more
than one million dollars’ worth of jewelry.
All in all, more than thirty people involved in Rothstein's
schemes were arrested and sentenced.
Thanks, in part, to his cooperation with the feds, his was the
only Ponzi scheme in history in which all the victims recovered
their money. In return, Rothstein was put into a witness protec-
tion program and is serving his fifty-year sentence anonymously,
in an undisclosed prison location.
Alan Dershowitz
On November 10, 2015, Alan Dershowitz arrived at Shriver Hall,
on the campus of Johns Hopkins University, im Baltimore, to talk
about the Arab-Israeli conflict.
“The outlines for peace are so obvious,” he said. “There has
to be a two-state solution.”
Fifteen minutes into the talk, a group of women—students
belonging to a group called Hopkins Feminists—stood up in
protest. Dressed all in black, with duct tape over their mouths,
they held up a sign and marched out of the hall.
YOU ARE RAPE CULTURE, the sign read.
Afterward, a reporter for the student paper asked Dershowitz
about Jeffrey Epstein and Epstein’s victims. Wasn't it true that Der
showitz had implied that one of those victims was “asking for it?”
“Tm a defense attorney,” Dershowitz replied. “I have an obliga-

All these possibilities seemed bizarre. And yet everything
CE
connected with Epstein’s story seemed to be bizarre.
Bill Clinton got the use of a jet out of Epstein—a trip to
Africa. But he and Epstein weren't bosom buddies.
As for Prince Andrew, we already know how he feels about
women.
But what did Dershowitz get out of Epstein, aside from
Epstein’s wise counsel on all the books he'd written?
One advantage Dershowitz had, as he laid out his argument,
was that when it came to Jeffrey Epstein, all bets were off. He
didn’t have to establish his innocence. All he had to do was make ]
sure that the waters stayed muddy. The more complicated things ;
seemed to be, the better they were for Dershowitz. a

Association. By all outward appearances, he could afford it: sev-
enty lawyers worked in his firm, which had offices in Florida,
New York, and Venezuela. But Rothstein's millions actually
came from a $1.2 billion Ponzi scheme he’d been running since
2005.
In April of 2009, Bradley Edwards joined Rothstein's firm.
The lawyer brought his papers along, and Rothstein showed
those pertaining to Epstein to potential investors. In exchange
for a lump sum up front, Rothstein said, investors would receive
a far larger chunk of money later, which Epstein would pay in
future settlements.
Edwards and Rothstein both say that Edwards had no knowl-
edge whatsoever of the Ponzi scheme. (Prosecutors, and the
Florida Bar, agree.) Edwards left as soon as he caught wind of the
scheme, in November of 2009. But the few months he spent in
Rothstein’s company gave Dershowitz the opening he needed to
pry open Virginia Roberts's accusations.
It was at Edwards’s insistence, Dershowitz would say, as well
as Paul Cassell’s, that Virginia Roberts added Dershowitz's name
to the list of men she claimed had abused her.
According to Dershowitz, he'd been pulled into a billion-dollar
extortion plot Edwards had hatched. And for Edwards and Cas-
sell, there had been a secondary benefit: Dershowitz had helped
to work out Epstein’s confidential non-prosecution agreement
with the government. By implicating him directly in Epsteins
abuse of underage women, Dershowitz claimed, Edwards and ~

to get massive publicity around the world. And every media
in the world, practically, called me, from the BBC to CBS to
ABC to CNN, and I responded to lies with the truth.

that he was a professor and that he was using — improperly,
in my view—the stationery and name of his university to

me to indicate that he was engaging in impropet and unethi-

allowed his use of his credibility as a former federal judge, as
a professor who uses, misuses, his university imprimatur —
it was very important for me to attack the credibility of the

“Pm thrilled they sued me,” he'd told reporters. “In the end,
someone will be disbarred. Either it will be me or the two
lawyers.”
But if Dershowitz was swinging for the fences in his struggle
to keep his hard-earned reputation afloat, he still had a bomb-
shell to drop. When deposed by Scarola, he proposed his own
theory about why Virginia Roberts had named him, along with
Prince Andrew, as one of the men who had sexually abused her
at Epstein’s New Mexico ranch, in New York City, and in Palm
Beach.
A theory that implicated the lawyers who were suing him ina
much larger conspiracy.
According to Dershowitz, Brad Edwards pressured Virginia
Roberts into identifying Dershowitz as one her assailants.
Dershowitz said that Edwards did this so that they could
blackmail Jeffrey Epstein’s patron Leslie Wexner for one billion
dollars.
Roberts lied about him, Dershowitz maintained, to give
Wexner an idea of what would happen to him if Edwards's
demands weren't met.
Furthermore, Dershowitz said, he had proof.

and would have shown how he could provide potential protec-
tion from Epstein. That never happened.
39. Getting a call from this supposed FBI agent made me
scared all over again. I had left the old life of sexual slavery
behind me and started a new life in a new country in hopes
that the powerful people whose illegal activities I knew all
about would never find me.
40. Shortly after this purported FBI call, I was contacted
by telephone by someone who appeared clearly to be working
for Epstein. The caller told me about an investigation into.
Epstein and said that some of the girls being questioned were
saying that Epstein had had sexual contact with them. After
they made these allegations, the man said they were being
discredited as drug addicts and prostitutes, but in my case, if
I were to keep quiet, I would “be looked after.” The fact that
this call was made shortly after the supposed FBI call rein-
for[cled my concern that the man I had talked to earlier was
not really working for the FBI but for Epstein. I didn’t think
that the FBI and Epstein would both be working together and
would both get my phone number at almost exactly the same
time. I played along and told this person that I had gotten a
call from the “FBI” but that I didn’t tell him anything. The
person on the phone was pleased to hear [that].
41. A short time later, one of Epstein’s lawyers (not Alan
Dershowitz) called me, and then got Epstein on the line at
the same time. Epstein and his law

this trip as well. I was supposed to interview a girl and bring
her back to the United States for Epstein.
31. [Left blank in the original]
32. I did the massage training in Chiang Mai. While I
was there, I met a great and special guy and told him hon-
estly what I was being forced to do. He told me I should get
out of it. I told him that the people I was working for were
very powerful and that I could not walk away or disobey
them without risking serious punishment, including my life.
He told me he would protect me. I had confidence [in] him
and I saw his love and help as my opportunity to escape and
to be with someone who truly loved me and would protect
me. I married him and flew to Australia.
33. I called Epstein and told him I was not coming back.
He asked why? I said “I’ve fallen in love.” Epstein basically
said “good luck and have a good life.” I could tell he was not
happy. I was afraid of what he was going to do to me. I
thought he or one of his powerful friends might send some-
one to hurt me or have me killed.
34, From that point onward, out of concern for my safety
and general well-being, I stayed in Australia with my hus-
band. I was in Australia from late 2002 to October 2013. To
be clear, I was never in the United States during these years,
not even for a short trip to visit my mother. And my absence
from the United States was not voluntary—I was hiding
from Epstein out of fear of what he would do to me if I
returned to the United States.

Seckel acquaintances, I kept hearing variations on a scheme Mrs.
Pearce Williams believed he perpetrated against her late hus-
band, the man Seckel said was his mentor. Seckel took books
and promised money, or he took money and promised a book;
but somehow, the promised party lost money.”
“He was charming, erudite, humorous,” one of Seckel’s marks
told the reporter. “I lent him $75,000. When the time came to
pay it back he didn’t want to do it.”
Oppenheimer found several people whom Seckel had stiffed
and uncovered dozens of lawsuits he’d been involved in. In 2007,
Seckel settled a libel lawsuit against a man who'd edited his Wiki-
pedia page. Years later, Oppenheimer spoke with Seckel’s lawyer,
Nicholas Hornberger.
“Hornberger confirmed that he'd reached a settlement for the
case, a favorable one,” the journalist wrote. “Hornberger added
that Seckel has still not paid him for his services.”
He also interviewed Seckel’s wife, Isabel Maxwell.
Al and Isabel met on a blind date and married in Malibu in or
“around” 2007 (“I don't keep the dates in my head,” Seckel
explained). A few years later, they moved to the South of France,
where Seckel continued to trade in rare books and papers. While 4
living in France, he was sued by a Virgin Islands company that 4
accused him and Isabel of fraudulently attempting to sell rare q
books and a seventeenth-century portrait of Isaac Newton.
Seckel had also been trying to sell papers belonging to Is@- :
bel’s father.

discuss cognitive neuroscience, artificial intelligence, systems of
encryption and decryption, and other topics.
Epstein had been hosting get-togethers like this for years.
Toward the end of Chief Reiter’s investigation, in March of 2006,
Epstein had hosted twenty top physicists—including three Nobel
Prize winners as well as the celebrity physicist Stephen Hawking —
at a Saint Thomas symposium called “Confronting Gravity,”
which was advertised as “a workshop to explore fundamental
questions in physics and cosmology.”
“This is a remarkable group,” one of the Nobel Prize winners
told a reporter for the St. Thomas Source.
“There is no agenda except fun and physics, and that’s fun
with a capital F,” Epstein said.
Epstein had been especially interested in Stephen Hawking.
Someday, Hawking had theorized, the universe would stop
expanding and collapse, at which point time would begin to run
backwards. Hawking believed that computer viruses were living
things. He thought that given the size of the universe, alien life
forms existed. He did not believe in God. But he had a vast appre-
ciation for the inner workings of the universe, and this is wir?
Epstein gave Hawking a tremendous gift. He paid to havea sub-

“Antisocial psychopaths don't have brakes at all.”
Dr. Salter has never met Epstein, but she’s followed his case
closely and finds him a familiar type. She’s especially struck by
the singular nature of the relationship between powerful, wealthy
men and vulnerable, underage women.
“(The men] are more impressive to a fourteen-year-old [girl]
than to, say, an adult young woman who is self-supporting and
feels more sure of herself,” she explains.
“They are attracted to what they call freshness — barely bud-
ding sexuality and lack of sexual experience. The difference
between them and their victims feeds their ego.
“Great wealth and access are generally factors that make men
feel they are entitled to whomever and whatever they want. Some
have narcissistic personalities with inflated self-images. And of
course, great wealth and status make such men think they can
get away with it. Too often, they're right.”
On the other hand, Dr. Salter believes that certain condi-
tions, such as the ones exhibited by Jeffrey Epstein, might be an
inborn character trait.
Personality can be influenced, sometimes quite heavily, by
genetics.
“Virtually no one believes anymore that humans are born a ©
totally blank slate,” she explains.
“We arrive with temperamental and personality variations —
that, of course, the environment can often, but not always, influ-
ence. We arrive with baggage.”
Is Epstein a born psychopath, then?

detachment from day-to-day concerns such as morality, ethics,
and appearances?
As for Jeffrey Epstein, one question that might be worth ask-
ing is, if he’s in fact a narcissist and megalomaniac, could he
actually believe that he’s innocent? Then again, that might be the
wrong question. Epstein did plead guilty, after all. But what if he
simply doesn’t see what he pleaded to as a crime? What if he’s
proud of his lifestyle? And if that’s the case, why wouldn't Prince
Andrew be proud to be seen in public with his dear friend Jetfrey
Epstein?
What if, for people like Epstein and the prince, it’s just ser-
vants and masters, the way of the world? They’re natural winners —
aristocrats, after all—and if life were fair, well, how would we
know who the real winners are?

questionable ties to Tunisian oligarchs, corrupt presidents of
former Soviet republics, and Mu’ammar Gadhafi, among other
entanglements, many of which were explored in a Vanity Fair
article headlined THE TROUBLE WITH ANDREW.
“The duke has a record of being loyal to his friends,” a “royal
source” told Vanity Fair's Edward Klein. “Take his feelings for
Sarah Ferguson. If you are a prince and you bring a woman into
the royal life and, for whatever reasons, she’s spit out, you might
have feelings of debt toward her. The duke feels that she’s been
spattered and rejected. His close relationship with the Duchess
of York is problematic, and there have been many problems over
the last 5 to 10 years, all of which stem from the duchess. Some
of the behavior of the duchess is inconsistent with being mar-
ried to, or an ex-wife of, the duke. There’s no question but that
Sarah’s been a financially self-destructive element in the-duke'’s
life.”
“The same kind of loyalty manifested itself last December,
when the duke visited Epstein at his home in New York,” said a
spokesperson for Buckingham Palace. “Epstein was a friend of
the duke’s for the best part of 20 years. It was the first time in
four years that he'd seen Epstein. He now recognizes that the q
meeting in December was unwise.” |

where “Andrew was pictured on a yacht surrounded by topless
women.”
According to Roberts's lawsuit, Epstein had forced her into
the prince’s bed on Little Saint Jeff's.
After Epstein’s conviction, the British press were using another
name for Little Saint Jeff’s: Sex Island. The Guardian reported
that the manager of two Virgin Islands—based corporations owned
by Epstein happened to be the wife of the governor of the Virgin
Islands. There were allegations involving a million-dollar dona-
tion that Epstein had made to the governor's reelection cam-
paign. And then there was Roberts's claim that she had been
forced to have sex with the prince on the island as well as in
New York and in London.
Invariably, the photograph of Prince Andrew with his arm
around the bare midriff of a very young-looking Virginia Rob-

“It ig emphatically denied that the Duke of York had any form 7
of sexual contact or relationship” with Roberts, Buckingham —

If some sort of criminal investigation had taken place, that
would have been one thing. But, at that time, no criminal
investigation into Epstein's affairs had been launched. And in
the absence of an investigation, the rumors of Epstein’s dealings
with very young women seemed to be just that—rumors.

they were nothing like the demons he’d heard about in church.
Noel had never forgotten the way those kids looked. The way
they'd turned into old men and old women. They were like zom-
bies trapped in children’s bodies. And now, in America, Noel's
been given a chance to help other kids.
That’s what the police have told him, at least.

concerned, he’s the perfect man for the job.

“We're here to see Jeff,” says Wendy.
The guard nods—of course you are—and leads them to the
side door.
They're in the kitchen now. Mary, Wendy, some middle-aged
man. The man has a long face, bushy eyebrows, and thick-silver
hair—and he’s fit. As fit as the jocks that Mary goes to school
with. Not attractive, exactly. He’s way too old for that. But confi-
dent, in a way that makes an impression.
Standing behind the man there's a woman. She’s blond, very
pretty, much taller than Wendy.
What a strange scene, Mary thinks. She can't shake the feeling
that the man is studying her. Then he nods, and he and Wendy
walk out of the kitchen. A little while later, they’re back.
“Sarah.” the man says to the tall woman. “You can take Mary
upstairs.”
Sarah takes Mary up a wide winding staircase carpeted in pink.
Together they walk down a hall that’s got photographs on the
wall_-naked women. Long curtains cover windows and don't
let in much light. In the air, there’s a strong lavender fragrance.
Then they come to a room containing a green-and-pink sofa.
There’s a large bathroom off to one side and doors on either side
of the sofa. There’s a wooden armoire with sex toys on it. There's
a massage table, too, and a mural of a naked woman.
«Wait here.” says Sarah. “Jeff will be up in a moment.”
Mary’s too freaked out to do anything else. Fidgeting with
her belt loops, she sits on the sofa, jumps up again.

making,* And it’s not like she’s running off to do something
crazy. After all, Wendy's assured her already that there’s nothing
to worry about.
Mary’s father is Cuban—an immigrant—a self-made man who
runs a contracting business. He’s wise to the ways of the world
and highly protective of his two daughters. They're good girls, he
knows. Almost angels. As far as he knows, they don’t drink.
They've never tried drugs. They love clothes and, especially,
music—Britney Spears, Nelly Furtado, Maroon 5, the boy band
with that dreamy lead singer. Mary loves California, which she's
never seen but daydreams about. She just knows she'll live there
someday—a plan that’s okay with her father as long as Mary
keeps up with her homework and chores.
What he worries about, in the meantime, is the crowd that
Mary runs with.
Joe is a fine boy. More responsible than most American boys
his age. But Joe’s cousin, Wendy, is another story. Mary’s father
doesn’t like Wendy at all and would have liked her even less had
he known about Wendy’s intentions.
In just one hour, Wendy’s told Mary, she can make more
money than her father makes in a day: “This guy in Palm Beach.
He’s rich. Very rich. He has an airplane. He owns an island, you
know?”
Like a lot of kids who live inland, away from the Florida
coast, Mary’s dreams reach way beyond the dull, scrubby flat-

come up, and Mary’s head drops dramatically in anticipation.
Then a loud, sexy throb spills out of the earbuds: Britney Spears.
The bass line takes over, and she starts to dance, moving her
hips as she lip-synchs the lyrics:
With a taste of a poison paradise...
Mary’s swept away by the song. She's twirling around and
around, flinging her arms out to grab the clothes hanging up in
her closet —it’s like embracing ten thousand fans! Then she stops
and pulls out the earbuds. Suddenly she’s become fourteen again.
Just a girl, jittery, nervous.
What she’s thinking about now is what she will wear to the
big fancy house.
Mary desperately wants to make an impression. This will be her
first trip to the house. She does not want to look like a child on
this outing.
She picks out a pair of skinny white jeans, puts on a freshly
washed halter top that leaves her flat stomach bare. The cross
that Joe gave her last Christmas hangs from her neck.
Think of the money, she thinks.
For Mary, it’s incredible money. Several weeks’ wages at
Mickey D’s. And just for giving some old man a massage? She
twists the earbuds back in, dives into the closet, sings along with
Britney Spears:
Don’t you know that you're toxic?
The tight white jeans fit Mary perfectly. She turns to check
herself out in the mirror, cropping the scene with her fingers to

“We're here to see Jeff,” says Wendy.
The guard nods—of course you are—and leads them to the
side door.
They're in the kitchen now. Mary, Wendy, some middle-aged
man. The man has a long face, bushy eyebrows, and thick-silver
hair—and he’s fit. As fit as the jocks that Mary goes to school
with. Not attractive, exactly. He’s way too old for that. But confi-
dent, in a way that makes an impression.
Standing behind the man there's a woman. She’s blond, very
pretty, much taller than Wendy.
What a strange scene, Mary thinks. She can't shake the feeling
that the man is studying her. Then he nods, and he and Wendy
walk out of the kitchen. A little while later, they’re back.
“Sarah.” the man says to the tall woman. “You can take Mary
upstairs.”
Sarah takes Mary up a wide winding staircase carpeted in pink.
Together they walk down a hall that’s got photographs on the
wall_-naked women. Long curtains cover windows and don't
let in much light. In the air, there’s a strong lavender fragrance.
Then they come to a room containing a green-and-pink sofa.
There’s a large bathroom off to one side and doors on either side
of the sofa. There’s a wooden armoire with sex toys on it. There's
a massage table, too, and a mural of a naked woman.
«Wait here.” says Sarah. “Jeff will be up in a moment.”
Mary’s too freaked out to do anything else. Fidgeting with
her belt loops, she sits on the sofa, jumps up again.

making,* And it’s not like she’s running off to do something
crazy. After all, Wendy's assured her already that there’s nothing
to worry about.
Mary’s father is Cuban—an immigrant—a self-made man who
runs a contracting business. He’s wise to the ways of the world
and highly protective of his two daughters. They're good girls, he
knows. Almost angels. As far as he knows, they don’t drink.
They've never tried drugs. They love clothes and, especially,
music—Britney Spears, Nelly Furtado, Maroon 5, the boy band
with that dreamy lead singer. Mary loves California, which she's
never seen but daydreams about. She just knows she'll live there
someday—a plan that’s okay with her father as long as Mary
keeps up with her homework and chores.
What he worries about, in the meantime, is the crowd that
Mary runs with.
Joe is a fine boy. More responsible than most American boys
his age. But Joe’s cousin, Wendy, is another story. Mary’s father
doesn’t like Wendy at all and would have liked her even less had
he known about Wendy’s intentions.
In just one hour, Wendy’s told Mary, she can make more
money than her father makes in a day: “This guy in Palm Beach.
He’s rich. Very rich. He has an airplane. He owns an island, you
know?”
Like a lot of kids who live inland, away from the Florida
coast, Mary’s dreams reach way beyond the dull, scrubby flat-

come up, and Mary’s head drops dramatically in anticipation.
Then a loud, sexy throb spills out of the earbuds: Britney Spears.
The bass line takes over, and she starts to dance, moving her
hips as she lip-synchs the lyrics:
With a taste of a poison paradise...
Mary’s swept away by the song. She's twirling around and
around, flinging her arms out to grab the clothes hanging up in
her closet —it’s like embracing ten thousand fans! Then she stops
and pulls out the earbuds. Suddenly she’s become fourteen again.
Just a girl, jittery, nervous.
What she’s thinking about now is what she will wear to the
big fancy house.
Mary desperately wants to make an impression. This will be her
first trip to the house. She does not want to look like a child on
this outing.
She picks out a pair of skinny white jeans, puts on a freshly
washed halter top that leaves her flat stomach bare. The cross
that Joe gave her last Christmas hangs from her neck.
Think of the money, she thinks.
For Mary, it’s incredible money. Several weeks’ wages at
Mickey D’s. And just for giving some old man a massage? She
twists the earbuds back in, dives into the closet, sings along with
Britney Spears:
Don’t you know that you're toxic?
The tight white jeans fit Mary perfectly. She turns to check
herself out in the mirror, cropping the scene with her fingers to

Jeffrey Epstein. Finally, desperately, he tried to sell the informa-
tion he'd stolen.
The papers named underage girls and the places where
Epstein had taken them. The list included locations in Califor-
nia, Paris, New Mexico, New York, and Michigan. The papers
also included the names, addresses, and phone numbers of
famous individuals— Henry Kissinger, Mick Jagger, Dustin Hoft-
man, Ralph Fiennes, David Koch, Ted Kennedy, Donald Trump, — | i
Bill Richardson, Bill Clinton, and former Israeli prime minister E
Ehud Barak among them.
This was intriguing, if not at all damning. Epstein madea EP
habit of collecting such information for future use. But informa- ae 4
tion pertaining to the girls would have bolstered the state's case
against Jeffrey Epstein, and by withholding it from the Palm
Beach PD and the FBI, Rodriguez had committed a crime.
In his defense, Rodriguez would say that the papers were an
“insurance policy.” Without them, he believed, Epstein would
have made him “disappear.”
But now Rodriguez needed the money. And so a few weeks F
after Epstein’s release from the Stockade, he approached a lawyer i
who was representing some of Epstein’s masseuses. He had the (a
“holy grail,” he insisted. A “golden nugget.” The names of hun- 4
dreds of girls, he said, who had been abused by Epstein. j
The lawyer told Rodriguez in no uncertain terms that he was E
obliged to turn whatever he had over to the authorities. By 4
demanding money for the information,

approval, on his own planes to New York and to Little Saint Jeff's,
where the locals have taken to referring to Epstein’s 727 as the
Lolita Express.
There are other restrictions, of course, that Epstein is sup-
posed to abide by. He has to provide the state of Florida with a
list of all the motor vehicles, boats, and airplanes he owns. The
full list includes two Escalades, six Suburbans, two Ford F-150s,
two Harley-Davidsons, a Land Rover, a Hummer H2, a thirty-
four-foot JVC boat, and a thirty-five-foot Donzi powerboat.
Three of his five planes turn out to be registered to a com-
pany called Air Ghislaine, Inc.
As a registered sex offender, Epstein 1s legally obliged to
undergo psychiatric treatment. This is a restriction he'll get
around by having his own psychologist submit a report to law
enforcement officers.
Epstein is also prohibited from accessing pornography on
the Internet and using social networking for sexual purposes.
For Jeffrey Epstein, there will be no Bangbros, Tinder, or
Swingles.com.
There will be lawsuits.
Six weeks before probation ends, he settles with seven women 4
who sue him in civil court. But Epstein can easily afford the se
tlement payments. He won't be going back to jail, and in regard
to further prosecution for any criminal actions, his troubles are ©
behind him.
Not everyone who's spent time in his company will be sO
lucky.

the outcome may have been different. But they were not
known to us at the time.
A prosecution decision must be based on admissible
facts known at the time. In cases of this type, those are
unusually difficult because victims are frightened and
often decline to testify or if they do speak, they give con-
tradictory statements. Our judgment in this case, based
on the evidence known at the time, was that it was better
to have a billionaire serve time in jail, register as a Sex
offender, and pay his victims restitution than risk a trial
with a reduced likelihood of success. | supported that
judgment then, and based on the state law as it then stood
and the evidence known at the time, I would support that
judgment again.
Epstein’s treatment, while in state custody, likewise
may encourage the view that the office should have been
tougher. Although the terms of confinement in a state
prison are a matter appropriately left to the State of Flor-
ida, and not federal authorities, without doubt, the treat-
ment that he received while in state custody undermined
the purpose of a jail sentence.
Some may also believe that the prosecution should
have been tougher in retaliation for the defense’s tactics.
The defense, arguably, often failed to negotiate in good
faith. They would obtain concessions as part of a negotia-
tion and agree to proceed, only to change their minds,
and appeal the office’s position to Washington. The inves-
tigations into the family lives of indiv

Kennedy Smith. The prosecutors presented Epstein a
choice: plead to more serious state felony charges (that
would result in 2 years’ imprisonment, registration as a
sexual offender, and restitution for the victims) or else
prepare for a federal felony trial.
What followed was a year-long assault on the prose-
cution and the prosecutors. I use the word assault inten-
tionally, as the defense in this case was more aggressive
than any which I, or the prosecutors in my office, had
previously encountered. Mr. Epstein hired an army of
legal superstars: Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz, for-
mer Judge and then Pepperdine Law Dean Kenneth Starr,
former Deputy Assistant to the President and then Kirk-
land & Ellis Partner Jay Lefkowitz, and several others,
including prosecutors who had formerly worked in the
U.S. Attorney’s Office and in the Child Exploitation and
Obscenity Section of the Justice Department. Defense
attorneys next requested a meeting with me to challenge
the prosecution and the terms previously presented by
the prosecutors in their meeting with Mr. Black. The
prosecution team and 1 met with defense counsel in Fall
2007, and I reaffirmed the office’s position: two years,
registration and restitution, or trial.
Over the next several months, the defense team pre-
sented argument after argument claiming that felony
criminal proceedings against Epstein were unsupported
by the evidence and lacked a basis in law, and that the

fit the category we have to ensure the general population is not
going to take their anger out on.”
Although he understands that Epstein is a sex offender
and has a sense of the scope of his alleged crimes, Bradshaw's
also aware that the actual conviction was for a “low-level felony.”
At the request of Epstein’s attorneys—a request that is con-
firmed by a court order—Epstein 1s quickly granted “work
release.”
What it means in practice is that six days a week, for up to
sixteen —sixteen! — hours each day, Epstein ts allowed to leave
the Stockade to be driven by a designated driver in a car ear-
marked especially for him to any one of three places: his lawyer
Jack Goldberger’s office in downtown West Palm Beach, the
Palm Beach office of a science foundation that he’s established,
and his house on El Brillo Way.
Despite the ankle bracelet he wears, it could be argued that
as a fabulously rich prisoner with two of his own jets parked
nearby, at the Palm Beach International Airport, Epstein might
have posed a flight risk.
Instead, every day of the week save one, he’s allowed to go to 3 =
his lawyer’s, to go to his office, or simply to go home.
Did the deputy in charge of Epstein go to the house on El g
Brillo Way?
Ric Bradshaw considers the question.
“Yes.” he says, “he did.”
Did the deputy go inside the house?
“Yes, he did.”
If so, the deputy might have encountered Nadia Marcinkova, ”

Some wait a year before making their way to the courthouse,
their date with the public defender, and an appearance betore
the judge. Some get out much sooner, if only they can make bail.
But there’s no bail without money— or at least collateral—and,
of course, being without money is often what lands people in jail
in the first place.
Jeffrey Epstein could have posted bail for every single inmate
in the Gun Club.
But that’s just one of the ways in which Epstein is unlike his
fellow inmates. He's an admitted pedophile now. Even a famous one.
And, famously, pedophiles tend to fare poorly in jail.
Luckily for Epstein, Ric Bradshaw, the sheriff in charge of
local jails, transfers Epstein to the infirmary, where he spends
exactly one night before being transferred seven miles up the
road to a much smaller, safer location: the Palm Beach County
Central Detention Center— or, as it’s known, the Stockade.
“It’s not somewhere we'd put a serial killer” Ric Bradshaw says.
Most of the residents here are addicts who take part in drug
education programs, prostitutes, petty criminals, and drunks.
It's a far safer place for Epstein to be, and, unlike other inmates a
(except, of course, those being held in solitary), he'll end up with ~
his own cell, even his own wing, which he has to himself. %
Epstein’s allowed to pay for a security guard, who sits outside the ©
cell and keeps watch. And he’s allowed any number of visitors.
For a convicted felon, it’s an extraordi

“Is the Icarus story, someone who flies too close to the sun,”
that journalist said in reference to “the agony” of Epstein's legal
“ordeal.”
“Did Icarus like massages?” Epstein responded.
But after Epstein’s indictment, there were no more boasts.
For the most part, he kept silent in public and retreated into his
Eyes Wide Shut world. And when the New York Times did manage
to get him to speak on the record, he spoke like a chastened man.
Sitting on his patio down on Little St. James, Epstein likened
himself to the shipwrecked Gulliver after he washes ashore on
Lilliput.
“Gulliver's playfulness had unintended consequences,” he said.
On the eve of his departure, he had a few more things to say:
“That is what happens with wealth. There are unexpected
burdens as well as benefits. ...”
“Your body can be confined, but not your mind....”
“I am not blameless. ...”
Outside of the agreement he'd signed with the prosecutor's
office, this was the closest Epstein had come to admitting his
guilt. But strange details were sprinkled throughout the story.
He had formed a “board of directors of friends” who would coun-
se] him on his behavior. And, seemingly for the first time, he'd
hired a full-time masseur—a man.
Readers of the New York Times might have wondered: Epstein
was going to jail for eighteen months. What need would he have
for a full-time masseur?
The story’s last line hinted at the answer: in preparation for ~
incarceration, Epstein had set up an e-mai

perform one or more lewd, lascivious and sexual acts,
including masturbation and touching the girl’s vagina.
Consistent with the foregoing plan and scheme, Jane Doe
was recruited to give Epstein a massage for monetary com-
pensation. Jane was brought to Epstein’s mansion in Palm
Beach. Once at the mansion, Jane wads introduced to Sarah
Kellen, who led her up the flight of stairs to the room with the
massage table. In this room, Epstein told Jane to take off her
clothes and give him a massage. Jane kept her panties and
bra on and complied with Epstein’s instructions. Epstein
wore only a towel around his waste [sic]. After a short period
of time, Epstein removed the towel and rolled over exposing
his penis. Epstein began to masturbate and he sexually
assaulted Jane.
After Epstein had completed the assault, Jane was then
able to get dressed, leave the room and go back down the
stairs. Jane was paid $200 by Epstein. The young girl who
recruited Jane was paid $100 by Epstein for bringing Jane to
him.
As a result of this encounter with Epstein, Jane experi-
enced confusion, shame, humiliation and embarrassment, and
has suffered severe psychological and emotional injuries.

in the meantime, Epstein began to settle out of court with his
victims.
In February of 2008, a Virginia woman who went by the alias
Jane Doe #2 brought a fifty-million-dollar lawsuit against Epstein.
At the time of their meeting, she claimed, Epstein was fifty-two
years old. She was a teenager, and her complaint, which was
made public, gave the rest of the world an early glimpse of what
Epstein, and the inner workings of his secret world, looked like
from a victim's perspective.
“Epstein is a financier and money manager with a secret cli-
entele limited exclusively to billionaires.” the lawsuit alleged.
“He is himself a man of tremendous wealth, power and influ-
ence. He maintains his principal home in New York and also
owns residences in New Mexico, St. Thomas and Palm Beach,
FL. The allegations herein concern Epstein’s conduct while at his
lavish estate in Palm Beach.” The complaint continued:
Upon information and belief, Epstein has a sexual preference
and obsession for underage minor girls. He engaged in a plan
and scheme in which he gained access to primarily economi-
cally disadvantaged minor girls in his home, sexually
assaulted these girls, and then gave them money. In or about
9004-2005, Jane Doe, then approximately 16 years old, fell
into Epstein’s trap and became one of his victims.
Upon information and belief, Jeffrey Epstein carried out
his schemes and assaulted girls in Florida, New York, and on
his private Island, known as Little St. J

causes had made him a player on that side of the political aisle. He
had a famous Republican, Bill Clinton’s nemesis, Ken Starr, work-
ing the other side. And just to make sure they'd covered the bases,
Epstein’s team also recruited Roy Black—the lawyer who'd
cleared William Kennedy Smith of rape and kept Rush Limbaugh
out of prison for his alleged illegal drug use—and Jay Lefkowitz,
a defense attorney who'd worked with US attorney R. Alexander
Acosta at Ken Starr’s law firm.
And so in September, the US attorney’s office reached a for-
mal agreement with Epstein’s team: the United States would
defer federal prosecution in favor of prosecution by the state of
Florida.
A non-prosecution agreement (NPA) was drafted; among
other things, it assured Epstein that he would not be prosecuted
in the Southern District of Florida for felony offenses involving
the sexual abuse of underage girls. (By that point, thirty known
victims had been discovered.) Instead it allowed him to plead
guilty to state felony offenses for solicitation of prostitution and
the procurement of minors for prostitution. The NPA established
a procedure that allowed Epstein’s victims to sue him in civil
court and took the extraordinary step of ensuring that “any
potential co-conspirators” of Epstein’s would be immune from
prosecution.

to provide compensation in the manner described above, if

If Epstein’s legal team had wanted to remove Weiss from the
case, this would have been a good way to do it.
Nine days later, Detective Recarey met with ASA Lanna
Belohlavek, who told him that her boss, Barry Krischer, had asked
her again to take the case to the grand jury. Recarey told Belohlavek
that he had already requested arrest warrants for Epstein, Sarah Kel-
len, and Wendy Dobbs. The Palm Beach PD had finished its investi-
gation months earlier, he said, and had been waiting since then for
the case to move forward. He asked her once more to issue the war-
rants. Once again Belohlavek declined, saying that the original offer
her office had made to Epstein’s old lawyer had been resubmitted to
the new lawyer. When Epstein’s reply came, she would call.
While waiting for that call, Recarey received several calls
from Mary’s father, who told him that he was being followed by a
green Chevrolet Monte Carlo—tailed so aggressively that other
vehicles were being run off the road. Recarey ran the plates and
found that the Chevy was registered to one Zachary Bechard of
Jupiter, Florida.
Bechard was a licensed private eye.
“A funny thing happened in Palm Beach,” says Tim Malloy, who
was working as a TV newscaster in South Florida at the time.
“This would have been right around the time that Michael

originally, he said, “Let's go for it: this is an adult male in his
fries who's had sexual contact with children of the ages of
the victims.” He said this is somebody who we have to stop.
And whatever we need, he said, in the state attorney’s office,
we have a unit that’s equipped to investigate and prosecute
these kinds of cases. And I didn’t have too many facts early
on when I talked with him, but I knew that there were multi-
ple victims and to our detectives they were believable. So
when time went on and Mr. Epstein became aware of the
investigation and his lawyers contacted the state attorney's
office, they told me that.
And from that point on, and I believe it was Mr. Dershow-
itz initially, the tone and tenor of the discussions of this case
with Mr. Krischer changed completely. [At] one point he sug-
gested that we write [Epstein] a notice to appear, which
would be for a misdemeanor. He just completely changed
from not only our first conversation about this[ — when] he
didn't know the name Jeffrey Epstein—till when he had
been informed on Mr. Epstein’s reputation and his wealth,
and I just thought that very unusual.
I feel like I know him or knew him very well, the state
attorney, and I just felt like he could not objectively make
decisions about this case: that is why I wrote it.

Atty Alan Dershowitz. The offer is 1 count of Agg Assault
with intent to commit a felony, five years probation, with
adjudication withheld. Epstein would have to submit to psy-
chiatric/sexual evaluation and no unsupervised visits with
minors. When asked about all the other victims, ASA
Belohlavek stated that was the only offer made as to one vic-
tim, [Mary]. ASA Belohlavek|’s] cell phone rang and went to
voice mail. She checked her voice mail and played the mes-
sage on speaker. The caller identified himself as Atty Guy
Fronstin and acknowledged the deal made between them.
Fronstin stated in the message, he spoke with his client, Jef-
frey Epstein, and would agree to this deal. Fronstin asked to
call off the grand jury as they would accept this deal.
Belohlavek stated a probable cause would be needed to book
Epstein in the county Jail and would let me know as to when
it was needed. I explained my disapproval of the deal and not
being consulted prior to the deal being offered. However I
expressed that was only my opinion and the final approval
would come from the Chief of Police. She explained to have
Chief Reiter call Barry Krischer about the deal. I left the
area and returned to the police station where I briefed the
Chief about the deal offered.
I checked my voice mail messages and discovered a mes-
sage from [the] stepmother for the victim [Mary]. She was
calling because the State Attorney's Office still had not
returned any of her calls as to when they

Fven so, Reiter was beginning to wonder if Krischer was
stacking the deck in Epstein’s favor—if, thanks to the sway
prosecutors have over grand juries, assembling such a jury
wasn't an excellent way to let Epstein off with the lightest pun-
ishment possible.
Another unusual thing: the way Barry Krischer and the law-
yers working for him ignored Chief Reiter's multiple phone calls
as well as Detective Recareys— even though the police had been
hearing from Epstein’s own lawyers.
“(Krischer] and I had an excellent relationship,” Chief Reiter
said in his deposition. “I was the speaker at his swearing-in cere-
mony. And that he wouldnt return my phone calls—I mean, it
was clear to me by his actions that he could not objectively look
at this case.”
In the incident report he ended up writing, Detective Recarey
remembered a phone call that he received from Guy Fronstin,
one of the lawyers representing Epstein.
It was a message Epstein wanted to send, something central to
the case that demanded explanation. The whole shit show swirling
around him was just a misunderstanding—a misrepresentation—
of Epstein’s actual interests and intentions. .
Fronstin says Mr. Epstein is very passionate about massages,
Detective Recarey would write.
And: Mr. Epstein had donated over $100,000 to the Ballet of
Florida for massages.
And: The massages are therapeutic and spiritually sound for ©
him. That is why he has had so many massages.

of, and means of obtaining, oxycodone and hydrocodone. (A few
years after Limbaugh's arrest, which coincided with Chief Reit-
er’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, the talk-show host settled
with prosecutors, agreed to submit to random drug testing, and
gave up his firearms permit.)
Krischer himself, however, had been accused of sexual
misconduct.
In October of 1992, Jodi Bergeron, a legal secretary who'd worked
for Krischer, filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against him in the
Palm Beach County circuit court. That suit was dismissed, but a few
months later, the woman took Krischer to federal court, accusing
him of making unwanted advances and demanding recompense for
battery, negligence, invasion of privacy, and emotional distress.
Krischer had placed his hands, violently, inside her blouse,
the woman said. He'd forcibly fondled her breasts, forcibly kissed
her, and rubbed her shoulders while brushing her buttocks with
his hands and knees, all while accompanying the gestures with
verbal advances.
When she declined those advances, the woman claimed,
Krischer fired her.
Krischer denied the allegations. At the time, he was making his
fst run for the state attorney's office. The charges were politically
motivated, he said. Members of a local chapter of NOW—the
National Organization for Women—had stood by the lawyer, cit
ing his efforts to stop domestic violence, among his other virtues.

No, she told him. She wasn’t Epstein type. The girls she'd
seen at his house were very thin and beautiful and did not have
tattoos. This massage therapist had several tattoos that were vis-
ible, and on quite a few occasions Epstein and Ghislaine Max-
well had made negative comments about them.
According to a Palm Beach Police Department Incident Report
filed by Recarey on July 25, 2006, the detective had also heard
from Mary’s father, who said that a private eye had been to his
house, photographing his family and chasing visitors away.
Mary's dad had gotten the license plate — Florida E79-4EG.
Recarey traced it back to one Ivan Robles of West Palm Beach.
Robles turned out to be a licensed private investigator.
Recarey informed the state's attorney’s office.
Alison also contacted Recarey and told him that she'd been
approached by someone who was in touch with Epstein. Alison
had been told that she’d receive money if she would refuse to
cooperate with the police.
Those who help him will be compensated, she was told,
according to Detective Recarey’s incident report. “And those who
hurt him will be dealt with.”
Recarey reassured the girl and told her that tampering witha
witness in a case like this was a serious, arrestable offense.
Then he told an assistant state attorney.
The detective was leaving no i undotted and no t uncrossed.
But he did wonder if the state attorney's office itself had
become part of the problem.

that involved a very noteworthy person and that involved a num-
ber of underage females,” Reiter would say in his deposition for
the suit that was later settled by Epstein. “That it was of a sexual
nature. I was concerned that we had not reached all of the vic-
tims, and we hadn't, I’m sure, at this point. I told him that I felt
like the suspect would probably become aware of the investiga-
tion at some point and that we should probably expect some con-
tact from...Mr. Epstein’s lawyers. And I told him that | wanted
to keep him very well informed on this and that I hoped that he
would do the same. And that we would have to have more con-
tact in making sure it was handled responsibly, intelligently, and
appropriately as it moved forward.”
Reiter would say that Epstein’s name did not seem to ring a
bell with the state attorney. But shortly afterward, the chief
became aware that in certain powerful circles his investigation
was being looked upon unfavorably. “I had many people-related
conversations...on the cocktail-party circuit that suggested we
approach this in a way that wasnt necessary,” he would say.
Michael Reiter was a good cop. A good man. But he was about
to discover that when it came to men with the power and influ-
ence Epstein wielded, fairness under the law was a relative, mal-
leable concept.

“Why?” she asked when she got to speak to Carter directly.
“He's sensitive about the young women. And we still get to
run most of the piece.”
In her notebook, Ward wrote
had said: “I believe him,” he told her. “I’m Canadian.”
But the piece that came out, in the March issue, still created a
sensation. It was called “The Talented Mr. Epstein” in a sly refer-
ence to Patricia Highsmith’s celebrated suspense novel The Tal-
ented Mr. Ripley. The film adaptation, by Anthony Minghella, was
still fresh in the minds of Vanity Fair's readers. For Graydon
Carter, just posing the question Is Epstein some sort of scam artist,
like Ripley? had been question enough. And throughout the
piece, there were ironies readers wouldn't miss as they drew
their own conclusions about Epstein life story. It came through
clearly in the G rst line of the last paragraph of Ward's 7,500-word
“Many people comment there is something innocent,
down the rest of what Carter
story:
almost childlike about Jeffrey Epstein.”
In context, the word innocent was rather ironic—so much so
that it almost became its own opposite.
