NY - Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein arrested on sex trafficking charges, 6 July 2019

Nothing illegal about being rich or a single person owning many homes, but I do wonder why a man who is not married and doesn't have kids needs the biggest residence in Manhattan. What's all the space used for? I hope LE is figuring that out.

These would seem to be crucial players in the NYC prosecution also. Two of them relocated to Mark Epstein’s brother’s building on 66th, blocks away from Jeffrey’s raided house at 9 E 71st

The east 60's and 70's (Lenox Hill) is a very nice, cosy neighborhood.

I genuinely believe the people who live in this area, as anywhere else, don't want their neighbors involved in this kind of activity, regardless.

Bill Cosby lived across the street

yup
ill look for a link

The house also has a heated sidewalk, a luxurious provision that explains why, while snow blankets the rest of the Eastern Seaboard, the Wexner house (and Bill Cosby's house across the street) remains opulently snow-free.

Yes, we cringed here, too, as it happened.

Edited to add: His "correction" of saying there was no penetration was also cringeworthy, as well as hurtful and arrogant, imo.

What else can he say? Its all true and there's really no way to defend the actions of JE, his clients or the people who helped him sell these young women.

I guess he should have settled for "no comment".

Bill Cosby is reportedly going broke paying for multiple legal bills
He bought the six-story townhouse in 1987 for $6.2 million and reportedly spent another $1.2 million renovating it. Neighbors include Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, Cantor Fitzgerald CEO and chairman Howard Lutnick, and billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who spent 13 months in jail after pleading guilty to soliciting prostitution from an underage girl in 2008.

My guess is pimping for and blackmailing the uber wealthy.

On another note I doubt he has anything on Trump, it would have all come out by now. Not being political here, just observing. If there were anything to bring Trump down Epstein would have been sacrificed by now. IMO

Agree. I wish I could find a source to follow this case that has zero political agenda. I just want the facts. If anyone finds one, please share.

I didn't know Woody lived there too
Bizarrely, Woody Allen, who’d been a father figure to teenaged Soon-Yi Previn before marrying her, lives nearby and is a pal of Epstein’s, the doorman said.
“Bill Cosby used to live here, too,” the doorman said. “Next to Woody Allen. We get all of them.”

Wonder why he feels the need to say this? Interesting.

Yeah especially since the stories about him on the plane have been around forever
Never denied it

Well, this non-political discussion was good while it lasted.

Thanks, all who kept to TOS.

I don't think anyone has been political, just posting what we're finding and reading JMO

Anybody with a credible claim against Epstein (or his associates my firm will rep pro bono. #ChildVictimsAct is new NY law for victims of child sex abuse. It ignores statute of limitations for a one year window starting Aug 14, 2019

I hope that by Thursday more and more victims now feel safe to come forward. This guy is so sick and I don't think for a minute he's acted alone in this. Let the curtain drop!
