To see if any met with unfortunate accidents or something like that? One thing that is known about certain people, that have no problem killing to keep their secrets.

(12,904 posts)I believe the OP was referring to something maybe happening to female students at the Dalton School.
At least I think that was the reference.

(12,904 posts)My brain sometimes goes on the fritz from having to remember which groups of people these scumbags think are throwaways, as well.
Disgusting pigs.
I think I hate them.

(7,947 posts)Just that Barr's father was on the board of Dalton and hired Epstein despite the lack of a degree.
Also that no one really knows how he made so much $$$ at his hedge fund when it sounds like he had one main client, Leslie Wexner, the Limited magnate (youngsters, this was the HOT cheap-clothes store in the 80s... I had this cute long sweater from there).
Wexner ended up losing the company and most of his money... maybe it all went to Epstein.
But like Trump, he has a mysterious financial past.

(27,813 posts)... from selling under-aged girls to wealthy gentleman for sex - men in a position to spend big bucks indulging certain appetites. Men in positions where engaging in such activities, if exposed, could ruin careers would be particularly anxious for assurances of discretion. But assurances aren't always what they're cracked-up to be.
But it's very possible - nay, probable - that financially, the child prostitution was just 'a front', because the real money was in the blackmail.
How many men, in positions of power and influence, have been tapped for a favour here, a favour there - in exchange for not being revealed as a sleazy pedophile?
We live in interesting times.

(18,402 posts)Where did you get that? Someone listed by Forbes as having a net worth of $4.8 Billion certainly cant have lost all his money. Plus, he continues to run the business he founded 50 years ago. Whatever the darker aspects of this Epstein story are, facts are still facts.
Les Wexner founded and runs L Brands, a global retail empire that includes Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works.
One of America's longest-serving CEOs, he has served as the company's CEO since founding the business more than five decades ago.
Today L Brands sells more than $12 billion worth of lingerie, soaps and candles annually across more than 3,000 stores around the world.
REAL TIME NET WORTH
$4.8B
