One of the biggest blows in the decade-plus case of Jeffrey Epstein came on Friday when a federal court unsealed documents from a lawsuit by one of Epsteins accusers against his mysterious girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell. Virginia Giuffre accused Maxwell of procuring young girls for sexual abuse by Epstein and his powerful friends. (The two sides settled in 2017.) The more than 2,000 pages of documents provide the greatest details yet on allegations against Epstein, including eye-popping claims involving some of the worlds most famous men, allegations of sex slaves, and more.
Here are some of the major revelations:
Directed to Have Sex With Worlds Most Powerful Men
Giuffre said in several depositions that Maxwell and Epstein trafficked her to powerful men for sex. In 2016, she said Maxwell specifically instructed her to serve former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, Britains Prince Andrew, wealthy financier Glenn Dubin, former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, modeling scout Jean-Luc Brunel, and scientist Marvin Minsky. She also says Maxwell and Epstein directed her to have sex with another prince, a "foreign president," a well-known prime minister" and the owner of a large hotel chain. None of the men named have been charged with a crime and all have denied inappropriate behavior.
Epstein Needed Three Orgasms a Day
A woman once employed to be Epsteins personal masseuse testified that he said he needed at least three orgasms every day day. It was biological, like eating, said Johanna Sjoberg. I thought it was a little crazy.

(24,328 posts)If the description 'chain' comes from the courts, it's less likely to be him, since Trump does not own hotel chains
Bill Marriott (Marriott Hotels) own hotel chains
Trump owns only 11 hotel properties (world wide) which does not qualify as a chain in business terminology (or meet the legal definition)
Most Trump Hotels paid to use his name, but he exercises no control over their operation
Hilton Hotels was privately owned until 2013
It could be Trump, but he doesn't own a large hotel chain, according to the legal definition

(11,610 posts)...but whatever he might have done in the shower alone was far better than what we know he did when he wasn't alone.
