A 2010 email chain<\/a> sent to Epstein includes a description of a woman identified as \u201cKelly C.\u201d provided by a Brussels-based \u201cmodels agency\u201d called Casting Factory. Kelly\u2019s body measurements are provided along with an attestation she had a \u201cvery nice temper.\u201d POLITICO was unable to reach Casting Factory, which no longer has a functioning website. A visit to\u00a0 the address associated with it in the exchange of messages, in Brussels city center near Avenue Louise, revealed a building that now appears empty.<\/p>\n

Included in the exchange is a representative identified as being from MC2 Model Management \u2014 an agency co-founded by Epstein\u2019s long-time associate Jean-Luc Brunel. Brunel was found hanged in his Paris prison cell<\/a> in 2022 where he was being held on suspicion of raping minors and trafficking children for the purpose of sex.<\/p>\n

MC2 is now defunct and could not be reached for comment.<\/p>\n

Also in 2010, Epstein received a message<\/a> from a redacted address informing him that the sender was \u201cgetting ready for tmrw flight)\u201d and \u201cwill send you my new number from Brussels!\u201d A single bracket is frequently used as a text shorthand for a smiley face in Eastern Europe.<\/p>\n

Another message<\/a> to Epstein, also from a redacted address, simply reads \u201cmiss you))))) bisous from Brussels.\u201d Bisous means kisses in French.<\/p>\n

In another exchange<\/a>, an unknown sender reported to Epstein they had held a video call with a woman who appeared \u201cpretty nice,\u201d even if they \u201ccouldn\u2019t see her face very well.\u201d The woman, who was said to be \u201cwaiting for the visa\u201d, was described as having previously been \u201ca booker for a modeling agency (might have other candidates?) I think she will do well after our conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 2010 email chain sent to Epstein includes a description of a woman identified as \u201cKelly C.\u201d provided…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":552,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[104],"tags":[211,210,623,624,625,626,627,628,76],"class_list":{"0":"post-551","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-brussels","8":"tag-belgium","9":"tag-brussels","10":"tag-communications","11":"tag-crisis","12":"tag-miroslav-lajcak","13":"tag-peter-mandelson","14":"tag-slovakia","15":"tag-society-and-culture","16":"tag-united-states"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=551"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=551"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=551"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=551"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
