There have long been questions about when and how Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein met. In fact, it was one of the first questions Todd Blanche, the Deputy US Attorney, asked Maxwell during her recent Department of Justice interview. <\/p>\n
Maxwell, who was previously charged with perjury for lying to investigators and has been convicted of sex trafficking, told Blanche that she met Epstein in 1991 and neither her nor her family ever heard of him before that. <\/p>\n
She said a girlfriend of hers said, “I’ve got a guy for you to meet” and that he was “looking for a wife”. However, in the birthday book, it seems the two may have met earlier in life, when she was still a teenager. <\/p>\n
In one letter, written by Elliot Wolk, he describes Epstein as a “star salesman” in 1970 when Wolk was running an account for Maxwell’s father, Robert Maxwell. <\/p>\n
He writes: “Was that when you first discovered the Maxwell teen-age daughter.” Then, in another notable letter from Epstein’s friend, Johnny Kafka, he mentions a post-college Europe trip that opened their eyes “to another world.” He wrote that Epstein spent the next summer in London and came home with “a beautiful British babe,” whose name is redacted, but could refer to Maxwell. <\/p>\n
There remain questions about the timeline of Epstein and Maxwell’s relationship, and the latest documents add another layer of doubt to Maxwell’s story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There have long been questions about when and how Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein met.
