The details in the documents shared as part of the investigation into billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who was found dead in prison while awaiting trial on charges of establishing a sex trafficking network targeting underage girls, continue to be reflected in the public eye.
EPSTEIN SCANDAL REACHES SCHOOLS
The name of Leon Black, the former CEO of the parent company of Lifetouch, which provides photography services to schools in the U.S., also appears in the Epstein files, leading to reactions on social media. Social media users, noting that there were many bank transactions made by Black and a total of over 8,000 references, emphasize that the photos taken by Lifetouch may have been used for malicious purposes by Epstein and his associates. On the other hand, Lifetouch stated in a statement that the photos taken were never shared with any third party.
EPSTEIN'S FAKE PASSPORT
Among the documents, a presentation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) highlights an Austrian passport bearing Epstein's photo. The documents indicate that the passport was used between 1982-1983 and stated that it was one of the pieces of evidence used against Epstein in 2019 regarding his bail release. The fake name on the passport is noted to be "Marius Robert Fortelni," and it also bears stamps from France, England, and Saudi Arabia.
THE JEFFREY EPSTEIN CASE
Epstein, who was charged with sexually abusing dozens of girls under the age of 18 and establishing a prostitution network, was found dead in his cell at the New York Manhattan Metropolitan Correctional Center on August 10, 2019, while in custody.
The disclosed Epstein case files included famous names such as former Prince Andrew, U.S. President Donald Trump, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, actor Kevin Spacey, singer Michael Jackson, illusionist David Copperfield, lawyer Alan Dershowitz, and former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson.
The FBI also stated that as a result of its investigation with the U.S. Department of Justice, no evidence was found regarding the existence of a "client list" consisting of famous individuals, and it concluded that Epstein, who was alleged to have been murdered to cover up the crimes of individuals including government officials, celebrities, and businesspeople, actually committed suicide in his cell.
