Analysis of more than 5,000 emails belonging to the depraved billionaire Jeffrey Epstein has revealed new details about the relationship between Epstein and top US executive Ben Black. It is alleged that Black invested in the same company as Epstein and had various contacts with him, while his lawyers denied the bulk of these claims.
Striking details have emerged regarding the connection between Ben Black, the CEO of the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), and Jeffrey Epstein, who was found dead in prison while facing charges of running a sex trafficking network targeting underage girls.
According to a report by The Guardian, over 5,000 emails belonging to Epstein were examined, revealing new information about his ties to Ben Black.
THEY WERE FOUND TO HAVE INVESTED IN THE SAME COMPANY
The report stated that Ben Black and some of his family members invested in a company called Environmental Solutions Worldwide (ESWW) in 2011, in which Epstein was a shareholder through a shell company. It was noted that Ben Black and his brother Joshua Black served as executives at the same company that year.
Meanwhile, it was also mentioned that investor Leon Black had previously advised Epstein regarding the said investment.
RELATIONS LASTED FOR YEARS
According to the emails, contacts between Ben Black and Epstein are alleged to have extended back to 2012. It was claimed that various meetings were planned between the parties, that Epstein attended Black's birthday event, and that he took part in some private gatherings.
However, Ben Black's lawyers argued that these allegations do not reflect the truth, stating that Epstein often exaggerated his connections and tried to appear more influential than he was.
ALLEGATION OF ADVICE ON HOME PURCHASE
The reviewed correspondence reportedly included statements suggesting that Epstein provided financial advice to Ben Black regarding the purchase of a multi-million dollar residence.
The name of Ben Black's father, Leon Black, had also appeared in Epstein's files previously, and the financial relationship between the two had sparked public debate.
