According to Epstein's former business partner, Steven Hoffenberg, Robert Maxwell introduced his daughter to Epstein in the late 1980s1491 The Times reported that Maxwell met Epstein in the early 199os at a New York party following "a difficult break-up with Count Gianfranco Cic9gns Mozzoni" (1962-2012) of the CIGA Hotels clan.19:13 Maxwell had a romantic relationship with Epstein for several years in the early 199os and remained closely associated with him for more than 25 years until his death in 201.9.1.F.gligsil The nature of their relationship remains unclear. In a 2009 deposition, several of 2006 mugshot of Epstein, Epstein's household employees testified that Epstein referred to her as by Palm Beach County his "main girlfriend" who also hired, fired, and supervised his staff, Sheriff's Office starting around 1992.5?1 She has also been referred to as the "Lady of the House" by Epstein's staff and as his "aggressive assistant's& In a 2003 Vanity Fair profile on Epstein, author Vicky Ward said Epstein referred to Maxwell as "my best friend".C541-Ward also observed that Maxwell seemed "to organize much of his life".IA41 -)t..Vitc,cer\vT 15th_cplic - sNeDeNlFROCC: neSTR PL-14:2) *- Politico reported that Maxwell and Epstein had friendships with several prominent in elite circles of politics, academia, business and law, including former Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, attorney Alan Dershowitz, and Prince Andrew, Duke of yojs.M Maxwell is known for her longstanding friendshipaq with Prince Andrew, and for Paving escorted him to a "hookers and pimps" social function in New York.1571 She introduced Epstein to Prince Andrew, and the three often socialised together.M In 2000, Maxwell and Epstein attended a party thrown by Prince Andrew at the Queen's Sandringham House estate in Norfolk, England, reportedly for Maxwell's 39th birthday.(50 In a November 2019 interview with the BBC, Prince Andrew confirmed that Maxwell and Epstein had attended an event at his invitation, but he denied that it was anything more than a "straightforward shooting weekend". 60 In 1995, Epstein renamed one of his companies the Ghislaine Corporation; based in Palm Beach, Florida, the company was dissolved in 1998.W1 As a trained helicopter pilot, Maxwell also transported Epstein to his private Caribbean island.0111-41 In 2008, Epstein was convicted of soliciting a minor for prostitution and served 13 months of an 18-month jail sentence. Following Epstein's release, although Maxwell continued to attend prominent social functions, she and Epstein were no longer seen together publicly.(27 By late 2015, Maxwell had largely retreated from attending social functions. 16~-1 Civil cases and accusations Civil suits v Maxwell (2015) EFTA00263278  -1761-6) N 5/19/22, 3:52 At ic - ON D1 NCB Jeffrey Epstein - Wikipedia which he purchased from his mentor. 6i Before the Herbert Straus house was purchased, Wexner purchased in 1988 the adjacent townhouse at n East 71st Street. Like in the case of the 9 East 71st Street house, Epstein was on the deed of the n East Thst Street house as the trustee. The townhouse was sold in 1996 to the Comet trust which holds part of the assets of the de Gunzburg/Bronfman family.127°1 Epstein rented offices for his business dealings in the Ward House at 457 Madison Avenue.1231 Steven Hoffenbe originally set up the offices for Epstein in 1987 when he was consulting for Tower Financial. ni Epstein used these offices until at least 2003. Around this time, Michael Wolff saw the financier in his office, which in the past were the offices of Random House.19-WCVolff noted that Epstein's offices were a strange place which did not have a corporate feel at all. Wolff stated that the offices were "almost European. It's old—old-fashioned, unrehabbed in its way." Wolff continued that "the trading floor is filled with guys in yarmulkes. Who they are, I have no idea. They're like a throwback, a bunch of guys from the fifties. So here is Jeffrey in this incredibly beautiful office, with pieces of art and a view of the courtyard, and he seems like the most relaxed guy in the world, You want to say 'What's going on here? and he gives you that Cheshire smile."(9S Epstein rented multiple apartment units for his employees, models, and guests since the 199os at 301 East 66th Street. The majority of the apartment complex at this address is owned by Ossa properties, which is owned by Jeffrey Epstein's brother, Mark, who purchased the complex in the early 199os from Weimer. Over the years Epstein has housed different friends at ii East 7ist Street, including his ex-girlfriend Eva Andersson, who is now married to his hedge-fund friend Glenn Dubin, MC2 Models founder Jean-the Brunel, and on occasions former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak He has housed some of his workers, including his pilot, housekeeper and office work staff, in the apartment complex. Epstein has also housed underage girls, who Brunel scouted for his MC2 modeling agency.Wo [81 On August 6, 2012, a model and party promoter associated with MC2, Pedro Gaspar, who lived above another of the modeling agency's locations in Manhattan, died of what some consider to be a suspicious drug overdose. Political donations From 1989 until 2003, Epstein donated more than $139,000 to U.S. Democratic Party federal candidates and committees and over $18,000 to U.S. Republican Party candidates and groups. Epstein contributed $50,000 to Democrat Bill Richardson's successful campaign for Governor of New Mexico in 2002 and again for his successful run for reelection in 2006. Also that year, he contributed $15,000 to Democrat Gary King's successful campaign for Attorney General of New Mexico. He later contributed $35,000 to King's 2014 unsuccessful campaign for Governor. Other contributions in New Mexico included Epstein $10,000 toward Jim Baca's campaign to become head of the land commission and $2,000 toward Santa Fe County Sheriff Jim Solano's bid for reelection. In 2010, Epstein received a notice from New Mexico Department of Public Safety which said, "You are not required to register [as a sex offender] with the state of New Mexico." This was in contravention of federal law, which would seem to say that the conviction in Florida required him to register in New Mexico.1273,1 -0 Philanthropy In 1991, Epstein' was one of four donors who pledged to raise US$2 million for a Hillel student building Rosovsky Hall at Harvard University.[~74M In 200041E;steinr established the Jeffrey Epstein VI FoundatioOwhich funds science research and education?Prior to 2003, the foundation Kindea Martin Nowak's research at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.
