Trump says Epstein ‘stole’ young women staff from his Mar-a-Lago resort

Donald Trump, the president of the United States, claimed that Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex abuser and disgraced financier, “stole” young female workers at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

Trump claimed that one of the people who spoke to reporters on Tuesday while returning from a trip to Scotland was Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s most well-known accusers.

He hired people to leave the [Mar-a-Lago] spa, and they were taken out. In other words, Trump has been “gone.” When I learned of it, I told him, “We don’t want you taking our people,” I said.

“And then he repeated it not too long later. And I responded, “Get out of here.” “

As his administration refuses to release government records with details about Epstein’s abuses, the US president, who has had a long-standing relationship with him for years, has grown more defensive.

According to officials, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, releasing additional documents could lead to the dissemination of child pornography and victim-related information.

However, Bondi’s comments have fueled the contentiousness. Bondi claimed that Epstein’s alleged client list was “sitting on my desk right now” in a February interview with Fox News.

Conspiracy theorists have long held that Epstein kept a list or contact list to extort influential figures in politics and the arts. Additionally, they have questioned Epstein’s 2019 jailhouse suicide, calling it a cover-up without any evidence.

In previous media interviews, former FBI director Kash Patel and his deputy, Dan Bongino, had praised those theories.

However, a review by the Department of Justice and FBI later came to the conclusion that Epstein had died by suicide as the government had initially believed and that there was no justification for such a list.

Some members of Trump’s own far-right base, who have long speculated about Epstein’s connections to powerful people and his death, were offended by that assertion.

Giuffre has played a significant role in online conspiracies. She claimed that Epstein had pressured her into having sex with the powerful people in his orbit.

Giuffre maintained that Epstein’s ex-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell approached her when she was a teenager while working at Mar-a-Lago before her suicide earlier this year.

Giuffre worked as a spa attendant at the time. Her father worked in resort maintenance.

Giuffre claims that Maxwell paid for her sexual abuse after offering to pay for her to attend Masseuse Epstein. She claimed that Maxwell and Epstein had groomed her to perform sex acts for other men. Giuffre claimed that “moment” was occasionally used as a slang term for sex.

In New York, Giuffre ultimately sued Maxwell in civil court. Although Maxwell refutes Giuffre’s claims, she settled the case for an undisclosed sum.

Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for conspiring to sexually abuse underage girls in a federal prison in Florida.
