Newly revealed Epstein secrets could help victims get their hands on more of his fortune
"In 2019, after Jeffrey Epstein died in jail while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges, his estate was valued at over $630 million. Only about a quarter of that fortune went to the women Epstein sexually abused. The Epstein Victims' Compensation Program - modeled on a system that had been used for victims of the 9/11 terror attacks and sex abuse in the Catholic Church - paid $125 million to 150 victims."
"As of March, after paying off various taxes and other liabilities, Epstein's estate still has more than $131 million left in assets. Much of it is set to become an inheritance for the people Epstein wanted it to go to, rather than his victims. New revelations about Epstein - the high-flying trafficker who counted Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and several billionaires among his friends - may now offer a chance to bring a bigger slice of his fortune to his victims."
Jeffrey Epstein's estate was valued at more than $630 million after his 2019 death while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. The Epstein Victims' Compensation Program paid $125 million to 150 victims, and the estate paid over $45 million more to other victims. After paying taxes and liabilities, the estate still held more than $131 million as of March. Much of the remaining assets are slated to become inheritances for Epstein's chosen beneficiaries rather than victims. Newly obtained bank records, emails, and Congressional reviews disclose cash payments to women and gifts to powerful people. Those revelations could enable further legal recovery of assets for victims.
