"an embittered Jeffrey Epstein in 2011 believed his old friend Donald Trump had escaped scrutiny. I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump, Epstein wrote to his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell that April, noting Trump had spent hours at my house with Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent women to speak out about being abused by the financier, who died by suicide in April."
"The correspondence, obtained from Epstein's estate by the House Oversight Committee, was included among more than 20,000 documents released this week that brought the men's relationship history into greater focus. Scores of emails in the cache chart Epstein's obsession with Trump as he spiraled into scandal and his Palm Beach neighbor ascended to the presidency. Epstein was at a low point when he sent the missive to Maxwell after serving jail time in Florida for soliciting a 16-year-old."
Jeffrey Epstein was exiled by elite society after a conviction for soliciting a teenage girl and failed to rehabilitate his image as a sexual predator. In 2011 Epstein believed Donald Trump had escaped scrutiny and wrote to Ghislaine Maxwell that "that dog that hasn't barked is trump," noting Trump had spent hours at his house with Virginia Giuffre. More than 20,000 documents from Epstein's estate obtained by the House Oversight Committee detail the men's relationship history and dozens of emails showing Epstein's fixation on Trump as Epstein's scandal deepened and Trump rose politically. Epstein had recently served jail time in Florida and faced a rejected bid to downgrade his sex-offender status amid public accusations from Giuffre.
