The estate of disgraced financier and convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was sued by the U.S. Virgin Islands on Wednesday, claiming he abused girls as young as 11 years old on his secluded island in that territory.

Epstein, 66, died in a federal jail in Manhattan in August after he was arrested on new sex trafficking charges of underage females in the early 2000s in Florida and New York.
