A two-count indictment unsealed by federal prosecutors on July 8 charged billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein with sex trafficking and conspiracy charges stemming from an international trafficking ring he allegedly ran.
Court documents show Epstein sexually exploited and abused dozens of minor girls at his homes in Manhattan, New York, and in Palm Beach, Florida, among others. Epstein, who is a registered sex offender, has largely managed to avoid major jail time, even after more than a decade of such allegations.
