The estate of Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier who allegedly led a child sex trafficking ring, has been sued by the government of the U.S. Virgin Islands, which claims the right to confiscate tens of millions of dollars in assets that Epstein is said to have used in committing dozens of crimes, including rape and human trafficking of minors.
Epstein maintained an electronic database of his victims and his criminal enterprise operated from 2001 through 2018, the Jan. 15 complaint alleges.
