Since Epstein’s arrest on Saturday, four women have reached out to New York lawyer David Boies, and at least 10 more women have gotten in touch with lawyers throughout the country who have represented Epstein’s victims in the past. Palm Beach attorney Jack Scarola told the Herald that at least five women, all of them minors at the time of the alleged abuse, had recently reached out to him and another lawyer, Brad Edwards, based in Fort Lauderdale. Scarola told the Herald, “The people we are speaking to are underage victims in Florida and in New York. They are not individuals whose claims have previously been part of any law-enforcement investigation.
On Monday, two days after Epstein was taken into custody in New Jersey, federal prosecutors indicted him on conspiracy and sex-trafficking charges stemming from allegations that he’d abused dozens of girls, at least one of them as young as 14. Epstein and his lawyers, meanwhile, are hard at work dreaming up ways for him to leave his jail cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan and return to his $77 million Manhattan house of grotesqueries. Epstein has experienced life behind bars, but shockingly little of it.
