Epstein's mentor and enabler Les Wexner (Ohio's richest piece of shit & purveyor of women's underwear) obviously foresaw putting himself further up the line on claims to Epstein's estate...and if it happens at the expense of actual victims having to get in line behind him, so be it.
Yeah...piece of shit.

(4,390 posts)Elie Weisel was also in Epstein's black book. He and his Holocaust foundation fell victim to Bernie Madoff's Ponzi schemes, though this one eventually got something back and not left destitute Just wondering...was Weisel getting/offered some expert Epstein investment advice, like Wexner; getting tapped as a mark for philanthropic scam, round 2; blackmail, or just maybe an invite to Seder or Yom Kippur services. Surely Madoff and Epstein's paths must have crossed; their expertise in all things of the market demand so, no?

However, the whole Wexner/Epstein saga is decades long, starting with Wexner plucking Epstein out if obscurity as a math teacher. In their earliest days, it was generally understood in art circles (an arena in which Wexner was a philanthropic mover and shaker) that Epstein was the live-in, cared-for boyfriend. Wexner even set up real estate holdings in both their names. At some point, Wexner also turned over power-of-attorney to Epstein.
