Erin ’s Reviews > Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice > Status Update

Epstein would only have sex with girls who had started menstruation. Why? So he could assert that they were biologically able to bear children so they were "of age".

The survivors of abuse who took on those who'd victimized them were routinely discredited, treated like whores, and beaten up all over again in the press.

"Epstein had taken what was left of my childhood. But now a tiny fraction of his immense fortune was going to ensure that my children grow up in their own home."

Epstein regularly attended Brockman's Billionaires' Dinner at TED, hobnobbing with a who's who of academia, literature, tech, and show business.

Epstein liked to boast that he'd had sex with more than a thousand girls supplied by French modeling agent Jean - Luc Brunel. On one occasion Epstein said Brunel sent him 3 French 12 year olds.

Maxwell liked to call the girls who regularly serviced Epstein her "children".

"I work for a billionaire who has a taste for beautiful young girls. He has contacts in the acting, modeling and art worlds, and he'd love to help you make your dreams true. Come meet him."

Girls got paid $200 but procurers got $400 and they got to avoid having to service Epstein themselves.

Sometimes he'd talk about his plans to use his Zorro Ranch as a literal breeding ground to propagate babies.

"Epstein's world had only confirmed that certain privileged men existed in a liminal space outside the law, no matter how dastardly the behavior."
