Located on the southeast coast of St. Thomas in the Caribbean SeaLittle St. James's Island(little st.James Island), which was originally a small island with an area of 300,000 square meters, has become the most "dirty" island in the world.
More than 20 years ago, American billionairesJeffrey EpsteinBought it and built a stone mansion on the island.
Epstein with his girlfriendGhislaine MaxwellTogether, the two team up to find and lure young girls who are not well versed in the world, take them to the island, and use them to serve the world's top rich and powerful.
It wasn't until July 2019 that Epstein was convicted of being a minor, but on August 11, he was found dead in a prison in New York.
Because surveillance footage captured by cameras outside the corridor of Epstein's cell was "just" damaged, the cause of his death was ultimately determined to be "suspected suicide."
Epstein's girlfriend, British socialite Maxwell, was sentenced to 20 years in prison on June 28, 2022, for aiding Epstein's crimes, and remains in prison.
After this incident, Little St. James's Island has since become "famous" and is known as "Loli Island" by the world.
Although the case was not investigated further because of Epstein's death, a batch of court documents released by the federal district court in Manhattan pushed the case to the forefront.
In January 2024, under the order of New York District Judge Preska, more than 200 court documents related to Epstein were made public, and as these documents were declassified, a list of Epsteins involving hundreds of people also surfaced.
Former U.S. Predecessor**William Clinton, the late superstarMichael Jackson, the Prince of EnglandAndrew Edward, British physicistStephen Hawkingand other people's names were prominently listed, which immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.
The most eye-catching thing is another American predecessor who is preparing to participate in this year's **Donald TrumpThe name also appeared on the list, making the world fry.
Netizens have speculated about the relationship between Trump and Epstein's Loli Island? How did Epstein, who was born in a low-level family, accumulate hundreds of millions of family assets and become the "big devil"? In the 21 years between Epstein's purchase of the island in 1998 and eventually**, what happened to the island?
We may be able to learn from the documentary"Jeffrey Epstein: Dirty Fortunes."In the first **.
Epstein's square face, silver-haired eyebrows, blue eyes seem to see everything, and he is well-dressed and looks like a domineering president, making it difficult for you to associate him with the "big devil".
However, in response to the sentence: "The gold and jade are outside, and the ruins are in it", under its gorgeous appearance, there is a despicable and little-known past.
Born on January 20, 1953, in Brooklyn, New York, to a Jewish working-class family, Epstein showed intelligence from an early age, especially in mathematics, and attended Cooper Union College and then the Institute of Mathematics at New York University, but failed to earn an advanced degree.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't have a degree, Epstein firmly believes that as long as he is bold enough, he can also mix well, and he is naturally flexible and social, so it is easy to get the support of nobles.
In September 1974, he sneaked into the private Dalton School with a fake academic qualification, and became the principalDonald Barradmired him and opened the back door for him.
As a private school, most of the students at Dalton School were children of wealthy families, and Epstein, who taught math and physics, naturally did not miss the opportunity to befriend the powerful.
One of the girls was the daughter of Ace Greenberg, the chairman of the investment bank Bear Stearns, who Epstein "took care of" and dated frequently, and soon got into a relationship.
Greenberg also admired Epstein's talent in finance, and under his recommendation, Epstein infiltrated Bear Stearns and became a trader in the ** department, engaged in the business of helping customers invest and manage their finances.
From a math teacher to an investment banking elite, Epstein was like a fish in water, and soon mixed up in this industry and accumulated valuable experience.
In 1980, Epstein became a partner at Bear Stearns, but he was soon fired from the firm for financial fraud and irregularities.
In 1981, Epstein founded Jay Epstein, a financial management company that specializes in providing financial services to billionaires with a net worth of more than $1 billion.
Setting such a high threshold is tantamount to turning away a considerable number of investors. If your net worth is less than this and you want to get the services of Jay Epstein, you will only get a polite and impatient reply: No! Thank you! You're not qualified.
At the same time, Epstein is also very good at self-packaging, shaping his own financial elite persona in order to better integrate into the upper circle of friends.
Epstein was very good at using his status to build his social circle, and his way of befriending the rich and powerful was to provide special hospitality to the bigwigs.
In 1988, Epstein upgraded his business and founded Epstein Investments, which has since established close ties with Wall Street financial tycoons.
He also stepped into the political, business and academic circles with one foot, and also had close contacts with those fashionistas, and was a proper social celebrity.
Able to fight hotly with these social elites, in addition to Epstein's own conditions, with his girlfriendGhislaine MaxwellIt also has a lot to do with it.
Maxwell, the daughter of British publishing tycoon Robert Maxwell, graduated from Balliol College, Oxford, and grew up in high circles, developing a selfish, arrogant and ambitious personality.
November 5, 1991Robert MaxwellMaxwell lost his backers after jumping to his death off the Mediterranean island of Tenerife and having all his assets confiscated on suspicion of commercial fraud, but the 30-year-old Maxwell soon met the 38-year-old Epstein when he returned to New York.
Maxwell needed money to sustain himself in luxury, and Epstein was the best "ATM"; Epstein, for his part, took a fancy to Maxwell's strong connections in the upper echelons, and he needed a woman to organize his life, manage the money transfer and money laundering operations of investment firms, and satisfy his "special hobbies."
Epstein and Maxwell were ostensibly a couple, but in private, Epstein called Maxwell "Mama San".
Maxwell was in charge of finding young girls who were not well versed in the world, luring them into Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach with a good job, and luring them into the clutches of the devil.
In 1998, Epstein bought Little St. James' Island in the U.S. Virgin Islands for $7.95 million.
The northern part of the island is about 2,500 square meters of main villas and 3 small villas, with aprons, docks, gas stations, tennis courts, gyms, desalination systems and other facilities.
Little St. James's IslandLoli Island is 1,785 kilometers away from the continental United States, and it is all cut off by the ocean, so it is difficult for anyone to notice what is happening on the island.
As a result, Loli Island has become a paradise for the rich, and it is also a place outside the law for some people, and young girls and "guests" continue to come to the island.
The girls who were brought to the island were asked to wear Victoria's Secret bathing suits and pajamas, and were forced to provide various services to the rich under the guise of "massages". Most of these victim girls were born poor, with low education and lack of parental care, and when their minds were not yet mature, they were lured to the island by Maxwell with rhetoric and fell into the magic cave of Loli Island.
Maxwell's awesomeness lies in the fact that she is not only able to force the girls to submit and submit by coercion, inducement, soft and hard, but also "develops the downline", selects the capable ones from those girls, and buys them with money to bring their friends and classmates to the island.
The celebrities who come to the island for "recreation" include American elite politicians, business executives, foreign dignitaries, and even some scientists.
Of course, Epstein wasn't a fuel-efficient lamp, and Lori Island was monitored everywhere, making it easy for him to find girls trying to escape, and to secretly record the actions of the rich people when they landed on the island.
Epstein mastered the "materials" of these powerful and rich people, and he also controlled their lives and made them more closely related to himself.
Even if Epstein himself encountered big trouble, it could be resolved one by one through connections and relationships in the political and business worlds.
Because of this, as early as 2005, Epstein was criminally charged with **teenage girl**, and in 2008**.
But through what he called a "plea bargain," Florida prosecutors agreed not to prosecute him, eventually convicting him of "abetting a minor" and sentencing him to 18 months of "detention and parole at work," as well as paying a sum of money to the victim.
What is a "plea bargain"? It is in the United States, as long as you have money, you can take a sum of money out of your pocket, and use your guilty plea in exchange for a light sentence from the judicial system, making justice a transaction.
And Epstein also "applied" for work parole, where he was allowed to "work" six days a week, with 12 hours a weekday away from cell.
So while serving his sentence, Epstein's personal limousine would pick him up at 7:15 a.m. every weekday and drop him off at his Florida office until 10:40 p.m. to take him back to prison.
In the end, his parole application was granted, and he actually served a short sentence of 13 months.
It is precisely because of the connivance of the American judiciary that villains like Epstein are even more arrogant, thinking that they can cover the sky with one hand.
After he was released from prison, he began to intensify his efforts, frequently flying private jets between New York and Loli Island, turning illegal activities into business, and calling it the "Pyramid Project".
In 2017, the victims of Loli Island came forward to testify about the experience of being ** on the island, which attracted the attention of New York**, and soon launched a special investigation against Epstein.
On July 6, 2019, Epstein was arrested again for his alleged involvement with minors in New York and Florida.
This time, the FBI found a large amount of unsightly evidence in Epstein's residence, and then New York State prosecutors formally charged him with conspiracy to abduct and sell underage women, as well as conducting ** Yi.
Although Epstein insisted on pleading not guilty as always, this time the evidence was ironclad, and he could not be released on bail during the ** period.
While the investigation was in full swing, Epstein was found dead in his cell on the morning of August 10, 2019.
An autopsy revealed fractures in his neck and hyoid bone, which experts say is usually common in homicides, and because the cell's surveillance footage was broken "just right", he could only be judged to have committed suicide.
On June 28, 2022, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison by U.S. federal prosecutors. She is now 63 years old, needs another 10 years in prison, and is spurned by the world for all her crimes.
In January this year, the federal court in Manhattan, New York, made public a large number of court documents in the "Epstein case", and the most interesting thing in these documents is the identity of the celebrities involved in the case.
It is said that the total number of people is more than 170, so let's pick some familiar characters here.
First of all, there is the late physicistStephen HawkingHe passed away on March 14, 2018, and is admired for his outstanding contributions to theoretical physics and cosmology, as well as his inspirational experience of being disabled.
Documents show that in March 2006, Hawking was invited to a barbecue on a nearby island after attending an academic conference.
It's hard to believe that Hawking has visited Loli Island many times before his death, and what Hawking, who can only move three fingers, will do on the island has also aroused the interest of netizens all over the world.
The meme about Hawking has gone viral, and netizens have expressed their opinions, but there is no further news to reveal the truth for us.
BritishPrince AndrewHe was accused by the teenage Virginia Giuffre of having illegal sexual relations with him, and disclosed a lot of disgusting details, and the content was unsightly. It is hard to imagine what kind of pressure a British prince will face after being exposed to these filthy things behind the glamour.
No matter how thick-skinned Prince Andrew was, it was difficult to resist the saliva of the British people, so he had to pull it out$12 millionIn exchange for an out-of-court settlement.
But because this incident was so humiliating, Andrew was permanently removed as a senior royal by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, and his reputation was ruined for the rest of his life.
The "Anonymous No. 36", which has been mentioned dozens of times in court documents, has been declassified, and he is the famous former American ** Clinton.
Epstein and Clinton were close friends, visiting the White House 17 times during Clinton's administration; But Clinton himself denied that he had ever landed on the island and claimed that he had no knowledge of Epstein's criminal deeds.
Michael Jackson had been to Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach, but had not received a "massage" or visited Loli Island.
This incident also proves once again that Jackson is indeed a world icon on the outside, although he passed away, the songs and dances he left behind have been covered and imitated, and his diligence, courage and kindness have always inspired the world, bringing light and hope to everyone in the world.
And then there's Donald Trump, whose name appears in a document that was made public on January 8.
One victim, Sarah Ransom, claimed that Trump had assaulted her friend, but her so-called "evidence" was that Trump had been seen having breakfast with her friend in Epstein's mansion.
Trump is not shy about visiting Epstein's home, but the mansion in the "testimony" is not on Loli Island. Trump had contact with Epstein around 2000, but he made it clear that he had never been on the island, and he soon parted ways with Epstein.
There is no evidence that Trump ever appeared on Loli Island in the current documents, but there is a testimony that Epstein once took his "Loli" to visit Trump's casino, but Trump turned them away on the grounds that minors were not allowed to enter.
We all know that this year is the first year of the United States, and the Manhattan Federal Court is at this critical point in time to ** the "Epstein" case, and to point the finger at Trump, it is hard to believe that this is not an ulterior motive.
But these so-called evidences are now self-defeating, which further proves that although Trump has a lot of faults, he still has a very bottom line in life, which has made more people support him.
From the "Epstein case", we can also see that the so-called justice and judicial fairness in Western countries are based on rotten money and interests. As long as those powerful people with eyes and eyes have money, they can bribe the court in the name of "plea bargaining" to achieve the goal of lenient sentences and even escape the punishment of the law.
People like Epstein did everything possible to conspire with the rich and powerful to climb up and build their own social networks, thinking that they could be above the law.
But in the face of monstrous public indignation, the capital tycoons hidden behind him will only choose to "abandon the pawn and protect the car" in the end.
