Epstein and his requirements.


A woman who drafted a sex slave contract for Jeffrey Epstein while she trained to be a lawyer at Clifford Chance has identified herself as one of the predator's victims.

'V' interned at the firm from 2011 to 2012 as a trainee lawyer and hundreds of her emails with Epstein from the period have been disclosed by the US Department of Justice.

A spokesperson for Clifford Chance told RollOnFriday, "The firm has never acted for Epstein. The correspondence is not related to the business of the firm." 

Epstein was convicted in 2008 of procuring a child for prostitution, but after meeting him in 2011 V told him she was unfazed by his reputation. "I really would like you to teach me new things... as you asked I googled you. well, maybe your passion is Young girls as Snowboarding is mine. Im not scared anyway", she said.

Epstein, then 58, advised her that “if you want a job and you need to have sex to do it you have to accept sex”, and that “its not whom you know but whom you blow”.

The manipulative abuser presented himself as a mentor to V, critiquing her draft personal statement when she planned on swapping Clifford Chance for Harvard Law School.

“I do work on it now", V replied, "standing on the balcony of the meeting room of Clifford Chance… then closing my eyes and visualizing getting an acceptance letter from HLS”.

Epstein impressed her with his wealth, buying the young woman flights to New York and inviting her to his parties. “You and the girls are really fun! The fashion show with half naked models walking around...haha”, she told him in 2011. 

V was sufficiently dazzled that she described joining his harem as an honour: “Look at all the girls how much they love you and me becoming one of them, and all the love you give them, make them feel secure delighted thrilled comfortable and loved all the time, impressive”, she wrote.

When she listed risqué activities she could perform for Epstein, he encouraged her to “try to draft an agreement” and said he would review it “for errors and loopholes”.

V told him the assignment “is such a perfect legal work; - you make me do some really fun stuff while Clifford just gives me translations”.

The resulting contract stated that she would provide Epstein with “Favors” as his "Apprentice" which included finding "beautiful women among her friends and acquaintances", "Posing naked", "Playing sexual games" and "Making full body massages”.

The draft obliged Epstein to “try his best" to take V to a conference at the UN building in New York "during which the Favors can be provided to the Beneficiary”.

Epstein commented, “not a bad first try,, . there is no penalty for brach,? no third part mediation in case of dispute,... no quality assuaranvce. with standard practice.    , no time limit, a no complaining clause, etc”.

V's billable workload prevented a second pass at the document. “At the moment I work a LOT (about 15 hours per day) at Clifford on this recent case”, she told Epstein. “jeffrey.. they are really crazy here at clifford, make me work every day till midnight and later all week long and today too! SOS, am not used to it.”

“I do not know what your island is like but it should be a paradise”, she told him.

V sent explicit anecdotes and photos, and Epstein badgered her for more images while she was at work. "I'll buy", he told her in one message, asking in another, “why are you wearing clothes”.

When she told him she was going on a firm trip to Courchevel in the Alps, Epstein responded, “send me a sexy photo of you”.

The financier's sinister predilections came to the fore in December 2011 when V sent him a video of her younger sister. “jeffrey look its my little sister snowboarding in colorado at the moment - she is such a star - i couldnt do things she can do now! video of using your foreplay technics will follow ;)”

Epstein replied, “can;t open file send in diferent format”.

When V responded with a digression about her applications to other law firms, Epstein was dismissive: “great. plese resend your sister and ben video”.

A feature of Epstein's crimes was his curation of a vast network of victims, and he quickly groomed V into becoming one of his recruiters. Emailing her at work in 2011, he asked, “Did you find the my new girlfrined?”

V replied, “Oh i dont like sharing, would like to keep you all for me ;) There might be two candidates if you want, russian and austrian girls, both smart and blond”.

Epstein’s preferences became normalised: on another occasion she asked him, “what would you like me to bring you from sweden? except for girls?”

V became overt about her purpose, asking Epstein in 2012, “Do you want to see me or you are interested in me only because I found pretty girls for you?” 

She was also overt about Epstein's nature, telling him “you are the most talented psychologist and the most dangerous manipulator I've ever been going through - you make people believe in themselves, you give them confidence and incite them to do the most unbelievable things... You do it the way that they give you anything you ask for in return”.

After V left the firm in 2012, she was fired from an escort agency she joined to fund law school. V told Epstein that it meant “i wont be able to present you more girlfriends”. But, she said, “you have Sarah – she’s nice + i have a russian very cute friend if you want to know her :)”

Epstein declined in characteristically high-handed terms, contrasting with the chummy tone he took with powerful men like former Paul, Weiss chair Brad Karp.

“you have repeatedly done the oppositie of what i suggested you do. you are old enough to make your own mistakes”, he told her.

“jeffrey please dont be mad at me, im still young and stupid learning on my mistakes and trying to get somewhere in this world”, V replied.

V continued her search for more women for Epstein, updating him in 2013 that she was targeting law students: "There is one who is into finances and investments, very intelligent and super hot. others are law students, all beautiful and interesting people. I give English classes to one of them. She is thrilled to speak English to you, lol, her French accent is so cute."

"You can make them do catwalks for you or we go to gym and you play Mr Coach, ahah", said V.

By 2017 she was helping Epstein procure "young attractive assistant[s]", forwarding him details of lingerie models (he told her one of her candidates was "too old", and she acknowledged, "no more over 24! Sorry for that"). "The CVs and candidates keep on coming...i feel like a recruitment agency now :-)" she wrote.

V was chided when she lapsed: when she asked if Epstein could pay for her studies at Berkeley, he replied, "I am disappointed that you have yet to produce assistants as partn of our understanding. now that you are a lawyer i woudl have thought you recognized that an agreement had two sides, each with their own obligations”.

Epstein and V were in touch again in 2018 when she introduced him to a Seattle-based businessman as part of her new role in the US. She described Epstein to the tech entrepreneur as “a very dear friend for 7 years now. He is a brilliant financier, investor, philanthropist, promotes education.”

In a final exchange six months before he was arrested on child sex trafficking charges in 2019, V told Epstein, “I was thinking of you… I remember well your birthday in January 2012, it was the same day as my last work day at Clifford Chance... Thank you for bringing so much joy, inspiration and care in my life”.

Epstein replied, “Appreciate it”.

Back in 2014 she had asked him, "Older men can abuse us...how to figure out whom to trust is hard. How do you do it?" Epstein avoided answering.

In a statement provided to RollOnFriday on her behalf, US firm Boies Schiller Flexner said V "was a victim of Jeffrey Epstein" and a survivor of abuse. It said that her name was "inadvertently left unredacted in the Epstein files by the DOJ” and that the error was being corrected.

She procured girls for him from 2011 to 2019 and one of her first emails she said she googled him and said "maybe your passion is Young girls as Snowboarding is mine.". 

She knew what he was. She knew what he did. She willingly brought other girls to him.

At some point she went from victim to predator. 

Anonymous 06 February 26 09:41

this is truly nauseating. not only how she was abused but also corrupted and made complicit in the abuse of others.

This is how all big-law and big business works by the way. You start off whoring your ass, then you end up pimping others out and exploiting people (perhaps not for sex, but for power).  Junior lawyers are sadly pre-conditioned for this.

Big Pharma, Big Tech, Oil and Gas, Defence, etc etc.

The capitalist construct is replicated. Epstien was just more up-front than most that his intentions were evil.

This is useful in illustrating how complicated unravelling abuse cases can be - she was definitely groomed by him, but then she went on to groom others for him. It was an infernal system he had.

I feel so sorry for this victim, she suffered horrific abuse like trying to introduce girls to someone she knew was a convicted sex offender. 

Anonymous 06 February 26 10:17

The victim narrative stretches credulity here. She’s one of his victims in the same way that Jizz-lane Maxwell was one of his victims - she tried to procure girls for him knowing he was a pedo, all because he was mega wealthy. 

Reminds me of Mandelson saying he regretted having ever been “introduced” to him. It was the person who first introduced them who’s to blame, you see.

Perhaps it would it be easier if all of Epstein's many friends who weren't "victims" raised their hands?

What? Nobody at all? 

How odd... all of these successful, highly educated, financially secure people and not a single one had any agency of their own. All helpless victims. Perhaps more in need of our sympathy and financial compensation than our opprobrium.

Next up, a thread about grooming gangs in the North of England so that all of the people fixated on the Epstein files and the horrors of the patriarchy can tell us that it's wrong of anyone to take an interest in that kind of grooming because if you care about those girls it's only because you're a racist.

Nothing to see there. Let's stick to the easy case with celebrities in it and a dead perpetrator who can't accuse you of being a racist.

Hey, did you hear that he was a Mossad agent? People are saying. Nudge nudge wink wink.

This lawyer story interesting but it’s not significant information.

What is significant is that Epstein was obviously running some kind of influence peddling network almost certainly on behalf of the Israeli state. There is a very strong suspicion that the whole point of the girls was to allow for blackmail of those within the network. So they were knowingly filmed carrying out criminals acts. Some of the materials even suggest really evil crimes. But let’s just leave it at shagging 16-17 year olds for now as there is a mass of evidence for this. Blackmail is why the network keep taking photos. The photos are key to the operation. Whether there is an age of consent crime or it is merely shagging a prostitute or somewhere in between

In the emails epstein seems to be telling mandelson what to do. Mandelson works for him in effect. The media openly admits that mandelson has been one of the most influential figures in the Labour Party for decades. An adviser to Blair brown kinnock and starmer. Starmer effectively owes his appointment to mandelson and the anti corbyn faction. This seems to be why he appointed mandelson as an ambassador - he owed him one.

So we appear to have a direct mechanism by which the Israeli state directs the labour prime ministers of Britain. Mandelson in his pants may be entirely innocent. But it suggests something bad is going on. Either he just works for Epstein or Epstein has something on him or both.

All the above strongly suggests that democracy a farce and calls into question Labour Party and British government policy over the past 30 years.

This is before we even look into the other people Epstein may know in the other political parties or indeed in other countries.

Retroactive regret does not make you a victim. She is in fact an accomplice and needs to be punished to the full extent of the law, her being a female junior lawyer at the time does not excuse her actions in any way.

This is jaw dropping stuff.

But more that she is clearly not a "victim" - it's completely consensual nauseating behaviour.

I've read through thousands of the emails myself, and haven't found any evidence of paedophilia. There is one exchange with Wiggin (a low rate litigation boutique) re the Tatler, amongst others, where he effectively argues he's an ephebophile i.e. likes 18-22 year olds (give or take a year), evidence of that elsewhere also.

Wiggin has a terribly weak argument in response and acknowledges effectively he isn't a paedophile clinically speaking, but in common parlance, not medical terminology, he could be classified as one if he has an interest in post-pubesent minors i.e. implying even if over the age of 18.

The conviction he had in 2008 via a plea bargain was for a 17.5 year old - which, as peverted and weird as this man was, he and his supporters (including Richard Branson) are unfortunately correct - it's entirely legal in the vast majority of the world, including the UK. And for people in the UK to argue he's a convicted sex offender when it's not a crime in our own legal system...well, it says some things.

By the way, his 23 odd year old long term girlfriend to whom he left everything in his will was sending him in a back and forth relatively extreme porn links. Again consensually.

Although this was one girl who gave a public interview alleging he pressured her into sex while massaging him at 15, and she appeared convincing, but with that having been said, she was suing his estate along with others for $$$, so without a court process with disclosure and independent review, anyone can say anything.

It seems like a toxic cycle of golddigging and worshipping of Mammon.

So an adult woman got a chance to have a glamorous and exciting lifestyle that millions would want, consensually entered into some shenanigans no different from the sort of stuff in 50 Shades of Grey...so what? Yes all of this is deeply distasteful, but the West very emphatically discarded its Christian morality in the 60s and 70s. You can't have it both ways.

 

There are three entirely separate things going on here. (1) Jeffery Epstein has been proven to have committed a number of sexual acts with minors, and for that matter has confessed to them (clearly despicable and unacceptable to any sane person); (2) Jeffrey Epstein and some of his friends had a lot of sex with 18+ hired models, escorts and junior CC lawyers who broadly knew what was expected of them (unpleasant but hardly criminal); (3) a huge number of people found Epstein to be useful or genuinely interesting, and interacted with him in some capacity over the course of his very extensive career (not remotely illegal). Going insane over the second and third items on that list is only detracting from the genuine moral outrage there should be over the first.

Anonymous 06 February 26 12:49 -  the problem you have is that's is all (2) and (3), there is no "proof" of (1) by any stretch, there's proof for the 17 year old, but no compelling evidence below that - there are over a million emails and documents, find a single one where there is such evidence (besides anonymous tipsters etc.) or where he admits this. What you have is (2) and (3) in droves - a man in his 50s with a harem of young women mostly in their early 20s.

Why should all these calamities happen, why should the Western alliance collapse in such a sickening way, why should so many millions lose livelihoods due to tariffs... just so a certain country can engage in ethnic cleaning and expanding settlements???

Truly remarkable research here! There was an individual who posted several posts of Reddit with all the comprehensive lists of links for anything that raised eyebrows at various law firms. Each time they shared links, within an hour there entire account was suspended. 

They posted again this morning which a link to nudes sent from the trainee's work email. Account was banned in 3 minutes max.

One of the LawUK moderators is definitely protecting someone here. Dodgy as F.

I remember there being a second scandal about a woman from a second firm taking bribes from Epstein in the form of £7k handbags, which were delivered to a hotel where she collected them later that day. She also wrote how her affair with Epstein destroyed her marriage.

The email of Epstein saying that Deloitte can't handle thier liquor was pretty funny too.

@the commenter absurdly defending Epstein on the basis there is no "proof" of paedophilia.  Epstein's own conviction for child prostitution was reached as part of a plea deal relating to a number of charges relating to minors, from age 14 up, and of course charges were drawn up against him a second time for offences against minors, again aged 14 up, in 2019.  He wasn't found guilty on the second set of charges a because he committed suicide before trial (or someone else saved him the trouble). However, Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of grooming minors as young as 14 for Epstein.  So the abuse of children as young as 14 by Epstein has been established as fact in a court of law, albeit not in a trial of Epstein himself.

Fascinating that anti-semitism is so extreme in the UK that I can't tell if 11:03 is a troll or being sincere. Poe's Law in action.

It seems absurd that anyone could sincerely think that a racist video of Obama might somehow be all about Gaza. And yet, it wouldn't be close to the maddest thing we've heard the nutters of RoF say about Israel/Gaza stuff this week.

Obsessive crank? Or just someone impersonating an obsessive crank? How can we know for sure?

Almost everything you've said there is false.

“Epstein's own conviction for child prostitution was reached as part of a plea deal relating to a number of charges relating to minors, from age 14 up,”

False. There were allegations in police reports and witness statements involving girls as young as 14. Those allegations were never filed as charges in the Florida case. They were not part of the plea deal. They were not adjudicated. He was only - ONLY - charged with two charges -  solicitation of prostitution (misdemeanor) and solicitation of prostitution from a minor (felony - the minor was 17 years old). He pleaded guilty to to both.

"and of course charges were drawn up against him a second time for offences against minors, again aged 14 up, in 2019.  He wasn't found guilty on the second set of charges a because he committed suicide before trial (or someone else saved him the trouble)."

Yes, these indeed were charges filed. No, it was for the first time, and they weren't proven because no trial occured, not simply because he died. You can't say you absolutely know he would have been convicted and play judge, jury and executioner, despite never having seen any of the evidence either way first-hand in that case (no one has because it's sealed).

"However, Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of grooming minors as young as 14 for Epstein.  So the abuse of children as young as 14 by Epstein has been established as fact in a court of law, albeit not in a trial of Epstein himself."

False. Maxwell’s convictions in federal court in NYC were under federal statutes where “minor” means under 18, regardless of New York’s age of consent of 17. Those offences are effectively strict-liability as to age. If the person was under 18, it does not matter that they consented i.e. if there was a single person found to be 17 at the time by the jury, she was guilty of all charges. It does not matter that the defendant believed they were 18. Fake ID as alleged by the defence or reasonable belief is no defence. The jury did not make findings that Maxwell procured anyone under 16. References to 14–15-year-olds come from prosecution submissions, not from jury findings. US judges can do things differently to UK judges e.g. in sentencing remarks - the judge mentioned evidence the prosecution brought up, but in the US they can make factual statements in sentencing after a jury verdict on balance of probabilities, not beyond reasonable doubt, strictly outlawed in UK. None of this would translate to the UK in fact where the age of consent 16 and offences involving 16-17 year olds require proof of exploitation and abuse, not age alone, which was not the case here. Additionally, the charges Epstein would have faced would have been materially different and MATERIALLY trickier in many ways to prove (even though the conduct alleged against him was worse).

@Mr John - I know right!

I ask my girlfriend for pics of her hot sister, I get dumped.

Epstein does it and gets a "sorry, I'll send them right over, apologies for the delay".

I've hit on shitloads of Clifford Chance trainees but somehow managed to miss the ones that are quite that nuts. 

The hell am I doing wrong? Do I need to start laying it on thicker during their first year? Or do I just need to lie harder about the size of my bank account?
