PALM BEACH POST Woman sues billionaire investor, says they had sex when she was 16™ Woman sues billionaire investor says they had sex when she was 16 or Classification: 3 JE-MM-108062 Submitting Office: The Associated Press NEW YORK — A billionaire investor, already facing jail in Palm Beach County on charges of soliciting under: age prostitutes, is being sued by a young woman who says he had ‘sex with her when she was 16 and had sought his help becoming a model. The lawsuit, filed late Tuesday in Manhattan's state Supreme Court, says finan- cier Jeffrey Epstein had the teen perform a sex act when she brought photographs of _ herself for him to ‘4 review in his 1 Upper East Side mansion sometime in 2000. Epstein, 54, a money manages, told the teen he managed Epstein finances for Victoria’s Secret” and “could get you into the catalog” if she were “nice” to him, court papers say. The papers say being “nice” included massages and other favors. When the girl told Epstein, ‘T am 16 years old and just want to model,” he replied, «Don't worry, I won't tell any- body,” court papers say. Mail on Sunday to be a close friend of England's Prince ‘Andrew, has been indicted in Palm Beach on charges of so- liciting underage prostitutes. That case is pending. The girl visited Epstein “geyeral times over the sev- eral months and engaged in bizarre and unnatural sex acts” while she was a minor, the lawsuit says. Epstein “repeatedly re- quested that (the girl) return with her ¥4-, 15-, and 16- year-old girlfriends, stating, ‘Come by with your friends your age next time. Dont bring Sherrie @ mutual friend in her 40s). I love girls your age.” The young woman, now 23, kept returning to Epstein because she has “mental issues,” said her lawyer, Wil Tiam J, Unroch. He refused to elaborate, but court papers say she was “disabled as a re- sult of severe mental disease and defect.” . Epstein’s lawyer in New York, Gerald Lefcourt, said, “The girl has admitted she is insane, but she can read a newspaper and recognize the word ‘rich.’” Lefcourt also said the statute of limitations has expired for the ‘woman's case criminally and civilly, and will almost certainly be dismissed. He refused to comment on Epstein’s Florida charges. Meanwhile, .Unroch, 5% also acknowledged that his client was living with him and was at the center of a $10 million lawsuit he filed last year against a neighbor who said he was having sex with underage girls. That case is pending. “What she was doing at 22 is irrelevant to what hap- pened to her when she was 16,” Unroch said Wednesday. He went on the say he hoped Epstein would agree to “do right” by his client and re- soive the case out of court. | Epstein, said by London's ofb56-1192 B/E -UH - 108062 ~ zy
