Epstein prefers diminutive women, but Nadia is tall. She's
rail-thin and blond like the sun, with glowing skin, a wide smile,
and sky-high cheekbones.
On a good day, she could pass for a Bond girl—a woman
caught up in a web of crime and intrigue. But of course, that’s
exactly what she is.
In certain circles, the academics and the women in Epstein’s
orbit are almost a joke. In a 2003 profile of him, New York maga-
zine quotes Harvard professors (“He is amazing”), Princeton
professors (“He changed my life”), MIT professors (“If I had acted
upon the investment advice he has given me over the years, Td
be calling you from my Gulfstream right now”), and other lumi-
naries, up to and including Bill Clinton.
“Pye known Jeff for fifteen years,” says Donald Trump.
“Terrific guy; he’s a lot of fun to be with.”
No one knew then that someday Trump would run for presi-
dent. (When he does, he'll attack Hillary Clinton for Bill Clinton’s
own entanglements with Epstein.) But Trump’s already ahead of — t
the curve in that he ends up severing his ties to Epstein well 4
before the police or the media get wind of Epstein’s penchant for
underage girls.
He does this because he finds out that in their endless hunt ~
for “masseuses,” Epstein’s procurers have been prowling around ~
Trump’s estate in Palm Beach.
