“But, what if Epstein had the resources of a large intelligence agency available?”

Bingo

It is coming out that his money stream appears to be off the books, and his net worth is unknown.

Everything about him reeks of corruption in every possible way.

"Occam’s Razor"

I'm normally a fan of Occam's razor, but I question its applicability here.

Epstein is a billionaire, he didn't get that way by the simplest method. I suspect all his activity had multiple layers of redundant safeguards.

He was caught once and got off near scot free. He didn't quit his activity, but he was likely way more careful.

A billionaire has no need of blackmail money. So I discount that theory. However he wanted to maintain his safety. I suspect his taping etc was a defensive tactic in case of rats.

Absolutely. I thought that was so obvious I failed to mention it. My bad.

I would not have a clue if it is Mossad, but it would certainly be one of the possibilities, wouldn’t it? How many big hitters in the intelligence community would there be? CIA? The Russians? The Chinese?

Private island or not, Little St. James is under US jurisdiction as part of the US Virgin Islands (I'd imagine these pedos got a giggle out of that), and has never been raided to my knowledge. This to me is telling as to just whose intelligence might have a hand in this.

No. You cannot blackmail people of this stature and power and influence and live very long.

Why not? It is done all the time. Epstein need not have been a single individual who was doing it. He could easily have been an agent of a government or governments.

Killing him would not solve a target's problem.

Using blackmail to extract information is one of the most common tools for an intelligence agency.
