FYI at 21 college dropout Epstien, was hired by BS Barr’s father to ‘teach’.
Digging further into it, it appears that Barr left his position three months before Epstein began his job. I agree that it's unusual to hire someone so young and non-degreed as a teacher of such an advanced topic like physics, and then to leave before the hire even takes the job.
It looks on the surface that this school was some kind of an avant-garde school for the elite. I can't say that the elder Barr was grooming Epstein since he left before Epstein arrived, but it is one of those oddities that leaves doors wide open for interpretation.
