YouTuber Viva Frei had a lawyer on who gave the details of how Epstein got involved. Maxwells father was associated with several intelligence agencies starting in WWII. He had a big money extortion ring financed by various agencies and it was used extensively during the cold war. The daughter met Epstein through another crook and she got him connected to do the same thing. Epstein was a wonderful liar and salesman. It was the daughter who set it all up and started the financing running. Viva has a whole series on Epstein. Not sure how to get to the series, but this is the guy.
