In an interview posted on youtube, one victim talked about being recruited right outside the entry to her school, not far from Epstein’s residence — so she wasn’t gone for any extended period of time. The victims mostly seem to have been from financially-struggling, single mother households. My guess is the parent didn’t know at all, or the daughter gave mom a story about an after-school job.
Good guesses: financially-struggling, single mother households; parent didn’t know at all; daughter gave mom a story about an after-school job.
But how was Epstein able to fly the girls to his island for extended stays? How long were they there? A day? A few days? A week?
