Here's How Jeffrey Epstein May Have Acquired A $77 Million Upper East Side Townhouse For $0
Business Insider ^ | 7/13/2019 | Libertina Brandt

Posted on 07/13/2019 5:45:09 PM PDT by Its All Over Except ...

Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on July 6 on suspicion of sex trafficking minors in his Manhattan and Florida homes from 2002 to 2005. The arrest comes over a decade after Epstein pleaded guilty to solicitation of prostitution and procurement of minors for prostitution and served 13 months in prison.

Epstein's real-estate portfolio has played a major role in the ongoing sex-trafficking and sexual abuse allegations against him. ...

At the center of the investigation is Epstein's Upper East Side townhouse, which is one of the largest private homes in Manhattan. The FBI raided the seven-story mansion on 9 East 71st Street in July and found nude photos, one of which reportedly included an underaged girl. ...

The townhouse was bought in 1989 by founder and CEO of L Brands Les Wexner for $13.2 million. Wexner then sold it in 1998 to the New York-based Nine East 71st Street Corporation (NES) for an undisclosed amount. Public records from 2011 show that Epstein held, to some degree, ownership of NES. Details of his relationship with the company are still unclear. ...

Public records show that, in 2011, the ownership of the property was transferred from NES to the Virgin Islands-based company Maple Inc., another company also controlled by Epstein. Documents indicate that the property was transferred to Maple for $0. ...

Public documents of the 2011 transfer show that Epstein signed as the president of both NES and Maple Inc. Since he was an owner of both companies, he essentially acted as both the buyer and seller in the transaction, thus resulting in a $0 transfer.

I know a lot of people turn their nose up at Q

That's because they're probably involved in pedophilia too. You see the vitrolic reaction Hollywood has towards Trump? They're pissed because he's shutting down the sex traffickers.

Credit to other Freeps:

Woody Allen used to hang out where...? At The Dalton School, where Epstein taught. He later made a movie (loosely?) based on his experiences there.

Famed fiction author Philip Roth used to do the same thing, but at nearby (women's) Finch College in NYPC.

No real documentation about his accumulation of wealth

...

I read today that he was a poor teacher, too. How did a loser get that rich?

He did spend a few years in college, just not enough to graduate.

That matter is in the CENTER of the minds of anyone mainly consuming their news from internet. Which is MOST people, now.

And about damn time.

Or BDT as my people say.

But where is Rachel at?

Some people think [RC] Ray Chandler is singing like a sex trafficking canary and giving up names. After all, she posted screen shots of the security cams at Epstein island on her social media. She wasn't shy about her game. This was back when they had political cover and THEY NEVER THOUGHT SHE WOULD LOSE.

Remember, this latest and proper Epstein investigation has been ongoing since Sessions set it in motion. You remember Sessions? The Keebler elf that dindu nuffem?

I still don’t understand how he could’ve got his expensive apartment for free.

Think of it this way.

Wexler gave it to him.

Your post was typical sophistry - and makes the very kind of blanket generalization you accuse in others (as a leftist would).

I never said he did nothing. I said - and say - he violated his Oath repeatedly, such as in defending the Federal abuse of power in the Bundy case, which was thrown out with prejudice by Gloria Navarro.

I don't much care what you say.

With all due respect.

I don’t quite understand the deal with the house. The question is whether the appropriate taxes were paid at each step along the way. If Epstein lives in a company owned house fine, but the housing benefit would be taxable income. If the company transfers the house to Epstein for $0, fine, but that’s a taxable event as well. Companies can’t simply gift expensive homes to their senior executives.

I’ve read about that elsewhere, from victim testimony.
