Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein was arrested in New York City on Saturday on sex trafficking-related charges, according to multiple reports.
NBC 4 New York, citing sources, reported court documents state that Epstein allegedly had sexual encounters with dozens of underage girls at his Palm Beach, Florida residence. According to authorities, the politically connected hedge fund manager employed “female fixers” who sought out the girls from all over the world for such encounters. Some of the girls were allegedly transported to his homes in New York City, New Mexico, and a private Caribbean island, according to court documents.Law enforcement sources told NBC 4 New York that Epstein is expected to appear in federal court in Manhattan on Monday.
“It’s been a long time coming—it’s been too long coming,” David Boies, an attorney who represents a pair of Epstein accusers, said in a statement to the Daily Beast. “It is an important step towards getting justice for the many victims of Mr. Epstein’s sex trafficking enterpris
“We hope that prosecutors will not stop with Mr. Epstein because there were many other people who participated with him and made the sex trafficking possible,” added Boies.
The development comes after a federal appeals court on Wednesday ordered the unsealing of nearly 2,000 pages of records related to a civil case that may contain lurid claims about the sexual history of the wealthy investor.

What fraud? Also the deal appears to have covered charged and uncharged crimes.
Funny about popular word abuse. George Will’s “oxymoron” had a 20 year run. The same will probably happen with “allege.”
Epstein needs to be jailed for 100 years and no weekend jail times...
He has a long list of friends which include Prince Andrew, Senator Mendenez of NJ, Bill Clinton, lots of people are going down if they are after Trump.
It is an attack on Trump.
Not that Trump is guilty (if he is, I want a burning on the white house lawn), but a lot of GOP headliners are connected.
So expect a rather interesting summer.
Uncharged crimes related to unnamed victims are never covered by a plea deal.
