A Florida man has been forced to shoot down the latest Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy — after becoming “a viral sensation” for being the spitting image of the notorious sex trafficker.
The silver-haired, square-jawed stranger found himself unexpectedly going viral after someone filmed him driving his convertible down a highway in the Sunshine State, suggesting he was the pedophile who had a Florida home and who many conspiracy theorists refuse to believe is dead.

If you go to the source and scroll down, there’s a short video of ‘Pete’. He doesn’t look anything like Epstein.

They erased Epstein’s brain and gave him a new identity. I knew it! Jeffery Epstein didn’t kill himself!

There was an episode of Always Sunny in Philadelphia with a character Dennis looked exactly like the subject in a wanted poster for a child molester being hung up all over town.

Nice work, the ears aren’t even close. The facial hair borders are different too. And the driver has no vertical slash in his lower forehead.

I can’t figure out why guys wear billed baseball caps backwards. The best I can come up with is they’re insecure about their baldness......but that doesn’t explain why they’re backwards.

I had one and his name was almost identical. No lie.
We were at a Beta convention in high school and he ran and won the race to be President. Everyone I saw later congratulated me.

Palm beach Pete? That’s as good a cover name as any I guess, Jeffrey.
Let’s see the finger prints.
