Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich - on Netflix

[+ azdr0710]

(didn't find any other thread on this topic in a search)......

 

just joined streaming Netflix and found this among their "original series" productions......a 2020 four-parter, 55 minutes each, with a clean, fairly no-frills, straight-forward style....frequent flashbacks seem effective as new people involved in his life and case are introduced and connected.......the producers seem to have been very successful in finding many (not all) key players to interview for the show........entirely comprehensive and engrossing......and utterly sad and frustrating.......

I enjoyed it too. The surprise to me was that early on Epstein had been closely involved with a Ponzi scheme (according to testimony from the felon who led the scheme).

 

Annoyingly two aspects were left vague: how did Epstein make his money; and what was his relationship with Les Wexner (apart from Epstein being referred to as “the boyfriend” and according to Wexner having stolen at least $46 million from him).

Alan Dershowitz is allegedly filing a lawsuit against Netflix because of accusations from one of Epstein’s victims.

the source of his money is a mystery since most Wall Street moguls never worked with him. Side note AG Barr’s father hired him as a teacher at Dalton, a prestigious Manhattan prep school, even though Epstein never earned an undergrad degree.
