New York Woman Files Lawsuit Against Estate of Jeffrey Epstein for Allegations of Sexual Abuse

Sex abuse lawsuit

NEW YORK – According to an online news article published by www.reuters.com, a New York woman with claims of sexual abuse against the now-deceased Jeffrey Epstein files a lawsuit against the financier’s estate.

A 32-year-old New York woman has filed a lawsuit against the estate of Jeffrey Epstein as well as co-conspirators, for alleged sexual abuse that happened when the woman was a 14-year-old girl.  The woman is pursuing the lawsuit under the authorization of the Child Victims Act, which allows victims to file lawsuits within 1 year after the Act goes into effect.

According to the New York woman’s lawsuit, an Epstein associate brought the then-14-year-old girl to Epstein’s mansion on the Upper East Side where she underwent a “grooming process” that ultimately resulted in months of abuse and a “brutal rape.”

The New York woman’s lawsuit is the first of its kind against Epstein under the Child Victims Act.  As such, it is expected that additional Epstein accusers will be filing lawsuits in the near future.  While Epstein is now deceased, the New York woman wants to ensure a female co-conspirator who lured girls to Epstein is held accountable.  The co-conspirator allegedly ensured that “approximately three girls a day were made available to him for his sexual pleasure.”

The New York woman publicly states that the lawsuit is the “first step toward reclaiming my power Jeffrey Epstein and his enablers stole from me,” and that both Epstein and his enablers “robbed me of my youth, my identity, my innocence and my self-worth.”

More than a decade ago, Epstein pleaded guilty to prostitution charges in Florida, but a non-prosecution agreement was put in place that is purported by many as being “too lenient.”  As such, while Epstein is no longer alive to face his accusers, victims can now take advantage of New York’s Child Victims Act to seek compensation and hold co-conspirators, such as Epstein’s handlers, accountable for their actions and complacency.

Jeffrey Epstein’s apparent suicide is currently being investigated by state and federal authorities.  Reports indicate that “guards on duty had failed to do a required headcount of all inmates every 30 minutes.”  Additionally, Attorney General William Barr “ordered the temporary transfer of Epstein’s jail warden, after condemning ‘serious irregularities’ at the facility” where Epstein was being held.
