WEST PAIN BEACH -- TYcoon Jeffrey 
Epstein mingled with an eclectic mix of 
people, including beautiful young women, 
before he got into trouble for paying teen-
age girls to give him sexual massages at 
his Palm Beach mansion. 
Not much has changed, even though 
he now resides in a dorm at the Palm 
Beach County Sheriff's Office 17-acre, 
967-bed stockade near the fairgrounds. 
During his first month of confinement, 
Epstein was visited by the female assis-
tant who, girls told police, had escorted 
them to the room at his mansion where 
they gave him naked massages. 
Also trekking to the jail was a young 
woman whom Epstein purportedly de-
scribed as his Yugoslavian sex slave. 
The wealthy financier and science 
wonk also has been visited by an expert 
on artificial intelligence, as well as a man 
who is a mixed martial arts aficionado 
and sometime movie stuntman. 
The only other people to visit him at 
the jail, according to records, are a Singer 
Island man and an individual who listed 
Epstein's Palm Beach address as his 
own. 
Epstein, 55. pleaded guilty on June 30 
to two prostitution-related charges and 
was sentenced to 18 months in jail, fol-
lowed by a year of house arrest. Epstein

paid teenage girls $200 to $300 in 2004 
and 2005 for massages in his home that 
sometimes included sexual touching.

His jail visitors in July included: 
■ Sarah Kellen, 29, who some of the 
teen masseuses said phoned them when 
Epstein was in town and escorted them 
upon their arrival at his Palm Beach 
waterfront home to an upstairs room. 
where she prepared the massage table 
and provided the oils for their encoun-
ters with him. Kellen visited Epstein 
three times in July according to a jail 
visitor's log. Kellen lists a Manhattan 
home address. Reached by telephone, 
she declined to discusstpstein.

ily in Yugoslavia Epstein paid money to 
so that he could bring her to the United 
States to be his "sex slave," two teenage 
girls told police. One girl told police 
that Epstein instructed Marcinkova 
and her to kiss and have sex while he 
watched and masturbated. Another said 
she engaged in sex with Marcinkova 
at Epstein's urging. Marcinkova visited 
Epstein in jail four times in 13 days. 
She lists her address as on the Upper 
East side of Manhattan, not far from 
Epstein's enormous apartment.

the Institute for Learning Sciences at 
Northwestern University and an expert 
on artificial intelligence, paid one visit 
to'Epstein. Schank has written numer-

in linguistics. He was one of 19 people 
who applied to be president of Florida

"chief learning officer" at the online 
Trump University in 2005. Schank 
listed his address as being in Stuart, 
and records show he also owns a home 
in Lake Worth. 
Epstein has financed a number of 
scientists .over the years, including 
Nobel Prize winners. He gave $30 mil-
lion to Harvard University in 2003. In 
November, he formed the not-for-profit 
Florida Science Foundation, which he 
said finances scientific research.
