Jane Doe met Epstein and his friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, in the summer of 1994 at Michigan's interlochen Arts Camp, where she was In voice training, according to newly flied court papers suing Epstein's estate and Maxwell. The duo quickly took her under their wing, taking her to movies and on shopping trips in her home state of Florida and all the while grooming her for abuse, the Manhattan federal court suit says. Epstein "started to slowly display his pedophilic ways when shopping with Doe and Maxwell. Instead of letting Doe pick out clothes she wanted to wear, Epstein Insisted that she pick out and wear little children's cotton underwear," the suit says. EFTA00075104

The attacks escalated, the court papers claim. The financier would regularly sexually assault her and force her to perform sex acts in Palm Beach, New York City and his New Mexico ranch, always traveling to the locations on his private plane dubbed the "Lolita Express." At 16, Epstein put Doe up in one of his apartments in New York City — near his own townhouse, where he would allegedly rape her the next year. MAIM Feds finally start investigating Jeffrey Epstein's gal pal Ghislaine Maxwell "In 1997, while at Epstein's townhouse on 9 East 71st Street in the City of New York. Epstein asked 17-year-old Doe if she had a boyfriend. Doe replied that she did not," the lawsuit reads. "Epstein responded that when she did have a boyfriend she would want the sex to be 'good' and that she should 'get it over with already; meaning lose her virginity." "Despite Doe's resistance, Epstein then pushed Doe down onto her stomach and raped her. From that point forward for several years in New York. Epstein raped Doe on multiple occasions," the papers claim, noting Maxwell was often present when the abuse took place. The court papers also claim Epstein introduced her to President Trump when she was 14 years old, allegedly elbowing Trump and saying, "This is a good one, right?" "Trump smiled and nodded in agreement." the suit states. A spokesperson for the president did not immediately return a request for comment. Doe is suing Epstein's estate, alleging sexual assault, sexual battery, false imprisonment and other charges. Her complaint joins over a dozen filed by other women claiming they were trafficked and abused by the multi-millionaire. Epstein was found dead in his jail cell in August while awaiting trial for sex trafficking. His death was officially ruled a suicide by hanging. Lawyers for Maxwell and Epstein's estate did not immediately return emails. FILED Uk, • COURTS. DONALD TRUMP.
