The investigation arises from conduct alleged to have occurred from in or about the 1990s through at least in or about 2007. Epstein is alleged to have engaged in a years-long pattern of enticing minor girls to engage in sex acts, starting with massages and escalating to acts including sexual intercourse, often in exchange for money. He has undertaken this conduct in at least New York, Florida, the U.S. Virgin Islands, New Mexico, and certain cities abroad. Esptain was assisted by individuals, including employees, girlfriends and friends, in the recruitment and enticement of the minors, and he paid certain minors to recruit additional underage girls. We estimate that there are at least 50 victims who were abused in New York, Florida and elsewhere, and who currently live throughout the United States and abroad. Significant investigative costs include frequent travel to interview victims and witnesses, and hiring a vendor to process voluminous paper records and media, among other costs.
