In 2003 Vanity Fair nonchalantly reported that Jeffrey Epstein threatened a journalist's family three times

One reporter, in fact, received three threats from Epstein while preparing a piece. They were delivered in a jocular tone, but the message was clear: There will be trouble for your family if I don’t like the article.

The article also mentions several times how much he liked young girls:

There are many women in his life, mostly young

Epstein is known about town as a man who loves women—lots of them, mostly young

One young woman recalls being summoned by Ghislaine Maxwell to a concert

This same guest also attended a cocktail party thrown by Maxwell that Prince Andrew attended, which was filled, she says, with young Russian models

This man was not able to do what he did because he was particularly secretive or ingenious, he simply was allowed to by everyone around him, who actually admired him for how open he was.

I find it fascinating that as far back as 2003 when this was written, nobody knew what his “business” was or what his “job” consisted of. Have you ever met anyone in real life who had this kind of money and was secretive of their profession? Would that not raise some huge red flags that they were doing something illegal? This mans entire career was blackmail and sex trafficking. I’m sure he received money for both. So glad the American people’s money went to supporting this failure of a human being, because I would not be surprised if our tax dollars went to pay him off for politicians. What a world.

Check this out. In 1996 it was already known that Jeffrey Epstein had come in possession of a huge house for no reason.

Probably the reason why he was so open about everything he did was that he knew that he had some kind of protection from above. Everything he did raised red flags, but they were ignored. I'd bet forcefully.
