LITERARY SDNY, April 19 -- Names of those serviced by Jeffrey Epstein were being read out but few remained to hear it.
It was months after Ghislaine Maxwell had been convicted, at the end of 2021, and weeks after her motion for a new trial based on Juror 50 Scotty David had been denied. The circus had left town but still the names were coming.
Ronaldo Rizzo, and Eva and Glenn Dubin, of course. They had waived confidentiality. Eva had testified, haltingly, at Maxwell's trial. And Glenn as a hedge funder wanted to clear his name, to say that sure he had been on the Lolita Express flights but never laid a hand on Epstein's toxic product.
But there was another hedge funder, from Soros Fund Management and now Newlight Partners, flying under the radar.
Kurt Wheelock had stumbled on him during the Sarah Lawrence sex cult trial of Larry Ray, fodder for tabloids and New York Magazine but without the global resonance of Epstein or, if he ever arrived alive from Canada, Peter Nygard.
Kurt had put him and 120 others in a book, The Weasels of Wall Street, here, a follow-up to Maximum Maxwell.
He also appeared in Epstein's little black book. Kurt waited, as some John Does were unsealed and others not. Would he be named? And he if was not, like Kurt noticed of the UN-linked ones, what did it mean? More on Patreon here.
