The truth will come out," he further added. Jeffrey Epstein was a financier who amassed significant wealth, allegedly by managing money for billionaires, though much about his financial dealings remained shrouded in secrecy. Over the years, he cultivated relationships with a host of influential figures, including former US Presidents, British royalty, and prominent Hollywood personalities.

He surrounded himself with powerful figures, including former US Presidents, British royalty, and Hollywood elites. His criminal record began in 2008 with a guilty plea in Florida to child prostitution charges, resulting in a widely criticised 13-month sentence under a work-release deal.
