Jeffrey Epstein Dies by Suicide in Jail. Here's What He Was Charged With
Jeffrey Epstein, the investor who faced federal charges of molesting teenage girls, has died, a person with knowledge of the situation said. The financier was found hanged in his Lower Manhattan jail cell in an apparent suicide, ABC News and other media outlets reported, citing law enforcement officials they didn’t identify. A gurney carrying a man who looked like Epstein was wheeled out of the Manhattan Correctional Center around 7:30 a.m., the New York Post reported. There was no immediate public confirmation of his death. Epstein had previously been moved to a suicide-watch unit after being found unconscious in his cell with marks on his neck on July 23, a week after his bail request had been rejected.
Epstein used his wealth and power to sexually abuse dozens of young girls for years at one of the biggest mansions in Manhattan, paying them hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter and hundreds more if they brought in more victims, U.S. prosecutors said.
Now, federal prosecutors are charging him with sex trafficking and conspiracy and seeking to send him prison for years and to seize that Manhattan home.
The indictment unsealed on Monday against the well-connected financier came days after his arrest upon returning from overseas and just hours after federal agents used a crowbar to enter the townhouse. The charges, which include sex acts with girls as young as 14, carry a minimum of 10 years in prison if he’s convicted. He is expected to make an appearance later on Monday and seek to be released on bail.
Epstein is a jet-setter famous for ferrying prominent figures including Donald Trump and Bill Clinton to his Palm Beach compound on a private jet that was later nicknamed the Lolita Express by the tabloids. He was taken into custody Saturday after years of accusations of child molestation and a previous conviction that yielded a minimal sentence. His deal with prosecutors in that case recently re-emerged as a political controversy.
Prosecutors said the sex acts occurred in Epstein’s homes in Palm Beach, Florida, and Manhattan. Epstein asked at least two girls what their ages were, and both replied truthfully that they were underage, according to the indictment.
The Justice Department is attempting to seize Epstein’s Manhattan residence through forfeiture proceedings, on the grounds that his spacious townhouse at 9 East 71st Street was used for the sex trafficking.
Epstein’s lawyers, Martin Weinberg and Reid Weingarten, declined to comment on the charges.
Epstein was arrested at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey after he returned from France, according to a person familiar with the matter. In court, prosecutors may emphasize his access to a private plane and a home overseas, along with his wealth and the steep penalty for sex trafficking, as part of an argument to deny The case against Epstein indicates that at least three employees of his were involved in recruiting and scheduling minors for sexual encounters with him, as well as other unspecified “associates.” One of them was based in New York, while two other assistants based at his mansion in Palm Beach were responsible for scheduling the encounters there and escorting victims to a room in the house, according to the indictment.
“Epstein created a vast network of underage victims for him to sexually exploit in locations including New York and Palm Beach,” according to the indictment.
U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman is scheduled to hold an 11 a.m. news conference.
Epstein has been held since his arrest at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in lower Manhattan, the same high-security facility where Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chief, is being detained while he faces state fraud charges.
Epstein has been under scrutiny for more than a decade, with teenage girls saying he used his employees to bring them to his Florida mansion for sex and paid them to recruit new victims.
In a 2008 plea deal that has received intense criticism, Epstein pleaded guilty to two state charges of soliciting a prostitute and served 13 months in a Florida state prison, while avoiding prosecution for federal sex-trafficking offenses and the decades of prison time he could have faced if convicted.

P. T. Barnum
Phineas Taylor Barnum (July 5, 1810 – April 7, 1891) was an American showman and businessman remembered for promoting celebrated hoaxes and for founding the Barnum & Bailey Circus. Although Barnum was also an author, publisher, philanthropist, and for some time a politician, he said of himself, I am a showman by profession...and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me, and his personal aims were to put money in his own coffers. Barnum is widely, but erroneously, credited with coining the phrase There's a sucker born every minute.
Born in Bethel, Connecticut, Barnum became a small-business owner in his early twenties, and founded a weekly newspaper, before moving to New York City in 1834. He embarked on an entertainment career, first with a variety troupe called Barnum's Grand Scientific and Musical Theater, and soon after by purchasing Scudder's American Museum, which he renamed after himself. Barnum used the museum as a platform to promote hoaxes and human curiosities such as the Feejee mermaid and General Tom Thumb. In 1850 he promoted the American tour of singer Jenny Lind, paying her an unprecedented $1,000 a night for 150 nights. After economic reversals due to bad investments in the 1850s, and years of litigation and public humiliation, he used a lecture tour, mostly as a temperance speaker, to emerge from debt. His museum added America's first aquarium and expanded the wax-figure department.

Doris Kearns Goodwin: 2018 National Book Festival
Doris Kearns Goodwin launches her new book Leadership: In Turbulent Times with David M. Rubenstein at the 2018 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
Speaker Biography: Doris Kearns Goodwin's interest in leadership began more than half a century ago as a teacher at Harvard. Her experiences working for LBJ in the White House and later assisting him on his memoirs led to Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream.

Goodwin earned the Lincoln Prize for the runaway best-seller Team of Rivals, the basis for Steven Spielberg's Academy Award–winning film Lincoln, and the Carnegie Medal for The Bully Pulpit, the New York Times best-selling chronicle of the friendship between Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft. Goodwin's new book is Leadership: In Turbulent Times (Simon & Schuster), in which she examines the four presidents she has studied most closely: Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon B. Johnson to show how they first recognized leadership qualities within themselves and were recognized by others as leaders. She lives in Concord, Massachusetts.

Authors at Google: Kevin Bleyer, ME THE PEOPLE: One Man's Quest to Rewrite the Constitution...
We think of our Constitution as the painstakingly designed blueprint drawn up by, in Thomas Jefferson's words, an assembly of demigods who laid the foundation for the sturdiest republic ever created. The truth is, it was no blueprint at all but an Etch A Sketch, a haphazard series of blunders, shaken clean and redrawn countless times during a summer of petty debates, drunken ramblings, and desperate compromise—as much the product of an assembly of demigods as a confederacy of dunces.
