Those who rejected offers and the 75 who were turned away can still pursue claims against Epstein\u0027s US$190 million estate
The fund offered nearly $125 million to about 150 claimants. Those who rejected offers and the 75 who were turned away can still pursue claims against Epstein’s estate, whose executors had proposed setting up the fund.
Jordana Feldman, the fund’s administrator, in a statement said claimants “had an opportunity to be heard in a safe space, to share the intimate, personal, often harrowing accounts of what they endured and how it has affected them.” Feldman announced the payouts one day before the second anniversary of Epstein’s Aug. 10, 2019 death.
Epstein, 66, killed himself in a Manhattan jail two days after signing his will, while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.Article content
