RE: Request for Official Comment on an Investigation

E

Hello

My name is Elle Reeve and I'm a fact-checker with the news website The Daily Beast. We're running an article stating that the FBI has re-opened an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, that the investigation has been widened to include Epstein's associate Jean Luc Brunel plus Brunel's modelling agency, and that investigators are looking for evidence of child trafficking. Would you be able to give us an official response to these claims?

Thank you,

Elle Reeve

Hi Elle.

Thank you for your email. The USAO cannot comment. It is against DOJ and USAO Guidelines to either confirm or deny the existence of any investigation. Thank you for checking with me.
