Jeffrey Epstein once “kicked” now fellow convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein out of his French home for trying to abuse one of his “favorite girls.”
“Weinstein was at Epstein’s apartment in France receiving a massage from one of Epstein’s girls when he attempted to aggressively convert the massage into something sexual,” Brad Edwards, a lawyer for some of Epstein’s accusers, wrote in a new book excerpt obtained by the Sun. “The girl rejected his advances. As the story goes, Harvey then verbally abused her for rejecting him.”
“Little did Harvey know, this was one of Epstein’s favourite girls at the time and Jeffrey viewed the aggressive mistreatment as disrespectful to him,” the lawyer wrote. “Jeffrey then came into the room, got in Harvey’s face, and kicked him out of his house, delivering the message that he was never to come back.”
Edwards said he heard “various versions of this story,” including from Epstein himself. He said that the former financial mogul “referred to Harvey as a pig.”
Weinstein was sentenced earlier this month to 23 years in prison over rape and sexual assault convictions. Epstein died in a New York prison cell last August and was facing a federal trial over dozens of accusations of rape.
