French probe identifies more suspected Epstein recruiters

Epstein probe news

French investigators have uncovered additional people suspected of recruiting victims for convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as prosecutors widen their inquiries into his activities in France and abroad.

Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said authorities had obtained the names of further “potential recruiters” but declined to identify them, describing Epstein’s network as extraordinarily complex.

Two investigations launched in February following the release of millions of Epstein-related documents in the United States are examining alleged human trafficking and recruitment as well as possible money laundering and tax offences. Investigators have now identified 26 alleged victims, including 13 who had not previously surfaced in Epstein-related proceedings, with eight people still awaiting interviews.



The inquiries stretch from New York to locations on the French Riviera, including Cannes and Saint-Tropez, where Epstein spent considerable time, as well as Paris, where he owned an apartment on Avenue Foch. An earlier French investigation focused heavily on modelling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, who was accused of recruiting young women and girls and died by suicide in prison in 2022 while facing charges including the rape of minors.

Investigators subsequently examined modelling scout Daniel Siad following allegations that he exploited aspiring models or introduced them to influential men; Siad was found dead near Paris in July, with prosecutors reporting no evidence of recent violence connected to his death.

  1. ‘Additional people’ sacrificial Lambs hauled out of the cracks
    Distraction to protect those rich and powerful at the top
    After all after this blood letting to exenterate this corruption everything must be transparent and above board- right?
    This is just going through the motions and needs to happen every now and again to project and protect the image and mirage of democracy

  2. Daniel Siad recruiter found dead.”In 2015, Siad met a 16-year-old New Zealand model and her friend in Paris and forwarded their modeling profiles to Epstein, who deemed them “too old.”[27] In Barcelona, where Siad settled around 2016–2017, he contacted modeling agencies, housed young models in his small apartment, and sent photos and details to Epstein,” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Siad
    And would you believe it… he was a JAJ (Just another Jewish person) who would have thought?? We are all told it was all about Social Justice…. preying on the little girls & boys, shows how pathetic it all is & how cowardly they really all are. That’s their real weakness.
