Jeffrey Epstein suddenly became a topic of conversation again after the New York Justice’s Office released documents involving his name last Wednesday (03/01). Reported by CNN International, the document contains the confession and accusations of Virginia Giuffre, a victim of sex trafficking, against Ghislaine Maxwell, who was Jeffrey’s right-hand man in his heinous act.
Jeffrey is a financial manager and he calls himself a science philanthropist. However, the public knows him as a sexual criminal who abused and trafficked underage girls during his lifetime.
To find out more about Jeffrey’s case, Netflix has released a documentary series that reveals the major “sins” of this rich businessman entitled “Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich”.
What is the content of the Netflix documentary series released in 2020? Check out the review below.
Sinopsis ‘Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich’

‘Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich’ consists of four episodes. The four episodes reveal how this man, born in 1953, started sexually abusing and creating a sex trafficking network for underage girls, one of whom was 14 years old.
At first, not many people knew about this man. Outside media refer to him as ‘Gatsby’, a fictional character in the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald who is described as a charismatic, mysterious and rich man with seven generations.
Jeffrey allegedly owns many luxury houses and properties in New York, Palm Beach, New Mexico, Paris, and so on. It was there that he committed heinous acts with Maxwell.
Netflix invited several of Jeffrey’s victims as sources in this documentary series. They told how they got caught in the vicious cycle of this sexual criminal duo.
From the confessions of all the victims, it appears that there is the same pattern. They were lured by 200 USD (around Rp. 3 million) to come to Jeffrey’s house and give him a massage. However, as you can imagine, the massage turned into harassment because they were asked to take off their clothes and watched the middle-aged man do indecent things.
They were also promised various things, such as making their dreams come true. For those who are able to recruit other young girls, they will get 200 USD. The system continues to run and branch like a spider’s web.
The victims, who are still minors, feel helpless. When they speak out, their safety will be intimidated and threatened by Maxwell and his henchmen.
Dragging Prince Andrew

Not only did they commit sexual harassment, Jeffrey and Maxwell were accused of sex trafficking of underage girls. They “lend” their mistresses to their acquaintances, most of whom are important and famous people in the world.
One of the scandals that most shocked the public dragged Prince Andrew from the British Empire. He is accused of molesting Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who was then 17 years old, in early 2001.
The scandal haunted the Duke of York’s days until he provided clarification through an interview with the BBC. Prince Andrew denied all the accusations that Virginia made against him and said he had never met the woman.
However, on the other hand, Virginia provides a different recognition via Netflix. He showed a picture of himself with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine in a house, before Andrew carried out his actions.
“Maxwell said to me, ‘You should do that to (Prince Andrew), like what you did to Jeffrey,” said the woman born in 1983 in the Netflix documentary series.
Former employees of Epstein also knew about Prince Andrew’s relationship with Virginia. He said Prince Andrew also touched Virginia in the swimming pool.
Again, Prince Andrew and Buckingham Palace denied all accusations against him.
The End of the Story of the Sexual Criminal

Reporting from AP News, Jeffrey Epstein was caught and sentenced to 18 months in prison in 2008 on charges of prostitution and child abuse.
Like a ruler who has many connections, he has special privileges. He can go in and out of prison at will on the pretext of taking care of his business. Because, there is a non-prosecution agreement (NPA) issued by the local legal institution so that he will not be tried.
It was only in 2019 that Jeffrey was arrested again on sex trafficking charges. The victims met with him and gave testimony in court.
In the midst of the happy news regarding the arrest of the masher, bad news came back to the victim. Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his prison cell while on trial for a series of sex trafficking charges.
Meanwhile, Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested in 2020 and sentenced to 20 years in prison after being found guilty in 2022.
The documentary series from Netflix contains several illustrations and conversations about how the two defendants carried out their actions. Watch wisely, Beauties!
