Expert Source on Epstein’s Irish & Slovak Connections Sought
Why wasn't Jeffrey Epstein more involved with Irish people?
This question wasn't approved by either /r/Ireland or /r/AskIreland so now I bring it to you:
Something I've been chewing on. I'm an Irish man, living and working in Slovakia. One of my several hustles is writing for a news website here. I've been working on a story the last few months regarding Epstein's connections to Slovakia. There's two main ones - a government minister who was all over the recent batch of emails, and a young model turned pilot who was his girlfriend for several years - since she was a teenager, possibly as young as 16.
From the Irish side, there's his association with Peter Mandleson who was the secretary for Northern Ireland for the Westminster government. Apparently they met in Dublin at some stage according to his birthday book. There wasn't much else aside from that. Unless I'm missing something, that is!
The thing is, Slovakia and Ireland are roughly the same population-wise, and Ireland is far more enmeshed into the US political and banking system, and we've loads of scientists and public intellectuals of the type that Epstein was so fond of spending time with. It's curious that there aren't more documented links between Epstein and Ireland. Did he just not like Irish girls? Did Epstein just steer clear of Irish people? Did Irish people steer clear of Epstein?
I want to state as well of course that my interest in the Epstein case is what it tells us about the structures of international power and how they function - not just the salacious nature of it all. Though I'm in it for that as well, if I'm honest.
