Some excellent digging there Rich and Jackie. Wexner is a big figure in Epstein's history. He gave Epstein his house in Manhattan, for nothing. That's a 77 million dollar gift although it was purchased for 13 million the current valuation is 77. https://www.nytimes.com/1996/01/11/garden/home-sweet-elsewhere.html “Those curious to see the princely accommodations Mr. Wexner abandoned need look no further than the cover of last month’s Architectural Digest. When asked how long Mr. Wexner had occupied the property, Jeffrey Epstein, his protege and one of his financial advisers, replied, ‘Les never spent more than two months there.’ Thus the prorated cost of Mr. Wexner’s sejours would appear to have been in excess of a million dollars a day.” In the ’96 story, the Times wrote that when “reached in Florida last week, Mr. Epstein said that the house was now his.” It was officially deeded for $10 in 2011 from Wexner’s corporation to Epstein’s Maple, Inc. US Virgin Islands-based corporation according to New York City land records. |
