Описание: " Dark Paradise: The Secrets of the island of 'Little St. James' and the scandal of Jeffrey Epstein"

the island * * "Little St. James" *located in the US Virgin Islands, which was bought by billionaire* Jeffrey Epstein * * in 1998 for about 8 million dollars [1]. Island D was a kind of paradise with palaces, luxurious villas and swimming pools, but the reality was so terrifying that the inhabitants of the neighboring islands called it *"the island of child molesters"* [1, 2].
Investigations revealed that the place was the headquarters of human trafficking operations and exploitation of underage girls (aged between 12 and 17 years) who were lured from poor backgrounds by a "hierarchical" employment system [2, 3]. The big shock was the list of visitors that included the elite of society from politicians, billionaires, and international celebrities who were attending private parties on the island [2, 4].
Jeffrey Epstein, who started his life as a math teacher and remained a financial adviser to the richest people in the world, was able to escape severe penalties at first because of *secret legal agreements**, but the case exploded again in 2019 and he was arrested on federal charges [4, 5]. The topic ended with a very vague ending when they met Epstein dead in his cell before his trial, and although the death was recorded as a suicide, the **malfunctions in surveillance cameras* and the circumstances surrounding his death gave rise to many conspiracy theories saying that he was killed because of the secrets revealed by powerful personalities [6]. To date, the case has not been considered one of the most disturbing and controversial scandals in recent history [7].
