Filthy Rich

a Powerful Billionaire, the Sex Scandal That Undid Him, and All the Justice That Money Can Buy : the Shocking True Story of Jeffrey Epstein
At the time of this writing, that case is winding its way through the courts. It has all the earmarks of a modern-day Bleak House – The Charles Dickens novel about a legal case that is so massive and so complex that it drags on forever and drags everyone involved into the mire. === At the request of Epstein’s attorneys – a request that is confirmed by a court order – Epstein is quickly granted “work release.” What it means in practice is that six days a week, for up to sixteen – sixteen! Hours each day, Epstein is allowed to leave the Stockade to be driven by a designated driver in a car earmarked especially for him to any one of three places: his lawyer Jack Goldberger’s office in downtown West Palm Beach, the Palm Beach office of a science foundation that he’s established and his house on El Brillo Way.
