In a shocking revelation, newly released court documents from the 2015 civil case against Ghislaine Maxwell by Virginia Giuffre have unveiled damning allegations against former CEO of Victoria’s Secret, Les Wexner. Giuffre, one of the alleged victims of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, claims to have had sex with Wexner multiple times. As the details of the court records, shedding light on Epstein’s alleged criminal activities, emerge, the implications of these accusations against Wexner are reverberating through the corridors of power.
Giuffre’s Claims:
The allegations stem from a 2015 civil case against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s associate, and include accusations against Wexner, who was named among Epstein’s long-rumored powerful friends. According to the documents, Giuffre accused Wexner of engaging in sexual activities with her “multiple” times. When pressed on the number, Giuffre responded that it was “more than three” and indicated a possibility of it being “more than five.”
Disturbing Details:
In the filed documents, Giuffre goes on to claim that she wore different types of lingerie for Wexner, with Maxwell allegedly orchestrating these encounters. Notably, Giuffre stated that it was not at Wexner’s request. When questioned about the lingerie’s brand, Giuffre stated that she didn’t remember if it was from Victoria’s Secret.
Financial Connections:
The New York Times reported on Swiss banking documents associated with some of Wexner’s entities, describing Epstein’s role as the “manager of fortune.” In 1991, Wexner granted Epstein power of attorney over his fortune, allowing Epstein to make financial decisions on Wexner’s behalf, including hiring personnel, buying and selling properties, and borrowing money. A spokesperson for L Brands, founded by Wexner, clarified that while Epstein served as Wexner’s personal money manager, he was not officially employed or authorized by the company.
Reactions and Denials:
Tammy Roberts Myers, a spokeswoman for L Brands, emphasized that Epstein’s role as Wexner’s personal money manager had ended nearly 12 years ago, asserting that he was never employed by nor served as an authorized representative of the company. These allegations come as a shock to many, given Wexner’s stature in the business world.
Maxwell’s Conviction and Epstein’s Death:
Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted of sex trafficking in 2022, is currently serving a 20-year sentence, which she is appealing. Jeffrey Epstein, facing 45 years in prison for his alleged crimes, was found dead in his Manhattan prison cell in August 2019, with authorities ruling his death as a suicide.
Conclusion:
The explosive allegations against Les Wexner, a prominent figure in the business world and former CEO of Victoria’s Secret, add another layer to the intricate web of the Epstein scandal. As these revelations reverberate through public discourse, questions about the extent of powerful individuals’ involvement in Epstein’s activities continue to linger. The legal and public relations ramifications for Wexner remain to be seen, as these revelations underscore the far-reaching consequences of the Epstein saga that continue to unfold.
