Jeffrey Epstein reportedly bankrolled by Ghislaine Maxwell's conman dad

[NYP] The mystery over Jeffrey Epstein’s millions may lie with the notorious conman father of his alleged sidekick Ghislaine Maxwell, according to a report.

Pedophile Epstein amassed a huge fortune with properties around the world, including his stunning Upper East Side mansion — yet no one has ever shown exactly how the shady moneyman made his millions.

Now an insider has provided lawyers sworn testimony saying Epstein was secretly bankrolled by his reputed ex’s dad, disgraced media baron Robert Maxwell, according to The Sun.

The UK newspaper owner had stolen hundreds of millions from his company’s pension funds before his mysterious death in 1991 when he was discovered floating in the Atlantic Ocean after being on his yacht The Lady Ghislaine, named after his daughter.

It was soon after her father’s death that Ghislaine fled to the Big Apple and became closely tied to Epstein, leading to her arrest earlier this year for allegedly procuring girls for him.

The possible financial ties between Epstein and Maxwell’s dad were allegedly disclosed by model scout Jean-Luc Brunel from chats almost 20 years ago, The Sun said.

"Jean-Luc was telling [acquaintances] how Ghislaine’s father Robert Maxwell was one of the reasons why Jeffrey Epstein had money," one of the Frenchman’s former close associates told the UK paper.

#1 Epstein was an American. The US Gov't, more precisely the IRS, knows all about this fellow's sources of income and wealth. My guess is the late Robert Maxwell may have been the original bag man, the cutout.

I'm delighted to see someone digging into Epstein's personal finances. Do I think it will go anywhere? No, the search likely dead-ends in McLean Virginia and Tel Aviv. We simply 'don't have a need to know.'

#4 It reeks something awful.

There are also some dots connected with Bill Browder (of Magnitsky fame [ergo, buddy of McCain]) and Edmond Safra. Add Hermitage Capital to the mix, and you have a hmmmmmm.

#5 It might be interesting but not important at this point to look into Ghislaine's relationship with her father.
