“Jeffrey Epstein was in some respects fastidious. As he managed an international sex-trafficking operation, the size of which is likely yet to be comprehended, he was careful that the young women in his orbit were sexually healthy — ready to be used for his purposes,” E.J. Dickson writes.
The latest cache of documents released by the DOJ reveals that Epstein had an established system for making sure the women were tested for STDs, prescribed birth-control pills, and inoculated against HPV.
As a part of this system, he regularly made payments to at least three New York City gynecologists, as well as a dermatologist and his own personal physician. For the moment, it’s difficult to tell whether the involved women, whose names are largely redacted by the DOJ, are among those who have been considered victims.
It’s also unclear, to varying degrees, if the named physicians were aware of Epstein’s criminal activity, though by the time of the earliest relevant messages, he had been convicted for solicitation of a minor. What is certain, however, is that Epstein paid for many of these medical appointments directly via check or credit card.
It is also clear, from messages with his close contacts, that he was sending women to gynecologists and other physicians so frequently that it was common knowledge among some in his circle. In one December 12, 2012, email, an associate whose name is redacted but whose email address matches that of Mark Epstein, Jeffrey’s brother, asks Epstein, “Do you remember the name of the Gynocologist [sic] that you used to send your victims to?” Dickson reports on the doctors who helped Epstein keep his “girls” sexually fit: https://nymag.visitlink.me/bWevLl
