Former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly stated that financier Jeffrey Epstein "stole" young women, including Virginia Giuffre, from his Mar-a-Lago club. Trump specifically accused Epstein of poaching employees from the spa at Mar-a-Lago, where Giuffre was reportedly employed before becoming one of Epstein's most prominent accusers. Trump claimed he confronted Epstein over the issue and subsequently cut ties with him, stating that for years he refused to speak to Epstein because of this behavior. Giuffre, who had accused Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking, has recently returned to public attention following Trump's remarks. The allegations have reignited scrutiny of Epstein's activities at Mar-a-Lago, a location reportedly used by Epstein and Maxwell to recruit victims. Trump has also faced criticism for previously describing Epstein as a "terrific guy" despite these claims. Additionally, Trump has responded to criticism from media figures concerning his relationship with Epstein, including an attack on radio host Charlamagne tha God. Epstein's black book, which includes names such as Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Trump, and Les Wexner, remains a symbol of the ongoing scandal, though all named have denied wrongdoing.
