## Summary

Survivors say Jeffrey Epstein used promises of modelling opportunities and introductions to influential people to draw young women into a system of sexual abuse. Their accounts, featured in a BBC documentary, describe how scouts and modelling agencies helped connect him with aspiring models, many of them immigrants with little support in the United States.

One woman, identified by a pseudonym, says Epstein raped her about 200 times during the two years she knew him; another says she was pressured to recruit other women. Documents released by the US Department of Justice show Epstein gave $1 million to MC2 Model Management in 2005, while scout Daniel Siad appears in nearly 2,000 messages with him and was reportedly paid almost $100,000. The documentary’s contributors say recruitment shifted towards women from eastern Europe after Epstein’s 2008 conviction.
