NY Post today on billionaire Clinton buddy Jeff Epstein:

October 18, 2007 — The billionaire investor who has agreed to plead guilty for soliciting underage prostitutes at his Florida estate is being sued on charges of repeatedly sexually abusing a teenaged girl in his Upper East Side mansion. “You have a tight butt like a baby,” Jeffrey Epstein allegedly cooed to the teenaged Maximilia Cordero. In papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Cordero said she was only 16 when she was introduced to – and seduced by – Epstein, 54.

Bill Clinton on billionaire buddy Jeff Epstein:

“Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science,” Clinton says through a spokesman. “I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS.”
