During his first month of confinement, Epstein was visited by the female assis- tant who, girls told police, had escorted them to the room at his mansion where they gave him naked massages. Also trekking to the jail was a young woman whom Epstein purportedly de- scribed as his Yugoslavian sex slave. The wealthy financier and science wonk also has been visited by an expert on artificial intelligence, as well as a man who is a mixed martial arts aficionado and sometime movie stuntman.
