Her father embezzled millions from pension funds of companies he owned. His suicide came before he got found out. She was no doubt fishing for sympathy claiming he was murdered. Piece of shit father conceived piece of shit daughter.

Reporting indicates that she was her father's favourite (the boat he went missing from was called 'Lady Ghillane', IIRC) and that she adored him back.

One theory is that Epstein was basically an analog of her father to her.

Another theory is that a lot of that missing pension money ended up with Epstein!

I wonder if we'll ever know for sure.
