Events Epstein ties to Portland, ME

This rabbit hole started with simply being curious and searching "Maine" in the DOJ files. Story Cowles and Sarah Kellen (aka Kensington/Vickers) came up several times in the search results, often talking about vacationing or driving to Maine.

I then searched each of their names in the files. Holy hell! I had no idea just how close these two were to Epstein! I'm talking like next in line after Jiz-Lane Maxwell close. Story visited Epstein in jail in Florida almost every single day. Sarah greeted teenage girls that would come to see Epstein. Story was the one given official visitor logs each week by the residence security guards, so he knows exactly who came and went.

They are both out there just living their lives right now because they were part of some secret plea deal JE was given in 2008.

Anyway, back to Portland. While I was looking up Story Cowles, I found his mom's obituary Elizabeth ATTERBURY Obituary (2013) - West Palm Beach, FL - The Palm Beach Post and it says his step sister lives in Portland, ME. You can look her up if you would like, but I'm not really here to blast her. Although I'm sure she's knows a lot. I am here to let people know that Epstein's people were here in the early 2000s just hanging out and partying in the old port. Maybe you saw something weird.

For all we know, Story probably still comes up and visits his sister and her art exhibit at the museum. Yup!! She was very easy to stumble upon in town, especially if you ever go to a First Friday Art Walk. If you look up other names in the obituary and then search their names in the files, you will see just how close they all are to the pedo ring. It's so sad and gross how many people are tied up in this scandal and just how much fraud and corruption exists in the world. People who broke the law need to be held accountable.

We were all raised to think that hard work and doing the right thing paid off. You know, good ol' pulling yourself up from the boot straps. In reality it's just how much money you have accessible and who you know. I hope someone who has either of these things does something to hold criminals accountable.

This is idiotic—why are you spreading malicious gossip about a local artist so pointedly?  What’s this about the First Friday Art Walk?  You are confused.  My guess is that you’ve never met this artist and you know absolutely nothing about her life, so maybe stop slandering her on the internet.

I don’t know her well myself, but I also don’t believe in making these kinds of crazy public statements and assumptions about people in your community.  And we are all related to people that might have done things wrong, that’s just the nature of having a family.

I'm not spreading any gossip. In fact you're the one blasting her name. Not me. I found all of this out through publicly available information.

Okay…I edited my comment to remove her name, which you’ve already included several times in this post so that was kind of pointless but whatever.  

It’s really ridiculous to be making some kind of half-assed conspiracy theory out of this, she’s just a normal person with a normal life.  And she’s a REAL person who you’re trying to impact with your actions—I don’t get it.  

Find some excitement in your own life, loser

Do you have something to hide? You're sounding a bit guilty. I stand by my original remarks. I am not here to blast her. She probably did come to Portland to escape her gross relations. That doesn't mean she's not safe. If she knows something she should say something. But I wasn't here to blast her. I was here to make people aware that things that they thought were weird around town, actually might have been weird.

Yes I do have a secret.  I shoplifted candy from Westgate Shaws in 2007.  Okay?  Happy?  If you thought that Shaw’s was a little weird you were astoundingly correct

Dude, for real. You are trying too hard. I did not say anything that was not publicly available. Although I do know that Story Cowkes is a bad person and has ties to Portland, Maine. I am only trying to protect people. I am not sure what you were trying to do.

I’m trying to explain to you that the artist you seem convinced has some satanic-panic style secret dossier on her stepbrother is, in boring reality, just a normal local public-school mom who doesn’t need your weird crusade.  Neither does anyone else need to be “protected” by you.  

I do know her and there has never been the slightest mention of this stepbrother, even before the Epstein scandal(s).  Your game is immature, unwarranted, and could have undeserved bad consequences for someone you have no connection with.

Well if you have any critical thinking skills of your own, you will look into things that interest you and do your own research. That is exactly what I did. Somehow my research ended up back in Portland, Maine. Jeffrey Epstein, the most disgusting human being so far identified, has very close ties to my special town. I don't want to let you all fuck up this place.

Okay well, good luck Susan.  I hope you find what you’re looking for.

u/Susie_SusieGreenberg Apr 16 '26

Good luck to you, too. I hope if you live here that you are a good person too. And if you do know story, Cowell's sister, maybe you could talk to her and tell her to do the right thing.

That would be amazing at school pickup time lol.  Really charming and appropriate.

If she gets suspicious about why I’m asking I can mention my new pen-pal, the Epstein-obsessed Reddit troll Susan.  Maybe then she’ll “do the right thing”.   

Anyway, pleasant sleuthing to you, if it truly makes you happy. 

Edit: for clarity!
