What's The Status Of Epstein's Island And Airplane?.......

Just curious? I don't believe that I've read or heard anything about a resolution to the private island or the plane that he owned. Have they both been sold or are they still a part of his estate that perhaps has not been resolved as of yet?

Has any news organization ever visited the island and photographed it for our viewing? I'm curious if a video is available to see what he had on the island?

Also - I've heard the expression 'what's in a name'. I hear that the plane was called the "Lolita Express".
Kinda makes one wonder why it was named such.

I suspect that the estate had to be liquidated to pay these damages/settlements

and it said His island was in the US Virgin Islands. Think it might have been a date line or similar show

On edit. Think it was a documentary called Filthy Rich

in 2024.

I was under the impression he had bought it, but maybe he was just leasing it??

Was he buying/leasing at market rates/prices?

Or, since they were such good friends was it a SWEETHEART deal?
