Epstein emails show he helped arrange White House visit for Woody Allen

NEW YORK (AP) — In 2015, Woody Allen and his wife, Soon-Yi Previn, went on a trip to Washington, D.C. With the help of their friend Jeffrey Epstein, they were able to tour the White House.

Allen’s friendship with Epstein has been known for years, but emails in the huge trove of records released by the Justice Department in recent days illustrate that relationship in new depth.

The filmmaker, his wife and Epstein were neighbors in New York City, and the three dined together often, records show. They offered each other emotional support during periods when they were being criticized in the media. They commiserated about being accused — unfairly, they told each other — of sexual misconduct.

And in 2015, Epstein used his connections to another friend who had been in President Barack Obama’s administration to help the couple get a White House tour.

but, they had us all fooled!

As bad as they are, Allen is on his own level.

The recorded phone call with Mia Farrow and Allen where she’s confronting him about their seven year-old’s vaginal injuries that HE caused is one of the saddest and most despicable things I’ve ever heard. When she asks him “how could you do that?”, he’s silent.

Imprisonment isn’t enough for someone who does such things to a child.
