Epstein victim urged FBI to look at Trump twice

by Cameron Henderson
The Telegraph (London), July 21, 2020

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s accusers twice urged the FBI to look at Donald Trump following an alleged incident with him.

In 1996, Maria Farmer, told police she was groped by Epstein and his former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell. Ms Farmer, who worked for Epstein as an art advisor, was one of the first people to accuse the paedophile financier of sexual misconduct.

When reporting the incident she raised concerns about the high-profile individuals surrounding Epstein, including Mr Trump and Bill Clinton, she told the New York Times.

Ms Farmer told the newspaper she had been troubled by a 1995 incident with the then-Apprentice star, in which she met Mr Trump for the first time after being summoned to Epstein’s Manhattan offices late one evening.

She claimed the impromptu meeting took place just before she began working for Epstein. Ms Farmer said she arrived in running shorts and that Mr Trump hovered over her and stared at her legs, making her feel scared.

She said Epstein then entered the room and said: “No, no. She’s not here for you,” before the pair left together. Ms Farmer claimed she then heard Mr Trump say he thought she was 16 years old.
