Melania director Brett Ratner pictured cuddling woman in Epstein files
The director of the new documentary on US First Lady Melania Trump has appeared embracing a young woman in images released by the US Department of Justice on Friday.
...
When the images were taken remains unclear, though they appear to have been taken in the same location as photos of Ratner and Epstein alongside the late French modelling agent Jean-Luc Brunel that were released in December.
...
Brunel, who co-founded French modelling agency Karin Models in 1977 and MC2 Model Management in the US with funding from Epstein, was found hanged in his Paris prison cell in 2022 in an apparent suicide.
He had been under investigation on suspicion of the rape of minors and trafficking of minors for sexual exploitation. Prosecutors suspected him of transporting young women for Epstein.

You can, of course, add "dead in a prison cell" for the fates of the non-American Epstein friends. Or "live, in a low-security prison", for his British co-criminal.
