Jeffrey Epstein, billionaire and former friend of Duke of York, 'charged with sex trafficking'

https://ift.tt/2S484k6 effrey Epstein, the Duke of York’s former friend, has reportedly been charged with the sex trafficking of minors. Epstein, a wealthy financier accused of sexually abusing dozens of teenage girls, struck a controversial plea deal in 2008 under which he served only 13 months in jail, and reached financial settlements with many of his alleged victims. The plea deal allowed Epstein, who is now 66, to plead guilty to lesser state charges of soliciting and procuring a person under age 18 for prostitution. The deal also required he reach financial settlements with dozens of his once-teenage victims and register as a sex offender. The 66-year-old, who had been friendly with Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton, was arrested in the New York area on Saturday and was in federal custody, according to the New York Times and the Daily Beast. He is expected to appear before a federal magistrate on Monday to face charges involving allegations that date to the 2000s on Monday, the websites reported. The arrest comes seven months after he reached a last-minute settlement in a long-running case in Florida that could have led to allegations relating to the duke being aired in court. Bradley Edwards, a lawyer who represented the alleged victims 11 years ago, was accusing Epstein of trying to ruin his reputation. Had the case gone ahead it would have allowed alleged victims to finally testify in open court. Those women could have included Virginia Roberts, who in court papers in 2015 claimed she was kept as a "sex slave" by Epstein, and that she had sex with the Duke when she was 17. In 2015 sources close to the Duke told The Telegraph he categorically denied the accusation, and that he had been a "fool" over his friendship with Epstein.

Friends in all the wrong places

https://ift.tt/2BVSIXZ Striding past the glistening rows of duty-free liquor, watches and perfume, the two international travellers moved like men who could fight. Richard ''Gelly'' Gelemanovic had broad shoulders and a confident gait, while his companion, convicted heroin trafficker Amad ''Jay'' Malkoun, had a physique honed during his 16-year stint in prison. It was July 3, 2003, and Malkoun was recently out of jail, having gained public notoriety after being charged in 1988 as a key player in the state's biggest drug syndicate, which had been busted with $5.5 million of heroin. Amad 'Jay' Malkoun was described by police as 'a powerful standover man'. The federal police who were secretly watching Malkoun at Melbourne's international airport described him in a report as ''a powerful stand-over man … actively involved in the Melbourne drug trade''. The profession of his travelling companion, the man Jay called ...

Kim Constable – Irish leader of NXIVM – jokes about working out in prison; shows results of badass workouts

http://bit.ly/2WTRg0f Kim Constable, 39 – one of Sara Bronfman’s ‘girls’ – is the leader of NXIVM in Ireland. She lives in Belfast and is also the leader of Rainbow Cultural Garden there. According to a source, she recruited at least one underage teen girl who was almost shipped to the USA with Allison Mack for the branding iron of DOS. Fortunately, the teen girl – with her mother’s help – escaped at the last minute. But not before there was a little violence and the threat of something truly sinister – which frightened the girl. I will tell more of that story later. For now, let us say hello to Kim. In addition to her NXIVM work, she is a vegan body-builder and sells courses on how to look like her. Her husband is a famous ex-athlete, Ulster rugby player Ryan Constable (46) who owns a sports management company. They have four children: Corey (12), Kai (11), Miya (8) and Jack (6). At one time, they all slept in the same 18-foot bed together. I am not clear where the Rainbow nannies sle...

The CIA’s Blade-Wielding 'Flying Ginsu' Missile Strikes Again

https://ift.tt/38qz98C The Hellfire R9X missile is a modified Hellfire anti-tank missile. In order to reduce the chances of civilian casualties, it trades an explosive warhead for steel blades. The weapon is used by the CIA in targeted assassinations and was apparently used this past weekend in Syria. A new unique new missile designed by the CIA in targeted killings was reportedly used again, this time in Syria. The Hellfire R9X, also known as the “Flying Ginsu” after the knives advertised in campy infomercials, kills its enemies by flying directly at them, popping out several steel blades at the last moment to slice its targets into bits. The missile is used by the Central Intelligence Agency to target specific individuals without risk to nearby civilians and other noncombatants. The strike took place in Syria, against a minivan traveling between the towns of Azzaz and Afrin. The strike reportedly killed an Al Qaeda leader and two passengers, with a third passenger badly wounded. U.S....
