On June 6, 2019, Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on suspicion of sexually abusing several girls between 2002 and 2005.
Together with his ex-girlfriend, he is suspected of having recruited underage girls into prostitution, which is mainly said to have taken place on his privately owned island in the Caribbean.
It is one of the world's most notorious sex crime scandals.
Epstein's circle included well - known names such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and Prince Andrew.
The British prince was pulled into the fray after one of Epstein's victims accused him of sexual abuse.
This led him to relinquish all external information to the British Royal Family, despite his refusal.
One year after Epstein committed suicide, Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested.
On December 30, 2021, she was convicted by the court of having recruited and "taught" girls to sexually satisfy Epstein.
