David Copperfield Accused Of Jeffrey Epstein Connection And Crimes
Magician David Copperfield knew that some “girls” in Jeffrey Epstein’s circle received financial incentives to recruit others. Although Epstein accuser Johanna Sjoberg made the revelation in a 2016 deposition, the information about Copperfield appears in newly unsealed documents in the lawsuit between Virginia Roberts Giuffre, another Epstein accuser, and Ghislaine Maxwell.
David Copperfield Connected To Jeffery Epstein
David Copperfield is among approximately 170 individuals connected to Jeffery Epstein, revealed in recently unsealed documents about the legal dispute between Virginia Roberts Giuffre, another accuser of Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell.
During her deposition for the lawsuit, Sjoberg said she met David Copperfield at a dinner hosted by Epstein.
Others Accused
Sjoberg, who had previously accused Prince Andrew of inappropriate behavior at Epstein’s residence, described David Copperfield as a friend of Jeffery Epstein who inquired whether she was aware of financial incentives offered for recruiting other girls.
Sjoberg noted the presence of Sarah Kellen, an employee of Epstein and Maxwell, and another young girl during the dinner.
Sjoberg explained that she had concerns about the other girl’s age, as she appeared younger than college-aged, but rationalized she could be a friend’s daughter for her own peace of mind.
The deposition, overseen by Sigrid McCawley, an attorney for Giuffre, sheds more light on Jeffery Epstein’s extensive sex trafficking network and how it survived for decades without repercussions.
Court Documents
In 2021, Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former girlfriend and associate, was convicted in a trial for trafficking and sexual abuse, serving a 20-year sentence.
The release of these court documents, which place David Copperfield at Jerry Epstein’s home, is ongoing, with additional revelations expected on January 4.
David Copperfield’s representatives have not released any statement in response to the unsealed documents related to Jeffery Epstein. Copperfield is the stage name of American magician David Seth Kotkin, considered one of the most successful and iconic illusionists in the history of magic.
David Copperfield’s Performances
Over the years, he has achieved several awards for his contributions to the art of magic. David Copperfield’s performances often involve elaborate illusions, like walking through the Great Wall of China, levitating over the Grand Canyon, and making the Statue of Liberty disappear.
His career began at a young age, and he quickly gained fame for his theatrical approach to magic.
The Magic of David Copperfield
The magician has also been involved in television specials, including The Magic of David Copperfield, which was widely popular in the 1980s and 1990s. As one of the highest-paid magicians, Copperfield earned approximately $46 million in 2020. He also holds a residency at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and owns 11 private islands in the Bahamas, which are available for rent.
In addition to his magical performances, David Copperfield is known for his philanthropic work and has contributed to various charitable causes. However, his alleged knowledge of Jeffery Epstein’s criminal activities will likely tarnish his image and reputation. Epstein, a financier and convicted sex offender, faced severe allegations of sex trafficking and abuse of underage girls.
Jeffrey Epstein’s Crimes
His criminal activities came to light in the mid-2000s, leading to legal troubles. Jeffery Epstein was accused of operating a sex trafficking ring, luring vulnerable girls to his residences under the guise of employment opportunities and then exploiting them for sexual purposes.
In 2019, new federal charges were brought against Epstein in New York, accusing him of sex trafficking and conspiracy.
However, before facing trial, Jeffery Epstein was found dead in his jail cell in what was officially ruled as a suicide. The lawsuit, investigation and fallout from Epstein’s crimes continue to have far-reaching implications for those, like David Copperfield, with ties to the financier. Source: Business Insider
