In Their Own Words: Elizabeth Stein Discusses Her 3 Year Nightmare Within Epstein's Web (10/4/25)

In her interview, Elizabeth “Liz” Stein — who says she was trafficked, assaulted, and raped by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell over a three-year period — described how the recent court document releases have been deeply harmful and retraumatizing for survivors. She stressed that while many people may know broadly that survivors exist, the unsealing of “intimate details” of their experience can be emotionally devastating, and the constant media exposure feels like an assault on their healing. Stein also pushed back against framing the Epstein scandal as a political issue, insisting it is above all a criminal matter: sex trafficking must be confronted irrespective of party lines. She has called for unity among survivors, demanding that their voices be heard and taken seriously, and emphasized that accusing them of participating in a political “hoax” diminishes the gravity of what was inflicted on them. to contact me: [email protected] source: Epstein survivor recounts the meeting that changed everything
