Episode 2: The Money Machine Mazes
"The Money Machine," explores how Jeffrey Epstein built his wealth by acting as a financial gatekeeper for a few billionaires. It details his symbiotic relationship with retail mogul Leslie Wexner, who granted Epstein unprecedented power of attorney in 1991. This allowed Epstein to oversee $1.3 billion in stock sales and acquire his Manhattan mansion. After Wexner severed ties, Epstein relied on Leon Black, who paid him $158 million for "tax advice"—funds the US Virgin Islands alleged were explicitly used to finance his trafficking operations. What was the real nature of these relationships?
