(RepublicanWire.org) – Financier John Bryan said that Epstein, who died in 2019 in prison while awaiting trial after trafficking hundreds of young girls into sex work, made his vast wealth through extorting rich people.
John Bryan believes paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s ultimate aim was to extort money out of the Queen by blackmailing Prince Andrew.
He claims Epstein, who lured hundreds of vulnerable young girls into his sex trafficking ring over a 30-year period, would befriend rich and powerful men, then blackmail them into paying him money to remain silent. ‘It was just an extortion plot,’ he claimed.
Mr Bryan, who has been involved in the world of finance his whole life and knows some of the men involved, said: “People always ask how Epstein made his money. He was supposed to be this tax wizard. But it was all a con.”
“He blackmailed rich men and then made them pay to avoid scandal,” Bryan said. “He made hundreds of millions of dollars this way.”
“Epstein tried to lure Andrew into his web, but I believe his ultimate mark was the Queen.”
Prince Andrew’s relationship with Epstein has been under scrutiny for years, but especially since a bombshell 2019 interview with Emily Maitlis in which he tried to defend the friendship.
Bryan added, “I believe Andrew is innocent. If he genuinely was involved in ‘orgies’ as has been alleged, then Epstein would have used that to try and bribe the Queen into paying out millions to protect her family.”
Epstein was also connected with the Duke of York through their friendship with Maxwell. Andrew withdrew from public royal life after a civil sex assault case was brought against him by Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of having sex with her when she was a teenager at multiple locations including Epstein’s New York home.
The duke has denied the accusations, and the case ended in a reported eight-figure settlement.
