Woman says Epstein forced her to have sex with former PM Barak
Court filings by US lawyer Alan Dershowitz revealed Tuesday that a woman had named former prime minister Ehud Barak as one of a number of important men she was forced to have sex with by Jeffrey Epstein.
Lawyers for Virginia Roberts Giuffre had asked a court in Florida not to allow Dershowitzs team access to sealed records as part of Dershowitzs defamation case against her for saying she was forced to have sex with him while she was a teen, the Miami Herald reported, as they said they were concerned he would distort the information or use it out of context.
However, during the course of the hearing, Dershowitzs attorney Howard Cooper said in court that the team had in fact already obtained some of the depositions and that Dershowitz identified Barak as well as L Brands and Victorias Secret owner Leslie Wexner as two of the men Giuffre says she was trafficked to by Epstein, a wealthy financier convicted of sex crimes and suspected of many more, the Herald reported.
Giuffre has also alleged that she was forced to have sex with former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barack [sic], the filing read in response to the claims against Dershowitz. Giuffre has offered no proof other than her uncorroborated word.

Yeah. He was my first thought... Especially after it was revealed he's in cahoots with Trump

Ehud Barak, former PM of Israel, was proven to have visited Epstein at least 30 times.

This account makes me deeply troubled by the state of the world, and by humanity.

Just saying we've never had an explanation for why David Cameron resigned early

I agree with your last sentence, but, as per Ms. volestrangler, it probably doesn't apply to Cameron.
