Epstein Victim Breaks Silence, Describes Life-Threatening Assault

An Epstein survivor has come forward with an account of abuse, alleging she was abused by Jeffrey Epstein during a flight to the Caribbean, where she said she was taken against her will.

​Juliette Bryant said she feared she was “going to die” on a private island in the Caribbean where she said she was recruited by Epstein in 2002. Bryant alleged Epstein repeatedly exploited her on the island.

​Speaking to Sky News, Bryant, 43, said she believed her “dreams were all coming true” when she was recruited by a group of women at age 22, saying she thought she would be able to provide for her family through modelling work.

Bryant revealed that she was first flown to New York and was told she would be flying to Africa with Epstein for modeling assignments.

​“As the plane took off, he started forcibly t------- me in between my legs, and I just freaked out, and I suddenly realized — oh my God, my family aren't going to see me again, these people might kill me,” she said.

​“I got such a fright, it was such a huge changing thing for me. I suddenly realized I had to be nice and be friendly, because I realized I was in great danger,” she said.

​The women who initially recruited her “laughed” at her situation, she alleged.

​“They saw, and they just laughed,” the survivor said. “I was really, really petrified. It really changed me, the whole thing, going through this. I just didn’t know what to do, and I really thought that I was going to die,” she said.

Bryant said she had “no way of getting away”.

“They had my passport, and by then we had landed on one of the Caribbean islands and were taken on a helicopter to his island, Little St James in the US Virgin Islands,” she said.

“There was just no way of getting away. I’m not strong enough to swim away. I wouldn't be able to swim off there,” she added, according to The Independent.

Bryant said she continues to experience trauma related to the abuse. “I look on Facebook, I see Epstein's face. I look at X, and I see Epstein's face. I look at the news, there it is again. You know, there are times when it's made me feel physically ill, to be honest, it is just constantly there, and there is no way of escaping it,” she said.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) recently said it has released all of the files required by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but lawmakers said the disclosure was insufficient.

The six-page letter names roughly 130 individuals linked to Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell. The list includes political figures such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, as well as several Hollywood celebrities, including Beyoncé, George Clooney, and Jay-Z. It also included the names of deceased persons, including Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, and Janis Joplin.
