He had power and girls

Sometimes you wonder what needs to happen to get someone where they belong. Countless testimonies from models accusing him of abuse of power and rape, photos of him and Ghislaine Maxwell on the private island of ‘best friend’ Jeffrey Epstein, a revealing documentary, 60 Minutes, showing his misconduct. But in the meantime... Jean-Luc Brunel is happily hopping around.

Who is Jean-Luc Brunel?
A 74-year-old Frenchman, who had a career as a model scout. He did this quite successfully. He discovered Christy Turlington, Sharon Stone, and Mila Jovovich. In the late ‘90s, he was already removed from his position because he couldn't keep his hands to himself, shall I say. He fled to America where his life took a, for him, positive turn, because there he met Ghislaine Maxwell who thought: this man could be useful for Jeffrey and me and introduced him to his future best friend Jeffrey Epstein. Because when you say power and girls, Epstein pulls out his wallet. So Jean Luc recruited models for parties and events and danced happily along in Jeffrey Epstein's abuse paradise. According to Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre Roberts (the woman who also claims to have been abused by Prince Andrew), Brunel supplied more than a thousand girls to Epstein, who then had sex with all of them.

When Epstein was arrested, Brunel went into hiding for safety but later resurfaced. By the way, they both had a house on the chic Parisian Avenue Hoche in the 8th arrondissement.

Brunel has been married twice. It won't surprise you I: they were both models. It won't surprise you II: he is divorced from both.

Jean-Luc Brunel was recently in the news because Dutch model Thysia Huisman published a book in which she described the night he raped her and how that affected her life.

To be continued. At least, I hope so. Without a happy ending. For Brunel.
