Survivors File $6 Million Lawsuit Against Jeffrey Epstein Estate Over 2019 Child Pornography Collection

In a new civil action, more than 40 former victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse are suing his estate for $6 million. The claim centers on a catalog of sexualized images of children—known as the “modeling book”—that investigators seized in 2019. Several of the plaintiffs were identified in that collection. The lawsuit seeks compensation for the trauma endured and aims to hold the estate accountable for the distribution of the illicit material. If successful, the case could compel the estate to disgorge funds and may set a precedent for how estates of convicted sex offenders are held financially responsible for their victims’ suffering.
