2nd Child Sex Lawsuit Filed Against NY Billionaire
WEST PALM BEACH (CBS4) ―
Another woman has come forward claiming she was sexually abused by a New York billionaire.
The unidentified woman claims at the age of 16 she was brought to Jeffrey Epstein's Palm Beach mansion and paid $200 for a massage. Instead, she claims Epstein abused her. She's filed a suit in federal court seeking $50 million in damages from Epstein.
Just last month another teenage girl made similar claims against against the money manager when she filed her suit against him.
Epstein also faces a felony charge of solicitation of prostitution. A conviction could send him to prison for five years.
