Epstein was ‘protected’ by CIA and Trump, former Bodyguard Claims

Edwards shared details of an earlier conversation he had with Igor Zinoviev, Epstein’s Bodyguard of five years, who warned the lawyer to cool it on Epstein because the Sekscrreep reportedly had shady connections with the US government.

“[Zinoviev said] “You don’t know who you are messing with, and you really have to be careful,” Edwards told Palmeri in front of her podcast series, Broken: Jeffrey Epstein.

“You are on Jeffrey’s Radar and someone where Jeffrey pays a lot of attention, which is not good, you don’t want to be on Jeffrey’s Radar.”

According to Palmeri, Edwards replied: “And I said,” Well, give me some examples. I mean, who am I messing around? “And then he looked over the table and whispered three letters,” Cia. ” “

Zinoviev, a UFC hunter born in Russia, drove Epstein around for almost five years during the highlight of human trafficking, and he remembered his first assignment in 2008 during the short detention of the criminal-13 months in the prison of Palm Beach County with work issue was to visit the CIA headquarters in Virginia.

According to Edwards, Zinoviev told him that it was there that Epstein would take a week as the only private individual in the room. At the end of the class, someone gave him a book with a handwritten note.

Zinoviev was told that he should not read it and only deliver it to Epstein behind bars.

“Everyone there knew who he was. He is an important person. And I said,” Is he in the CIA? “Edwards recalled from their conversation.

Zinoviev replied, “I don’t know.”

According to former CIA officer John Sipher, however, the agency cannot use Americans unless they do volunteer work, and Epstein perhaps a “hyper-fixer”, someone with connections that can get into something, but Epstein would “be too risky to touch” because of his background.

Sipher told Edwards that the CIA could confirm whether Zinoviev and Epstein visited the head office in 2008, because every visitor is recorded.

“If they say there is no report, don’t believe them,” Sipher told the lawyer.

In 2008, Epstein argued guilty of the accusations of prostitution and request of prostitution with a minor under the age of 18. He got a blow around the wrist and sentenced to 18 months in a facility for minimum protection.

According to the agreement, Epstein would release under a regulation of the work in which he returned to the prison to sleep at night.
