In a shocking revelation, court documents unsealed on Wednesday suggest that renowned magician David Copperfield had dinner with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and some of his victims. The information came to light during a May 2016 deposition, where attorney Sigrid McCawley questioned an accuser of Epstein, Johanna Sjoberg, and Epstein’s former accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.
According to the documents, Sjoberg confirmed that she had met Copperfield after receiving a call from Epstein’s house inviting her to dinner. Upon arrival, she discovered another young girl she had never seen before. During the dinner, Copperfield reportedly performed magic tricks and claimed to be a friend of Epstein’s. The court document further reveals that Copperfield questioned Sjoberg about girls being paid to find other girls, but she denied having any specific details about it.
The revelation comes as a federal judge in New York ordered the release of previously redacted names from court documents related to a lawsuit against Maxwell. Among the names unveiled were former President Bill Clinton, his aide Doug Band, Prince Andrew, and French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel. It is important to note that the release of these names does not imply any wrongdoing on their part.
Jeffrey Epstein, who died while awaiting trial, had numerous high-profile connections, including former presidents, foreign prime ministers, and Prince Andrew. He also had ties to Hollywood stars, academics, and figures in the modeling and fashion industries. While some of the names were already known through other means, their inclusion in the lawsuit brings renewed attention to their association with Epstein.
It is worth mentioning that Copperfield had previously faced accusations of sexually assaulting a teen model in 1988. However, he has not commented on the recent allegations regarding his connection to Epstein.
As the story continues to unfold, it raises questions about the extent of Epstein’s network and the individuals involved. The unsealing of these court documents provides a glimpse into the complex web of relationships surrounding Epstein and his alleged crimes.
