"In this busyness I feel like fisherman some time I cache quick, some time no fish. I had 2 girls from Sweden, a Slovakian, 2 French and the Russian, with whom you spoke and a beautiful Chinese named [redacted]. At least five of the girls he had met were just 16 or 17, and there was a 15-year-old girl from France whose parents were happy for her to start modelling."
"Analysis of the correspondence between Epstein and one of his many fixers reveals the work that went into setting up appointments with a constant stream of young women in the decade after his release from prison on charges of procuring a child for prostitution. The modelling industry was a useful route for Epstein to meet young women, and he took a consistently close interest in the low-level business of finding new faces."
"The files show Siad as one of Epstein's most loyal correspondents, remaining in regular contact with him until months before the financier's death, receiving wired payments from Epstein apparently in lieu of expenses incurred. Over the course of a decade he wrote regularly with updates on the progress of his scouting visits to villages in eastern Europe, islands in Sweden, central Havana."
Correspondence between Jeffrey Epstein and model scout Daniel Siad, released in Department of Justice documents, reveals how Epstein leveraged the modeling industry to meet young women following his 2008 prison release for child prostitution charges. Siad regularly scouted locations across Europe, Cuba, and Scandinavia, identifying girls as young as 15 and 16 for Epstein. The scout documented his recruitment efforts in detailed emails, describing specific nationalities and ages of potential models. Epstein maintained close involvement in the low-level scouting operations while cultivating relationships with senior industry figures. Siad received wire payments from Epstein for expenses and remained a loyal correspondent for over a decade until Epstein's death, demonstrating an organized system for identifying vulnerable young women.
