The Jeffrey Epstein revelations keep on coming and coming as this whole sordid affair has literally become the story that will never die. Now new information has come to light about the rapist pedophile’s relationship with celebrities and VIPs like the former Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Barak and Woody Allen. Meanwhile, private equity billionaire Stephen Deckoff told Forbes that he bought a pair of islands once owned by Jeffrey Epstein for $60 million where Deckoff plans to build a 25-room luxury resort.
The Wall Street Journal revealed what is being described as a trove of documents that show numerous celebrities, businessmen and politicians continued to be friends with Jeffrey Epstein even after his 2008 conviction for solicitation of a minor. These people include Leon Black, who was forced out of his position as the head of Apollo Global Management over his suspicious business dealings with Epstein. Black is now caught up in numerous litigation related to allegations of his own sexual misconduct.
Longtime Bard College president Leon Botstein was another person who allegedly hung out with Jeffrey Epstein.

As for Woody Allen, who is no stranger himself to allegations of sexual misconduct with minors, Jeffrey Epstein’s staff reportedly ordered flourless chocolate cakes and Beck’s beer specifically for the “Annie Hall” director when he was a guest of Epstein’s. The two are said to have watched a screening of the classic movie “Psycho” together.
Former U.S. Treasury Secretary and former President of Harvard Larry Summers is also listed as a former guest of Epstein’s.
As for Ehud Barak, the Wall Street Journal reported that the former Israeli prime minister visited Jeffrey Epstein as many as 30 times between 2013 and 2017 at his estates in Florida and New York. Barak was also reported to have flown with Epstein on the late businessman’s private plane on a flight from Palm Beach to Tampa in 2014. Many of the allegations made against Epstein and some of his famous friends include stories of incidents that allegedly took place during flights on his private plane.
Ehud Barak said that he only had business dealings with Jeffrey Epstein about a startup Barak was promoting at the time. The former general and politician told the Wall Street Journal that Epstein was a “a terrible version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” saying the man “seemed an intelligent, well-connected man with many interests, from science to geopolitics.”
Even the liberal and Israel-bashing Ivy League academic Noam Chomsky was listed as one of Jeffrey Epstein’s friends.
