More than two dozen women who say Jeffrey Epstein sexually assaulted them are seeking to join an effort to freeze his estate’s assets, with a victims compensation fund running out of cash.
Lawyers for the women, who are anonymous in the victims program, asked a judge Friday to let them join the request by U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George. They noted that the value of the late financier’s estate, reckoned at more than $600 million last year, had plummeted.
