Epstein investigator tracked down and assaulted by mystery man: report

A British journalist who had investigated Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell for years revealed that she had been tracked down by a supposed private investigator while in public, bribed with drugs and cash and then sexually assaulted, The Guardian exclusively reported Monday.

That journalist was Lucia Osborne-Crowley, who in 2024 published “The Lasting Harm,” a behind-the-scenes account of Maxwell’s 2021 trial on sex-trafficking charges, including exclusive interviews with alleged victims of Epstein and Maxwell.
