Jean-Luc Brunel was ready to testify against Jeffrey Epstein in 2016 in exchange for immunity from his own alleged crimes against women and girls.
But when Epstein heard of Brunels plans, he reached out to attorney and former Obama White House counsel Kathryn Rummler, and Brunel went quiet, according to The Wall Street Journal. Epstein would walk free for three more years.
Recently released files from the Justice Department show that Brunel, a high-powered modeling scout, was working with lawyers representing Epstein victims in February 2016.
One of Epsteins bfs, Jean Luc Brunel, has helped get girls. He is wanting to cooperate, according to a federal prosecutors notes. Brunel is afraid of being prosecuted.
Separate files indicate that Epstein found out about Brunels potential move against him in May 2016, and sent a typo-ridden email to an alleged girlfriend, former Obama White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler.
I spoke to Mic=el Kodesch. jean lucs friend.? he said that boies&=bsp; got jean luc full immunity and was taking him in to the us attny nxt t=esday. last week they said it was this week, &=bsp; he asked for 3 million dollars so that jean luc . would no= go in, [sic] Epstein wrote, indicating that Brunel was offered $3 million by someone to keep quiet. Neither he nor Jean luc lawyer titone are capable of t=lling the truth. howver he said that jean luc was worried=that if he didnt go in on tuesday they woudl arrest him.

(3,606 posts)4. Epstein was blackmailing the most powerful perverts in the world while selling leverage to multiple security agency's
MI6, KGB/FSB/SVR, Mossad, FBI/CIA/DEA, Interpol amongst others were allegedly all utilizing his giant mass production honeypot rape pedo fest to leverage intel and recruit assests, many via blackmail, and were independently playing Epstein against himself. He was just too arrogant to realize that fact. The rapist thought he was the house, all these sick fucks came to play and the house always wins, right? He was destined to be knocked off from day one. IMO
