Epstein used modelling agent to recruit girls, Brazilian women tell BBC

AI Summary
A BBC News Brasil investigation found evidence that Jeffrey Epstein's associate, modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, used his agency connections to recruit young women and girls from South America for Epstein. The investigation revealed that Brunel sought out young women, arranged visas for them to travel to the US, and sponsored visas through his agencies even for women who did no modeling work. One Brazilian woman stated her visa was arranged solely to visit Epstein. Another woman who participated in a modeling competition organized by Brunel in Ecuador in 2004, when she was 16, recalled Brunel's odd behavior and focus on young Brazilian girls. Brunel, who was accused of rape and sexual assault, died in prison.
