Although he was convicted of soliciting a person under 18 for prostitution for an action more than five years ago, he is not a pedophile by any definition of that word. Despite being a friend of the family for more than a decade, I am embarrassed to admit I believed stories in the media that were proffered by a person claiming to have bccn an FBI agent, who in fact was not and a civil attorney from Florida who is serving 50 years in prison. Mr. Epstein has always been a kind and generous person to those around him and to those in need. I am truly sorry for my mischaracterization of him and any hurt that it may have caused.
