New York Times reports on letters by Ehud Barak, Woody Allen and others written for Epstein’s 63rd birthday

The letters, written to Epstein by a number of high-profile individuals, were reportedly compiled as a birthday gift for Epstein’s 63rd birthday in 2016.

In one letter, former prime minister of Israel Ehud Barak and his wife wrote “there is no limit to your curiosity.”

“You are like a closed book to many of them but you know everything about everyone,” they wrote, describing Epstein as “A COLLECTOR OF PEOPLE”. They continued: “May you enjoy long and healthy life and may all of us, your friends, enjoy your table for many more years to come.”

    . . . The Times also reported that the home’s entryway featured framed prosthetic eyeballs, and that a suspended sculpture of a woman wearing a bridal gown and clutching a rope hung in the central atrium.

    According to the Times, a map of Israel drawn on a chalkboard that had the signature of former Israeli prime minister Barak was also in the home.
