Jeffrey Epstein was in some respects fastidious. As he managed an international sex-trafficking operation, the size of which is likely yet to be comprehended, he was careful that the young women in his orbit were sexually healthy — ready to be used for his purposes. The latest cache of emails, texts, and other documents released by the DOJ reveals that Epstein had an established system for making sure the women were tested for STDs, prescribed birth-control pills, and inoculated against HPV. As a part of this system, he regularly made payments to at least three New York City gynecologists, as well as a dermatologist and his own personal physician.

For the moment, it’s difficult to tell whether the involved women, whose names are largely redacted by the DOJ, are among those who have been considered victims. It’s also unclear, to varying degrees, if the named physicians were aware of Epstein’s criminal activity, though by the time of the earliest relevant messages, he had been convicted for solicitation of a minor. What is certain, however, is that Epstein paid for many of these medical appointments directly via check or credit card. It is also clear, from messages with his close contacts, that he was sending women to gynecologists and other physicians so frequently that it was common knowledge among some in his circle. In one December 12, 2012, email, an associate whose name is redacted but whose email address matches that of Mark Epstein, Jeffrey’s brother, asks Epstein, “Do you remember the name of the Gynocologist [sic] that you used to send your victims to?”

“Many years ago you used to send them to a gyno in NY who once commented something to the effect that you were keeping him in business singlehandedly,” the sender writes. The message does not name the specific physician, but the new files offer potential clues about the involvement of a number of doctors.

In one 2015 email, when an unidentified person asks which gynecologists Epstein regularly uses for “the girls,” Epstein’s former staff member Bella Klein replies, “S. Yale and Romoff.” “S. Yale” appears to be Suzanne Yale, an OB/GYN who practiced in Manhattan for more than 45 years. She previously shared an office with fellow OB/GYN Adam Romoff, who is cited in the emails as the physician for a number of the women associated with Epstein, including Karyna Shuliak, his longtime girlfriend and reported beneficiary of his $100 million fortune.

2. How could a gynecologist being "singlehandedly" kept in business

not know that Epstein was involved in pimping and/or trafficking? I am sickened daily by the extent of the complicity and purposeful ignoring of these criminals and their crimes.

3. i'll bet he had life insurance on the girls as well

6. The reputable companies

would never issue policies but it would be possible to find not so reputable companies or to have one setup to serve the purpose. Probably backed with dirty money.

7. insurance is almost respectable in this mob.

4. I believe those gynos were covered by

"duty to report" and there is no way that they could conclude nobody was being abused when so many girls were coming in and the bill was always paid by Epstein.

5. They need to lose their medical licenses

If still practicing, and they should be criminally charged regardless.
