Summary

Wexner transferred at least $56M to Maple Inc. (Epstein USVI entity) for $0 (zero consideration) and the townhome at 9 E 71st St Manhattan (~$77M) also for $0. These transfers constitute critical AML red flags. Wexner’s unlimited power of attorney spanning 16 years (1991-2007) and the ‘I was conned’ narrative have a credibility rating of 0.35/1.0. The most plausible theory [PROBABLE]: Epstein was a remunerated fixer/intermediary for services exceeding simple financial advice.
