About this episode
Epstein's victims were routinely presented with non-disclosure agreements drafted not by Epstein himself but by elite law firms whose names appear on the document headers. These NDAs contained penalty clauses, liquidated damages provisions, and language so expansive that victims believed speaking to law enforcement would expose them to lawsuits.Some NDAs were signed by minors without legal representation. This episode examines the actual NDA language, identifies the law firms that drafted them, explains which provisions were legally enforceable versus which were designed purely to intimidate, and asks whether the attorneys who drafted NDAs for a known sex offender's underage victims committed ethical violations.Sources for this episode are available at: https://epsteinfiles.fm/?episode=ep116About The Epstein FilesThe Epstein Files is an AI-generated podcast analyzing the 3.5 million pages released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA).
