Mega Editon: Roza Gilles And Brazilian Models And The Epstein trap They Fell Into (9/15/26)

Roza Gilles was an 18-year-old aspiring model from Uzbekistan when she came to the United States in 2009 and became financially indebted to MC2 Model Management for her visa and housing. She was offered weekend administrative work at Jeffrey Epstein’s Florida Science Foundation office in West Palm Beach while Epstein was supposedly serving his jail sentence under an extraordinarily permissive work-release arrangement. Gilles said that during one of her first encounters with Epstein, he ordered her to undress, and when she froze, another woman removed her blouse and bra. She later realized that the device on Epstein’s ankle was a monitoring bracelet and that the man abusing her was technically still an inmate.

Gilles’s account offers a disturbing illustration of how Epstein’s 2008 plea agreement and work-release privileges allowed him to continue operating in an environment filled with employees, vulnerable young women and even uniformed law-enforcement officers. She recalled seeing a sheriff at Epstein’s Palm Beach residence and concluding that Epstein was so protected that nothing she did could stop him. After eventually leaving his orbit, moving to New York and becoming financially independent, Gilles married, settled in the Midwest and became a fitness trainer. She is now speaking publicly in the hope that greater transparency will expose the people and institutions that enabled Epstein and finally deliver meaningful accountability for survivors.


Several Brazilian women have come forward describing how a modeling recruiter connected to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly attempted to recruit them while they were teenagers pursuing careers in the fashion industry. According to accounts gathered by journalists, French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, a longtime associate of Epstein, approached young women in Brazil and other parts of South America with offers of modeling opportunities abroad. One Brazilian woman said Brunel visited her family home when she was 16 to persuade her mother to allow her to travel for a modeling contest in Ecuador. At the time, the family believed the opportunity was legitimate, unaware of Brunel’s connections to Epstein. Investigators later found evidence that modeling agencies tied to Brunel were used to identify and recruit young women from South America and help arrange visas for them to travel to the United States.


The accounts form part of a broader picture of how Epstein’s network allegedly used the international modeling industry as a recruitment channel. Several women said they were approached with promises of fashion work, travel, or contests that could launch their careers, only later realizing they had been targeted by people linked to Epstein’s circle. Brunel, who worked closely with Epstein and received financial backing from him for the agency MC2 Model Management, was later arrested in France on accusations including rape of a minor and trafficking-related offenses. He denied wrongdoing but died in a Paris prison in 2022 before standing trial, leaving many of the allegations about his role in recruiting young women for Epstein unresolved in court.
