Sarah Ransome, best known for appearing in the Netflix documentary series ‘Epstein: Filthy Rich’ was arrested at her home in the Netherlands on Friday evening, September 4th.
Ransome states that she was 22 years old when she first encountered Jeffrey Epstein, during which time she was working as a high-end escort for the infamous Emperor’s Club, charging up to $10,000 for her services.
In 2016, when numerous women began filing lawsuits against Epstein’s estate, Ransome joined them, claiming that she had been kept a prisoner on his island and raped multiple times.
Yet Ransome’s credibility was shattered in 2019. In the frenetic days following Epstein’s arrest and death, she publicly alleged that she possessed compromising sex tapes involving high-profile figures including Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and Richard Branson. She attempted to sell these to numerous newspapers, demanding payment upfront before sending any proof of the existence of the tapes.
But within days the story collapsed. Ransome admitted that the tapes did not exist and that the claims were untrue.
Since then, she has also been found to have made false allegations against Professor Alan Dershowitz.
After blowing her significant compensation payouts, obtained through controversial Epstein-related lawsuits, Ransome has recently embarked on a campaign of extortion and harassment targeting a large number of individuals, from the King of the Netherlands and the creator of the video game Grand Theft Auto, to Lady Victoria Hervey, the nieces and nephews of the late Virginia Giuffre, and me.
As Ransome’s mental health began to spiral, ignored by the many journalists who previously profited from peddling her many false allegations, she first sent sinister threats to fellow Epstein accuser Juliette Bryant, relentlessly harassing her and accusing her of a long list of things that Bryant was entirely innocent of before disgracefully threatening to harm Bryant’s son.
She then focused on Sky Roberts Jr, a brother of the late Virginia Giuffre, to his wife Amanda Roberts, and to Giuffre’s former publicist, Dini Von Mueffling.
Ransome attached photographs of Mr Roberts’ partner and children, along with photographs of Mueffling, her family members, and her children, warning that they now ‘have targets on their backs’.
“I will come after your children,” she told them. “The fucking Ayatollah [the Supreme Leader of Iran] will be fucking terrified of me after what I do to you and your children.”
