Jeffrey Epstein once offered a prize for proof of an alleged claim against well-known physicist Stephen Hawking in the most recent discovery which is a part of an extensive collection of records made public as a result of a lawsuit filed by Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell.
Epstein allegedly offered Maxwell a reward in a 2015 email if she could find evidence to refute Giuffre's claims. He specifically brought up a rumoured allegation that Hawking had attended an "orgy" on the Virgin Islands, reported NDTV.
It's crucial to remember that Hawking has never been accused of any sex crimes before and that Giuffre has made no explicit accusations against him.
In March 2006, Hawking travelled to St Thomas for a science conference and paid a visit to Epstein's private Caribbean island, just before Epstein was charged.
Images from the occasion depict Hawking taking part in sexually abusive events on Epstein's island.
In addition, Epstein alleged in the same email that former President Bill Clinton had been wrongfully accused of something else. According to ABC, these documents were ordered to be unsealed in December by a federal judge in New York.
One of Epstein's accusers, Johanna Sjoberg, stated in court filings that Clinton "likes them young," a reference to girls. Clinton, on the other hand, has not objected to the documents' release, and his spokesperson underlined that he has not been charged with any crimes.
