SA couple addresses Epstein allegations
SA couple Cathy Alexander and her husband Miles worked for years on Jeffrey Epstein’s controversial Little St James island and did not suspect anything untoward. Their names resurfaced last week in court documents made public in the high-profile trial of Epstein’s former girlfriend and personal assistant Ghislaine Maxwell. City Press reports that they stated that the Alexanders might have been aware of Epstein’s and Maxwell’s activities on his private island. A US judge ordered the documents to be made public as part of the evidence by Virginia Giuffre, a complainant in the case against Epstein, in her defamation suit against Maxwell. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in Epstein’s sexual exploitation of under-age girls. Miles Alexander (67) was the island’s manager from 1999 to 2007, while Cathy (68) was employed as Epstein’s personal house manager. The Alexanders said they had so far not given evidence in any court proceedings regarding the Epstein saga. Miles mentioned that they had only been asked, long after Epstein’s first arrest in 2005, to sign affidavits confirming that neither former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton nor her husband, former US President Bill Clinton, nor former US Vice-President Al Gore or his wife, Tipper, had visited Little St James. ‘I know that Bill Clinton was on one of Epstein’s planes, but while we were working there, he definitely wasn’t on the island,’ Miles said.
