The New York Post today checks in with mysterious money manager and massage devotee Jeff Epstein, and comes back with the re-assuring news that, despite rumors that he might try to fight the charges against him, Epstein is “resolute” about his plans to plead guilty to a single charge of soliciting underage prostitution. Epstein is expected to get an 18-month prison term.
Meanwhile, more bizarre stories about Epstein continue to emerge. Last week, the Daily News’ Rush & Molloy reported that Epstein allegedly used his friendship with Tommy Mottola to flatter young girls with a chance at a recording contract.
Bear Stearns, where Epstein got his start in finance, could not be reached for comment no matter how hard we stared at the phone and tried to dial it with our minds.

Thanks again to Dealbreaker.com for making my day richer, brighter! I love the fact that this story is posted next to an at&t ad. I imagine someone at DB has read the recent Economist article about prostitution/massage ads, etc. ? Who is more involved with underage prostitution, Jeffrey Epstein or at&t?... Jeffrey Epstein is being railroaded by a confused and confusing society. It's time for the USA to reconsider it's laws regarding sexual conduct. Are they going to register him for life as a "predator"? Are they going to let him watch Jenna Jameson movies in jail? Can I use his apartment while he's away? What will he do when he gets out of jail? How can I make some money out of this? I'm sorry...I love you guys...

@ 50,000 sq ft I'm not sure his UES place can still be called an apartment by any reasonable definition of the word.
