Agent Jean-Luc Brunel is said to have worked as a model pimp for pedo billionaire Epstein for years. Among other things, he is said to have given Epstein three 12-year-old sisters as a “birthday present”. Now he has been found dead in his cell, like Epstein.
Former French model agent Jean-Luc Brunel was found hanged in his cell at La Santé prison in Paris on the night of Friday February 18th to Saturday February 19th. This was announced by the Paris public prosecutor. An investigation is being launched to determine the cause of death.
Jean-Luc Brunel has been accused by several former models of raping her. In June 2021, he was charged with “rape of a minor”. In December 2020 he was charged with “raping a minor” and “sexual harassment” in relation to two other women. He has been in custody since June. Death ends the proceedings against him. Brunel will take the secrets about Epstein and his girl trafficking ring to his grave.
Jean-Luc Brunel: Close friend of Epstein
The 76-year-old was suspected of having helped US billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who was also found dead in his cell in August 2019, for years as a model pimp. Brunel started his career as a scout and has worked with celebrities such as Jerry Hall, Sharon Stone and Monica Bellucci. Jean-Luc Brunel started the renowned agency Karin Models in 1978 and then went to the USA to found MC2 Model Management there. His name appeared in the early investigations into Epstein in 2007-2008. At the time, Florida police found incriminating evidence against him. In 2008 he visited Epstein in prison several times.
Virginia Giuffre, one of the lead plaintiffs in the Epstein affair, who has just reached a financial settlement with Prince Andrew, has claimed she was coerced into sexual activity by Brunel. Giuffre said Brunel provided the pedophile and other men with young models for sex. She also claims she was forced to have sex with Brunel at Epstein’s home. She also said that Brunel arranged a photo shoot with seven Russian girls, with Prince Andrew watching.
end of the procedure
Brunel is said to have fed Epstein models and “exotic teens”. He was accused, among other things, of raping 12-year-old triplets. He is said to have flown the three sisters to America so they could be misused by Epstein as a “birthday present”. In a 2015 affidavit, Giuffre testified that Epstein boasted that he “slept with over 1,000 of Brunel’s girls.”
Brunel was arrested at Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle airport in December 2020 as he was about to board a flight to Dakar. He himself had always protested his innocence.
