How many non-intelligence agents do you think could get an Austrian passport under a fake name and use it to travel the world?

From NBC News, "Jeffrey Epstein used foreign passport with fake name to enter Saudi Arabia: prosecutors":
Jeffrey Epstein used a foreign passport with a fake name to enter several countries in the 1980s including the United Kingdom, Spain and Saudi Arabia, federal prosecutors said Wednesday.

The questionable travel document was found inside a safe — along with $70,000 in cash and 48 loose diamonds — in the New York City home of the wealthy financier and accused sex trafficker. It contained a photo of Epstein with a different name and listed his place of residence as Saudi Arabia, according to prosecutors.

Epstein's lawyers filed court papers Tuesday claiming he obtained the Austrian passport in 1982 for "personal protection" to be presented to "potential kidnappers, hijackers, or terrorists." The lawyers said Epstein's Jewish faith and substantial wealth made him a target while traveling in the Middle East.

Epstein's attorneys also said that the government provided no evidence that he ever used the passport.

But Wednesday, prosecutors did just that.

"In fact, the passport contains numerous ingress and egress stamps, including stamps that reflect use of the passport to enter France, Spain, the United Kingdom, and Saudi Arabia in the 1980s," the court papers say.

Prosecutors added that Epstein's lawyers have yet to explain some of the basic questions concerning the passport, including how he obtained it and whether he's a citizen of another country.
Here's the filing:



It's worth noting that Judge Richard M. Berman is a Clinton-appointee who has already allowed Epstein to keep his finances under seal and hidden from the public.


From The Inquisitr, "Jeffrey Epstein Granted Ability To Keep Finances Sealed By Judge Richard Berman":
CNBC reports that on Thursday Judge Richard Berman ordered accused sex trafficker and registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein be allowed to file information about his finances under seal. The move comes just as financial experts are theorizing that the alleged billionaire's money likely comes from blackmailing powerful individuals with an underage sex scheme, per The Inquisitr.

According to Epstein's defense lawyers, the seal was requested due to fear that the information in the financial disclosures would continue to fuel the media focus on the case, which is already high-profile given Epstein's ties to President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton.

When seeking bail, defendants in criminal cases typically file financial disclosures listing their assets. Epstein is attempting to be released on bond, but Berman must still determine the bond amount — if any — which he will calculate using the now-sealed disclosures. CNBC suggests that Epstein's bond could be secured by a mortgage on the 66-year-old's $77-million-dollar Manhattan townhouse.
