From Italy with love: a Russian Winter Olympian as part of Epstein's global network

The 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, an underage Olympian, Jeffrey Epstein, Terje Rød-Larsen, Zubair Khan, crypto, law firms, banks in France, Monaco and Switzerland: this story, which may has begun 2006 at the Olympic snowboard competitions, has many elements, even a potential FSB/GRU honey trap.

"I advertised PA positions for you and it was 'willingly and knowingly, indirectly, putting girls in danger'… it was the price for Berkeley I guess."

Email from a Russian participant in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Italy to Jeffrey Epstein, immediately before his final arrest in 2019, after a decade of multifaceted relationships

She was one of those prodigies that everyone always talks about at the Olympics. At just 16 years old, she was one of the youngest participants at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino. That was exactly 20 years ago. She may now live in Miami, does something with crypto, and has deactivated or made private some of her social media accounts since she appeared relatively extensively in the Epstein Files.

It may even be that the story of her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein began at the 2006 Winter Olympics. The accreditation you see in the collage above can also be found in the Epstein Files. After I reported once again last Saturday on Trump's special envoy Paolo Zampolli and also mentioned the two IOC members who appear in the Epstein Files, attentive readers pointed out this Olympic accreditation to me.

What is this document doing in the files?

The Olympic accreditation of an underage Russian woman?
