Epstein Assistant Lesley Groff Playing Dumb About the Sex Trafficking…But Here’s the Truth

You can't play dumb and smart at the same time when it comes to the Epstein world. As assistant Lesley Groff prepares for her oversight interview next month, will she finally reveal the truth?

The mother-of-one from New Canaan Connecticut is an everyday villain in the Epstein operation, in my opinion.

Her efficiency as a meticulous personal assistant was vital in having the victims shuttled around the world. From Russia to Palm Beach, New York to Warsaw and Little Saint James Island to France.

Because Groff, who worked with American Express Travel to organise visas, stopovers and hotels for the females, also told authorities that organising massages was a daily duty.

But she had maintained she was “besmirched” in civil suits and had no idea Epstein was abusing girls and women.

If you want to know what The University of Texas graduate told the FBI in 2021, I recorded her interview (see video below).

For nearly two decades, Groff was at the centre of Epstein’s dark and twisted world.

She managed schedules, properties, staff and access. But her role went beyond administration. The administrator was a gatekeeper — one of the few people who understood how Epstein’s operation functioned from the inside.

• Groff is adamant she knew nothing about the sex trafficking or the abuse.

• From the beginning, massage was a part of Epstein’s day. She made massage appointments in New York.

• There were “lists” of masseuses. Money was sometimes messengered in envelopes.

  Moreover, there were black books with contacts everywhere.

• Victims interviewed by federal investigators allege that she scheduled “massages” in New York City where Epstein assaulted women, according to internal FBI summaries of those victim interviews.

• According to The Connecticut Times, Groff allegedly paid some of the victims or covered their school expenses, according to a December 2019 Department of Justice memo, which summarised almost 50 interviews conducted while investigating co-conspirators of Epstein's. Included was testimony from 38 victims, nine of whom referenced Groff.

• The Assistant Became a Millionaire Working for Epstein. During that time, she accumulated significant wealth and benefits tied to her role. She is listed as an Epstein unindicted co-conspirator and was mentioned in his will.

When the first allegations came out about the sex trafficking, she “gave him the benefit of the doubt that he had done his time…it was all blackmail.”

It's my opinion, as a former academic, that Lesley’s university did not teach much in the way of critical thinking.

“Working from home, being a good mother & wife were are the most important aspects in her life,” she said to the investigators.

But how could someone that close to Epstein’s world not know what was happening inside it?

I found a reference in the Department of Justice files concerning Groff organising laser hair removal for a “very hairy bikini line.”

That is not the kind of task typically handled by a conventional executive assistant. I worked as an assistant for a year in my 20s and I was never asked to organise personal grooming.

Organising intimate cosmetic treatments for young women — particularly within Epstein’s highly sexualised environment — blurred any normal professional boundaries.

Moreover, I would like to know the real story behind these two emails from the Epstein files. How many girls? What were their duties on the trip? How old were they?

But somehow I feel I will still be asking questions about this in 2060, or at least I think my tombstone will read: “Here lies Lisa. Sick of Epstein lies.”
