Jeffrey Epstein planned to leave his gal pal $50 million, a near 33-carat diamond, his Upper East Side townhouse – and his infamous “Pedo Island,” according to a will he signed two days before his death.
Karyna Shuliak, the pedophile’s last known girlfriend, was among at least 44 beneficiaries the disgraced financier planned to leave an estimated $288 million fortune, new files released by the Justice Department show.
The money, as well as his portfolio of international properties, didn’t make it to Epstein’s intended recipients though.
The estate passed to a trust which is now being used to compensate victims and pay off legal fees and other expenses, with just $127 million remaining and tied up in U.S. Virgin Island probate courts.
Epstein signed off and executed the will on Aug. 8, 2019 – two days before being found dead by suicide in a Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
The pedophile’s lawyer Darren Indyke signed the will on Aug. 18, 2019.
Shuliak, a Belarus native, also stood to gain other properties beyond the townhouse and infamous land in Little Saint James known as “Pedo Island.”
The will also called for her to get Esptein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico and other properties in Paris and Palm Beach.
Epstein left a handwritten message on the will, saying the ring – described as “flanked by baguette-cut diamonds mounted in platinum” – was “in contemplation of marriage,” the Daily Mail first reported.’
Other planned benefactors included convicted Epstein madam Ghislaine Maxwell and his brother Mark Epstein, who were both supposed to get $10 million.
