- A manager faxed President Trump urging a ban, and former employees say he replied it was a good letter and told staff to “kick him out.”
- Mar-a-Lago had been sending young spa employees to Epstein’s Palm Beach home for services booked through his spa account, with Ghislaine Maxwell setting appointments.
- Former employees say the complaint was shared with human resources but was not reported to the Palm Beach Police Department.
