I Talked With Epstein Survivor Rina Oh

An update on what I wrote on Saturday about Virginia Giuffre and her tragic suicide.

I was incorrect when I wrote that the litigation between Epstein survivor, New Jersey-based artist, Rina Oh and Virginia was over.

Oh herself reached out to me, and her lawyer, Alexander M. Dudelson, emailed me: “Rina Oh’s claim under the Adult Victim Act was reinstated after the Appellate Division – First Judicial Department unanimously reversed Justice Arthur F. Engoron. The Court found that the START Act does not insulate Ms. Giuffre from civil liability for her intentional acts against Ms. Oh.

Right now, each of the respective courts have been divested of jurisdiction until an estate fiduciary can be substituted as a party in the place of the decedent. As soon as one is appointed, we intend on proceeding with the adjudication of Ms. Oh’s meritorious claims.”

In fact, I’ve learned that on April 7, just a couple weeks before her death on April 24th, Giuffre experienced a legal setback. The timing is important, because it was just two days before she was also reportedly due in family court in Australia over her messy divorce. So she was under a lot of pressure apart from her family troubles, which were severe. She had lost custody of her three children and her estranged husband had a restraining order against her.
