At the tender age of 16, Virginia Roberts Giuffre entered the pastel-hued Palm Beach mansion of Jeffrey Epstein, anticipating an opportunity to train as a massage therapist. Instead of receiving the fairy-tale education she hoped for, she was introduced to a harsh reality of psychological manipulation, where obedience was rewarded and disobedience was harshly punished.

In her memoir, “Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice,” Giuffre, who tragically took her own life earlier this year, detailed her harrowing experience of being sex trafficked as a minor. She described the years of fear and trauma inflicted by Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Spanning nearly 400 pages, the memoir reveals how what was initially presented as a promising opportunity gradually turned into a nightmarish captivity. Giuffre recounts how, step by calculated step, her defenses were systematically dismantled by Epstein and Maxwell.

“Each time I felt a hint of unease, a single look from Maxwell convinced me I was simply overreacting,” she wrote, highlighting the psychological control exerted over her.

“Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice,” a poignant narrative by one of Epstein’s most prominent accusers, was officially released on Tuesday, offering a chilling insight into her fight for justice.

Following her introduction into Epstein’s world, Giuffre said that she was a “daily presence” at El Brillo Way, the financier’s Palm Beach mansion. She shared that Epstein “liked to watch women together.”

“Little by little, I was welcomed into the sorority of Epstein’s girls,” she wrote.

Giuffre, who was working at Mar-a-Lago when she was recruited, said that Epstein encouraged her to quit her job to work full-time for him, but warned that she would be “at his beck and call, day and night. No exceptions.”

“When he said, ‘Jump!’ my response would have to be, “How high?”

Giuffre said that through becoming financially indebted to Epstein, she became trapped in servitude. She described that she was initially hesitant to agree to work full-time for Epstein, but received a threat about her younger brother, Sky Roberts Jr.

“We know where your brother goes to school,” Epstein allegedly told her. “You must never tell a soul what goes on in this house.”

Giuffre revealed that as her relationship with Epstein and Maxwell grew, she said that she had “unlocked” Epstein into confiding in her. In her memoir she wrote that he showed her a hidden doorway next to “some paintings of naked people stretching.”

She said that she saw the convicted sex offender’s “trophy closet,” a closet with floor-to-ceiling photos of young girls.

“All of the girls were naked, many of them quite obviously underage, and the images were raunchy, not demure,” Giuffre recalled in her memoir. “A stack of shoe-boxes in the corner held the overflow. He had so many photos that he’d run out of display space.”

She said that when Epstein allegedly showed her his closet, she said he didn’t speak, but the smug look on his face said, “Look at my conquests. Look at how powerful I am.”

Giuffre delved into the elite exploitation of Epstein’s world, sharing that she would be at Epstein’s various residences all day.

“Some days, the call would come in the morning. I’d show up, perform whatever sex acts Epstein wanted, then hang out beside his vast swimming pool while he got some work done. After a few hours, I’d usually be summoned to have sex with him again,” she wrote. 

“If Maxwell was there, I was often told to attend to her sexually as well. She kept a bin of vibrators and sex toys handy for these sessions. But she never demanded sex from me one-on-one — only when we were with Epstein. Sometimes there were other girls there, too, and I’d end up staying at El Brillo Way all day.”

She said that Maxwell, who was convicted in 2021 for helping lure teenage girls to be sexually abused by Epstein, was “proud” of her friendships with famous people.

Giuffre wrote that Maxwell “loved to talk about how easily she could get former president Bill Clinton on the phone,” though Clinton has denied any wrongdoing or knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.

Epstein was found dead in his New York jail cell weeks after his 2019 arrest. The American financier was awaiting trial on U.S. federal sex-trafficking charges involving dozens of teenage girls and young women, some as young as 14. Investigators ruled his death a suicide.

Maxwell was convicted in 2021 for helping lure teenage girls to be sexually abused by him. She is serving a 20-year prison sentence.
