The latest set of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein from the Department of Justice discloses that he planned to leave his partner $50 million, a 33-carat diamond ring, Little Saint James island, and his New York townhouse in his final will. This will, executed just two days before his death, outlined the distribution of a $288 million fortune and various international assets among more than 44 recipients.
In his will, Epstein identified his partner, Karyna Shuliak, as originating from Belarus and potentially having a long-standing romantic relationship with him. The documents also revealed that she was granted properties in Paris and Florida. Additionally, Epstein’s will included a statement where he expressed his opinion about former President Trump.
Reports indicate that Epstein may have covered expensive medical expenses for Shuliak’s mother and assisted in financing her parents’ luxury residence in Minsk, Belarus. The 33-carat diamond ring designated for Shuliak was intended for a potential marriage, adorned with baguette-cut diamonds in platinum.
Epstein passed away while awaiting trial for sex trafficking charges, with his will being witnessed by his attorney, Darren Indyke, eight days after his death. The will detailed inheritances for Indyke and his accountant, Richard Kahm, with the estate eventually being directed to a trust for compensating victims, settling taxes, and covering legal costs.
Notably, there is still $127 million remaining from Epstein’s total assets. Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s associate, who is currently serving time for sex trafficking, could receive $10 million from the estate, along with Epstein’s brother and pilot. Shuliak was the last person to speak with Epstein before his death and visited him at the Metropolitan Correctional Center days before the tragic event.
The Department of Justice recently released three million documents from the Epstein files, providing further insights into Epstein’s will and estate distribution.
