Jeffrey Epstein dropped a haughty ‘what minor’ when confronted with crime of soliciting prostitution from underage victim

A newly released clip from a 2010 deposition shows just how utterly dismissive Jeffrey Epstein was regarding his victims, years before his eventual final arrest. The video, which is part of the latest batch of Epstein Files released by the Department of Justice, features the convicted financier asking a truly chilling question when confronted about his crime: “What minor?”

The deposition took place in 2010, shortly after Epstein had already secured a controversial plea deal in 2009 for soliciting a minor for prostitution. Under that deal, he pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from someone under the age of 18, along with a separate count of soliciting prostitution. Despite the severity of the charges, he only served 18 months in a Florida jail.
