Everybody knew' what was happening on that island: ex-Epstein architect

Summary
CNN reporter Kyung Lah provided an exclusive interview with architect and interior designer Robert Couturier, who was hired by convicted sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to work on his infamous island. CNN reports Couturier backed out of the project after a few months and then alerted the FBI of what Epstein had requested he build.“There's no mistaking,” Couturier told Lah. “You don't put women on bunk beds. I'm sorry. Everybody knew what was happening on that island. Even his staff people worked for him.”When Couturier first noted all the puzzling bunk beds he asked who they were for.“There were bunk beds and I said to him, I said, ‘oh my god, are you expecting grandchildren?’ And he said, ‘no, these are for my — these are for the girls.”Lah reports a former staffer said the main home had “many pictures of young girls, some topless, looking about 15 to 16 years old” in room after room of the island home.According to CNN, files show “visible signs of something off,” including Epstein in his kitchen chasing girls or young women, which his staff noticed. A former chef, said Lah, claimed every hour Epstein would take a girl down to his master bedroom then order his maid to clean up. Another staffer worried about Epstein’s guests. “He described seeing an unnamed man with girls who did not look 18, and they were all naked,” said Lah. “He also told the FBI he saw then Prince Andrew grinding against some young girl in the pool. UK authorities arrested Andrew last month saying they're reviewing claims he shared sensitive government information with Epstein.”CNN reports Virgin Islands prosecutors say Epstein coerced girls as young as 12 into sexual activity. “One victim said she was trapped on the island and tried to escape Epstein and the others by trying to swim off [the island] after spending the day being raped,” said Lah.“The girls and young women went on the island were basic prisoners,” said Couturier. “You couldn't leave.”
