My Take
My Take on this entry cannot be admiration, and I want to be honest about that. Epstein's story is, to me, a study in how intelligence and charm become dangerous when stripped of conscience. A math teacher who talked his way into managing billionaires' fortunes, he built a social fortress of the powerful and used it to shield the systematic abuse of girls and young women. His 2019 death in custody left victims without full answers, which I find genuinely haunting. I include him in this database not as a celebrity to celebrate, but as a warning about what wealth can buy: silence, access, and far too much time.
