Woman Recounts Unsettling Moment with Trump at Epstein’s Office in the 1990s

 

Maria Farmer, an artist and one of the earliest accusers of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, has shared a disturbing memory involving former President Donald Trump. In a report by The New York Times, Farmer described a meeting that took place in Epstein’s Manhattan office during the 1990s.

According to her account, Farmer said Trump entered the office while she was present and began acting in a way that made her uncomfortable. She claimed he appeared to be hovering near her and fixated on her legs. “I felt very uneasy,” she recalled. She also recounted Epstein entering the room and saying to Trump, “No, no. She’s not here for you.”

As both men left the room, Farmer said she overheard Trump make a remark implying he believed she was only 16 years old at the time.

Farmer, along with her sister Annie—who also testified in the 2021 trial against Maxwell—has long urged authorities to investigate Epstein’s social network, which included many high-profile figures. Farmer told the FBI about her concerns as early as 1996 and again in 2006. She stated that she had specifically mentioned Trump during both of those interactions.

The Trump administration has pushed back on her claims. White House communications director Steven Cheung responded by stating, “The president was never in Epstein’s office,” and further asserted that Trump had barred Epstein from his private club “for being inappropriate.”

The former president’s past connection with Epstein has been under renewed public scrutiny, particularly in light of Farmer’s resurfaced testimony. This comes amid ongoing controversy around the FBI and Department of Justice’s reluctance to release all related files, including a rumored “client list” that has not been made public.

Although Trump has said he wants all grand jury material related to Epstein’s case to be released, only limited information has been made available so far. Experts note that the released documents may fall short of satisfying public curiosity about the full scope of Epstein’s activities and his associations with powerful individuals.

Farmer’s account adds new urgency to the public’s desire for transparency around the case and a clearer understanding of the connections Epstein had during his years of influence.
