[GRADE A1 -- Email chain, November 2012]
Kahn emailed Epstein, CC: Jean-Luc Brunel: "attached is correspondence from JL and Dominque along with model statement... the balance on statement shows you owe MC2 6,645.48... JL said 5,000 commission should be..."
Epstein responded: "Whatever he wants."
MC2 was the model agency at the center of the trafficking recruitment pipeline. Jean-Luc Brunel was later indicted in France for rape and sex trafficking of minors and died in custody in February 2022. Kahn was not adjacent to MC2 -- records indicate he was running its books.
[GRADE A1 -- Direct wire instructions, 2011-2016]
Three documented instances of Kahn executing wire payments to Nadia Marcinkova (now Nadia Marcinko):
Nadia Marcinkova was brought from Slovakia as a teenager and is identified in court filings as both a victim and alleged co-conspirator in Epstein's trafficking operation.
[GRADE A1 -- Email chains, 2016-2018]
Kahn was CC'd on visa/financial support documentation for a young woman's US student visa at Berkeley (EFTA02703209). He asked Epstein to confirm a $26,250 tuition deposit payment (EFTA00703709). He sought approval to pay $42,382.55 in Swiss Francs for tuition at a Swiss school through HBRK (EFTA01008035). He personally contacted schools to obtain cost information (EFTA00625757).
[GRADE B -- Civil complaint allegations]
The Boies Schiller complaint against the Epstein estate alleges that Indyke and Kahn coerced three victims into arranged marriages. The specific victims, immigration paperwork, and marriage details remain under seal.
WHAT THIS SHOWS AND DOES NOT SHOW: The documents establish that Kahn handled MC2 model agency financial records, executed wire payments to Nadia Marcinkova on Epstein's direct instructions, processed visa/tuition payments for young women, and is alleged in civil proceedings to have coerced victims into arranged marriages. The documents do NOT establish that Kahn had knowledge these activities were connected to trafficking. The MC2 bookkeeping, Nadia wires, and tuition payments could individually be characterized as legitimate financial management. Collectively, they show Kahn as the payment node for activities later identified by law enforcement as components of a trafficking operation.
