Entity 1RelationshipEntity 2Description
Kenneth Feinberg Administrator Claimants Kenneth Feinberg is the administrator of a claims program for victims related to the Epstein estate.
Estate Legal Claimants The estate is involved in a legal process to resolve claims from alleged victims.

Notable Quotes 2
It's important because to allow the estate a say in these decisions compromises the key-guiding principle of the program. It compromises our independence; it compromises our claims and confidentiality; it compromises the non-adversarial nature of the program.
Don't come to a program where claimants, individual victims have participated in a program on the absolute guarantee of the administrator that information that have been submitted will not be disclosed to anybody.
Red Flags 2
  • Concerns about the confidentiality of information and potential use against claimants.
  • Potential conflicts of interest between the executors and the program.
