US EditionWSJ: Sexualized letter bearing Trump’s name found in Epstein birthday book, Trump denies
UNITED STATES, JUL 21 – The letter allegedly from Trump to Epstein was part of a 2003 birthday album compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell, prompting Trump to deny authorship and threaten legal action against The Wall Street Journal.
- Last Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Epstein's 2003 birthday album includes a note from Trump, featuring a drawing of a naked woman.
- Ghislaine Maxwell assembled the album, including entries from Leslie Wexner and Alan Dershowitz, with entries from Epstein associates, Wall Street Journal reported.
- Wall Street Journal said the signature appears as a `squiggly` mark below the figure’s waist, mimicking pubic hair, noting the signature detail.
- On Tuesday, Trump denied writing the note or drawing the picture, calling it a `fake Wall Street Journal story`.
- Legal experts warn that discovery could stretch on for years before public release, as the case may enter discovery, and documents could take years to emerge.
