In July 2023, a woman identified as "Jane Doe" filed a federal lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against billionaire investor Leon Black, alleging that he raped her in 2002 at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse. The complaint details that Doe, who was 16 years old at the time and had autism and mosaic Down syndrome, was trafficked by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. She claims Epstein introduced her to Black, instructing her to provide him with a massage that would involve sexual intercourse.  Black has denied these allegations, with his attorney describing the lawsuit as "frivolous and sanctionable." In September 2024, U.S. District Judge Jessica G.L. Clarke denied Black's motion to dismiss the case, allowing the lawsuit to proceed.  Sources (commercial at 7:30) to contact me: [email protected] source: gov.uscourts.nysd.602764.152.0.pdf
