Epstein’s Secret Marriage and Interlochen Abuse | Toronto News

Jeffrey Epstein allegedly engineered a sham same-sex marriage in 2013 to help his Belarusian girlfriend, Karyna Shuliak, avoid deportation — advising her that marrying an American woman was the fastest path to a green card. The ceremony, held in New York City, involved one of Epstein’s female assistants, who was reportedly coerced into the union. Shuliak later learned her deportation hearing was scheduled just days after the wedding — but the marriage was legally recognized and ultimately led to her U.S. citizenship in 2018. The couple divorced the next year; Shuliak, Epstein’s last known girlfriend, was set to inherit a major portion of his estate and had previously expressed deep affection for him, though she’s never been accused of wrongdoing. Meanwhile, a new report reveals over 45 alleged abusers at the Interlochen Center for the Arts — including Epstein — with 70 firsthand accounts of sexual abuse or grooming, highlighting the disturbing breadth of his alleged misconduct across decades and institutions.
