Virginia Giuffre said that a prime minister attacked her on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island
This story contains descriptions of sexual assault and abuse that may be distressing to some readers.
As reported by the New York Post, Giuffre described encounters with a friend of Epstein’s whom she met in 2002, when she was age 18, on his private island.
She told of how Epstein ordered her to accompany the man to a cabana but said it soon became clear that the man “wanted violence.”
“He repeatedly choked me until I lost consciousness and took pleasure in seeing me in fear for my life,” Giuffre wrote in the book, according to an excerpt shared with The Post.
“Horrifically, the Prime Minister laughed when he hurt me and got more aroused when I begged him to stop. I emerged from the cabana bleeding from my mouth, vagina, and anus.
“For days, it hurt to breathe and to swallow.”

The man was not named in the memoir, but according to previous court filings, Giuffre alleged that former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak was one of the men who had raped her.
Barak has repeatedly denied the allegations.
Giuffre detailed her pleas to Epstein after the politician raped her “more savagely than anyone had before” but noted the financier met her begging with apathy.
“I got down on my knees and pleaded with him. I don’t know if Epstein feared the man or if he owed him a favor, but he wouldn’t make any promises, saying coldly of the politician’s brutality, ‘You’ll get that sometimes,’” Giuffre wrote.
She said she was forced to return to the man for a second encounter onboard Epstein’s private jet, the Lolita Express.
While that encounter was far less violent, Giuffre said she still feared that the politician would harm her or choke her while she was inside the cabin with him.
After Epstein’s reaction to the violent encounter, Giuffre’s eyes were opened to his manipulations, and the incident marked the “beginning of the end” for her.
“After the attack, I couldn’t stay a fool. Having been treated so brutally and then seeing Epstein’s callous reaction to how terrorized I felt, I had to accept that Epstein meted out praise merely as a manipulation to keep me subservient,” Giuffre wrote.
“Epstein cared only about Epstein.”
A further turning point for Giuffre came after the attack, when Epstein and his former girlfriend and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell asked her to be a surrogate for them.
The pair offered to pay $200,000 per month, provide 24-hour nannies and set Giuffre up in a mansion, if she signed over legal rights to Epstein and Maxwell.

Giuffre would also have been required to travel with the child and put it in writing that Epstein would have sole custody if she were ever to leave.
She feared that if the child was born a girl, the twisted couple would abuse her but knew outright refusing to be a surrogate could have consequences.
Giuffre said that she agreed to the plan but started her own scheme to leave their clutches.
“Epstein and Maxwell had made so many demands that I had met, ignoring my own feelings in the hope of pleasing them. But this proposal would endanger another person: a helpless child. It was a bridge too far,” Giuffre wrote in her memoir.

“With perfect clarity, I simply knew that I couldn’t agree to their proposal. That said, I also knew I couldn’t just tell Epstein and Maxwell no. That was too dangerous.
“For the first time in more than two years, I began actively seeking a way to escape, buying time by pretending to think over their offer.”
After she requested professional massage training, Epstein sent Giuffre to the International Training Massage School in Thailand but made clear she was expected to recruit for him.
While she was in Thailand, Giuffre met her husband who helped her cut ties with Epstein and Maxwell.
Her posthumous memoir will be released on Tuesday, October 21.
