"The previously unreported meeting is one of several examples of Attia turning to Epstein as he set up his then-fledgling medical practice. Emails show Attia asked Epstein for patient referrals in 2015, stayed in an empty Upper East Side apartment Epstein owned in 2016, discussed the 2017 job opening with Epstein and, over several years, provided him with health advice and testing."
"The records suggest Attia had a deeper relationship with the late convicted sex offender than he publicly acknowledged last month, when he claimed to have met with Epstein on "approximately seven or eight occasions at his New York City home" to discuss research studies and be introduced to other people, including scientists, doctors, business leaders or heads of state."
""To be clear, I never witnessed illegal behavior and never saw anyone who appeared underage in his presence," Attia wrote in a 1,000-word statement last month addressing his appearances in the Epstein files, which he posted on X."
Email correspondence from the Epstein files reveals Peter Attia had extensive interactions with Jeffrey Epstein beyond what Attia publicly disclosed. Attia sought patient referrals for his medical practice in 2015, occupied an Epstein-owned apartment in 2016, and discussed job openings with him in 2017. Attia also provided Epstein with health advice and testing over several years. These interactions occurred after Epstein's 2008 conviction for child prostitution and his requirement to register as a sex offender. Attia previously claimed meeting Epstein only seven or eight times to discuss research and meet other professionals. A model involved in one documented meeting is identified as an abuse victim. Attia stated he never witnessed illegal behavior or underage individuals in Epstein's presence.
