Meet the Woman Who Stands to Inherit Much of Jeffrey Epstein’s Fortune

The young dentist was smiling and soft-spoken, wearing a Columbia University fleece jacket and holding her long hair back with a clip. She was introduced by her assistant simply as “Dr. Karyna.”

But what the patient — who had come to the office in December expecting to see a different dentist — didn’t know was that she was being treated by Dr. Karyna Shuliak, the notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s girlfriend.

Dr. Shuliak was the last person Mr. Epstein called before he killed himself in his jail cell in 2019. She could inherit as much as $100 million from his estate, including a 33-carat diamond ring, according to a trove of investigative records released by federal authorities.

She sounds like a crumby person. Maybe not a sexual predator or a sociopath like Epstein. But one of those people who turns a blind eye and has no qualms about taking advantage of the exploitation of others.

She at the very least knowingly faked a same sex marriage to get a green card. In a time when do many good people are being sent to concentration camps, deported, or killed for far far less, she should be kicked out the country.

From the start, this woman has been very carefully redacted from the files, more carefully redacted than even the orange chancre, and I always wondered why. But as time has gone on, that reason has become clear: the money.

The individuals closest to the cash are, and have always been, the most carefully redacted of all. And they are still being actively, specifically protected -- not just by the Department of Justice but also by Treasury. Ron Wyden, the senator from Oregon, has been working for years now to get Epstein's specific banking records out of Treasury and keeps getting hard-blocked by Scott Bessent, the secretary of the Treasury and keeper of those records, in open defiance of the law.

This is part of why they are desperate to rig the midterms: if the Republicans lose, everything they have worked so hard to block will be released.

They are all still working even harder to cover the money trail than they are to cover the perps and the crimes against children. Stop for a second and let that sink in: they care less about people knowing the orange chancre rapes kids than they do about Epstein's banking records coming to light.

But they will come out. Feel free to disagree, but the cracks in the dam are not just there but widening daily. No one thought we'd get this far but we have. And when it all comes out, I believe that we will find that they ALL knew about the kids -- only some actively participated, like Leon Black and Jes Staley, but they ALL knew -- and just did not care.

And I believe that we will find this specific woman very close to the top of the tower of sick shit, right next to Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, who are both also very carefully redacted out of the publicly released files and who even today control Epstein's estate. This woman stands to inherit $50 million; Indyke and Kahn stand to inherit $25 million each. She and Epstein were so close that his last call from the Manhattan MCC was to her. There is nothing Epstein did that she did not know about and approve and assist, and I think that's what the records will overwhelmingly prove, when they finally come out.

Yet for all the publicity, very few even recognize the names of Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn. They are all through the DoJ site because they have both been sued many times, both for their own personal actions and as administrators of the Epstein estate, but you never hear about them in the news. There's a reason for that, and it's the same reason that until now most people have not heard this woman's name: even now they are actively being shielded by the administration and the elite they serve.

For these people, it was never about the kids. The kids were used, disposable, forgotten. For these it was AND STILL IS 100% about the money.

There's a reason this woman is hiding now, and it's not because of the publicity. It's because she already knows what's behind the curtain.

I'm not OP but it's a gift link, opened for me without a problem.

Here's an archive.ph link (it has the content; use at your own discretion) for anyone who still needs one.
