Trump hit with $310M suit alleging trafficking scheme tied to Epstein-style claims

President Donald Trump has been hit with a $310 million lawsuit in Palm Beach County accusing him, Elon Musk, and Bill Gates of participating in an alleged “trafficking venture” that plaintiffs claim mirrors Jeffrey Epstein’s operation. The lawsuit, filed Nov. 24 and reported by BOCA News Now, alleges an eight-year pattern of exploitation beginning in 2018 and continuing under Trump’s current administration.

The unnamed plaintiffs accuse Trump of “grooming” the lead plaintiff since 1998, using the Gates Foundation as a cover, and participating in coordinated assaults. They also claim the plaintiff’s infant daughter was taken from her as retaliation for filing lawsuits. The filing further alleges multiple attempts on the plaintiff’s life between 2023 and 2024.

Trump is not facing any active criminal charges, and has and continues to deny any wrong-doing as it relates to Epstein, who died in 2019 awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. The plaintiffs in the case are seeking at least $310 million in compensatory damages, more than $134 million in attorneys’ fees, and injunctive relief that would include the “immediate return of full legal and physical custody” of the lead plaintiff’s daughter. They also asked the court that the trial be expedited so that a trial by jury is held by Dec. 20.
