Billionaire Leon Black Accused of Raping Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘Special Girl’

Leon Black has been accused of violently raping a 16-year-old girl with autism and Down syndrome while asking "what made her 'Jeffrey [Epstein's] special girl,'" according to a New York lawsuit.

Black retired from his investment firm Apollo in July 2021, after a review found he paid Epstein $158 million for financial advice between 2012 and 2017, after the pedophile's criminal conviction.

A woman has since come forward with historic allegations that he violently raped her, including using a sex toy, leaving "an indelible mark on her, both physically and psychologically."
