I just ran across this article written 2 days ago, December 16,2020.
This is the first I've heard this name. With any luck maybe this arrest will result in some information and further arrests.
On Monday, Canadian authorities arrested fashion mogul Peter Nygard after he was indicted in Manhattan on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
The arrest comes as a result of an extradition treaty between Canada and the U.S., where Nygard faces allegations of rape and trafficking. Nygard’s
story bears a disturbing resemblance to the case of serial sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein.
The CBC reports:
“According to the affidavit, evidence gathered in the U.S. includes interviews with more than two dozen people.
On Monday, Canadian authorities arrested fashion mogul Peter Nygard after he was indicted in Manhattan on charges of sex trafficking and
racketeering. The arrest comes as a result of an extradition treaty between Canada and the U.S., where Nygard faces allegations of rape and
trafficking. Nygard’s story bears a disturbing resemblance to the case of serial sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein.
The CBC reports:
“According to the affidavit, evidence gathered in the U.S. includes interviews with more than two dozen people.
‘The investigation shows that Nygard’s criminal conduct has affected hundreds of victims,’ the affidavit says. ‘The harm to his victims has
included not only economic and psychological harm but also numerous instances of non-consensual sex, including non-consensual group sex, attempted
forcible rapes and drugging of victims.'”
According to the article since early 2000's their have been plauges of accusations against Nygard in Canada, US and his private island in the
Bahamas.
The U.S. federal government has been investigating Nygard for trafficking accusations since at least 2015. In February, 10 anonymous women filed
a federal lawsuit accusing Nygard of a “decades-long sex-trafficking scheme.” After the February allegations authorities raided Nygard’s home
in Los Angeles and his offices in New York City.
It further goes on to add;
Nygard has also been accused of rape by his own sons. In August, two of his sons accused their father of arranging for them to be raped when
they were children. After the arrest, Nygard’s son, Kai Bickle Nygard , told the CBC, “I’m just absolutely thrilled to find out that he’s
going to have to face a trial and go through the judicial process and not be able to just take off with a pot of money offshore somewhere.”
His own sons! Makes me wonder if others who are associated/accused of child sexual assault put their own kids out there, or were inappropriate with
their own children.
Canada’s Jeffrey Epstein
As with disgraced serial abuser Jeffrey Epstein, Nygard is accused of targeting victims who came from low income families and disadvantaged
backgrounds, promising them money and modeling contracts. The suit alleges that Nygard kept a database of “potential victims” on Nygard
International company servers. The list reportedly contained the names of over 7,500 women and girls.
The victims claim he used drugs, alcohol, and intimidation to get the victims to have sex. Some of the victims as young as 14 years old.
And it appears some of Epstein's buddies were also involved with this guy, surprise, surprise.
As with Epstein, Nygard also had a litany of famous friends who were often photographed celebrating with him or spending time on his island. Some
of the people pictured with Nygard include Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Robert DeNiro, and former U.S. President George H.W. Bush and Former First
Lady Barbara Bush.
And look here, yet another familiar name connected to Epstein.
Nygard and Jeffrey Epstein shared a mutual friend, Britain’s Prince Andrew, the Duke of York.
Gates was named in the article so I found this interesting;
Victims and former employees state that Nygard seemed obsessed with slowing down the aging process and stem cell research, another similarity to
Epstein. Journalist Melissa Cronin reported that Nygard established a stem cell research company in St. Kitts with the goal of using aborted fetuses
from pregnant women to provide him with fresh stem cells.
Such similarities between Epstein and Maxwell and this story.
The Fashion to Sexual Assault Pipeline
Another commonality between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Nygard is their connection to and affinity for young female models. As a fashion mogul, Nygard
was often surrounded by young attractive women and the lawsuits allege that he used his connections to recruit women into his sexual schemes. This
explains Nygard’s connection to Instagram model Suelyn Medeiros. She is now facing her own legal trouble as she has been named as a co-conspirator
in the lawsuit.
The horrid tales of rape and abuse of aspiring models at the hands of Nygard, Epstein, Maxwell, and Brunel make it clear that some in the
millionaire, billionaire class believe they are above the law and beyond accountability. For this “Predator Class,” young men and women are simply
objects to be used, abused, and thrown away when they are no longer useful. The revealing of the exploits of these criminals is one more piece of
evidence indicating that extremely wealthy and powerful people – connected to Hollywood, politicians, and other influencers – are involved in
various methods of sexual abuse, trafficking, and exploitation of vulnerable individuals
The article also mentioned
“over the years some reporters have examined the Wexner-Epstein connection and found that Wexner may have been Epstein’s only financial
client and that they had an intriguing relationship that no one could quite figure out.”
Beyond the financial connection, Wexner also appears to have been one of the sources of young women for Jeffrey Epstein
If this guy doesn't commit suicide (insert sarcasm) maybe he'll open the can of worms.
