UPDATE: Former model Stacey Williams has come forward with explosive allegations that Donald Trump groped her in Trump Tower in 1993, while her then-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein watched. As the deadline for releasing remaining Epstein files approaches this Friday, Williams shared her harrowing experience on The Daily Beast Podcast, shedding light on a disturbing encounter that she describes as “some sort of twisted game.”
This revelation comes at a critical time, just days before the Department of Justice is required to release federal investigation files related to Epstein under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. With the clock ticking, Williams’ allegations add urgency to the ongoing discourse surrounding Epstein’s connections to high-profile individuals, including Trump.
During the podcast, Williams recounted meeting Epstein at a dinner party, which led to a relationship that ultimately resulted in her being taken to Trump Tower. She vividly described the incident: “He [Trump] started groping me while the two of them continued having a casual conversation… He’s just moving his hands sort of up and down my body.” Williams emphasized that Epstein did not intervene during the assault, a moment she now views with horror.
Reflecting on the incident, Williams expressed disbelief at Epstein’s behavior, saying, “I do remember little snippets of Trump saying, ‘Oh yeah, her career is on fire.’” She also recounted how Epstein later chastised her in the elevator for allowing the encounter to happen, leading to the end of their relationship shortly thereafter. “I just said, ‘Jeffrey, you are extremely mentally ill and you need to get help,’” she stated.
Williams first publicly shared her allegations last year during a “Survivors for Kamala” Zoom call, which led to immediate backlash from the White House. Spokesperson Abigail Jackson dismissed her claims as “unequivocally false,” framing them as politically motivated attacks against Trump. Last year, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed this sentiment, asserting that the timing of Williams’ allegations was suspicious.
As the deadline for the Epstein files looms, Ro Khanna, a co-author of the Transparency Act, warned that officials could face serious repercussions if the files are not released on time. “They could be subject to prosecution given the federal law,” he stated, emphasizing the high stakes involved.
This developing story continues to gain traction, and new episodes of The Daily Beast Podcast are released every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, providing ongoing insights into this complex narrative.
Stay tuned as more details unfold surrounding Williams’ allegations and the impending release of the Epstein files, which could have significant implications for the individuals involved and the broader investigation.
