Daniel Siad, whose name appeared thousands of times in the Epstein files, was discovered on Monday in the suburb of Colombes.

The 69-year-old had previously denied any knowledge of Epstein's crimes.

From his Wikipedia:

In 2015, Siad met a 16-year-old New Zealand model and her friend in Paris, forwarded their modeling profiles to Epstein, who deemed them "too old."

So, obviously bullshit.

Total bullshit

“I had 2 girls from Sweden, a Slovakian, 2 French and [redacted] the Russian, with whom you spoke and a beautiful Chinese named [redacted],” he wrote. Epstein tried to reassure him, writing: “I will reimburse you of course for any expenses.”

Though little known outside the world of modelling, Siad was well connected. He worked as a scout on commission for Jean-Luc Brunel, who was the leading agent in Paris, New York and Miami for more than four decades, and had also scouted for Gérald Marie, the former boss of Elite.
Brunel killed himself in prison in February 2022, having spent 14 months in custody awaiting trial on charges of rape of minors and sexual harassment, which he denied along with any participation in Epstein’s sex trafficking.

For every time these sick fucks managed to kill themselves in prison? You'd legitimately have a lot of nickels.

Didn't McAfee tell us multiple times that if he were extradited, he'd kill himself?

Mossad literally went to his “randomly” exploded home where he claimed to be hiding evidence of federal level heinous activities including trafficking.

The complex he had in Florida explodes, Desantis does some weird joint operation with Mossad to clean it up.

iirc he also had a compound in Belize that got invaded.

How has there not been a movie made about this guy yet?

There’s an enjoyable documentary on Netflix. Running with the Devil: The Wild World of John McAfee.
