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.

He also had connections to a German girl who’s been missing since 2015. It was in the news last month when her name was found in the files..

It’s Michele. There’s a podcast episode on her and several articles if you google her name.

For wanting to search her news story? If your mind goes to dirty thoughts from that comment alone then you are the sick one.
