Stephen Hawking Implicated in Jeffrey Epstein Documents

This is not a good look.

Name Drop

Acclaimed theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has once again been posthumously implicated in the scandal surrounding the dead billionaire sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein — and has now been accused of participating in an "underage orgy."

The cache of documents, which had previously been redacted, were initially part of a defamation lawsuit filed by accuser Virginia Giuffre against Epstein and his alleged procurer Ghislaine Maxwell.

In the intervening years, rumors about the names on the so-called "Epstein list" have swirled around other unredacted documents, and as they continue coming out, we're learning more and more about the alleged relationships between the infamous creep and some of the world's richest and most powerful men.

The document's mentions of Hawking, like many others named in the unsealed filings, are not exactly new. In fact, knowledge of that relationship has been in circulation since at least 2015, when the physicist was photographed on Little St. James, Epstein's private island and alleged trafficking compound where, among others, Britain's Prince Andrew has been accused of sexual contact with underaged girls forced to be there.

In one email from the documents sent from Epstein to Maxwell in 2015, the now-dead pedophile told his consigliere that she could give money to Giuffre's friends to "help prove" that her claims about being forced into sex acts with famous men "were false." Among those accusations: that former president Bill Clinton had had dinner on Little St. James and that Hawking had engaged in an "underage orgy."

"You can issue a reward to any of Virginia’s friends, acquaints, [and] family that come forward and help prove her allegations are false," the billionaire wrote to his confidante. "The strongest [claim] is the Clinton dinner, and the new version in the Virgin Islands that Stephen Hawking participated in an underage orgy."

Notably, the photos of Hawking on Epstein's island were said to have been taken before the bizarre billionaire was first charged in relation to his sex crimes in 2006 — but if the famed British scientist was actually involved in any sex with underage girls there, that timeline would be beside the point.
