David Copperfield performed magic tricks for Epstein victims according to new document drop

Court documents unsealed on Wednesday revealed that David Copperfield allegedly had dinner with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and several of his victims.
 
According to the documents from a May 2016 deposition, attorney Sigrid McCawley asked Johanna Sjoberg, one of Epstein’s alleged victims, if she ever met the American magician.

"Yes," Sjoberg replied. "Someone called me from the house and said that he would be there, and if I wanted to come have dinner, then I could meet him. So when I arrived at the house, he wasn't there yet … and there was another girl there which I had never met and never seen. She seemed young. And so I thought she could be younger than college age, but I had to assume for my own sanity that she was a daughter of one of his friends,”  according to the New York Post. Sjoberg had asked the girl what school she went to, to see if it was one of the area colleges, but as she did not recognize the name, said it possibly was a high school.

Sjoberg added that Copperfield "did some magic tricks" at dinner and was a friend of Epstein's and, according to the documents, Sjoberg noted that Copperfield, who was accused in 1988 of sexually assaulting a teen model, asked if she was "aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls."

McCawley inquired, "Did he tell you any of the specifics of that?"

"No," Sjoberg responded. 

Names that were previously kept anonymous on court documents related to associates of the notorious financier were released on a rolling basis on Wednesday by the Southern District Court of New York, names that had been redacted from a 2015 lawsuit by Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell.

Former US President Bill Clinton is among those mentioned, referred to as “John Doe 36.” 

According to testimony transcribed in the documents, Epstein said Bill Clinton "likes them young, referring to girls."
