Overview
- Newly reported emails reviewed by Politico show Attia was invited to stay in Epstein’s Manhattan apartment and was introduced to a model later identified as a victim, according to the model’s attorney.
- Correspondence and court records document Attia seeking patient referrals in 2015, occupying an Epstein‑owned Upper East Side apartment in 2016, discussing a 2017 hire, and offering health advice and testing over several years.
- Additional emails include sexual‑health pitches to Epstein, including a 2017 message about helping him “keep up with the 23‑year‑old beauties,” as Attia worked to build an elite client roster.
- Attia had publicly minimized the relationship as a handful of meetings, yet his name appears 1,741 times in the released files, indicating broader engagement than he acknowledged.
- Following the revelations, Attia resigned as a CBS contributor and cut ties with brands including David and AG1, while Virta Health said it ended its advisory relationship; his spokesperson maintains no patients, investments, payments, or hires resulted from Epstein’s introductions.
