Court Docs: Hefner Warned FBI About Epstein in 2005
Court records say the FBI agreed to help after a Playmate reported abuse, but did not follow up for about 15 years, survivors allege.
- Playboy founder Hugh Hefner notified the FBI of Jeffrey Epstein in 2005, reporting that a Playmate was sexually abused and trafficked by the late financier, according to new court documents.
- Former Playboy Playmate Audra Christiansen told Hefner in 2005 she was an Epstein survivor, urging him to contact authorities because they would prioritize his status over hers.
- Documents revealed Christiansen was 'trafficked for 10 years' after meeting Epstein, yet the FBI reportedly ignored Hefner's tips and her allegations for 15 years.
- 34 Epstein survivors filed a legal complaint against the United States in the Southern District of Florida, alleging the FBI violated mandatory policies by failing to investigate credible tips.
- The FBI is seeking to dismiss the case, arguing plaintiffs exceeded the two-year filing deadline; meanwhile, Hefner himself faced separate allegations of systematic sexual misconduct.
