An excerpt from the forthcoming memoir from Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s accusers , was released by CBS News Oct. 19.
The released portion of the memoir details a 2021 trip Giuffre took to the Louvre Museum as she prepared to testify against French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel in a Paris court .
"For a while, everything went as I'd imagined. I lost myself in the larger-than-life bronze and marble sculptures, texting my husband photos of 'The Four Captives,' a quartet of soldiers in shackles, and of Hercules fighting an oversized snake," the excerpt reads. "I climbed a flight of stairs, turned a corner, and froze. I know this room, screamed a voice inside my head. I'd been in this precise spot before — two decades ago, when I was just seventeen."
