Lesley Groff was more than just Jeffrey Epstein’s assistant—she was allegedly one of the operational architects behind the scenes of his trafficking empire. For years, Groff managed Epstein’s calendar, travel logistics, and appointments, but the allegations against her go much deeper than administrative work. Victims and lawsuits have accused her of coordinating meetings that were, in reality, abuse sessions involving underage girls. She’s been described as someone who not only arranged encounters but also actively facilitated the recruitment process by maintaining contact with young girls and, in some cases, instructing them to bring others. Her office wasn’t a neutral workspace—it was the nerve center of a global sex trafficking ring hiding behind layers of wealth and corporate polish.


Despite these disturbing claims, Groff has never been criminally charged. She was one of the individuals protected under Epstein’s infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement, which granted immunity to unnamed co-conspirators and allowed key enablers to escape justice entirely. In the years since, she's managed to keep a low profile, rarely speaking publicly while civil suits were quietly dismissed or settled. Her continued freedom, in the face of such serious allegations, is a reminder of how deeply entrenched Epstein’s protection network was—and how many of those who helped orchestrate his abuse still walk free, untouched by the justice system. Groff’s story isn’t just about her—it’s about a system that shielded the guilty while survivors were left to carry the weight of silence.
