Its always the people you most medium suspect.
Came here to post the same exact comment. Now I'm wondering if I'm just a bot that gained sentience.
David Copperfield about to do his greatest disappearing act ever.
More than half of the allegations are from women who said they were under 18 at the time of the incidents. Some said they were as young as 15, although he may not have known their ages.
...
Separately, Copperfield has faced scrutiny because of his association with Jeffrey Epstein, the indicted child sex trafficker who killed himself in prison in 2019.
Copperfield was among the high-profile individuals who were named in Epstein-related court documents that were unsealed in January. The inclusion of Copperfield’s name does not mean he committed a crime. According to one sworn statement, Copperfield asked one woman – who, it later emerged, was one of Epstein’s victims – whether she was “aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls” for Epstein.
A very nasty picture continues to reveal itself.
Numerous court documents identifying associates of notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were made public on Wednesday.
Some of the high-profile names in the court documents include Prince Andrew, the former US president Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and David Copperfield.
...
One document included a deposition given by Johanna Sjoberg, whom Maxwell allegedly procured for the purpose of performing sex acts on Epstein.
Sjoberg said in her deposition that Epstein “said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls”.
...
Sjoberg also said that the late musician Michael Jackson was at Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion, and that she met the famed magician David Copperfield.
“Did you ever meet anybody famous when you were with Jeffrey? she was asked. “I met Michael Jackson … at [Epstein’s] house in Palm Beach.”
Asked whether she massaged Jackson, Sjoberg said: “I did not.”
As for Copperfield, Sjoberg said that he attended dinner at one of Epstein’s homes and “he did some magic tricks”.
“Did you observe David Copperfield to be a friend of Jeffrey Epstein’s?” she was asked. Sjoberg replied in the affirmative.
“Did Copperfield ever discuss Jeffrey’s involvement with young girls with you?” she was also asked. “He questioned me if I was aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls.”
Copperfield, she said in the deposition, didn’t tell her any specifics of that question. “Did he say whether they were teenagers or anything along those lines?” she was also asked. “He did not.”
I imagine a lot of associates of Epstein aren't sleeping well at the moment. Good.
Epstein didn't kill himself.
Copperfield’s lawyers say the allegations are ‘not only completely false but also entirely implausible’
I mean, if there's one guy I could see doing the entirely implausible...
"I didn't molest anyone, it was just camera tricks!"
-Copperfield
Much like the Statue of Liberty, Copperfield made the accusations disappear for a little bit before they came back.
Watch those hands, David Coppafeel.
Too soon?
The wordplay in Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss that name drops Copperfield ain’t aging too well.
I was making a Homestar Runner reference but Bloodhound Gang works too
I was going to go with, "I doubt he can make these accusations disappear."
Copperfield’s lawyers say the allegations are ‘not only completely false but also entirely implausible’
Magic!🪄
But, how did they see me? I was invisible!
He always came off as a creep to me, so I'm not really shocked.
