“Karyna Shuliak, ex fidanzata di Epstein, destinataria di 100 milioni di dollari, gioielli e case di lusso dagli Usa a Parigi”

Karyna Shuliak, a 37-year-old Belarusian dentist, has emerged as the primary beneficiary of the late Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, reportedly set to receive up to $100 million, along with jewels and luxury properties, according to documents released by U.S. authorities. The information was disclosed in a detailed report by The New York Times, which analyzed newly declassified State Department records revealing the nature of their relationship. Shuliak, who became Epstein’s final girlfriend before his death in prison in 2019, is also listed as the recipient of a 33-carat diamond, a Manhattan residence, a villa in Palm Beach, the Zorro Ranch in New Mexico, an apartment in Paris, and private islands in the Turks and Caicos. However, these assets remain under judicial administration due to ongoing legal proceedings involving compensation claims from Epstein's victims. Shuliak met Epstein when she was just 21 years old, shortly after arriving in New York. According to the documents, he referred to her as his “favorite,” and played a key role in helping her gain admission to the Columbia Dental School and secure permanent residency through marriage to one of his alleged victims, Jennifer Kalin. The couple married in 2013, and five years later, Shuliak obtained U.S. citizenship. Their relationship lasted eight years, during which they traveled extensively together. She managed to send money back to her family in Belarus and earned Epstein’s trust, being entrusted with the management of his properties. Born on March 15, 1989, in Minsk, Shuliak moved to the United States in 2009 with the goal of studying dentistry. Epstein designated her as the main beneficiary of his will on August 8, 2019, just 48 hours before his suicide in jail. Alongside the financial inheritance, she is named as the recipient of several high-value assets, including the aforementioned real estate and jewelry. However, the majority of the estate remains frozen as part of legal settlements related to victim compensation. A portion of the assets has already been allocated toward these legal costs, while the remaining funds have yet to be distributed among the beneficiaries, which include more than 40 individuals outlined in Epstein’s last will. Epstein, a former financier accused of sexually abusing underage girls, had been incarcerated since 2018 on charges of sex trafficking and fraud. His death in 2019 sparked widespread public outrage and renewed scrutiny into his criminal activities. Despite his legal troubles, he maintained close ties with multiple women over the years, some of whom were allegedly coerced into relationships through financial incentives or threats. Shuliak, however, appears to have built a more personal connection with him, earning his confidence and managing his affairs. The legal process surrounding Epstein’s estate continues to unfold, with courts overseeing the distribution of his wealth amid complex litigation. While Shuliak stands to inherit a substantial portion of the fortune, the exact amount and timing of her share remain uncertain. Legal experts suggest that the court will likely determine the final allocation once all pending cases are resolved. Meanwhile, the public remains divided on how justice should be served for Epstein’s victims, many of whom continue to seek closure and reparations. As the legal proceedings progress, attention remains focused on the broader implications of Epstein’s legacy. His case has become emblematic of the challenges in holding powerful figures accountable for crimes against children. The ongoing legal battles highlight the complexities of balancing financial restitution with the pursuit of justice for survivors. For Shuliak, the outcome of these proceedings will determine whether she receives the inheritance she was promised, or whether the legal system ultimately decides otherwise.
