"It is still not clear who Katie Johnson was, or if she ever existed — though someone professing to be her contacted me in 2016 when I first reported on the lawsuits. Yet, thanks to emails released last week by Republicans on the House Oversight Committee, we now know that Epstein was at least aware of her accusations.
In November 2016, two days after Trump’s election, Epstein forwarded a Daily Mail story about the lawsuit being withdrawn in New York federal court to several friends and associates.
New York Times financial reporter Landon Thomas Jr. responded, 'You called it,' and asked Epstein about his stock portfolio. Melanie Walker, a neurosurgeon and Gates Foundation alum, offered her condolences and asked whether Epstein 'even' knew the 'troubled' plaintiff. Epstein replied, 'nope.' To another sympathizing confidant — Virgin Islands tax attorney Erika A. Kellerhals, who would receive Epstein’s final will — Epstein wrote, 'its funny, dont lose your sense of humor.'
And when Epstein told Deepak Chopra the lawsuit had been dropped, the New Age guru replied, 'Good' over a signature line that included a Carlsbad address and promoted Chopra’s book, 'Radical Beauty: How to Transform Yourself From the Inside Out.'”

"A California woman accused both Epstein and Trump. Did she exist?"

"With Trump on Wednesday signing Congress’ measure to require the Justice Department to publish the remainder of the Epstein files, there could soon be additional bales of materials to sift through.
Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Santa Clara, one of the architects of the bipartisan petition, said he expects the files to reveal the identities of 'hundreds of rich and powerful men' who knew of Epstein’s crimes, covered them up and possibly participated in them."
