Ramsey Elkholy introduced the financier to women as young as 18 in correspondence over almost a decade.

* US-based modelling agent Ramsey Elkholy sent hundreds of emails to Jeffrey Epstein over almost a decade, discussing women's bodies and attitudes to sex.
* Elkholy introduced women as young as 18 to Epstein, including a 19-year-old Russian college student he hoped would find modelling opportunities with Epstein's help.
* Emails suggest that Elkholy was aware of Epstein's preference for younger women, describing one woman as "23 is on the old side for you".
* Elkholy discussed setting up meetings for models with Epstein's contacts in the fashion industry, including at lingerie chain Victoria's Secret and the Vera Wang label.
* The emails also suggest that Elkholy represented Kazakhstani model Ruslana Korshunova, who visited Epstein's Caribbean island when she was 18 and later fell to her death from a balcony in New York.
* Elkholy pitched various investment opportunities to Epstein, including modelling agencies, magazines, and a competition, which would have provided access to hundreds of young women.
* Elkholy's correspondence with Epstein continued until 2019, even after the legal net had tightened around Epstein for the final time.
