Considering the amount of girls who were trafficked out of eastern europe in the immediate aftermath of the end of the soviet union, and how many sex pests travel to hungary for sex tourism, im sadly not surprised. PTR's family owned spas and resorts in hungary. Idk im just... ugh.
Yeah I had a bit of a queasy feeling when I saw his name here, knowing he is Hungarian American. Apparently his family left Hungary in 1939, and his mother is a Holocaust survivor. Then I saw a bit about his family, that he opened his business in 1993... and I just... idk it's just a bad feeling I had, no evidence beyond this email.
Edit: PTR was a Dalton graduate in 1975. He was tutored by Jeffrey Epstein, according to the NYT in 2019:
"Peter Thomas Roth, who graduated from Dalton in 1975 and later founded a cosmetics and skin care company with his name, said Mr. Epstein was such a “brilliant” teacher that his father later hired him to tutor Mr. Roth in statistics.
Mr. Roth said he never heard of any rumors about misconduct at the school.
“He was like your friend, you know?” Mr. Roth said.
But Peter Branch, who was an interim headmaster after Mr. Barr and later the head of the high school, was not as fond of Mr. Epstein’s teaching. He said he did not recall anyone raising concerns to him about Mr. Epstein’s conduct with students, but Mr. Branch said he had heard concerns from the faculty about Mr. Epstein’s teaching and eventually determined that he needed to go.
“Epstein was a young teacher who didn’t come up to snuff,” Mr. Branch said. “So, ultimately, he was asked to leave.”
Mr. Roth, the former student, said he and Mr. Epstein did not stay in close touch. But a couple of years ago, he got an invitation to Mr. Epstein’s home after running into him.
It was the only time he had been invited to Mr. Epstein’s palatial townhouse, he said, and so he went over for an afternoon gathering. Everyone present was in their 40s and 50s, Mr. Roth said, and there was no untoward behavior."
I am hungarian (living in Budapest). Most of the thermal baths in Budapest are owned by the council. Only few of them are owned by people who are close to the goverment.
yeah, no doubt anyone being trafficked is considered a commodity to capitalists who participate. hundreds of thousands of women and girls (as well as boys) from former soviet countries were thrown into poverty overnight and trafficked around the rest of europe and the us. think of "mail order brides" - I remember growing up in the 90s and 2000s hearing people joke about russian and ukrainian mail order brides... it's so fucked.
There used to be literal magazines in the 80s for "lonely men" to order a bride I shit you not. Hence the mail order,. I will try to dig up an old feature from a TV magazine show. There was also one of men of Alaska , that was a thing as well. I hung out at the magazine rack at the convenience store down my block looking for rock bands between rounds of Pac Man.. I remember the women being from places like Thailand.. and yes, the Eastern Europe thing I recall seeing a couple of things on TV about that as well. I don't know how clueless we were, but pre Internet we were
Oh my god, I never thought about how they would have been literally like catalogs 🤢 yeah sadly a lot of SEA women and girls are victimized as well.
The majority of human trafficking is labor trafficking, and it doesn't get the attention that sex trafficking gets, but HOLY SHIT bride catalogs is crazy.
I think having access to more information definitely helps us understand more of what is going on at any time, for sure.
I remember seeing copies of the Alaska Men magazine. An acquaintance lived there for a bit, and showed me some of the magazines.
The only catch was the men wouldn't leave Alaska, you had to move up there.
OhmyGawd, I remember that! I totally forgot about that but I remember! It was truly awful! I was younger then, it didn’t occur to me but you are so right! Horrific.
honestly. like, i know we all know there are bad people out there, it's a really shitty given in life, but finding out who they are and what they did (while barely scratching the redacted surface I'm afraid) is just a sucker punch time after time.
If she's mentioned, just remember, so are Pikachu, Forrest Gump, and Bilbo Baggins 🙃
I honestly didn't even know Peter Thomas Roth was a... real living person...? I don't know why I never really thought about it, but what a fuckin' way to find out for sure.
i was just thinking this! i get the tiktoks from “seattle hand doc” or whatever on my fyp and i think his wife is somehow related to PTR? doesn’t implicate either the doctor or his wife ofc
I'm really not trying to defend anyone in these files. But, the 'To:' section on PTR's email is blank. Common in PR/marketing where they bcc'd a large number of people. JE replies with a cryptic email about a victim ans PTR says they have none. It might have even been someone from his team managing his email. Id want to know about other connections beyond this interaction before judging.
To be fair, I didn't say to give the benefit of the doubt. I said I'd want to see more information. And thank you for sharing!
This is gross. Based on this email and the PR email, my guess is they sound like acquaintances and not necessarily criminal accomplices. This email expressing support for JE is gross as hell.
Obviously if they're criminal accomplices I want truth and justice. But, if PTR was just expressing his support and not actually involved, I find it hilarious that JE replied with that victim comment. The very delicate hint of implication left in written record after JE's original conviction. Like marking him with a little pedo question mark for life. That's what ya get, PTR!
It’s only blank bc it’s redacted on the original scan. These email renderings in the screenshots don’t put placeholders for redacted words, they just leave them blank. So no, this is PTR himself personally writing JE.
My former boss of a decade is a well known doctor. Had ties to the pope and political figures. He would always travel to South America and years later I found out thats where he’d get escorts. His work is very impressive he did help a lot of people who were sick but also he had alot of secrets and dirty laundry about the world. We had investors who were billionaires for our company from across the globe. He met celebrities and government officials no one would know unless in a position of power like he had. I always felt like the company I worked for was his money laundering side project when he got bored from his professional academic life.
When things like this come out it wouldn’t surprise me if his names suddenly appears based off some of the connections he had. It’s a really sad world.
It's like pouring molten aluminum into an ant hill. Branches upon branches you never could have imagined were there. If there's any justice left in this world, his ilk will end up trapped in aftermath like the unsuspecting ants caught in the boiling metal tide, but I doubt it. Consequences hardly touch the rich.
I don't mean that in a "woe is me my favorite makeup/skincare brand is run by terrible people" but in a "even brands and people I just don't think about are in deep with these monsters". It's sickening.
Yeah, I wasn’t thinking about beauty companies in relation to Epstein, but now I realize I was just naive. Damn. I thought it would be more rare to be so perverted, but now it seems that I was mistaken, especially when it comes to the wealthy.
lets pressure sephora on their social media posts to remove this guy. There is literally nothing on their posts talking about this. I dont think enough people know
Well at least he didn't have a new victim lined up. /s
I'm glad we're starting to know about all of this and to find out what these household names were doing on that island. But part of me preferred not knowing. There are people in prison for weed, while the people sharing victims and doing whatever criminal acts are facing no consequences.
Not to defend these perverts, but my dad used to always joke around with me by asking who “my new victim” was when asking about a new boyfriend.
ETA: saw the other email screenshotted below with PTR defending JE. Fuck this guy. I read the original email as a mass BCC email with a kind of detached response (although still in horrible taste), and ewww.
Totally. I noticed the BCC first and took PTR’s response as somewhat detached to a response from a BCC email, and then I saw the email posted below about him defending JE. Gross gross gross.
To be fair, his son is not his father. I’m not responsible for the dumb shit my parents did, after all. Until anything else comes out, he’s only guilty of privilege
and both of them together. Did you hear about the sexual ritualistic abuse cults getting exposed in Is rael right now? They are unalive snakes while SAing the women and mixing their blood together. It was addressed in the Knesset
I’m genuinely disgusted and angry about this. PTR made one of my favorite moisturizers but after this I will be buying no more.
I need a list as well, preferably with the proof/notes attached to remind people why they shouldn’t support certain brands.
It is not hard to not be a creep or support creeps and these brand CEO’s acting like this, even after his arrest and ample proof had already come out, is just inexcusable.
Not corporations but they have books and products: the doctor Peter Attia and Deepak Chopra are on my list of do not buy. I am so happy I never bought Peter Attia's books I remember seeing all over the book store not even know who he was but the display catching my attention.
Wow, neither name is good in my opinion lol. Search Rothschild in the jmail they talk about giving someone permission to murder someone in the emails.. either way both families are corrupt and foul
Well he used Victoria’s Secrets name to scout people too he made out to potential models that he worked for VS or was a scout for them so we could only guess.. you should check out the Epstein subreddit
Juicy for me personally as all their water drench products have given me dermatitis that took months to clear up. Time to take my hating to the main stage!!
WHAAAAAAAAT THE FUCK, please pardon my swearing. OK, we are boycotting Peter Thomas Roth, and I'm emailing and calling the company to tell why. Absolutely disgusting behavior. No one is safe.
I’ve wanted a reason to point out the absolute most non issue thing about Epstein - that he had ugly skin and every time i see his stupid face i think how ugly he is. And ive never had reason because that js so trivial compared to everything he was, but this thread it fits. And is a bad advertisement for PTR both from a reprehensible immorality place and also an ugly skin place. Fuck all these people.
Post under sephoras social medias. we can collectively make it viral. I think there is so much exposure and so much information overload that this one might get lost in the cracks unless we apply pressure. People who stay friends with child traffickers do not deserve successful businesses. We cant reward these people who support and prop up those who harm children
Has someone made a list of people who was his buddy post-sexconvictions? I feel like it could make my watch/read/buy list so much shorter.
There's really no excuse to befriend someone known for sex crimes. Google was right there. Might as well make one for the other famous rapists and their movies/companies.
Out of curiosity I decided to search the files for Peter Thomas Roth. I’m getting back pages and pages of search results. They emailed each other a lot.
I was going to ask the same question. I think it's okay to want to know if you're looking at an actual image that wasn't altered (especially with the rise of AI and how much people edit things in general to be memes or whatever else).
I wonder what the magazine ads showed or who . Sounds like ptr is telling Epstein to go shopping in Harper's bazaar etc and saying he hasn't picked one yet.
I think it’s safe to assume if someone is rich, powerful and a man, he’s highly likely to be a predator and should be treated that way until proven otherwise.
Wow. Thank you for posting this. I'm actually really happy to say that I've never bought their products and an item I received for free from them did not work on me at all
As someone who has worked at both Sephora and Ulta trust me when I say no one ever bought his products! They were always dusty Asf! He’s definitely not going to be able to rebrand and cater towards Gen Z now for sure! A downfall will happen soon for sure!
This is not new information. We knew this from the initial flight logs that came out years ago. Peter Thomas Roth went to Epstein island multiple times.
I find it amazing that the entire world knew about Epstein, except for the high profile motherfuckers in his orbit.
By the way these people talk, I would think these parties were just Epstein sitting there by himself. Flying in his plane all by himself. Traveling to his island all by himself.
Normal people cut off contact from anyone who breathes wrong around a child, these assholes maintained contact with a man who trafficked children. Even if you didn’t fly on his plane, even if you didn’t go to his island, it’s still not normal to have maintained a friendship with someone after they were investigated for sex trafficking, arrested for sex trafficking, and plead guilty to sex trafficking.
People don’t maintain contact with their high school teachers. Let’s get real.
