The Hidden Link Between a Football Owner and a Shocking Scandal

Steve Tisch, owner of the New York Giants and a prominent Hollywood producer, was linked to Jeffrey Epstein through a series of private emails that surfaced only after thousands were released. The relationship began when a Russian model—paid by Epstein for travel and grooming—asked in 2011 to be introduced to high‑profile names. Epstein supplied Tisch with her contact details, and the two met.

The Emails

• Focus: Epstein’s role was purely to supply Tisch with young women. No philanthropy or business deals were mentioned.
• Tone: The correspondence is filled with crude descriptions and offers to introduce Tisch to aspiring actresses or other women.
• Privacy: Epstein warned that he did not want records of their talks, even requesting a phone number to avoid documentation.

Tisch’s Irony

• Past Criticism: Tisch had faced public criticism for inappropriate behavior toward women in entertainment.
• Eagerness: Despite this, he appeared eager to receive introductions from Epstein.
• Options Offered: From a university microbiology student to an exotic Tahitian model, all assured as “not working girls.”

Women’s Reports

• Several women introduced by Epstein later reported abuse.
• A lawyer noted significant harm suffered at Epstein’s hands.
• Claims of career control, false hope, and inappropriate touching were documented.

Congressional Scrutiny

• House Judiciary Committee Hearing (2013): Questions arose about credible evidence of Tisch’s involvement.
• Attorney General Response: Investigations would be conducted; the extent of Tisch’s knowledge remains unclear.
• Giants’ Statement: Described the association as “brief” and expressed regret.

End of Contact

• The last known email exchange was in August 2017, discussing a brief meeting and staying in touch.
• No evidence shows Tisch acted on Epstein’s introductions beyond a handful of brief encounters.
