Epstein was also investigated and prosecuted in 2008 when the DOJ intervened to give him a sweetheart deal.”ANDREW TATE, BROTHER TRISTAN SUED FOR ALLEGEDLY SEX TRAFFICKING AMERICAN WOMAN TO FOREIGN COUNTRY Their homecoming comes after the Financial Times reported that U.S. officials expressed interest in the brothers’ case to their Romanian counterparts at least twice in recent days.Along with his 37-year-old brother, he has been accused of luring women to Romania for sexual exploitation in a 2022 case in which prosecutors suffered a major setback after a judge found there were too many problems to bring it to trial.The brothers could not immediately be reached for comment.In a second criminal case opened in August 2024, they are also being investigated for allegedly trafficking underage girls.
