Documents show Mottola crossed paths with at least three women believed to be among Epstein’s victims, including a model who told the FBI Mottola frequently visited the predator.
There has been no accusation of sexual misconduct against Mottola. His attorneys deny Mottola was a “frequent” visitor, and said any scheduled meetings between the men “reflect the kinds of meetings that would be expected of high-net-worth acquaintances who maintained an intermittent relationship primarily based on networking.”

Attorneys for Mottola maintain the former Sony Music head was not aware of any of Epstein’s crimes, stressing the men were ��not friends” and were only acquaintances.
“Mr. Mottola is one of many people who came into contact with Epstein but who had no knowledge about, let alone involvement in, Epstein’s illicit criminal activities,” they said in a statement.

In one email, Epstein asked Mottola if he had seen “the massage section” in an article about alleged sexual misconduct by former CBS CEO Les Moonves, adding “We should thank our lucky stars.”
There has been no accusation of sexual misconduct against Mottola.
