Less than two miles away from Jeffrey Epstein’s former mansion in Palm Beach, five survivors of the late sex trafficker’s abuse demanded Tuesday that the investigation into his crimes continue.

“I came here today to ask for one simple thing,” said Courtney Wild, who was abused by Epstein in that mansion at age 14. “To make sure this never happens again.”

She and the other women spoke at West Palm Beach City Hall in a hearing before Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.

The hearing follows over a year of global debate about the Epstein case — which has embroiled the Trump administration in scrutiny and led to the release of 3 million pages of documents pertaining to Epstein’s sex-trafficking of what the Department of Justice estimated to be over 1,000 victims.

Testimony focused on survivors’ calls for accountability, and the questions that remain unanswered.
