Epstein's lawyers say he never used "decoy" Austrian passport. Uhhhh...




JUST IN: Prosecutors respond to Jeffrey Epstein’s excuse for why he had an Austrian passport.

Epstein said he never used it, but it had “numerous ingress and egress stamps,” including for France, Spain, the UK, and Saudi Arabia in the 80s. cc: @CourthouseNews

Wait - he had an Austrian passport AND a Saudi passport? hatrack Jul 2019 #1
Were these both fake? Many countries allow you citizenship HipChick Jul 2019 #2
It looks like it was Austrian but had a stamp from Saudi Arabia ProudLib72 Jul 2019 #3
I think that the Austrian passport said he was a resident of Saudi Arabia Orangepeel Jul 2019 #4

I'm a little confused, too, since a few days ago they were saying the passport was issued by Saudi.

The info I read when the passport story came out was that he had a fake passport (his picture but different name) from an as of then unnamed country that said he was a resident of Saudi Arabia.

Of course, that could have been wrong info.
