"Soon-Yi Previn, the wife of the film director Woody Allen, sent emails to Jeffrey Epstein telling the convicted sex offender that the #MeToo justice movement has gone too far and smearing an underage girl at the center of a sexting case as despicable and disgusting rather than the former US congressman who went to prison for illicitly messaging the minor, according to recently released government files."
"At one point, Previn also wrote about how her stepbrother Ronan Farrow received more prestige than he deserves in a New York Times article published months after his journalism about Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced movie mogul and now-convicted sex offender, won a share of a Pulitzer prize and kicked off the #MeToo movement. Those documents emerged amid Friday's tranche of the so-called Epstein files, which built upon earlier partial disclosures and was released by the US justice department in connection with a congressional transparency law."
Soon-Yi Previn exchanged emails with Jeffrey Epstein asserting that the #MeToo justice movement had gone too far and denigrating an underage sexting victim as despicable and disgusting instead of blaming the former US congressman who went to prison for illicit messages. Previn criticized her stepbrother Ronan Farrow for receiving what she called undue prestige after his reporting on Harvey Weinstein. Government documents from a tranche of the Epstein files show continued social ties between Epstein and prominent figures, reveal gifts such as genetic testing kits, and record Previn communicating with Epstein or his assistant as late as fall 2018.
