Exclusive | Dr. Jeffrey Epstein – the Long Island neurosurgeon Jasmine Crockett confused with notorious pedophile – floats epic revenge he could exact on the congresswoman
Dr. Jeffrey Epstein, the Long Island neurosurgeon who Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) suggested could be the notorious sex trafficker, told The Post Thursday about the masterstroke of revenge he could dish out on the loud-mouthed congresswoman who dragged his name through the mud.
“I think that I should contribute money to Jasmine Crockett and then let everybody know that she also took money from Jeffrey Epstein,” Epstein told The Post.
Crockett boasted on the House floor this week that she was “gonna expose it all” after her discovery that “somebody named Jeffrey Epstein” donated to the campaign of former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY).

In her rant, the Texas Democrat strongly implied that the Manhasset doctor’s April and August 2020 contributions to Zeldin, who is now head of the Environmental Protection Agency, were actually from the convicted pedophile — despite the fact that the $1,000 donations were made months after the disgraced financier died in a Manhattan jail cell.
“Until she said something, it was never an issue,” Epstein said when asked if he’s ever been confused for the well-connected sex criminal in the past.
“I say my name and sometimes people will give me a look, or whatever,” he acknowledged.
Epstein’s response to awkward questions?
“I always look at them and say, ‘I don’t understand,’ and I make it like I’m dumb,” he said.

“Listen, that’s my name,” Epstein continued, seemingly annoyed by the fuss over his name.
“If my name was Jeffrey Dahmer when that whole thing came out — do you think that would be a problem?” he added. “Listen, anytime a doppelganger is tied to a less-than-desirable, it’s never a good situation.”
“But it doesn’t matter to me. I could[n’t] care less.”
The only thing that bothers the doc about having the name Jeffrey Epstein is “people like you calling me to ask me these questions.”
“Don’t take that the wrong way, but you couldn’t understand that — otherwise it doesn’t bother me in the least.”
