Annemarie Ettekoven publicly described Jean-Luc Brunel as a predatory figure who operated with impunity inside Jeffrey Epstein’s orbit, portraying him as a man who openly trafficked in young girls and treated sexual exploitation as routine. She stated that Brunel moved comfortably among powerful people, leveraged his modeling connections to access vulnerable girls, and acted with a confidence that suggested he believed he was protected. Ettekoven emphasized that Brunel was not a peripheral player but an active participant in the same abuse ecosystem that sustained Epstein, and she made clear that his behavior was widely known within certain circles long before authorities intervened.


Ettekoven also pointed to the importance of the evidence provided by Virginia Roberts Giuffre to French authorities, describing it as detailed, specific, and corroborative of long-standing allegations against Brunel. Giuffre’s testimony included accounts of being trafficked by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell to Brunel in France, along with descriptions of locations, timelines, and conduct that French investigators treated as credible enough to form the backbone of their case. Ettekoven underscored that Giuffre’s cooperation was central to establishing jurisdiction and momentum in France, and that without her evidence, Brunel likely would have continued to evade serious legal scrutiny for years longer than he did.
