In a searing moment of truth during a press event on Wednesday, survivor Chauntae Davies didn’t just recount her abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein — she named names. And among them was Donald Trump.
Davies, who has been vocal for years about being lured into Epstein’s orbit under the guise of a career opportunity, took the podium alongside other survivors to share her story. But this time, her words landed heavier than ever.
“I realized how powerless I was if I spoke out, who would believe me, who would protect me? Epstein?” Davies said. “He himself was the most powerful leader of our country, Epstein surrounded himself, I’m sorry, with the most powerful leaders of our country and the world. He abused not only me but countless others, and everyone seemed to look away.”
This wasn’t just a broad indictment of the elite circles Epstein ran in — it was a direct hit on the culture of protection that surrounded him. Davies made clear that Epstein’s power didn’t just come from money or manipulation. It came from proximity to political giants. And at the top of the list: Trump.
“The truth is Epstein had a free pass,” Davies continued. “He bragged about his powerful friends, including our current president Donald Trump –– it was his biggest brag actually.”
That sentence alone turns the temperature way up. Trump’s relationship with Epstein has long been a topic of scrutiny, but Davies’s statement cuts through the spin. For her, the connection wasn’t speculation. It was something her abuser weaponized — a name dropped like a warning.
She wasn’t done.
“And while what I endured, will haunt me forever, I live every day with PTSD, I live as a mother trying to raise my child while distrusting a world that has betrayed me,” she said. “This kind of trauma never leaves you. It breaks families apart. It shapes the way we see everyone around us. But one thing is certain, unless we learn from this history, monsters like Epstein will rise again.”
There’s nothing vague here. This is a woman burned by the system, pointing directly at the silence, the complicity, and the unanswered questions. Davies, like so many survivors, is still waiting for accountability — and not just from the dead trafficker or the one person who’s gone to prison.
“There are files, government files that hold the truth about Epstein, who he knew, who owed him, who protected him and why he was allowed to operate for so long without consequence,” she said. “Why was Ghislaine Maxwell the only one held accountable when so many others played a role? Why does the government hide this information from the public?”
She’s not wrong to ask.
The web around Epstein wasn’t made up of just two people. It wasn’t spun in secret. It was tangled in the open, involving politicians, royalty, billionaires — and, apparently, the President of the United States at the time. Yet only one person has truly faced consequences.
Chauntae Davies’s words aren’t just testimony. They’re a call to rip the lid off whatever’s still being kept under wraps.
