Up to 130 Claim to Be Heirs of Jeffrey Epstein

Up to 130 Claim to Be Heirs of Jeffrey Epstein

As many as 130 people say Jeffrey Epstein could be their father, The Sun reports. 

A DNA company, which launched epsteinheirs.com, reports that as many as 130 people have announced the dead financier could be their dad.

Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died in a jail cell last year, was not known to have any children. But if anyone can prove they are his offspring, they would likely be able to claim a piece of his multi-million dollar fortune.

“Jeffrey Epstein was sexually promiscuous for so long that there is a reasonable chance he may have fathered a child,” the founder of DNA firm Morse Genealogical Services, Harvey Morse, told The Sun. “He could even be a grandfather.”

Morse Genealogical Services reports that 386 people have reached out to the DNA company with information relating to him fathering a child.

Morse said about a quarter of the calls have required a deeper dive. 

If a solid claim can be established, the company could petition a US court for a DNA test to confirm the genetic link, Morse said.

And while he isn't ready to do that, he said, "You never know who is going to call each day.”
