(Tony Hawke on Instagram and file photo)In one file (EFTA00038674), which contains testimony from an alleged Epstein victim filed on Oct. 22, 2024, in a call to the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center (NTOC), the victim alleged that she was abused on the island as a 13-year-old while married.
What fueled the speculation were wedding photos in the Getty Images archives, which showed they were taken by one Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein’s brother.
Did Tom Hawke get married on Epstein Island?There is no record that Tom Hawke, who has been married four times, had one of his weddings on Little St. James Island, which was owned by Jeffrey Epstein.
