Email between Steve Tisch and Jeffrey EpsteinThe emails between Epstein and Tisch date back to 2013, when Epstein was already convicted of procuring a child for prostitution. The emails revealed that Tisch, now 76, emailed Epstein asking if a “Ukrainian girl” was a “pro or civilian.”
Tish asked Epstein in a separate email about a woman the convicted pedophile described as “Tahitian” named “Emily,” wondering if she was a “working girl?” Another time, he asked if a certain woman was “fun.”

“Is my present in NYC?” Tisch asked Epstein in an email.
When Epstein said yes, Tisch replied, “Can I have my surprise to take to lunch tomorrow?”
Tish later spoke about the emails, saying, “We had a brief encounter where we exchanged emails about grown women and, in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy and investments. I did not take him up on any of his invitations and did not visit his island. As we all know now, he was a terrible person and someone I deeply regret associating with.”

At least one exchange between Tisch and Epstein occurred during an NFL meeting, according to the emails. When Tisch offered Epstein two tickets to his suite to a Giants game, Epstein invited him to his private Caribbean island.
It is not yet clear if any penalties will be levied against Tisch or the Giants. However, owners are subject to the NFL’s personal conduct policy often applied to player suspensions.
The Tisch family owns 40 percent of Giant. Steve Tisch (Executive Vice President/Chairman of the Board) has served as lead partner since the death of his father, Bob Tisch, in 2005.
