According to files released by the DOJ, Epstein donated more than $400,000 to Interlochen Center for the Arts.

That included an on-campus lodge.

He and Maxwell used it during brief stays for several summers between 1994 and 2000.

They reportedly walked their small dog around campus, using it as an icebreaker to meet two young teenage girls.

One of them, now an adult, spoke to NPR on the condition of anonymity.

She said she experienced, quote,

while unsupervised at Epstein's Lodge.

Former Administrator Russ McMahon described the campus as open and welcoming at the time.

In hindsight, mistakes may have been made.

Today, the campus has significantly increased security.
