Tom Pritzker was accused by Virginia Giuffre of allegedly having s*x with her

The hundreds of pages of documents collected from the 2015 defamation lawsuit revealed several shocking details. One such unsealed document disclosed a 2016 deposition in which Giuffre claimed that Hyatt Hotels chairman, Tom Pritzker, allegedly had s*x with her.

According to The Daily Mail, Giuffre, an alleged victim of Epstein's massive s*x trafficking ring, was asked by attorney Laura Meninger if she ever had s*x with Tom Pritzker, to which Giuffre replied:

“I believe I was with Tom once."

Giuffre never stated that she was forced by Epstein or Maxwell to have s*x with Tom Pritzker. However, at a later point in the deposition, she said that she was sent by Maxwell to have s*x with the "owner of a large hotel chain" at "his cabana townhouse thing" in France, The Daily Mail reported.
