There are probably thousands of men and women with some kind of tangential association with Jeffrey Epstein, from Bill Clinton to Donald Trump, to Prince Andrew, to many prominent Democrats as Epstein was a large fundraiser and participant in the Democrat party. To various billionaires and capains of industry.

One I ran across recently caught my attenion :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Seckel

Seckel being an intellectual and scientist of some notoriety, with decades of shady dealings of his own, unrelated to Epstein, mixed together with a lot of other science, philosophical, and parapsychology groups, and his own personal achievements.
And he is either the creator, or a participant in creating, the "Darwin" symbol used on cars (the secularist-left's answer to the "Jesus fish" used by Christians on their cars).

But Seckel interviewed Epstein as part of a science conference held on "Pedophile Island" with a number of other scientists, and Seckel posted the Epstein interview on his website.

Quote
Collaboration with Jeffrey Epstein


In 2009, Seckel was involved in organizing a science conference with financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Mindshift conference took place in early 2011 on Epstein's private island Little Saint James.[30][31] In attendance were scientists Murray Gell-Mann, Leonard Mlodinow, Gerald Sussman,[27] and Frances Arnold,[31] in addition to the actor and cryptocurrency proponent Brock Pierce.[30][31]

An interview between Jeffrey Epstein and Al Seckel discussing perception appeared on Epstein's science website on October 17, 2010.[32]



Somehow (completely unrelated to Epstein), Seckel reminds me a bit of CHARIOTS OF THE GODS author Erich Von Daniken...

... who, like many, I was fascinated with in the 1970s (even though, while Daniken's work was lively reading, I never quite fully accepted as true a lot of what Daniken said. And as it turns out, while maybe he still has a lot of recognition in the UFO science / pseudo-science community, he has unquestionably had some shady or even criminal episodes of fraud in his 50-year career.)

In addition to Von Daniken's books, there was a 17-page article about his work in MARVEL PREVIEW magazine 1, in 1975 :
