Instagram accounts on Thursday, the skin-care guru apologized for his relationship with Epstein. “Jeffrey Epstein was my physics teacher when I was 17 in the 12th grade at the Dalton School,” he wrote. “We stayed in touch casually in the nearly five decades that followed.” Roth said he visited Epstein’s home in Manhattan “once to show him some skin-care products,” and said he “was never present with him for any activity that was inappropriate, never attended his parties, never flew on his plane, and never traveled to his island.” “When allegations surrounding Epstein’s behavior first surfaced, I was in disbelief that he could commit such heinous crimes. I was gravely mistaken,” Roth continued. “I’m horrified by the crimes he committed and the lasting impact they have had on his victims, and I deeply regret maintaining any association with him after leaving the Dalton School.” This isn’t the first time Roth has been forced to acknowledge his history with Epstein. In 2019, he told theabout his memories of him as a teacher, recalling him as “brilliant” and saying he never heard of any misconduct by him while he worked at the school in the 1970s, before his career in finance began. “He was like your friend, you know?” Roth said.
