From beyond the grave, Virginia Giuffre’s voice echoes with chilling force in her posthumous memoir Nobody’s Girl, recounting a nightmare on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island: a “famous prime minister”—long rumored to be former Israeli leader Ehud Barak—choking her until she blacked out, laughing coldly as blood trickled from her desperate pleas for mercy. In graphic, heart-wrenching detail, Giuffre describes the savage assault when she was just 18, the politician’s hands tightening around her throat during forced sex, leaving her battered and begging Epstein never to send her back—only for the financier to shrug it off. This terrifying revelation, drawn from encounters Giuffre previously linked to Barak in court filings (which he has vehemently denied), exposes the brutal depths of Epstein’s elite network. As her words haunt readers worldwide, one question burns: How many more powerful men escaped justice?

From beyond the grave, Virginia Giuffre’s voice echoes with chilling force in her posthumous memoir Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, published in October 2025. In graphic detail, Giuffre recounts a savage assault on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island when she was 18: a “famous prime minister”—long rumored and previously linked in court filings to former Israeli leader Ehud Barak—allegedly choking her until she blacked out, laughing coldly as blood trickled and she begged for mercy.
Giuffre describes being instructed to accompany the politician to a cabana on Little St. James in 2002. What began as forced sex turned violently brutal: “He repeatedly choked me until I lost consciousness and took pleasure in seeing me in fear for my life,” she wrote. Battered and bloodied, she pleaded with Epstein never to send her back, only for the financier to dismiss it coldly: “You’ll get that sometimes.” Despite her terror, Epstein later flew her via the Lolita Express for a second encounter—less violent, but leaving her haunted by the “greedy, cruel look” on the man’s face.
Giuffre anonymized the attacker as the “Prime Minister” in the book, explaining she feared retaliation if she named him. However, multiple reports note that in earlier court filings—unsealed during her 2015 lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell and related litigation—she had accused Ehud Barak of sexual assault. Barak, a frequent Epstein associate who received funding from him and visited his properties, has vehemently and repeatedly denied any wrongdoing or involvement in Epstein’s trafficking network, calling the allegations false.
This revelation marked a turning point for Giuffre, shattering any illusion that Epstein protected his victims and propelling her eventual escape from the ring at age 19. Co-authored with journalist Amy Wallace before Giuffre’s suicide in April 2025 at age 41, the memoir preserves her unfiltered testimony amid a life of relentless trauma—from childhood abuse to years as Epstein’s “sex slave.”
Giuffre’s courage exposed Epstein’s web of elite enablers, leading to Maxwell’s conviction and Prince Andrew’s 2022 civil settlement (which he paid without admitting liability). Yet her account underscores how power shielded predators: no criminal charges stemmed from her claims against high-profile figures.
As Nobody’s Girl haunts readers, it reignites scrutiny of Epstein’s circle—politicians, billionaires, royals—who flew on his jets and visited his islands. Giuffre feared dying a “sex slave”; instead, her words demand accountability. How many more powerful men escaped justice, enabled by silence and settlements? Her legacy insists we keep asking.
