# The Paris Pipeline: David Blaine, Ramsey Elkholy, and the "Slovak Girl" Chain
**What the DOJ documents reveal about celebrity-assisted procurement in January 2014**
The Pattern
We've indexed 204,000+ documents from the DOJ Epstein release. When you search for email correspondence that immediately precedes victim encounters, patterns emerge.
One pattern we haven't seen reported: **Ramsey Elkholy** acting as a procurer, using **David Blaine's** celebrity status as bait.
The Documents
January 24, 2014 - The Setup
**EFTA01939827** - Epstein to Ramsey Elkholy:
> "david blaine is also with me there. we can invite these girls to a fun dinner"
Epstein is in Paris. David Blaine is with him. They're planning to "invite girls."
January 25, 2014 - The Offer
**EFTA01937739** - Ramsey Elkholy to Epstein:
> "Slovak girl is in Paris and she can meet you and David w a friend. She's telling me her Slovak number doesn't work, so I can connect you guys by email."
The pattern: Girl + friend. Always more girls.
**EFTA01940244** - Ramsey following up:
> "not sure who her friend is. still waiting"
He's actively sourcing the friend.
January 26, 2014 - The Technique
**EFTA01936481** - Ramsey Elkholy reveals the method:
> "she finally responded when I mentioned 'David Blaine' (typical model)...the only problem is that she's working every day. But maybe after work one day she can come out w her friend (also very hot). So the best thing is to have David email her, I think that would do the trick. **Then David can suggest all 4 of you go out. Probably best to meet at your place first, so they see your home**"
Read that again:
1. Celebrity name used as bait: "she finally responded when I mentioned 'David Blaine'"
2. The dismissive aside: "(typical model)"
3. The friend chain: "come out w her friend (also very hot)"
4. The location: "meet at your place first, so they see your home"
This is procurement. The celebrity is the lure. The home is the destination.
The Blaine-Epstein Relationship
This wasn't a one-off. The documents show regular contact:
| Document | Date | Content |
|----------|------|---------|
| EFTA01941827 | Jan 9, 2014 | Epstein to Blaine: "come by tomorrow afternoon 12?" |
| EFTA01939476 | Jan 8, 2014 | Epstein to Blaine: "going out to eat with woody on sun eve 26th. you are welcome" |
| EFTA01941639 | Feb 3, 2014 | Epstein to Blaine: "are you still in paris?" |
| EFTA01934254 | Feb 16, 2014 | Epstein to Blaine: "Do your card guys like to see woody?" |
| EFTA01932719 | Mar 20, 2014 | Blaine sends Epstein "BILLGATES_EMAIL.mov" |
Woody Allen dinners. Bill Gates videos. Paris trips together.
The Other Elkholy Chain
Ramsey Elkholy wasn't just working Paris. Earlier documents show a pattern:
**EFTA02433854** (Dec 2009) - Elkholy to Epstein:
> "help me w a pitch, I'm not really that close w this girl, maybe we can say bath and body shop...here are some images"
He's sending photos of "Julia" and discussing cover stories.
**EFTA02444059** (Oct 2009) - Elkholy to Epstein:
> "we could set something up, a 'casting' or something...She would meet with..."
"Casting" as cover for procurement.
Who Is Ramsey Elkholy?
The documents identify him as someone in Epstein's social circle who actively sourced women. He:
- Sent photos of potential targets
- Arranged meetings in multiple cities
- Used "casting" and "Victoria's Secret" as cover stories
- Leveraged celebrity connections as bait
- Provided passport information for trips (EFTA02492114)
The Antoine Verglas Connection
**EFTA02298434** (Aug 2012) shows another piece of the pipeline:
> "I've scheduled Antoine Verglas the photographer for Monday the 20th. JE wants you guys to do a group shot that day to mimic the Helmut Newton photo below"
Antoine Verglas - celebrity photographer. Helmut Newton-style shoots. Groups of women.
The modeling/photography infrastructure wasn't just for legitimate work.
What This Means
The January 2014 Paris chain shows:
1. **Celebrity participation**: David Blaine's name used explicitly as procurement bait
2. **Active coordination**: Ramsey Elkholy as intermediary/procurer
3. **The friend chain**: Always "bring a friend"
4. **Location control**: "Meet at your place first"
5. **Ongoing relationship**: This wasn't isolated - regular dinners, trips, shared contacts
