Ebba Karlsson to sue French state over Epstein-linked case

Former model Ebba Karlsson has announced her intention to sue the French state for “denial of justice” regarding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Karlsson, who filed a rape complaint against Daniel Siad—an alleged recruiter for Epstein—criticizes the slow pace of the French judicial system.

Siad was found dead at his home on July 20. Because he was never questioned by authorities despite multiple complaints, his death has effectively ended the public legal action against him in Paris. Karlsson stated that victims had expressed fears that Siad might be eliminated, but those concerns were not addressed by French authorities. Her lawyer, Colomba Grossi, confirmed that the lawsuit will be filed in the coming weeks.
