Barbro Ehnbom stated she would have severed ties with Jeffrey Epstein had she known about his crimes, despite having maintained contact even after his 2008 conviction for sex offenses against minors.
In a recent LinkedIn post, Swedish business leader Barbro Ehnbom expressed her regrets regarding her past contact with Jeffrey Epstein. She emphasized that if she had been aware of his crimes, particularly in relation to minors, she would have immediately cut off all ties. This admission comes despite her having close interactions with Epstein even after he was sentenced to prison for sexual offenses in 2008, during which time he donated significant amounts of money to institutions associated with her.
Ehnbom's post also noted her strong abhorrence for the actions Epstein committed against numerous girls, marking a stark contrast between her current feelings and her past associations. Notably, she had initiated a scholarship program aimed at supporting women, which benefitted from Epstein's donations. Furthermore, within the array of connections documented in the Epstein files, it was revealed that she had not only sent him pictures of individuals from her network but had also introduced him to Swedish royalty, specifically Princess Sofia.
The implications of Ehnbom's past associations raise questions about the responsibility of individuals in maintaining ties with known offenders. As public scrutiny grows regarding associations with Epstein, especially among high-profile individuals, her statements reflect a broader reckoning within societal networks that once intersected with Epstein. Such disclosures contribute to ongoing discussions related to accountability and the collective response to sexual exploitation and abuse within various social circles.
