Epstein’s ‘Global Girl’ Nadia Marcinko hasn’t been seen since court documents released

TW: mentions of child abuse

Nadia Marcinko, also known as Nada Marcinkova, is one of the most elusive figures in the Epstein saga. Earlier this week, news broke that a prominent lawyer in this affair, Spencer Kuvin, is calling for the CCTV from Epstein’s homes to be released to the public. Several witnesses have stated that the notorious predator had cameras in his properties, which could help to identify who actually visited him and what they did while they were there.

Over the weekend, one victim and witness who played an extremely murky part in the affair reportedly went missing. Here’s what we know about Nadia Marcinko, the model and pilot who appears to have been both a victim and accomplice of Epstein.

Nadia Marcinko's involvement with Epstein

Talking about Nadia after his interview with one victim, Detective Joseph Recarey said that ‘Epstein had purchased her from her family in Yugoslavia’. Nadia was reportedly first brought to the US when she was only 15 years old.

Nadia’s testimony, in which she pleaded the 5th - invoking her right against self-incrimination - 42 times, was revealed on Friday 5 January. It came amongst several documents made public last week from a since-settled 2015 defamation case that accuser Virginia Giuffre made against Epstein and his long-term companion Ghislaine Maxwell.

Nadia allegedly became known as Epstein’s ‘Global Girl’ and would fly around with him on his jet - nicknamed ‘The Lolita Express’ because it was used to transport underage girls. Though she is now a FAA-certified commercial pilot and flight instructor, it is unclear whether she ever flew the aircraft herself.

According to several witnesses, Nadia was forced to perform sexual acts with other girls and with Epstein on several occasions before moving into more of a procurement role. She was granted immunity as part of Epstein's 2008 deal despite the fact that no charges would likely have been filed against her based on the investigation’s findings.

Nadia Marcinko hasn’t been seen for days

Nadia reportedly remained loyal to Epstein, and went to visit him in jail over 90 times. The New York Post spoke to a neighbour on the 6 January who explained that she hadn’t seen Nadia in three days. This coincides with the first release of court documents from the Epstein affair.

As well as being a pilot, Nadia is the CEO of Aviloop, a business that ‘offers a wide range of services designed to accelerate the growth of brands in the aviation industry’. Wired magazine has referred to it as a ‘supremely odd aviation branding business’. The address for Aviloop is the same as Nadia’s home address on East 66th Street in Manhattan. It’s in a building that has long been owned by Epstein’s real estate developer brother Mark.

As more details of the dark Epstein affair come to light, Nadia’s apparent disappearance is yet another mysterious part of the puzzle.
