A woman who says she was raped at age 15 by Jeffrey Epstein is suing his estate, his alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell and three unnamed defendants, saying they conspired to maintain and conceal a sex trafficking ring.The accuser, Jennifer Araoz, told reporters Wednesday that Epstein, who died Saturday in prison by suicide, and his "network of enablers" stole her youth, identity, innocence and self-worth."While I am angry that Mr. Epstein's death means he will never personally answer to me in a court of law, my resolve to pursue justice is only strengthened," she said. "My story and my experiences -- those who enabled and facilitated his criminal behavior-- none of that is diminished or immunized simply because he apparently chose to take his own life."The lawsuit comes on the first day of a one-year period when any adult survivors of child sexual abuse can sue an abuser or a negligent institution in New York state court, no matter how long ago the abuse took place. The one-year window was created as part of a law signed in February."Fortunately, New York's Child Victims Act now affords survivors like me legal recourse," Araoz said. "Today, I am exercising my rights under that law. Today, I am starting to reclaim my power."Araoz alleges Epstein repeatedly committed sexual assault and battery against her when she was 14 and 15 years old and that he forcibly raped her. Araoz has not interacted with Maxwell, her attorneys said, but the lawsuit alleges Maxwell conspired to maintain and conceal the sex trafficking ring.Three Jane Does who also allegedly participated in the scheme are not named in the suit, which refers to them as "recruiter," "secretary," and "maid."Araoz alleges that all the defendants "have intentionally inflicted emotional distress" upon her, as well as "committed negligent infliction of emotional distress," causing her to suffer "extreme emotional injuries."Attorneys for Epstein and Maxwell did not respond immediately Wednesday to requests for comment about Araoz's suit. Maxwell and her representatives previously have denied she engaged in sexual abuse or sex trafficking. Epstein had pleaded not guilty to federal charges of conspiracy and sex trafficking of minors.Araoz came forward to authorities after the criminal charges were filed, her attorneys said Wednesday. She had been fully cooperating with federal prosecutors before Epstein's death and has agreed to cooperate in their investigation of his potential accomplices, they said.The lawsuit, provided to CNN by Araoz's attorneys, seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial. A draft version of the complaint was delivered to Epstein while he was in prison, about three weeks before his death.Araoz previously shed her anonymity and spoke out last month about Epstein's abuse in an interview with NBC's "Today" show.What the lawsuit statesCiting court records, Araoz's lawsuit alleges Maxwell -- the British socialite and Epstein's alleged madam -- "participated with and assisted Epstein in maintaining and protecting his sex trafficking ring, ensuring that approximately three girls a day were made available to him for his sexual pleasure."It also alleges she provided "organizational support to Epstein's sex trafficking ring, identifying and hiring the recruiters of underage girls" and "scheduling appointments with these underage girls" for Epstein's "sexual pleasure," as well as "intimidating potential witnesses to Epstein's sex trafficking operation."It alleges Maxwell "identified and hired" the "Recruiter" on Epstein's behalf to procure underage girls from the performing arts school Araoz attended near Epstein's lavish Manhattan apartment.Araoz began visiting Epstein's apartment in 2001 with the "recruiter," and at the end of the visits, the "secretary" was directed to give her 0 to purportedly "help" her out, the lawsuit states.After about a month of making the visits with the recruiter, "upon information and belief, Defendant Maxwell, began contacting" Araoz directly and "scheduling arrangements for her to visit Epstein's home alone."The suit details the alleged encounters, which Araoz has detailed to media. Epstein told her during one of her first visits alone to his Manhattan apartment, "you really should be a model," "I'll bet your body is incredible," and "in order to help you with your modeling career, I will need to see your body," the suit states.It alleges Epstein complimented her repeatedly about her breasts and instructed her to take off her top, "then immediately started feeling" her breasts and rubbing her nude shoulders.He asked her to give him a massage, which she did, and afterward he turned over, removed his towel and began masturbating, the suit states.Araoz felt "intimidated, so she did as she was told," the suit says.Owing to the money Epstein was giving Araoz, he said, "I take care of you, you take care of me," the suit states. He would tell her not to tell anyone about what occurred during the home visits, which routinely included massages, the suit states.After that, Epstein would call Araoz directly, and the sexual encounters became more aggressive and escalated, the suit states. The encounters would continue on a "weekly basis" and a "maid" would leave 0 in cash in a drawer in the massage room.During one encounter, Epstein held Araoz tightly and forcibly raped her, the lawsuit states. After that "brutal rape," Araoz never returned to the apartment, ignored Epstein's calls and transferred schools to avoid him, the suit states. 5566

A new face is serving up coffee as a Starbucks barista in the Hyatt Place Boca Raton in Florida. It's the latest promotion for Angie Diaz in her 8 months in hospitality. Diaz moved from Colombia, so she had been learning a new language while also finding a job. She's deaf, which made the transition that much more complicated, learning the signed and written words of her new community. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports only about 19% of people with disabilities are employed in the United States, far less than the general population. "In the past, I really had a lot of struggles and I really had to open myself up to opportunities," Diaz signed.Diaz went through the Disability Services Hospitality Training Program with CareerSource in Palm Beach County. She learned hospitality skills while being given fair access to an interpreter in class. When she was first hired at the hotel, she was provided an interpreter for her training there. "My team members, when they found out I was deaf, they didn't really know how to handle it. They thought maybe it would be really hard to communicate," she signed. General Manager Sharon Ballard said Diaz quickly helped the coworkers adjust. "She's no different from anyone else, it's just the few alterations we have to communicate with her," Ballard said.Ballard said Diaz gave such excellent customer service, she was promoted to the position of a Starbucks Barista. "So she's working a bit one-on-one with the guests, and then hopefully we'll be able to get her at the front desk as well. To just move her up in her career," Ballard said.Hyatt Place Boca Raton has provided a machine that allows Diaz and other employees to basically "text" back and forth quickly on two computers facing each other. Diaz, however, suggests there are many ways to communicate, even if a person hasn't learned sign language yet, including using gestures and facial expressions."I have a really go-getter personality, and I showed them that we can find ways to communicate," she explained.Diaz is a model of success. Four other associates who are deaf have been hired in Hyatt hotels in the area, all from the CareerSource program. "All of this collectively has helped me become who I am. And I feel like I have really established myself as a deaf community member here. And I continue to learn and I feel so proud about that," Diaz explained.The 2394

A New Jersey teenager is proving that you can do anything if you just set your mind to it.Despite being in and out of homelessness, 17-year-old Dylan Chidick has been accepted into 17 different colleges -- and that's just what he's received so far."I was really excited because I'm going to be the first person in my family to go to college," Chidick said.He added, "Going through homelessness let me know that there's going to be obstacles, but as long as (our family is) together, we can get through it."With offers from schools like Albright College, Ramapo College and Caldwell University, Chidick has a tough decision ahead. However he's still waiting to hear back from his top choice, the College of New Jersey.He applied to about 20 colleges and universities in total. Sending in applications can get pricey, but Chidick was able to obtain application fee waivers.He was inspired by his mom's courageChidick's family moved to the US from Trinidad when Chidick was just 7 years old, but after becoming citizens, they endured countless heartaches.The single mother, Khadine Phillip, and her three kids were in and out of homelessness. And Chidick's two younger twin brothers live with serious heart conditions.Chidick said he was inspired by his mother's courage to reach out to the non-profit Women Rising and ask for help. The center put the family in permanent supportive housing, giving Chidick a safe place to study."Seeing my family become vulnerable and opening themselves up to accepting help is basically what created my drive to never experience that ever again," Chidick said.The student said experiencing homelessness and balancing school was difficult."There was lights out at a certain time, and we weren't able to be the way that we usually are at home," Chidick said.At school, Chidick was initially hesitant to let others know about his situation."The entire administration staff was very supportive, but I didn't want anyone to know about it at first," he said. "But I realized it was OK to let people in."Chidick worked to become the senior class president at Henry Snyder High School in Jersey City and was inducted into the Honor Society. He also served on the city-wide student council and said he tried to "float around" to every club.He hopes to study political science and historyAfter he picks his home for the next few years, Chidick hopes to major in political science and minor in history."I like the politics side of everything and understanding how the government works," Chidick said.History is his favorite subject, so he plans to take plenty of courses in that subject as well. 2628
