On one of Paris's most prestigious avenues stands the former home of Jeffrey Epstein. As the world has discovered, the late convicted paedophile's activities went way beyond simply owning real estate around the world. In a special edition, Annette Young speaks to survivors and their supporters who are urging French authorities to deepen their investigation – not only into Epstein's actions in France, but also those of his associates. 

They reveal how parts of the Paris modelling scene in the 1990s and early 2000s may have been used as a front for sex trafficking. Survivors are also calling on France to abolish the statute of limitations on sexual crimes.
