Lifetime is following up its acclaimed Surviving R. Kelly documentary with a new show exploring what’s happened since it aired in January. It’s also prepping another doc on an accused sexual predator: Jeffrey Epstein.
Surviving Jeffrey Epstein will expand Lifetime’s efforts in the investigative documentary space following the well-received and Emmy-nominated Surviving R. Kelly. The project will look into how Epstein, a billionaire financier, used his money and connections to wealthy and powerful people to allegedly shield predatory behavior with girls, even after registering as a sex offender in 2008 for a conviction of procuring prostitution from a minor.
Epstein was arrested on July 6 and charged with sex trafficking and conspiracy to traffic minors for sex. Prosecutors allege that he brought as many as 40 girls under 18 to his mansion for the purposes of sex.
