Palm Beach’s most famous pervert has officially been pulverized.
Construction is moving ahead on a new 10,000-square-foot mansion on the site of Jeffrey Epstein’s now-demolished Florida estate, where authorities said the late financier abused dozens of underage girls during a decades-long reign of depravity.
