杰米·拉斯金表示，一封“令人震惊”的邮件询问一名年轻女子是“给我的，还是你留着自己享用”。一名有权势的民主党议员呼吁对巴德学院前校长莱昂·博特斯坦展开刑事调查。此前，国会调查人员发现了一封博特斯坦写给被指控进行性贩运的杰弗里·爱泼斯坦的邮件，博特斯坦在邮件中询问一名年轻女子是“给我的，还是你留着自己享用”。
Jamie Raskin says ‘startling’ email asked whether young woman was ‘for me, or are you keeping her for yourself’ A powerful Democratic lawmaker has called for a criminal investigation into former Bard College president Leon Botstein after congressional investigators uncovered an email from Botstein to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein in which he says Botstein asked if a young woman was “for me, or are you keeping her for yourself”.
最新进展似乎引发了博特斯坦立即辞去所有与巴德学院相关的职务，包括他的教授职位以及在巴德音乐项目中的角色。博特斯坦领导该学院已有50年之久，直到最近才卸任校长职务。
The latest development appears to have triggered the immediate resignation of Botstein from all Bard-affiliated positions, including his professorship and roles in Bard’s music programs. Botstein had led the college for 50 years and only recently stepped down as president.
