A top fundraiser at Brown University has been placed on administrative leave -- not for any actions at Brown, but for potential issues tied to his previous role at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology.
According to Brian Clark at Brown University, “Peter Cohen began working at Brown in October 2018 as Director of Development for Computer and Data Science Initiatives. We are aware of the content of recent news reports about Mr. Cohen’s work at MIT’s Media Lab, which received funds from Jeffrey Epstein. Brown has not in its history received any funds from Jeffrey Epstein.”
Epstein’s donations to MIT include many that were hidden under “anonymous” -- due to his conviction as a sex abuser -- which reportedly was encouraged and managed by top MIT officials.
In a feature story published in the New Yorker published on Saturday, Cohen’s role masking Epstein’s donations was exposed.
“In October, 2014, the Media Lab received a two-million-dollar donation from Bill Gates; [MIT Media Lab Director Joichi] Ito wrote in an internal e-mail, 'This is a $2M gift from Bill Gates directed by Jeffrey Epstein.' Cohen replied, 'For gift recording purposes, we will not be mentioning Jeffrey’s name as the impetus for this gift.' A mandatory record of the gift filed within the university stated only that 'Gates is making this gift at the recommendation of a friend of his who wishes to remain anonymous.' Knowledge of Epstein’s alleged role was usually kept within a tight circle. In response to the university filing, Cohen wrote to colleagues, 'I did not realize that this would be sent to dozens of people,' adding that Epstein 'is not named but questions could be asked' and that 'I feel uncomfortable that this was distributed so widely.' He wrote that future filings related to Epstein should be submitted only 'if there is a way to do it quietly.' An agent for Gates wrote to the leadership of the Media Lab, stating that Gates also wished to keep his name out of any public discussion of the donation,” reported the New Yorker.
Beyond Gates, Apollo Global Management’s CEO Leon Black is tied to Epstein and directed funds to MIT.
In August, GoLocal reported that Black’s Apollo Global Management is financing the merger of GateHouse Media and Gannett with a $1.79 billion term loan — a loan that comes with a steep interest rate of 11.5%.
The person who is nearly guaranteed to make the most money on this mega-merger deal -- a close friend of registered sex offender Epstein -- is Black.
Black is one of the titans of Wall Street and over the past 20 years has had a close personal relationship with once convicted pedophile Epstein.
The federal indictment filed in June by the Department of Justice cited multiple cases of sexual abuse by Epstein, “In or about 2002, Minor Victim-1 was recruited to engage in sex acts with EPSTEIN and was repeatedly sexually abused by EPSTEIN at the New York Residence over a period of years and was paid hundreds of dollars for each encounter. EPSTEIN also encouraged and enticed Minor Victim-1 to recruit other girls to engage in paid sex acts, which she did. EPSTEIN asked Minor Victim-1 how old she was, and Minor Victim-1 answered truthfully.”
Epstein along with Black and Black’s wife served as the directors of the Leon Black Family Foundation in the years leading up to Epstein’s first plea deal that made him a registered sex offender and for four years after Epstein’s conviction.
In 2008, Epstein pled guilty to a felony charge of solicitation of prostitution involving a minor, and was sentenced to 18 months in prison; he served 13, and was granted work release, which allowed him to commute to an office outside the jail six days a week. During his jail time, he continued to serve as a member of the board of the non-profit.
The foundation has donated tens of millions of dollars in gifts to top prep schools, universities including Brown, Harvard and other members of the Ivy League, as well as top art museums.
Billionaire Black has homes all over the world and according to the Wall Street Journal owns one of four versions of Edvard Munch’s The Scream, acquired at an auction price of $119.9 million in 2012
Brown’s Review of Cohen’s Role
“We are engaged in a review of available information regarding Mr. Cohen in the context of Brown University policies, core values and the University’s commitment to treat employees fairly. Mr. Cohen is on administrative leave pending this review. The review does not constitute any adverse determination, and it would be premature to speak to any potential outcomes,” said Clark.
“Consistent with Brown’s responsibility as a fair employer, details of assessments of individual employees are not discussed publicly. In general terms, I can share that Brown conducts reviews under a range of circumstances, which include assessing alignment with Brown’s values, the University Code of Conduct and other policies, compliance with any applicable regulations, laws and statutes, and capacity to perform the requirements of an appointed position,” said Clark.
