Siegel had Knicks floor seats (season tickets) which he regularly offered to Epstein over multiple seasons. Floor seats for Knicks at Madison Square Garden cost approximately 3,000-5,000 per game (2010-2013 era), with season packages in the hundreds of thousands. Documented offers: Feb 3, 2011 (EFTA01832946: 'I have 2 knicks floor seats. If you ever want them let me know'); Mar 30, 2013 (EFTA02386001: 'April 9 I have two floor seats for knicks'); Apr 11, 2013 (EFTA02724041: 'Next wed the 17th is last regular season knick game...if you have someone cuter than me you would prefer to go with I can also give you both seats'); May 15, 2013 (EFTA02388709: 'I think it is last chance- thurs probably see knicks lose and out.

The company evolved from Isbre Holding Corp, which Siegel held 5.2% of and pitched to Epstein in 2010. Gulf connection (Kuwait phone) is investigatively significant given Epstein's Gulf network.

Siegel properties). Corporate registries in FL/NY/NM/PA/VI/UK/CA show no entities with Siegel as named officer in our ingested data, though BHC/Chris-Craft were Delaware corps. Lobbying records show no Siegel as client or lobbyist.

FL SunBiz re-verified Feb 15 2026 after entity-name search fix (corprindata→cordata). Generic name matches found but none connected to Epstein network (no known associates as officers, no known addresses). Original conclusion unchanged.

Siegel and Epstein had regular in-person meetings in NYC including: walks near 59th/Madison (EFTA02521034), meetings at the Apple Store at 767 Fifth Ave/GM Building (EFTA02521088) — which was BHC Communications' former office, book drop-offs at 9 E 71st St (EFTA02521345, EFTA02521550), and Knicks floor seat offers (EFTA02386001). Siegel was prompt for a 4pm appointment (EFTA02422822). Pattern shows personal friendship with regular social contact 2010-2013.

William D. Siegel (5.2% Isbre shareholder, ex-Chris-Craft/BHC Communications president) sent Isbre Holding Corp business plan and investor presentation directly to Epstein on March 31, 2010, saying 'Forget the other I sent. This is more recent.' Epstein immediately forwarded to Lyndon Lea (Lion Capital founder) for evaluation.

Detailed communication pattern reconstruction from DOJ documents: Epstein-Siegel communications followed a consistent pattern of Groff-mediated phone calls plus direct email. Key dates: Apr 9, 2010 (post-ride thank you + Israel article + lunch with father); Apr 29, 2010 (cell/office call); May 4-5, 2010 (Sitchin meeting setup); Aug 31-Sep 1, 2010 (multiple call attempts, Siegel on same call list as Tom Barrack and Jeffrey Leeds); Sep 16-17, 2010 (4:00 PM in-person appointment at 71st St, Giuliani introduction, call list with Mort Zuckerman, Amanda Gefter, Lawrence Krauss); Feb 8, 2013 (Control Factor book + Shirley MacLaine/Zorro Ranch); Mar 30, 2013 (Knicks offer); Apr 1-4, 2013 (walk + Apple Store + book drop-off); Apr 11, 2013 (second Knicks offer); May 5-6, 2013 (3-way email with 'paula' and 'Peter'); May 15, 2013 (playoffs); May 30, 2013 (advice request); Sep 26, 2013 (What city are you in?); Jan 2015 (post-scandal support); Jan 12, 2017 (Eva/father reference).

Siegel on same Epstein call list as Woody Merril and JP Molyneux Sep 2010

EFTA02421937: Lesley Groff reminder to Epstein on Sep 1 2010 that he wants to speak to Bill Siegel, woody Merril and JP Molyneux today. JP Molyneux is likely Jean-Paul Molyneux the luxury interior designer. This shows Siegel in the same tier of Epstein contacts as high-end service providers.

Siegel shared FrontPage Magazine interview about his book The Control Factor with Epstein (Feb 8 2013, EFTA02521014). During email exchange, Epstein and Siegel discussed Shirley MacLaine ranch near Santa Fe (Siegel became friendly with MacLaine), and Epstein referenced his Zorro Ranch property. Siegel revealed he was still engaged (not yet married). The FrontPage interview itself (Jamie Glazov) presents hardline anti-Islam analysis. Epstein forwarded/saved 14 pages of the full interview. This shows shared ideological interests between Siegel and Epstein, and that Epstein valued this content enough to archive it.

Siegel shared email thread with Epstein and paula referring to unnamed Peter May 2013

EFTA02679153: On May 5-6 2013, Epstein sent an email to both paula and Bill Siegel. Siegel replied HAH or should I say UGH and said I will send to Peter as to. The identities of paula and Peter are unconfirmed. Given Siegels conservative intellectual circles and the informal tone, these may be social contacts or business associates. The email subject was blank suggesting forwarded content.

Siegel maintained relationship after 2014 revelations. In Jan 2015, after renewed media focus on Epstein victims, Siegel emailed from St Maarten: Just read the post article and wanted to wish you a happy new year and send a wish 2015 gets all this nonsense behind you. Lets get together some time. Dismissing victim allegations as nonsense while on vacation in Caribbean, same region as Epstein properties.

Bill Siegel maintained extensive personal relationship with Epstein from at least 2010-2017. 57 DugganUSA hits. Regular phone calls via Lesley Groff, walking dates near 59th & Madison, in-person meetings at Epstein's house and Apple Store 5th Ave, Knicks floor seats offered (Mar 2013). Catherine Alt (London-based) emailed both Siegel and Epstein together (Apr 2013). Epstein wrote to Siegel Jan 12, 2017: 'she and you shared some fun stories. how are you.' Siegel was ex-president of BHC Communications (Chris-Craft Industries) and Hudson Institute trustee.

Herb Siegel (Bill's father, Chris-Craft Industries/BHC Communications chairman) was one of Epstein's original billionaire clients from his Bear Stearns era, alongside Marvin Davis. This establishes the Epstein-Siegel relationship as multi-generational: Epstein managed Herb Siegel's money in the 1980s, and Bill Siegel maintained a personal friendship with Epstein from at least 2010 through 2017. Bill references his father in the Apr 9, 2010 email: 'Let me know some times that work for lunch with my father.' The Jan 2017 email confirms: 'Just saw my father who sends his best. He is getting up there.'

Siegel shared a pro-Israel political article chain with Epstein on Apr 9, 2010, about US denial of visas to Israeli nuclear scientists from the Dimona reactor. The forwarding chain included David Steinmann (likely David J. Steinmann, neoconservative activist), Minna Elias, Michael Salzhauer, and Morry Kalimian (major NYC real estate figure). Siegel's cover note: 'Thanks again for the ride. It was great to see you and I enjoyed our conversation very much. I thought this article was interesting.' This reveals (a) Epstein gave Siegel rides in his car, (b) the friendship included substantive political discussion about Israel, (c) Siegel moved in pro-Israel/neoconservative circles overlapping with Epstein's network.

Siegel arranged a meeting between Epstein and Zecharia Sitchin, the controversial ancient astronaut theorist and author of The 12th Planet, in May 2010. Groff noted Sitchin was 'in his 90s' and Epstein would send a car. Two documents (May 5 and May 11, 2010) show Siegel making the introduction and follow-up. Sitchin died Oct 9, 2010 at age 90, meaning this meeting occurred in the last months of his life.

Bill Siegel appeared on Peggy Siegel's NYC socialite guest list (Aug 2010 Wall Street screening event) paired with Monica Crowley, the Fox News commentator and later Trump administration figure. The entry reads: 'Bill Siegel (Monica Crowley) / BUSINESS/ 300/ NEWSCORP/ NEWS AMER/ CRISCRAFT/ LI/ 400/'. The tags NEWSCORP/NEWS AMER/CRISCRAFT indicate Peggy's records still associated him with Chris-Craft/News Corp media connections. This places Siegel in the same social event network as Leon Black, David Koch, Robert Wood Johnson, Maria Bartiromo, and other Epstein-adjacent figures.

Siegel used Giuliani connection as intermediary access point for Epstein Sep 2010

EFTA02421673: Lesley Groff forwarded email chain showing Siegel attempting to arrange a meeting between Epstein and Rudy Giuliani. Groff wrote: Jeffrey wanted you to know he would rather meet with Rudy Giuliani as opposed to his partner this coming Tuesday or Thursday afternoon. Siegel replied: Ill try to reach him. Its hard to get a response quickly and I think he is traveling next week. This shows Siegel had access to Giuliani and served as intermediary.

Siegel intermediated Epstein meeting with Rudy Giuliani (Sep 2010). Lesley Groff asked Siegel to arrange meeting with Giuliani. Email: Jeffrey wanted you to know he would rather meet with Rudy Giuliani as opposed to his partner this coming Tues or Thurs afternoon. Siegel replied he would try to reach Giuliani but dont expect a quick reply. Demonstrates Siegel as active connector in Epstein network, not passive social contact.

Siegel arranged meeting between Epstein and Rudy Giuliani in Sep 2010. Lesley Groff emailed Siegel on Sep 17, 2010: 'Jeffrey wanted you to know he would rather meet with Rudy Giuliani as opposed to his partner this coming Tues. or Thurs. afternoon.' Siegel replied he would try to reach Giuliani but warned 'Don't expect a quick reply.' Indicates Siegel served as intermediary with access to Giuliani.

Bill Siegel brokered a meeting between Jeffrey Epstein and Rudy Giuliani in September 2010. Lesley Groff emailed Siegel on 9/17/2010 saying Jeffrey wanted to meet Giuliani directly rather than his partner. Siegel warned response would be slow. This places Siegel as intermediary with access to Giuliani's inner circle post-conviction.

Catherine Alt (also Catherine Lurie-Alt), London-based, was part of a three-way communication circle with Epstein and Siegel. She CC'd both on emails (Apr 2013). She sent articles to Epstein about Israel/Palestine. Alt appears to be a mutual London contact connecting Siegel and Epstein's UK network. USVI registry shows SIEGEL CAPITAL VI LLC (entity 581992, registered 12/28/2011, administratively dissolved, agent: Marjorie Rawls Roberts PC) — suggesting Siegel had USVI corporate presence.

Siegel-Epstein email exchange references Shirley MacLaine ranch in Santa Fe near Zorro Ranch Feb 2013

EFTA02521014: In Feb 8 2013 email chain about Control Factor book, Siegel told Epstein he became friendly with Shirley MacLaine last year and went to her ranch in Santa Fe. He mentioned he might go back and remembered Epstein owns half the ranch land there or something. Epstein replied describing location as between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, Zorro Ranch, you can google earth it. This shows Siegel was aware of Epsteins New Mexico property and had independent social connections (MacLaine) in the same area.

Bill Siegel authored 'The Control Factor: Our Struggle to See the True Threat' (2012, Rowman & Littlefield), a book about Western psychological denial of Islamic extremism. He sent Epstein a FrontPage Magazine interview about it on Feb 8, 2013 (EFTA02521014). Epstein replied: 'I already read it. congratulations hope to see you soon.' Siegel also shared conversations about Shirley MacLaine's Santa Fe ranch and Epstein's Zorro Ranch. This book plus the Israel nuclear visa article (EFTA02426418) and the David Steinmann/Morry Kalimian email chain reveal Siegel's deep involvement in pro-Israel and national security policy circles. Multiple copies were forwarded via Epstein's email to additional recipients.

Siegel offered Epstein floor seats for Knicks games March 2013 indicating wealth and social proximity

EFTA02386001 and EFTA02567964: On Mar 30 2013 Siegel emailed Epstein offering two floor seats for Knicks on April 9. Epstein declined (in Caribbean) but asked are you in town this week indicating desire to maintain regular social contact. Floor seats at Madison Square Garden for Knicks cost 2000-5000 per seat indicating Siegels wealth level.

Siegel introduced Catherine Alt Lurie to Epstein April 2013

EFTA02724564: Siegel emailed Epstein on Apr 4 2013 saying he had just seen Epstein and that Catherine Alt (Lurie) had called him afterwards. Siegel told Alt how great Epstein was and urged Epstein to call her in LA. Separate emails show Catherine Alt subsequently had direct correspondence with Epstein through at least Jan 2014. Siegel served as social connector expanding Epsteins network.

Siegel visited Epstein at 9E71st over consecutive days Apr 3-4 2013 for walk then book delivery and Catherine Alt introduction

EFTA02521034 EFTA02521550 EFTA02724564: On Apr 3 2013, Groff emailed Epstein about Siegel walk meeting at 2pm, Siegel was around 59th and Madison and could walk up to the house. On Apr 4 2013, Groff reported book from Bill Siegel on desk in Oval Office in manila envelope. Same day Apr 4, Siegel emailed Epstein saying great to see you today and introduced Catherine Alt. This multi-day visit pattern shows deep personal access to Epstein residence.

Siegel introduced Epstein to Catherine Lurie-Alt (London-based). April 4 2013 email from Siegel: Great to see you today. I happened to get a call from Catherine Alt (Lurie) after I got back and I told her I just saw you and how great you are etc and she is in LA tonight and tomorrow and hopes you will call to say hello. Catherine Alt had her own independent relationship with Epstein - thanked him for a donation (Apr 7 2013), met for breakfast in NYC (Oct 2013), New Year wishes. She cc'd both Siegel and Epstein on emails.

Catherine Alt (London-based, email [email protected]) emailed both Epstein and Bill Siegel on Apr 7, 2013: 'Dear Jeffrey, It was good to speak to you. I am safely back in London and due to travel at the end of the week. Please call me.' The email was sent TO: [email protected] AND Bill Siegel, indicating Alt was a shared contact who socialized with both men, possibly during the same London/NYC visit. Alt also maintained separate correspondence with Epstein about dinner plans in NYC/Paris (Passover 2014, New Year 2013).

Three-way email group with 'paula' and Siegel: On May 5, 2013, Epstein sent a message to 'paula' and Bill Siegel simultaneously (EFTA02569425). Siegel replied May 6: 'HAH\! or should I say UGH\! I will send to Peter as to.' The subject is missing but the tone suggests shared political commentary. 'Paula' may be Paula Dobriansky (neoconservative foreign policy figure) or another mutual contact. Siegel's mention of sending to 'Peter' indicates a further distribution network for whatever content Epstein shared.

Post-scandal loyalty: On Jan 3, 2015, Siegel emailed Epstein from St. Maarten: 'Just read the post article and wanted to wish you a happy new year and send a wish 2015 gets all this nonsense behind you. Let's get together some time.' This was after Virginia Giuffre's bombshell allegations (Dec 30, 2014, filing in SDFL). Siegel refers to the allegations as 'nonsense.' On Jan 12, 2017, another warm exchange: Siegel references 'Eva' (likely Eva Dubin/Andersson) having a 'JE love festival' with him. He writes: 'When you are in ny let's grab lunch or dinner, with or without Eva. Miss seeing you.'

Peggy Siegel guest list (likely for Epstein-related social event) shows Bill Siegel paired with Monica Crowley (Fox News commentator, later Trump NSC appointee). Tagged as BUSINESS with connections to NEWSCORP, NEWS AMER, CRISCRAF (Chris-Craft). Rated 300-400 in social/financial ranking. This confirms Siegel moved in conservative media/political circles and maintained NewsCorp connections post-Chris-Craft acquisition.

Isbre-Pine Inc SDNY bankruptcy 98-47644 in 1998 is unrelated to Isbre Holding Corp Norwegian glacier water

CourtListener shows Isbre-Pine Inc filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy in SDNY on Oct 23 1998 (case 98-47644) terminated Mar 22 1999. Judge Stuart Bernstein. This is a different entity from Isbre Holding Corp, the Norwegian glacier water company in which Siegel held 5.2 percent. No federal court cases found for Isbre Holding Corp. Zero SEC EDGAR filings for Isbre Holding. As a Norwegian company it would not have SEC filings unless offering securities in the US.

BHC Communications Inc shareholder litigation in Delaware Chancery 2001 related to News Corp acquisition

In Re BHC Communications Inc Shareholder Litigation (Del. Ch. 2001) 789 A.2d 1. This was litigation by BHC minority shareholders challenging the merger with News Corp/Fox Entertainment Group completed July 2001. BHC Communications (CIK 0000855433) was a Delaware-incorporated television broadcasting company (SIC 4833) and Chris-Craft Industries subsidiary. The merger resulted in BHC deregistering from SEC on Jul 31 2001. As BHC president, Siegel would have been a key figure in the merger process. Note: whether Siegel is specifically named in the opinion requires PACER access to confirm.

Zero federal court cases found for William D. Siegel personally - notable absence for corporate executive

CourtListener searches for William Siegel, William D. Siegel, and Bill Siegel returned no cases matching the BHC Communications executive. All William Siegel results were different individuals (bankruptcies in Delaware, California, Florida, Minnesota, etc.). No personal lawsuits, SEC enforcement actions, or regulatory proceedings found. For a corporate president involved in a major media merger (BHC/Chris-Craft to News Corp), the complete absence of personal litigation is notable. He may have been protected by corporate counsel or settlements. FARA search also negative. OpenSanctions negative. LittleSis negative.

SYNTHESIS: William D. Siegel represents a two-generational Epstein relationship — father Herbert Siegel (~$1.1B, Chris-Craft chairman) was an original Bear Stearns-era Epstein client (1980s), while son William maintained 7+ year personal relationship (2010-2017) functioning as active social connector. Siegel intermediated access to Giuliani (Sep 2010), introduced Catherine Lurie-Alt (London journalist), and arranged Sitchin meeting. BHC compensation ($3M/yr + $6.5M options) plus Chris-Craft/News Corp $5.3B sale provided substantial wealth. Isbre Water deal pitched to Epstein (2010) still active with Kuwait connection (Mutaz Jafar, Dec 2024 SEC Form D). USVI entity (Siegel Capital VI LLC) needs confirmation. $500K+ Republican/Trump donor. Hudson Institute board overlaps with Kravis, Steinhardt, Perle. Post-scandal loyalty through Jan 2017 dismissing allegations as 'nonsense.' Pattern: Epstein cultivated billionaire media dynasty across generations, converting financial client relationship into social access network.

Herbert Herb Siegel (father, Chris-Craft billionaire) is independently listed in Epstein doc_explorer entity database at hop_distance=1, meaning direct contact. Bill Siegel also at hop_distance=1. This means BOTH father and son had direct relationships with Epstein. Herbert Siegel (May 1928 - Aug 2023) amassed fortune through media deals: Chris-Craft 30pct stake in Warner Communications generated ~1B when Time merged with Warner in 1989; final deal selling Chris-Craft to News Corp for 5.3B in 2001. William D. inherited position and likely substantial wealth from this billionaire media dynasty.

Objective/Isbre Holdings LLC (NY DOS 2904499, Delaware LLC, filed 2003-05-09) was registered at 222 E 46th St Suite 401, NYC, c/o Objective Investments LLC. Parent entity Objective Investments LLC (NY DOS 2678543) was registered at 555 Madison Ave 6th Floor, NYC 10022 (Delaware LLC, filed 2001-09-07). This is the corporate structure behind the Isbre glacier water venture that Siegel pitched to Epstein. The Bristol PA bottling facility site was identified in the Isbre business plan (EFTA02444693).

Bill Siegel operated William Siegel Incorporated, a personal investment/advisory firm. He appeared on Lexington Realty Trust (LXP, CIK 910108) earnings calls in 2008, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2016 as a shareholder asking detailed questions about credit quality and tenant composition. He was also named in SEC Form D filings for approximately 20 SecondMarket fund vehicles (2013) and investments in Mighty Networks Inc (2018) and ScaleFactor Inc (2018) — all early-stage tech/VC investments.

He shared FrontPage Magazine articles and Family Security Matters articles with Epstein, indicating neoconservative policy orientation. He also arranged for Epstein to meet Zecharia Sitchin, the ancient astronaut theorist (May 2010).

Siegel authored The Control Factor book on Islamic threat, shared with Epstein Feb 2013

EFTA02521014 and HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_024408: Bill Siegel authored The Control Factor: Our Struggle to See the True Threat (2012), a book about Islamic radicalization and Western denial. He shared a FrontPage Magazine interview about it with Epstein on Feb 8 2013. Epstein responded positively. FrontPage describes Siegel as a lawyer and business executive who produces documentary films and assists non-profit organizations. This reveals Siegel as a conservative intellectual with neoconservative national security views, consistent with his Hudson Institute trusteeship and Republican donor profile.

New Communications Inc or News Communication is Siegels employer entity per FEC filings 2015-2024

FEC records show Siegel listing employer as News Communications Inc, New Communications Inc, or News Communication across multiple filings 2015-2024 in New York NY.

Not found in our corporate registries (FL/NY/NM/PA/VI/UK/CA). Requires NY SoS search.
