Yes, TECHNICALLY, the headline is accurate.

This is possibly the shining example of how the press will manipulate an Epstein file story to say something that it is not. Start with the headline from the Beast:

Now to the details. The new evidence concerns details the accuser gave the FBI about items surrounding her testimony centered in South Carolina. The article is based on a lengthy report from a South Carolina paper looking into the details of another man she accused of assault. But when it comes to the Epstein files…

The woman’s claims of assault against Epstein, Trump, and (a third party) remain unproven, while no direct evidence backing up the alleged crimes has been uncovered.

Even in the sourced article from Carolina, there is zero evidence of Trump’s involvement, and even the connections to Epstein are completely tenuous, at best:

Her assault claims against Epstein, (the third party), and Donald Trump remain unproven, and the White House has vigorously denied the assertions about the president. No direct evidence has been uncovered supporting the assault claims.

Her assault claims against Epstein, (the third party), and Donald Trump remain unproven, and the White House has vigorously denied the assertions about the president. No direct evidence has been uncovered supporting the assault claims.

This was a completely deceptive framing by the Daily Beast, another sign of the desperation in the press that has yet to come up with anything conclusive to implicate the president.
