A 149-page civil lawsuit filed November 24 in Palm Beach County Circuit Court names President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and the Department of Homeland Security as defendants in allegations of human trafficking, intellectual property theft, and other claims spanning an alleged eight-year period.
The complaint, filed by a self-represented plaintiff whose identity is redacted in court documents, seeks $310 million in compensatory damages and more than $134 million in attorney fees.
Core Allegations
The lawsuit presents a complex narrative combining multiple legal claims. At its center is an allegation that defendants participated in what the plaintiff describes as a trafficking operation “identical in every material respect” to the Jeffrey Epstein network.
Human Trafficking Claims
The complaint alleges violations of Florida Statute § 787.06, which addresses human trafficking through force, fraud, or coercion. According to the filing, the alleged exploitation spanned eight year,s starting in 2018 and involved:
- Physical intimidation and threats
- Restraint, isolation, and confinement
- Financial coercion
- Fraud and deceit to lure and control the plaintiff
The lawsuit draws direct parallels to Jeffrey Epstein’s convicted sex-trafficking operation, claiming the plaintiff was “groomed” beginning in 1998, the same year she was born, and when Epstein’s Little St. James island became operational. The complaint alleges coordinated sexual assaults using methods documented in Epstein victim testimonies.
Intellectual Property Theft Allegations
A substantial portion of the complaint centers on claims that defendants misappropriated the plaintiff’s intellectual property, specifically:
- A “SAFE cybersecurity platform”
- Technology related to the Abrahamic Accords defense architecture
- A non-hormonal contraceptive gel technology
The plaintiff alleges she disclosed these inventions under promises of support and funding, particularly to the Gates Foundation, but that the defendants instead appropriated the technology without compensation. The lawsuit claims Elon Musk used the cybersecurity platform through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to secure over $580 billion in federal contracts.
The complaint requests mandatory sole-source federal contracting under Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 with a $10 billion licensing payment.
Violence and Retaliation Claims
The lawsuit also alleges five separate murder attempts against the plaintiff between 2023 and November 2025, including:
- Poisoning attempts
- Vehicular assaults
- Orchestrated physical attacks designed to appear accidental
According to the complaint, these attempts coincided with the plaintiff’s efforts to report trafficking, file police complaints, or pursue legal action.
Additionally, the lawsuit alleges retaliatory removal of the plaintiff’s infant daughter through an Arizona custody order (FC2024-004758) that the complaint claims was obtained through fraud. This is compared to tactics allegedly used in the Epstein network to silence victims through custody threats.
Geopolitical and Terrorism Allegations
The complaint makes sweeping allegations connecting defendants to international events, including:
- Claims that Trump facilitated the March 26, 2024 Baltimore Bridge collapse as “terrorism for fear installation” coinciding with the plaintiff’s daughter’s birth
- Allegations that US policy toward Gaza deliberately destroyed contraceptive supply chains to prevent deployment of the plaintiff’s contraceptive gel technology
- Claims that the Trump administration’s actions enabled Russian cyberattacks, including the CrowdStrike incident affecting airports
- Assertions that the Gates Foundation’s $2.5 billion women’s health pledge in August 2025 served as cover for suppression of the plaintiff’s technology
The lawsuit alleges DHS confirmed ongoing trafficking against the plaintiff on November 26, 2024, but failed to intervene.
The Epstein Comparison
The lawsuit’s repeated comparisons to Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking operation are central to its legal theory. Epstein was a financier who pleaded guilty in 2008 to state prostitution charges and was later arrested in 2019 on federal sex-trafficking charges. He died in jail that same year while awaiting trial.
Epstein’s case revealed a network involving wealthy and powerful individuals, leading to significant public interest in connections between Epstein and various public figures. Both Trump and Gates have acknowledged knowing Epstein, though both have denied any wrongdoing.
The plaintiff’s legal strategy attempts to use Epstein’s convicted pattern as a template to prove similar conduct by the defendants. However, establishing such a pattern requires substantial evidence beyond structural similarities, and courts typically require specific proof of each defendant’s individual conduct rather than guilt by association.
The Palm Beach County filing employs an unusual legal strategy, combining an initial complaint with a motion for summary judgment. The plaintiff claims entitlement to immediate judgment based on alleged default judgments from two prior cases:
- Arizona Superior Court, Maricopa County (Case No. CV2025-033151): The complaint references a 55-page motion for default judgment filed October 26, 2025
- New Jersey Superior Court, Essex County (Docket No. ESX-L-004446-25): An 82-page motion for final default judgment allegedly filed November 3, 2025
The plaintiff argues that because defendants in those cases allegedly never responded, all allegations should be considered admitted facts that transfer to the Florida action through the doctrines of res judicata and collateral estoppel.
However, the existence and validity of these alleged default judgments could not be independently verified. Default judgments in one jurisdiction do not automatically establish liability in other jurisdictions, and courts typically require fresh examination of claims.
Relief Sought
Beyond monetary damages, the plaintiff requests:
- Immediate return of full legal and physical custody of her infant daughter
- Voiding of Arizona custody order FC2024-004758
- Permanent injunctions barring defendants from using disputed technologies
- Mandatory $10 billion federal sole-source contract for the SAFE platform
- Disgorgement of all profits derived from the plaintiff’s intellectual property
- Expedited jury trial by December 20, 2025
The $134 million in attorney fees requested is notable given the plaintiff is proceeding pro se (self-represented). While Florida law allows pro se litigants to recover certain fees in trafficking cases, such amounts are typically based on actual legal representation.
Note that this is a civil lawsuit seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief. No criminal charges have been filed in connection with these allegations.
Trump, Musk, and Gates are not facing any active criminal charges related to these allegations. Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing in matters related to Jeffrey Epstein, who died in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges.
The case remains in preliminary stages. The plaintiff’s request for an expedited jury trial by December 20, 2025 is highly unlikely to be granted, given the complexity of the allegations and the number of defendants involved.
