(HP)–According to the New York Daily News, Epstein and the woman had a three-year sexual relationship and often exchanged “twisted text messages.”
The Spectator reports that Epstein is married to another Columbia political science professor, Sharyn O’Halloran, though a recent update to his Facebook page says he is single. The couple was featured in a 2008 Spectator article about professors who “bring love to work.”
“Our complementary skills lead to a great partnership,” O’Halloran told the Spectator.
One student described Epstein, who was teaching a class on game theory this semester, as a “very nice guy.” Outside of his professorial duties, Epstein also blogged for this website, on topics ranging from torture to Sarah Palin.
Epstein is currently on administrative leave.

What the fuck.
Why is it so wrong for him if they are both consenting adults? It is no more unnatural than one man sticking his p—s into another man’s rectum. That’s not a biological function of the rectum and neither is a man and his daughter natural so how can one be ok and not the other?
@pimp Incest inrceases the risk of mental retardation and and weaknes DNA. I’m ass that’s why it’s Illegal
These white people r CRAZY! I mean C’mon son, ur daughter? ??? GOD PLEASE HAVE MERCY ON THEIR SOULS.
Yes God, please have mercy after the fact, as ur mercy seems to be in short supply before despicable things occur.
i had taken Epstein’s class and he was a good teacher. I just cant believe how much of a nasty scumbag he is. Wow im so surprised all this dirt is bein dug up about the school. Ivy’s need to stick together. We’re embarrassing ourselves! People need to stop all these disgusting things and the school needs to become more aware of what is going on. We’re supposed to be one of the most prestigious in the world, and they’re making us look like a bunch of clowns. SMH!
