Retired New York financier Howard Rubin and his former personal assistant were charged in a federal indictment Friday with running a years-long sex trafficking ring that allegedly involved violence so severe that one woman required surgery, prosecutors said.
Joseph Nocella Jr., U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said Rubin used his "wealth to mislead and recruit women to engage in commercial sex acts, where Rubin then tortured women beyond their consent, causing lasting physical and/or psychological pain, and in some cases physical injuries."
A newly unsealed federal indictment charged Rubin, 70, and the assistant, Jennifer Powers, 45, with sex trafficking and transporting women in interstate commerce for sex acts....
Rubin was also charged with bank fraud after prosecutors alleged that he misrepresented information to banks while securing financing for Powers' mortgage, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a news release....
The indictment alleges that from 2009 to 2019, Rubin recruited dozens of women “to engage in commercial sex acts with him involving bondage, discipline, dominance, submission and sadomasochism,” known as BDSM. Prosecutors, however, said in the indictment that his conduct was “beyond the scope of the women’s consent.”
Hey, I understand the desire for sex. I do not understand the BDSM stuff at all. I am a romantic.
Can I claim to be surprised that this guy worked for George Soros? 9/26/25 Morningstar:
Howard Rubin was known on Wall Street for decades as a hard-charging bond trader who was portrayed in a best-selling book, and later as a fund manager for billionaire investor George Soros.
Will you be surprised to know that the Florida prosecutor from that last post was elected with Soros money?
