A NEW York executive linked to Jeffrey’s Epstein’s “madam” Ghislaine Maxwell has been accused of having “groomed” a 14-year-old model for “sadomasochistic sex.”
Douglas Graham, 69, used company credit cards to indulge his fascination with young girls, according to alleged victim Nikki Henry, now 38.
She claims he was 45 when he first spotted her while hunting for “young women, sadomasochistic sex, and dungeons,” in a lawsuit.
Despite their 31-year age gap, he allegedly began a relationship with Ms Henry, who was 14 at the time, which escalated into brutal S&M sessions, she claimed.
This kickstarted an allegedly “abusive” relationship, in which she claims he isolated her from the world, over many decades and only ended recently.
DENIES ALL ALLEGATIONS
Graham, of Connecticut, denied all of the allegations, according to the New York Post.
He claimed that he did not start to date Henry until she was in her 20s and also refuted her allegations of abuse.
Ms Henry filed a lawsuit at Manhattan Supreme Court under New York’s Child Victim’s Act.
The law allows people to seek damages against those they have accused of molesting them.
All I have now is fear.

Ms Henry claims that she never had children or got marriage because of their relationship.
She also alleges that Graham restricted her access to the outside world and wouldn’t even let her take a bath on her own.
“All I have now is fear,” Ms Henry said in a shaky and tearful interview with The Post.
‘REFINED HIS APPETITES’
Graham was a friend of media mogul Robert Maxwell, the father of Jeffrey Epstein’s fixer Ghislaine Maxwell, the suit claimed.
Through those friendships he “refined his appetites,” according to Ms Henry.
They consisted of “Maxwell and his entourage which included Ghislaine… and other individuals of ill repute.”
‘WINED AND DINED’ ON COMPANY DIME
Graham is the former managing director of international auditing firm KPMG.
Ms Henry alleges that while he was in that role he used company credit cards to take out young women – there is no suggestion that they were aware of any such conduct.
She claimed he wined and dined her, while her father worked long hours at the UN.
Her mother remained in her family’s native home of Dominica in the Caribbean.
SHE WAS 14-YEARS-OLD
Ms Henry said: “I was 14, 15 going to Gramercy Tavern.
“He took me to see the Chippendale dancers when I was 15.
“I think I was 16 when we went to England.”
Graham strongly denies the allegations and claims that he has had to repeatedly call the police on Ms Henry and has taken out seven protection orders against her.

In response to the lawsuit, he said that all of the allegations were “clearly slanderous”.
Graham added: “This current accusation that she is making is simply a continuation of the harassment process.”
