The Trump Administration Just Deported an Epstein Victim.
Amanda Ungaro was on Jeffrey's plane at 17. The shares a child with a man working in the current administration. She has been sitting in ICE custody since June. Weeks ago she was deported.
Overview:
In July of this year, while immersed in Epstein’s never ending rabbit hole — I stumbled upon Paolo Zampolli.
Paolo is the former modeling agent who brought Melania to the United States in the late 90’s to meet Donald Trump.
Paolo owned ID Models in NYC, and worked closely with Donald Trump’s Trump Models, Jean-Luc Brunel, John Casablancas, Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Clinton, and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Paolo went from working as a modeling agent, to now being a part of Trump’s current administration, a board member of the Kennedy Center, and United Nation diplomat.
Paolo is currently in a messy custody battle with his common-law wife, Amanda Ungaro, who came to the United States from Brazil as a young teenager to pursue modeling.
She was signed to Paolo’s ID Models, and within two years, she was on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane with Jean-Luc Brunel at just 17 years old.
She and Paolo share a child together, and Amanda is the United Nations Ambassador to Grenada.
Shockingly, despite being UN Diplomat and the wife of a figure in this current administration, Amanda was arrested under very strange circumstances in June of 2025 (right when the Epstein conversation flooded mainstream media) in Miami and deported… without her child.
Now her mother, Tania, is filing for custody of Paolo and Amanda’s child and seeking a restraining order against him. I’m going to walk you through what I have discovered about Paolo Zampolli over the past few months, and why I think this situation really needs to be looked at under a microscope.
Who is Amanda Ungaro?:
Amanda Ungaro was born in February of 1985 in Brazil. As a young teenager (14-15) she came to the United States to pursue modeling.
She was signed to Paolo Zampolli’s (New York City based) ID Models after arriving in the United States.
It is unknown at this time how Amanda came from Brazil to the United States, but it is very well known that Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Paolo Zampolli, and Jean-Luc Brunel often utilized Brazil (amongst other countries) to hunt for girls, presenting themselves as “modeling/talent scouts”.
It is also known that Jean-Luc Brunel and Ghislaine Maxwell spent time “laying low” in Brazil after Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest. The ties between Brazil and the co-conspirators of this case are extensive and well documented.
Nonetheless, a few years after being signed to Paolo Zampolli’s ID Models, Amanda Ungaro’s name would appear on Jeffrey Epstein’s Lolita Express flight logs in June of 2002.
Amanda Ungaro would have been just 17 years old at the time she flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s Lolita Express. She was accompanied by Jean-Luc Brunel (amongst others) — the French modeling agent whose legacy included a decades long friendship and love of predation that he shared with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Jeffrey and Ghislaine utilized Jean-Luc Brunel and his position as a modeling agent to lure in young girls for Jeffrey and his friends to abuse. Jean-Luc Brunel’s actions stooped as low as flying three 12 year old girls to the United States from France to be harmed by Jeffrey… as a birthday gift.
Around 19-20 years old, Amanda Ungaro began a “romantic” relationship with her modeling agent, Paolo Zampolli. They have a son together, and are currently in a very messy custody battle over him in New York. Amanda was also appointed as the United Nations Diplomat of Grenada after son was born.
In 2018, Amanda attempted to leave Paolo, but Paolo wouldn’t allow it. When she wanted to split up and travel back to her home country of Brazil, Paolo called upon his connections within in the court system and at Homeland Security to ensure everything played out in his favor.
Paolo even admitted to having Amanda’s name flagged through Homeland Security, which would alert him if she tried to leave the country and ultimately stop her from traveling outside of the United States.
In September of 2024, she filed again for custody of their child along with child support, and has since been embroiled in a very aggressive legal battle with Paolo that is still active.
In June of 2025, Amanda was arrested in Miami after an anonymous tip was made through CrimeStoppers resulting in a sting operation was conducted at Amanda’s place of work.
At the time of her arrest, Amanda was working as a receptionist/assistant at what is reported to be an “illegal medical facility”. At this business, cosmetic procedures including laser treatments, botox, and lip fillers were conducted regularly and operated with a staff of nearly 15 people consisting of assistants, doctors, techs, and nurses.
Amanda and another doctor (who received his education and physicians license in Brazil, but did not have a MD in the US) were the only two arrested in this sting operation. Curiously, they were both native to Brazil.
Upon Amanda’s arrest, she was immediately placed Immigration Hold. From June-late September/early October, Amanda has been sitting in ICE Custody in, presumably in Florida.
The day after her arrest, Paolo and his attorneys began filing motions aggressively to undo the work that Amanda had put in to be given legal custody of their child.
Within the last two weeks (at the time of publishing this article), Amanda was deported back to Brazil without due process, trial, attorney representation, nor the ability to contact her friends or family. She was completely isolated and her human rights have been violated at an extraordinary level.
On September 5th of 2025, Amanda’s mother, Tania, filed for custody of her grandchild and requested a restraining order against Paolo Zampolli.
The circumstances of Amanda Ungaro’s arrest are extremely strange. We don’t know why a (current or former) United Nations diplomat who is in a common-law marriage with a member of the current administration was working at a med-spa to begin with.
We don’t know any evidence that was used to arrest or deport her, as there have been no updates in the court docket to address the charges she was arrested for. It is notable that Amanda was arrested right around the time when the conversation surrounding Jeffrey Epstein became a topic in mainstream media once again.
The United States factually deported a woman (without due process) who was on Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs at 17 years old, and shares a child with a member of this administration.
This is a blatant act of silencing a victim, or even potential witness of Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirators. The United States MUST take responsibility for this.
I have spoken with a figure who is very close to Amanda who confirmed to me that she recently arrived back in Brazil, and is living in fear. If any harm is to come to her, it will weigh solely on the United States and will be a (yet another) stain on our history that will never be forgotten.
Who is Paolo Zampolli?:
Paolo Zampolli was born on March 5th of 1970. He was born in Italy and comes from a wealthy family who made a fortune selling Star Wars toys throughout Europe.
In the 1990’s, Paolo met and began representing Melania Knauss (now Melania Trump), as a independent modeling agent, and would get her a visa to come to the United States.
Melania would model for Paolo Zampolli’s ID Models shortly after her arrival to the United States. Not long after Melania’s arrival, Paolo introduced her to his friend, Donald Trump, at the Kit Kat Club in New York City in 1998.
The night Melania was introduced to Donald Trump, he was on a date with his girlfriend at the time, Celina Midelfart.
Celina Midelfart is the Norwegian ex-girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein who can be seen in photos with both Jeffrey and Donald partying at Mar a Lago in her early 20’s. She is one of the many girls/women that Jeffrey and Donald “shared” throughout their friend. Others include: Anouska De Georgiou (model), Anna Molova (Miss Russia 1998), and “Katie Johnson” (13 year old girl who was raped by Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein circa 1994).
Donald Trump founded Trump Models in 1999, two years after Paolo Zampolli founded ID Models. The two followed one another’s business blueprint so closely that they have been in stride for nearly 30 years.
Donald Trump utilized The Trump Organization to build his real estate empire, and Paolo Zampolli worked for the Trump Organization briefly while managing ID Models.
Paolo has admitted on the news that his close friend Donald Trump came to him and told him in the early 2000’s that he was “too good for the modeling industry”, and encouraged him to get into real estate.
This prompted Paolo Zampolli to found The Paramount Group (with the help of Donald Trump).
Paolo’s business model included using his other company, ID Models, to show and sell expensive and luxurious homes. Paolo believed he would sell more properties using beautiful women (who he had a plethora of access to) than he would using older women or male real estate agents.
Despite raking in tons of cash from both of their modeling agencies and their real estate adventures (which often had crossover) Paolo Zampolli and Donald Trump were constantly facing lawsuits due to various forms of mistreatment towards their models.
Models would also be expected to regularly socialize with wealthy and powerful friends of Paolo and Donald (under the guise of it being an opportunity to advance their career).
From 2003-2005, dozens of models brought at least two class action lawsuits against New York based modeling agencies, including Trump Models, ID Models, Elite Models, MC2 Models, Karrin Models, Jean Luc-Brunel, and John Casablancas, just to name a few figures and organizations accused of wrongdoing.
These models accused their agents and agencies of exploitation (on many levels), encouraging them to use substances, normalizing sexual favors for career advancement, secretly recording them in their model-housing (provided primarily by Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein), and bringing them to the United States illegally making them unable to work for anyone other than their modeling agents.
I also found this article from the mid 2000’s in the Gawker Archive where Paolo Zampolli insinuated that his models are “working girls” (amongst other things), but the name of one of his ID Models in particular caught my eye.
This article talks about Paolo’s Paramount Group and his exploitative pyramid of corruption (inspired by Donald Trump), and names figures within Paolo’s inner circle, including Donald Trump, Ron Burkle, and Bill Clinton.
Shockingly, there is an ID Model signed to Paolo named in this article named Adriana Mucinska. It is detailed within this article that she had been spending a lot of time with Jeffrey Epstein – “massage connoisseur”.
Getty Images has multiple photographs of Jeffrey Epstein and Adriana together, but this article couldn’t predict at the time of publication that Adriana Mucinska was a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s “Core Four”.
Jeffrey Epstein’s “Core Four” included: Sarah Kellen, Adriana Mucinska (sometimes known as Adriana Ross) Lesley Groff, and Nadia Marcinkova (sometimes known as Nadia Marcinko). These are the women were Ghislaine Maxwell’s protégés who actively lured young girls and women into Jeffrey Epstein’s crosshairs for profit.
At 18 years, Adriana was flown from Poland to Palm Beach, Florida to work for Jeffrey Epstein while modeling for Paolo Zampolli at ID Models. She was placed into the role of a scheduler and manager of Jeffrey’s “appointments” and would recruit other young girls for Jeffrey and his friends, as well.
In Jeffrey Epstein’s 2008 Sweetheart Deal, all the women apart of Jeffrey’s Core Four were named as co-conspirators and given immunity, along with all the unnamed co-conspirators.
Adriana Mucinska, like the other members of the Core Four, plead the fifth when deposed for Virginia Giuffre’s defamation lawsuit and Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial.
She went on Jeffrey’s plane multiple times, often accompanied alongside Bill Clinton, Glenn and Eva Dubin, Donald Trump, Prince Andrew, Alan Dershowitz, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Naomi Campbell (just to name a few figures).
Through Paolo’s real estate company, he sold many properties to high profile individuals, including Qatari government officials.
In 2011, Paolo was named Minister-Counsellor to the Permanent Mission of the Commonwealth of Dominica at the United Nations.
In October 2013, Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit appointed Zampolli as United Nations Ambassador and Ambassador for Oceans and Seas for the Commonwealth of Dominica.
In June 2014, Keith Mitchell, Prime Minister of Grenada, appointed Zampolli’s common law wife, Amanda Ungaro as United Nations Ambassador in charge of Post-15th Agendas and responsible of the second committee with United Nations Ambassador Ranking.
Amanda Ungaro has also worked under the 69th United Nations Vice President of the UN General Assembly for the Blue Economy.
Meaning, both Paolo Zampolli and Amanda Ungaro areUnited Nations diplomats in their own regards.
On December 22, 2020, Paolo was announced as an appointee member of the board of trustees of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts by Donald Trump.
In January 2021, Paolo was appointed to the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition, joining prominent members such as: Herschel Walker, Bill Belichick, Johnny Damon, Natalie Gulbis, Misty May-Treanor, Urban Meyer, and Mariano Rivera.
Since March 2025, Paolo has served as the United States Special Representative for Global Partnerships.
Paolo Zampolli often hosts UN Meetings/after parties at one of his New York properties on East 17th Street.
An anonymous source who has reached out to me, has shared that she was sexually assaulted at this property (pictured above) by Paolo Zampolli in 2023 after a UN event. This anonymous source is a friend of and connected to Donald Trump’s grandchildren and has spent many evenings at Mar-a-Lago, as can be observed on her social media.
Originally, a friend of the aforementioned victim reached out to me after seeing my research on Paolo Zampolli. She connected me with the victim, who told me firsthand exactly what happened to her, when it happened, where it happened, the circumstances leading up to it happening, and was able to provide messages from Paolo Zampolli where he admits to what he did.
This is a victim who is actively pursing justice and exhausting her legal options, so I will only share what I have been given permission to share about her trauma at this time.
Here are some photos she has given me permission to share from the night of her assault and the following day:
She is one of multiple women who have reached out with similar allegations of being drugged and raped in Paolo Zampolli’s NYC property.
If we meander over to Google Maps, we can see that back in November 2016 sits the flag of Grenada, a United Nations flag, and a We Are The Oceans (WATO) flag.
There is also a We Are The Oceans (WATO) sign on the front of his property.
WATO is an organization that Paolo Zampolli represents within his work for the United Nations. WATO is the same organization that partnered with Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein’s “oceanic non-profit organization”, TerraMar, beginning in 2013.
“We are the ocean” was also a coined phrase that Ghislaine Maxwell used when talking about TerraMar’s mission and goals for “oceanic environmental ownership”. We Are The Ocean and TerraMar had virtually the same listed goals of oceanic environmental protection/ownership.
Now, if we go forward to 2021, we can see that the sign is still there…
…but by August 2022, it was taken off his building. Coincidentally, Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced less than 2 months before Google Maps captured a still showing the sign had been taken down.
I have also looked this property up on the NYC Department of Buildings database, where we can see any and all complaints that locals have made about Paolo’s property.
This property has a long list of complaints made by neighbors who have accused Paolo of constantly having people in and out of the property at all hours of the night. Some neighbors have speculated he was running an illegal Air B and B or hotel, due to the volume of people entering and exiting the property.
Despite neighbors constantly reporting the shady ongoings of this property, Paolo continues to host prominent members with The United Nations body, foreign politicians, domestic politicians, celebrities and models.
In 2021, an article from Politico was released about Paolo Zampolli. There are two points of interest that stood out to me. The first point is the revelation that Paolo was having an affair and cheating on the mother of his son, Amanda Ungaro.
Text messages were released between Paolo and the woman whom he had an affair with, in which Paolo warns her to stay away from his family, and that the whole city knew she was nothing more than a “working girl that he had to pay from the beginning”.
This woman denied being a “working girl” (aka a sex worker) and trading her affection for financial gain, and claimed the two were in a consensual relationship until she had found out that he was dishonest about the nature of his relationship with Amanda Ungaro.
According to her, when she found out that Amanda was his common-law wife who was loyal to him (and she was NOT aware of the affair between her and Paolo), he verbally berated her and threatened to destroy her reputation if she spoke out.
Thus far, we have having complaints made about a revolving door of people, more than one allegation of drugging and rape occurring in this building by Paolo, frequent parties with powerful and well connected figures, neighbors stating that it seems that he’s running an illegal hotel out of his home, and when he is accused of having an affair his first retort is to call the woman nothing more than a working girl.
When we put all of these things together, in my opinion, it seems something very nefarious is operating behind closed doors.
Steve Witkoff:
Before we finish this article up, I wanted to further dive into another friend of Paolo’s who is deeply intertwined with powerful and predatory men.
One of Paolo’s closest friends is Giuseppe Cipriani Jr., the CEO of Cipriani’s, the restaurant and how it has been used as a hunting ground for young women by very powerful men from Harvey Weinstein to Jeffrey Epstein.
Paolo has multiple photos on his social media of him at various Cipriani’s locations surrounded by very young women.
Throughout the 80’s to the early 2010’s was when the Cipriani’s restaurant brand was rapidly and constantly expanding.
In this era they would open Cipriani’s Downtown and Cipriani’s Wall Street. In 1997 Giuseppe Cipriani Jr. and his father purchased 55 Wall Street in New York, but there was a legal fiasco causing them to sell the property.
In 2005-2006, they were successful in repurchasing 55 Wall Street with the help of an real estate attorney named Steve Witkoff.
Steve Witkoff is an attorney, the founder of the Witkoff Group which is a real estate firm, and he was appointed to work under Donald Trump’s first administration as a member of the Great American Revival Industry Group. (Which sounds like a made up job to me personally.)
Steve Witkoff is appointed under the current administration as special envoy to the Middle East where he already has extensive business and real estate ties.
Steve Witkoff is who the United States has sent in to handle a large majority of negotiations between Israel and Gaza. I’m using the word “negations” loosely because here we are two years into this non-stop devastation of Gaza, and Steve Witkoff has done nothing but blame the Palestinians.
Steve Witkoff is also Donald Trump’s main channel of communication between himself and Vladimir Putin. Steve Witkoff has said on the record he thinks of Putin as a close friend, and thinks “he’s a brilliant and great guy.”
He fully believes every piece of Russian propaganda and Israeli propaganda that is fed to him, and has proven to be not only ineffective but a liability to human life.
Steve’s son, Zach Witkoff is the founder of World Liberty Financial, the cryptocurrency company that this administration is obsessed with.
There are multiple Cipriani-owned buildings in New York City. Some are event spaces, some are restaurants and bars, some are private membership hotels, but all virtually used for the same purpose — to host wealthy and famous individuals.
For example, Harvey Weinstein was a regular and a close friend of Giuseppe Cipriani Jr. Most of his film premieres, parties, and fundraisers were hosted at either Cipriani’s 42nd street and Cipriani’s Wall Street. He also regularly dined at Cipriani’s and had easy access to young models and celebrities.
He would utilize the rooftop suits attached to many of these locations to take his victims and harm them. It was an open secret that Harvey Weinstein utilized Cipriani’s as a hunting ground, as Giuseppe Cipriani Jr. allowed it.
Giuseppe Cipriani Jr. is also in Jeffrey and Ghislaine’s little black book and were photographed together at different Cipriani’s venues on multiple occasions.
Bill and Hillary Clinton often hosted their Clinton Foundation Fundraisers at a Cipriani Venue and have connections to Giuseppe Cipriani Jr.
Rudy Giuliani is a regular at Cipriani’s as was Andrew Cuomo, Donald Trump, and Michael Bloomberg.
In fact one of Donald and Melania’s first official dates back in 1998 after they met, was dinner at Cipriani’s. They were even photographed on this night with Giuseppe Cipriani Jr.
Giuseppe is also friends with figures like: Russell Simmons, Clive Davis, Sarah Ferguson, Naomi Campbell, David Copperfeild, and P. Diddy. There is a lot of overlap between Jeffrey’s associates and Giuseppe Cipriani Jr.’s associates.
If we already knew that Ciprani’s was being used as a hunting ground, allowed by the owner, for figures like Harvey Weinstein, we have no reason to believe that behavior has ever stopped as the same person who was in charge then, is in charge now, and Cipriani’s constantly finds themselves embroiled in legal battles and scandals pertaining to similar allegations.
Paolo Zampolli is not just a friend of Giuseppe Cipriani Jr., he has also been on The Board of Cipriani’s (The Cipriani Group) for almost 30 years so he has been there for just about every major scandal, including Harvey Weinstein. He was also on the board when Steve Witkoff worked as Giuseppe Cipriani Jr.’s real estate attorney in 2005-2006. Now, both Paolo Zampolli and Steve Witkoff curiously work in our current administration.
Conclusion:
There is a woman who flew on Jeffrey’s plane at 17 years old who has been deported without due process, coincidentally, as soon as the conversation surrounding Jeffrey Epstein became relevant in mainstream media.
Paolo Zampolli is a known co-conspirator of Jeffrey Epstein and has maintained a very close friendship with Donald Trump throughout his relationship with Jeffrey and after.
Yet, the Oversight Committee, Republicans in Congress, and mainstream media, are not seeing what is right in front of them.
If these threads are not pulled, nothing will be unraveled. If I, a private citizen who is a stay at home mother of two, was able to discover this information — the people who can make change can discover it, too.
There is a lot more to Paolo Zampolli’s connections, but this is the best way I could compile a relevant timeline. For more information, you can check my “Paolo Zampolli” Playlist on TikTok, or my YouTube which has all of my research compiled in one long form video. (@bekahdayyy for both TikTok and YouTube)
