NEW YORK CITY - A retired Big Apple financier who once had ties to George Soros was arrested Friday for sex-trafficking former Playboy models and other women to a penthouse turned BDSM “sex dungeon,” federal prosecutors alleged.
Howard Rubin, 70, was picked up at his home in Fairfield, Ct,. on a 10-count indictment for “torturing women beyond their consent,” Brooklyn US Attorney Joseph Nocella charged in a statement.
The famed former money manager — known as “Howie” and “H” — is accused of abusing the victims first at a luxury New York City hotel and then later at a two-bedroom penthouse that he morphed into a dungeon filled with BDSM equipment between 2009 and 2019, prosecutors said.
