Parents and critics alike erupted in fury Friday after an alleged Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirator was linked to one of the nation’s largest school photography companies, prompting multiple districts to cancel picture days, HuffPost reported.

That company is Lifetouch, which provides photography services for schools across the nation, and proudly touts on its website that it’s “built on the tradition of ‘Picture Day.’” Lifetouch is owned by Apollo Global Management Group, an assets management firm co-founded by billionaire Leon Black, a key source of Epstein’s wealth.

And, while Black has since stepped down as Apollo Global Management Group’s CEO, new details about his relationship with Epstein revealed recently – along with the company’s new CEO, billionaire Marc Rowan, another individual with close ties to Epstein – have prompted several school districts to cancel picture days it had scheduled with Lifetouch, and sparked fury among parents and critics online.
