The original source of the scandal surrounding Melgen and New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, a tipster who goes by “Peter Williams,” first told ABC News’ Rhonda Schwartz about this woman in early 2012. “Williams” identified her as “Svetlana B.”
“This girl is one of the most regular participants in the activities the Doctor arranges for the Senator,” the tipster “Williams” wrote to Schwartz in June 2012 in an email later published online and in the Miami Herald, about the Russian woman. “She has traveled with them in the jet, sailed with them in the yacht, and has repeatedly visited the Doctor’s house.”
The Miami Herald uncovered the woman’s real name: Svitlana Buchyk. “Sveta” and “Svetlana” appear to be other spellings for her name.
Melgen, a wealthy ophthalmologist and frequent donor to high-level national Democrats, employed Buchyk at one time. She confirmed her previous employment with Melgen in an interview with The Miami Herald but would not say what services she provided for him.
The Herald said she “was eager to defend Melgen — particularly when asked about stories of Melgen’s alleged sexual liaisons with prostitutes.”
“He is an amazing person,” Buchyk said, apparently adding that many other women would have loved to spend time with Melgen. “He was always with his family. There is nothing else I can say.”
“He treated me well,” Buchyk added. “He had money. He was very generous.”
Under the photo of Buchyk exiting the plane—which she posted on her Flickr account—she wrote a caption: “On my way home yeayyyyy.”
Her Flickr account was opened in May 2012 and the photo was posted on May 9, 2012. That time frame is around when the tipster “Williams” began communicating with ABC’s Schwartz and the George Soros-funded Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).
It is unclear where and when the photo was taken, but the Flickr account says it was taken in Hawaii.
In the corner of the photo, two characters from the tail number of the plane are visible: the letter “G,” preceded by what could be either an “L,” “Z,” or “E.” The rest of the number is cut off.
