2 McKINNEY, Registered Professional Reporter, Florida
3 Professional Reporter, Certified LiveNote Reporter and
4 Notary Public in and for the State of Florida at Large
5 in the above cause.
6 (Whereupon, Witness's Exhibit 1 was marked for
7 identification.)
8 VIDEOGRAPHER: We are now on the video record.
9 Today is Monday, the 15th day of March, 2010. The
10 time is 9:13 a.m. (sic). We are here at 515 East
11 Las Olas Boulevard, 3rd Floor, Fort Lauderdale,
12 Florida, for the purpose of taking the videotape
13 deposition of taken in Case Number
14 08-CIV-80893, Jane Doe M. Jeffrey Epstein, et al.
15 The court reporter is Janet McKinney; the
16 videographer is Sean McGuire, both of U.S. Legal
17 Support.
18 Will counsel and all present please introduce
19 yourself and the court reporter will swear the
EFTA00182419
20 witness.
21 MR. EDWARDS: Brad Edwards. I represent the
22 plaintiff, Jane Doe also "Jane Doe"; EW, "EW"; LM,
23 "LM"
24 MR. MERMELSTEIN: Stuart Mermelstein. I
25 represent Jane Doe Numbers 2 through 8.
0005
1 MR. PIKE: Michael Pike on behalf of Jeffrey
2 Epstein.
3 MR. ROSS: And good morning, my name is Alan
4 Ross. I represent the witness,
5 THE REPORTER: Would you raise your right
6 hand, please.
7 Do you solemnly swear or affirm the testimony
8 you're about to give will be the truth, and nothing
9 but the truth, so help you God?
10 THE WITNESS: I do.
11 MR. ROSS: Before the deposition begins and in
12 an effort to streamline the process of getting
13 through this deposition on behalf of the witness we
14 have had marked as Witness Exhibit Number 1 an
15 August 31, 2007 letter from the ' tates
16 Attorney's Office addressed to through
17 her then counsel, Bruce Lyons, which is called a
18 target letter identifying her as a target of a
19 federal Grand Jury investigation in the Southern
20 District of Florida and outlining a number of
21 offenses that were the subject matter of
22 investigation.
23 As a result of that, it is anticipated that
24 some of the questions that may be asked during the
25 course of this deposition she may invoke her Fifth
0006
1 Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.
2 And in order to streamline this we've agreed prior
3 to beginning this that she will simply answer "I
4 refuse to answer." The parties will understand and
5 the record will reflect that she is invoking her
6 Fifth Amendment privilege against
7 self-incrimination.
8 If there is some other privilege,
9 attorney-client privilege or some other objection
10 that I may have to a question, I'll specifically
11 state it. But her answer "I refuse to answer" will
12 be on Fifth Amendment grounds if that's acceptable
13 to everyone.
14 MR. EDWARDS: It's acceptable.
15 MR. MERMELSTEIN: It's acceptable.
16 MR. PIKE: Acceptable.
17 MR. ROSS: Okay. Madam court reporter has
18 already marked the exhibit, and I'll leave that
19 with her.
20 MR. EDWARDS: Okay.

18 mistake is corrected. I do not recall exact time when

24 MR. ROSS: Brad, let me just interrupt for a
25 moment.
0014
1 MR. EDWARDS: No problem.
2 MR. ROSS: Just to be sure, when the witness
3 answers "I refuse to answer" to be clear the full
4 statement that she's not saying for the sake of
5 saving time is that she's invoking her Fifth
6 Amendment right against self-incrimination. Just
7 to be clear.

10 MR. MERMELSTEIN: That's what I understood.
11 MR. ROSS: Okay, fine. Go ahead.

9 finish your answer; you have to wait for me to finish
10 my question. We have one court reporter. She can only
11 take down one of us. Give us an answer that we all
12 understand. Nodding of the head or shaking the head
13 are easy to do and I get what you're saying, but she
14 doesn't. Ah-ha or un-ah are things that are commonly
15 said. They look the same on paper.

11 New York City and we're not going to discuss -- I'm
12 assuming you're not going to answer a lot of questions
13 about New York City, but at what time period did you
14 move there? Was it right after you got here two weeks,
15 a year later? I'm just trying to get a year as to when
16 you moved to New York?

1 MR. PIKE: Michael Pike on behalf of Jeffrey
2 Epstein.
3 MR. ROSS: And good morning, my name is Alan
4 Ross. I represent the witness,
5 THE REPORTER: Would you raise your right
6 hand, please.
7 Do you solemnly swear or affirm the testimony
8 you're about to give will be the truth, and nothing
9 but the truth, so help you God?
10 THE WITNESS: I do.
11 MR. ROSS: Before the deposition begins and in
12 an effort to streamline the process of getting
13 through this deposition on behalf of the witness we
14 have had marked as Witness Exhibit Number 1 an
15 August 31, 2007 letter from the ' tates
16 Attorney's Office addressed to through
17 her then counsel, Bruce Lyons, which is called a
18 target letter identifying her as a target of a
19 federal Grand Jury investigation in the Southern
20 District of Florida and outlining a number of
21 offenses that were the subject matter of
22 investigation.
23 As a result of that, it is anticipated that
24 some of the questions that may be asked during the
25 course of this deposition she may invoke her Fifth
0006
1 Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.
2 And in order to streamline this we've agreed prior
3 to beginning this that she will simply answer "I
4 refuse to answer." The parties will understand and
5 the record will reflect that she is invoking her
6 Fifth Amendment privilege against
7 self-incrimination.
8 If there is some other privilege,
9 attorney-client privilege or some other objection
10 that I may have to a question, I'll specifically
11 state it. But her answer "I refuse to answer" will
12 be on Fifth Amendment grounds if that's acceptable
13 to everyone.
14 MR. EDWARDS: It's acceptable.
15 MR. MERMELSTEIN: It's acceptable.
16 MR. PIKE: Acceptable.
17 MR. ROSS: Okay. Madam court reporter has
18 already marked the exhibit, and I'll leave that
19 with her.
20 MR. EDWARDS: Okay.

24 MR. ROSS: Brad, let me just interrupt for a
25 moment.
0014
1 MR. EDWARDS: No problem.
2 MR. ROSS: Just to be sure, when the witness
3 answers "I refuse to answer" to be clear the full
4 statement that she's not saying for the sake of
5 saving time is that she's invoking her Fifth
6 Amendment right against self-incrimination. Just
7 to be clear.
8 MR. EDWARDS: That's what I've understood all
9 along.
10 MR. MERMELSTEIN: That's what I understood.
11 MR. ROSS: Okay, fine. Go ahead.

9 finish your answer; you have to wait for me to finish
10 my question. We have one court reporter. She can only
11 take down one of us. Give us an answer that we all
12 understand. Nodding of the head or shaking the head
13 are easy to do and I get what you're saying, but she
14 doesn't. Ah-ha or un-ah are things that are commonly
15 said. They look the same on paper.

15 a year later? I'm just trying to get a year as to when

11 genital area or buttocks or the clothing covering them
12 of a person less than 16 years of age or forces or
13 entices a person under 16 years of age to so touch the
14 perpetrator, commits lewd or lascivious molestation, a
15 second degree felony."
16 After hearing that statute isn't that
17 something -- isn't that a crime that you know
18 Mr. Epstein to have committed on an everyday basis
19 while you were working for him?
20 MR. PIKE: Form.

18 female?
19 MR. PIKE: Form.
20 A. I refuse to answer.
21 Q. I realize some of these questions may sound
22 repetitive but during this case we've learned of key
23 terms that different people on Mr. Epstein's let's say
24 payroll or inner circle recognize or talk about. So
25 when I talk about "massages", do you know what that
0026
1 term means?
2 MR. PIKE: Form.
3 A. I refuse to answer.
4 Q. Isn't "massage" the word that was told by

6 whatever acts he engages in with underage females in
7 his bedroom?
8 MR. PIKE: Form.
9 A. I refuse to answer.
10 Q. At this point -- were you -- were you ever in

20 Q. Now, just so that the record is clear there is
21 not a single piece of evidence that ever indicates that
22 you were involved with underage females, I'm not even
23 implying that and I realize that you invoking it may --
24 may give the wrong light and that's not -- that's not
25 my intention, so -- but were you ever aware of
participating in sex with underage females?
2 A. I refuse to answer.
3 Q. Have you read the police reports related to
4 the criminal investigation into Mr. Epstein?
5 A. I refuse to answer.

13 "massage"?

16 females that would come over to Mr. Epstein's house did
17 anybody also tell you to use the term "work"?
18 A. I refuse to answer.
19 MR. PIKE: Form.
20 Q. Meaning when somebody would call to schedule
21 one of these underage females for a massage isn't it
22 true that they would say "It's time to come to work"
23 and schedule a specific appointment?
24 MR. PIKE: Form.
25 A. I refuse to answer.
