EPSTEIN - 5TH AMENDMENT DERSHOWITZ DEPOSTIIONS: 1. Dersh Depo Vol 2 — question by Scarola — pg 218 — "So you recognized as of 1-5-15 that the reason why the statements were filed in the CVRA case was because the CVRA case had, as an objective, setting aside the plea agreement that you had negotiated for JE, correct" 2. Cassell vol 1 pg 55 — discussing caption of CVRA — Cassell says "it's a civil case. However, the ultimate aim of the — the action is to try to invalidate a nonprosecution agreement and allow criminal prosecution..our position as I understand it...is that this action is an action that is ancillary to a contemplated criminal prosecution of JE , four women who were assisting him in international sex trafficking and the other co-conspirators that would be involved..." 3. Cassell vol 1 pg 85 — "there was a provision in the NPA that said this agreement will prevent federal prosecution for international and interstate sex trafficking not only of JE and not only of the four women who were identified but ...any other potential co- conspirator...unusual...designed to extend immunity to other people that might have been associated with Epstein...included Mr Dershowitz" 4. Cassell vol 1 pg 99 — "I knew that David Boies had agreed to represent VR which gave me additional confidence in the fact that I was also representing this young woman in her effort to bring sex traffickers to justice, and those who had sexually abused her to justice" 5. Cassell vol 1 pg 100 — critical of JE assertion of 5th — 6. Casselll vol 2 pg 257 — the focus of the CVRA is criminal - setting aside of NPA (rather than eliciting further monetary civil claims) 7. Cassell vol 2 pg 306 — re Prince Andrew, use of influence to corrupt case v JE 9 Victim's Reply to 7/11/2008 2 "For all these reasons, the Government's Government's response lacks merit. Response to The Court should therefore declare Emergency Petition . . the proposed non-prosecution . agreement an illegal one, since it was reached in violation of the CVRA, and order the Government to confer with Petitioner and the other victims in this matter before reaching any disposition in this case." EFTA01100365  7 "Here, the wealthy defendant has escaped all federal punishment — a plea deal that Petitioner would have strenuously objected to ... if the Government had given her the chance." 10- "The question then arises as to the 11 appropriate remedy. The obvious remedy is to declare the non- prosecution agreement illegal and direct that the Government proceed to negotiate a new agreement — in a process that respects Petitioner's (and all other victims') rights." 14 "This Court must therefore protect her rights by declaring the non- prosecution agreement invalid." 16 "The Court should enter an order finding the non-prosecution agreement in this case was negotiated in violation of the CVRA and therefore is illegal and invalid." Plaintiffs MOTION for 3/21/2011 29 "Here, the wealthy defendant has escaped Summary Judgment all federal punishment — a plea deal that REDACTED— Jane Doe Jane Doe # 1 and Jane Doe # 2 would #1 and Jan have strenuously objected to ... if the Doe #2's Motion for Government had given her the chance." Finding of Violations of the Crime Victims' Rights Act and Request for Hearing on Appropriate Remedies by Jane Doe. 37 "When other plea agreements have been negotiated in violation of federal law, they have been stricken by the courts." 39 "The Non-Prosecution Agreement that the Government entered into in this case was simply illegal. . . . the only issue for the Court is whether the Agreement was lawful. It was not, and so the Court invalidate it." 127 RESPONSEJREPLY 12/5/2011 1-2 "Given such allegations (and, indeed, even Jane Doe #1 and Jane without such allegations), this Court Doe #2 Response to possesses broad remedial powers to craft Goverment's an appropriate remedy for the violations.

Such a remedy would not violate Epstein's constitutional rights because he was and is a party to the illegal agreement — and, indeed, he orchestrated the illegality. In addition, the victims are seeking numerous other remedies .. . ." 5 "Instead, the victims seek (among other remedies) the invalidation of an illegal non-prosecution agreement so that they can confer with the Government about an appropriate prosecution of the crimes Epstein committed against them." 7 "Second, in any event, the victims are entitled to have the Court invalidate the non-prosecution agreement because it is illegal. Third, entirely apart from invalidating the agreement the victims are entitled to seek a wide range of `legal' and equitable remedies apart from, or in addition to, invalidation of the illegal agreement." 9 "Thus, unlike the Walker case where the agreement was an accident, here the illegal agreement was a deliberate plan. In such circumstances, any equitable claim Epstein has for specific performance of the non- prosecution agreement disappears." 13 "For all these reasons, the victims will be able to prove that the Court should set aside the non-prosecution agreement as the appropriate remedy in this case." 14 "Here, numerous discrete remedies lie within the Court's power to award. In particular, the victims are asking the Court to award all of the following remedies: . . . A declaration that the non-prosecution agreement is accordingly illegal; A declaration invalidating the illegal non- prosecution agreement in whole, or in the alternative, a declaration invalidating the illegal non-prosecution agreement to the EFTA01100367  extent that it purports to bar prosecution of Epstein's crimes against Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2 ... ." 15-16 "Most important, a declaration that the non-prosecution agreement is illegal and void would assist the victims in various ways (including ways described in the victims' supplemental sealed pleading on remedies)." 311 MOTION Jane Doe No. 2/6/2015 7-8 "The Court went on to rule for the 1 and Jane Doe No. 2's victims on the rescission issue, Protective Motion explaining that 'in their petition and Pursuant to Rule 15 to supplemental pleadings, Jane Doe 1 Amend Their Petition and 2 have identified a remedy which to Conform to Existing is likely to redress the injury Evidence and to Add complained of— the setting aside of Jane the non-prosecution agreement as a Doe No. 3 and Jane prelude to the full unfettered exercise Doe No. 4 as of their conferral rights at a time that Petitioners by Jane will enable the victims to exercise Doe. those rights meaningfully."' 12 "Of course, the point of the litigation was not to obtain the NPA's `disclosure' but rather the NPA's invalidation." 318 REPLY in Support of 3/19/2015 3 "Remarkably, rather than suggest any re 311 Motion to prejudice to itself, the Government Amend/Correct Jane claims that Jeffrey Epstein — the man Doe No. land Jane Doe who sexually molested Jane Doe Nos.
