Let me get back to the police here. 2 So the police sit and they interview you for 3 an hour and a half to two hours, and during that, not 4 only the sworn part of the testimony out of your 5 statement, but as well you're saying that you lied to 6 them during part of, part of what you've said, both 7 sworn and unsworn, and as well you didn't provide them 8 all the information, right? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Now, you filed your lawsuit in this case 11 against Mr. Epstein and you are seeking, at least your 12 lawyers are asking in part of the complaint for 13 $50 million. Are you aware of that? 14 A. No, my lawyers take care of all that. 15 Q. All right. Let me show you I'll mark as 16 Exhibit 1. 17 (The document was marked Defendant's 18 Exhibit 1 for identification.) 19 BY MR. CRITTON: 20 Q. Exhibit 1 is the amended complaint that you 21 filed, that your lawyers -- it's the second complaint 22 that actually was filed in this action. The original 23 complaint was filed on September 10th of '08, all right? 24 A. Uh huh. 25 Q. Yes? PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104242 Page 29 1 A. Yes. 2 Q. All right. So between the time that the 3 lawsuit was filed on September -- let me strike that -- 4 that you gave a statement to the police officers under 5 which you, about which you've admitted you did not tell 6 the truth on , 2005, up until three years 7 later -- almost three years later, September 10th of 8 '08, did you recontact the police and tell the police 9 that you had not told them the truth? In fact, you had 10 lied to them and withheld information? 11 A. I told the FBI that when they came up to visit 12 me 13 Q. That wasn't my question. 14 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 15 BY MR. CRITTON: 16 Q. My question was did you talk to the Palm Beach 17 police department -- 18 A. I never talked to them after that. 19 Q. I need to finish the question. 20 A. I'm sorry. 21 Q. -- from the time that you first spoke with 22 them on of 2005 up until the time that the 23 complaint was filed, that is, to bring this lawsuit 24 seeking damages in excess of $50 million against 25 Mr: Epstein, did you ever call or recontact the Palm PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104243 Page 34 1 you first went to Mr. Epstein's home? 2 A. I believe I went the end of my sophomore year 3 till about the end of my junior year. I'm not sure if 4 it was the beginning or the end of my sophomore year. 5 Somewhere around there. 6 Q. Well, you told the police that you were 7 approximately 17 when you first went to Mr. Epstein's 8 home, didn't you? 9 A. I don't exactly remember what, when I said 10 that, I first told them I went. 11 Q. If I asked you to assume that the police 12 report reflects that the statement that you gave to 13 them, that you were there when you were 17 years old, 14 all right? 15 A. Okay. 16 Q. If you were 17 years old and you were born in, 17 let's see, so it would have been 18 approximately June, the end of June of 2004, correct, 19 that you first went there? 20 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 21 THE WITNESS: I, I don't exactly know, to be 22 honest with you. 23 BY MR. CRITTON: 24 Q. You mean when you first went to Mr. Epstein's? 25 A. I can't put a date on it. I just remember it PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104244 Page 35 1 was my sophomore year to my junior year. 2 Q. When you gave a statement to the police on 3 , 2005, whether you were 16 or 17, what 4 difference would it have made to the police officers? 5 Why would being scared or confused, why would you lie 6 about your age when you first went to Mr. Epstein's? 7 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 8 THE WITNESS: I don't know. 9 BY MR. CRITTON: 10 Q. Maybe in fact -- 11 A. I mean I did go when I was 17 too, so I may 12 have just said 17, I don't really know. 13 Q. Well, you were 18 -- again, would you agree 14 with me that your recollection of the events involving 15 Mr. Epstein would have been better in October of '05 16 than it is at the current time? 17 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 18 THE WITNESS: Yes. 19 BY MR. CRITTON: 20 Q. And if you told the police officers you were 21 17 when you first went to Mr. Epstein's home, would you 22 agree with me that that, there would have been no reason 23 for you to lie about your age at that time -- 24 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 25 PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104245 Page 36 1 BY MR. CRITTON: 2 Q. -- to the police officers? 3 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 4 BY MR. CRITTON: 5 Q. Whether you were scared or confused at that 6 time, you probably would have given them at least your 7 accurate age when you first went to Mr. Epstein's? 8 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 9 THE WITNESS: I may have said it because I was 10 scared and I didn't want to them to think I 11 actually went that long, or I don't know why I said 12 it. I honestly don't know. 13 BY MR. CRITTON: 14 Q. And maybe it was the truth at the time? 15 MR. HOROWITZ: Form. 16 THE WITNESS: I mean I really don't know. 17 BY MR. CRITTON: 18 Q. So it may have been the truth, it may not have 19 been the truth; even today you don't know, correct, 20 whether you were 17 when you first went to 21 Mr. Epstein's? 22 A. I believe I was 16, because I believe it was 23 the end of my sophomore year. So I at least think I was 24 16. 25 Q. So you are meeting with two police officers PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104246 Page 37 1 from the Town of Palm Beach in basically a secure 2 environment, nothing can happen to you there. You told 3 them that you were 17 years old when you first went to 4 Mr. Epstein's. 5 Now that you are seeking $50 million in a 6 lawsuit that was filed on September 10 of '08, now all 7 of a sudden maybe you were 16? Is that your testimony? 8 MR. HOROWITZ: Let me object to form. You are 9 mischaracterizing the testimony. 10 BY MR. CRITTON: 11 Q. You can go ahead and answer, ma'am. 12 A. Well, I told you that I didn't tell them the 13 complete truth. So what would it matter if I told them 14 I was 17 or 16, when I already told you I didn't tell 15 them the complete truth and I didn't tell them 16 everything that happened? 17 Q. Well, again, my point is merely is -- 18 A. I understand. 19 Q. I want you to confirm that you didn't even 20 tell them the correct age, or at least your position is 21 you may have lied to the police officers even about the 22 age when you first went to Mr. Epstein's house? 23 A. I believe the only reason I would have lied 24 about my age, because I was scared and I didn't want 25 them obviously when I was 16 to think that I went there PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC. EFTA01104247 Page 38 1 as well as 17 and if I didn't really want to be involved 2 in it, so maybe that's why I said I was 17. I don't 3 remember that far back what I was thinking. 4 Q. Okay. I understand that.
