having been duly sworn by the grand jury foreperson,

EXAMINATION
ov [jf] —

Q Good morning, special agent | ili Could
you restate and spell your name for the record.

aes ll oo [ ——

|

Q Can you remind the grand jury who you are
employed by?

A The FBI.

Q I know that you testified here a few weeks ago.
Was there anything from that testimony that you wanted to
correct?

F- I did. 1 was asked by one of you Mr. Epstein's
age, and I confused him with another individual in another
one of my cases. His birthdate is January 20, 1953. We
are looking at the time period of 2004 and 2005. So
Mr. Epstein would have been about 51 or 52-years-old, and
I believe I told you he was 45. So at the time we're
looking during this investigation, he is 51 or 52.

Q Agent | how did this case first come

to the attention of the police?

Q So in March of 2005, detective IR talked with
Bl vas lll ever interviewed at any other times?

A Yes. She was interviewed -- they talked to her
again. She placed some controlled calls for them later
that month, we will talk about that later. As well as
she was interviewed about a year later in July of 2006.
Not interviewed, but she testified before the grand jury
for the State of Florida. So she was interviewed by
detective [il in March of 2005, and then about a year or
three or four months later, in July of 2006, she testified

before a grand jury with the State of Florida.

Q In preparation for your appearance today, did

B A Yes.

15 was there with her boyfriend, ne } And because these
16 are minors, we'll refer to them without using their last

18 They were at [ij residence, and I B. is
19 BB boyfriend, which is also |] cousin. So they

20 were all at [JJ] house, and [J was on the phone with

21 an individual that [Jj refers to as the assistant.
22 a described the assistant as a tall blonde.
23 So throughout I'll refer to her as the blonde lady, if

24 that's okay. [J] was unable to recall her name. So

BB and J cverhear [J] on» the phone
describing [Jl] J describing [Jj to the lady on

the phone. So when |] gets off the phone, ] and

Bl both want to know why [Jj was being described to
this lady on the phone. [Jj becomes upset when [NN
asks |] if she would like to go to Palm Beach and give a
man a massage that she knows. [J agrees, and this
upsets [fj and an argument ensues where [ij and ER
go into the bathroom and they argue outside the presence

Q Let me stop you there. was [Jj supposed to be

paid for giving this massage?

$200 or $300, I believe.

Bl is 23sc lB correct?

A Yes.

Q What was [ idea about why they were
arguing?

have known what [ij was doing for this man and the work

that [Ji] did for Mr. Epstein, and that is why [Jj was

So upset.

6 Q Because she wanted to make the $5200 or 53007

ki RA Yes,

B Q So tell us then what happened after that
3 meeting? |
10 A The next day, February 6& -- they discussed that

11 evening about going the next day. We do have on ee

12 phone records two calls that were placed. One was placed (
13 to [| cell phone, and the other was placed to |
14 Jeffrey Epstein's residence the night of February 5.

arrive at [ij residence, and they continue over to
Mr. Epstein's house.

Q Bl is driving with [Jl and Jl}. Do you
know how they were sitting?

A You know, I'm not sure how they were sitting,
but T know that it was a pickup truck that [jij drove.
and [ll was the driver. I'm not sure exactly the

placement of the other two girls, but they were in the

truck.
Q And [J] was able to describe how they travelled
to the island of Palm Beach?

Fu Yes. She gave directions -- you know, the best

that she could on how she was able to come to

Mr. Epstein's residence. |

Q Once they arrived at the residence, what

happened?

A I should have mentioned that either the night
before or the day of, there were some things that ne
tells ij. One. she tells [J] that she is to tell, if
asked, that she is 18-years-of-age, that she attends high

school, that she's in the 12th grade, and I believe it was

to.

Talking to Jj last night, [ij told us that

once she arrived at the residence [Jj tells her that she
may possibly be asked to take her clothes off. She also
tells her that she can stay in her bra, but she may be
asked to take her clothes off. And [Jj told us last
night that that's when she knew for the first time that
she might have to possibly remove her clothes.

At this point they proceed to enter the
residence. ne describes him as a security person. He
approached and asked what they were doing there, and |]
said they were there to see Mr. Epstein, or see Jeffrey.
He allowed them entry into the kitchen area by the pool,
and [| describes that area. So now } [ and
Bl arc all sitting in the kitchen. A short time goes
by and Mr. Epstein, as well as the assistant, enter the
kitchen.

correct?

A Yes, she did.

A Yes.

Q So you mentioned that the three girls are in the

kitchen, along with Jeffrey and the person [JJ} calls the

blonde lady?

A Yes.
Q what happened then?
A IB follows the blonde lady upstairs to

Mr. Epstein's bedroom. The blonde lady proceeds to take
out a massage table and set it up, prepare it. She also
takes out some lotions to be used during the massage.
Bl told me last night that the blonde lady asked her to
remove her clothing, and then left the room and said that
Mr. Epstein would be in shortly.

Q what happened after she left the room?

A Shortly after that, Mr. Epstein does come into

the room and shakes [JJ hand. [ told us last night

that Mr. Epstein told her to remove her clothing. He
leaves the room and comes back in just a towel, and he

tells her again to -- she is at that point -- when he

walked in the first time she had on her bra and her pants.

When he comes back in, he tells her that she needs to take

her pants off. So she took her pants off. So now she's

in her bra and underwear.

Q At some point did i] tell any of the people
who interviewed her what was running through her mind?

. She stated at one point that she was upstairs
with him, with the man, and that Bl vac downstairs. I
guess she says, "What could HE do? She's downstairs,
I'm upstairs.” So she did what she was asked to do.

Q S50 now you mention that Mr. Epstein is here
wearing just a towel, and Hi has removed both her shirt

and her pants, is that correct?

A Yes.
Q Tell us what happens then?
A Mr. Epstein gets on the massage table lying on

his stomach and instructs Bl how to do the massage. He
tells her to put some lotion on her hand and instructs her
on how to actually perform the massage. At one point
during the massage he tells [1] that she would be more
comfortable to get on top of him, so Hl gets on top of
him and straddles Mr. Epstein's back.

The way [Jj describes it is Mr. Epstein is
laying on the table, he has a towel covering his bottom,

and she is straddling him with her bottom touching the

towel and some skin touching his lower back. She was kind

EFTA00009459



Page 13

1 of sitting -- it sounds like sitting on his rear end, but
2 with part of her skin touching him -- the front of him,

3 but he had a towel across his bottom.

1 Q What happens as she 1s providing the massage to
3 his back?

6 A The massage goes on. She said the entire

1 massage lasted anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes. At one
8 point Mr. Epstein excuses himself for a few minutes, one

3 or two minutes briefly. ne states that she can hear

15 Then he returns. At this point he gets back on
16 the table lying on his back and asks her to start

17 massaging his chest. So she begins to massage his chest.
18 Q Does he keep the towel on?

19 A No, at this point the towel is removed. When he
20 comes back and he gets back on the table, the towel is

21 removed and she is massaging his chest.

22 .) What does he do as she is massaging his chest?

A She noted seeing several naked pictures of girls

in the room, a mural or pictures of naked girls either

exposing their breasts or completely naked.

Q While the massage was going on, did Mr. Epstein

talk to [Jl

A Yes, he did.

Q And did he talk about sexual conquests with
girls?

3 Yes, he did.

A When they left the house, they were on their way

to a mall to go shopping with the money that they had

received from Mr. Epstein. I had told [|] the night

before that she needed some shoes and wanted to go to the

mall, and she was going to Mr. Epstein's to pick up some

money. That was another reason that she had for going to

Mr. Epstein's house that day, and that they were going to

go shopping after she got her money, and that could
make some money.

Q During that ride, did Bn realize that me
received money from Mr. Epstein?

A Yes. At some point Bs knows that ms
received $200, but is unsure that me ever gave a
massage. So at that particular time ne did not know why
she had gotten the $200, because she didn't think that
PB had had time to give a massage.

Q In EEE interview, did she explain what she

got the $5200 for?

A he told the Palm Beach police department in
her interview that she received her $200 for bringing a
to the house.

Q You mentioned that there were these three
different time periods that ne was interviewed: Shortly
after the events, at the time of the state grand jury
proceedings, and when you met with her, correct?

A Yes.

Q And there were some discrepancies between the
different interviews. Can you explain some of those to
the grand jury.

car by 3 that we learned from [EGE interview with

the Palm Beach police department. So I don't know if I

said that, but I want to make sure you know that we first

learned that [JJ I listening to the

interview that was conducted between the Palm Beach police

department and  F not from |. When I talk later,

just want to make sure you realize that that had not

initially come cut in ] interview, but through the

interview with [| }.

So going back. I'm sorry, discrepancies?

Q Yes.

A I met with [ last
the discrepancies when looking
detective ne about in March
testified to in the grand jury

the testimony and listening to

night to discuss some of
at what she had talked to
of 2005 and what she had

in July of 2006. Reading

the tapes, or reading the.

transcript, there were a few discrepancies.

One of the first ones we talked about was what

BE had told her about going to Mr. Epstein's house.

She tells detective [ that

she was told about the

massage, told about getting $200, but that she was not

told that she would have to take her clothes off. She

didn't know she would have to perform the massage naked.

When I asked her last night that question, she

told me that when she got to the house prior to going into

Page 19
1 Mr. Epstein's residence, that [Jf did tell her that she

2 may be asked to take off her clothes. She also did state
3 that J} told her she could stay in her bra.

4 So I wanted you to know that there was a

5 discrepancy in what she originally had told detective

5 | 2nd what she told me last night. That would be one.
7 The second discrepancy I wanted to touch on with
8 her was going upstairs and taking off her clothing. When
3 she is in that room, she states to detective [| that

10 I asked her to remove her clothing, and she took off

11 her shirt. Then Mr. Epstein came in the room, shook her

12 hand and told her to take off her clothes. He leaves, he
13 comes back in a towel. He tells her again. BE tells
14 detective ] in a stern voice, "Mr. Epstein told me to
15 take off my pants." Because she hadn't taken off her

16 pants from the first time that she met him.

17 In her testimony with the grand jury with the

18 state, she tells the grand jury that it was I who

13 asked her to remove her clothing. So last night we went
20 over with her who told her to remove what. She had a very
21 hard time recalling exactly. She knew she had gotten down

22 to her bra and underwear. And then at some point, when

we're going through the sexual activity, she actually

tells me that her underwear was off when he vas BE

we have in her testimony to the grand jury and her

Page 20 |

Later in the interview, we tell her about what

statements made to detective [Jl 2nd she really is

having a difficult time trying to remember who told her to

take off her clothes and her pants. As we are walking
through the sexual activity, she does recall and states.
that it was Mr. Epstein who told her to take off her
pants.

I guess I'll go to the third discrepancy. Is

there anything I left off with that?

Q well, does she report that when the assistant
leads -- or the blonde lady leads her upstairs, that the
blonde lady also said, "Get undressed," but that [J
didn't get fully undressed?

A That's what she said in her statement to the
detective, when she gives her first statement. She tells
us again last night that that's what she recalled.

Q That the lady said first, "Get undressed," but
she doesn't get fully undressed. And when Jeffrey comes
back, he said, "Take your pants off."?

A Yes. And again, like I said, when we started
interviewing her and asking her about this, she did have a
hard time. But when we were walking through the sexual

activity, that's when she recalls who told her to take off

her pants.

EFTA00009467

2 sexual activity, and it comes out that she wasn't wearing

4 I she does not recall how they came off.

5 She cannot remember removing her underwear. She doesn't

6 remember 1f Mr. Epstein removed her underwear. She knows
7 her underwear was off, but she cannot tell you exactly at
8 what point her underwear was removed.

3 Q Let's talk about the third discrepancy.

10 F: The third is the sexual activity, when she was
11 originally interviewed by detective [JN about the

13 IB comes and sees her again a few weeks later, she does

15 She also says that to the grand jury, she talks about the

1 she did not know that [Jj had told anybody, she thought

2 it was only her and [| that knew. She was embarrassed
3 and didn't want anybody to know that.

4 Q Did she become visually upset?

5 A Yes, she began crying when we asked her about

6 oo] when she realized that we

7 knew about that, she became very upset and concerned about
8 her father. She mentioned that her father has read a lot

9 of the reports in the State of Florida, and has followed

10 the state's case. She was concerned about even telling
11 us, afraid that he would be able to-read in our reports
12 about this. (
13 We explained to her that the FBI's reporting is
14 a little bit different than the way the state -- those are
15 public records, and ours is part of our case file.
16 Q In addition to the fact that she had these
17 concerns about her father and she was embarrassed, in your
18 experience of interviewing victims of sexual abuse, is it
13 typical for them to not disclose all of the sexual
20 activity?
21 A Yes, it's very typical. And young girls, they
22 don't want to talk about it. This is just another case of
23 her not wanting to tell exactly what tock place.
