Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN Document 97-5 Filed 12/14/20 Page 3 of 3 numerous occasions that she wanted to be available to deal with any civil or criminal allegations, to confront these and to deal with them in situ. She provided evidence under oath in deposition in civil litigation rather than stay silent which is a good illustration of her candour. From my own experience, I can confirm that Ghislaine is kind, thoughtful and generous whether it is helping friends who have fallen on difficult times such as a friend who was recently widowed and to whom Ghislaine provided her own home in London immediately; or mviting my children and their friends when on their gap year to stay with her and to sort out transport, housing and friends to support them on their travels; or whether devoting considerable resources and time to her philanthropic activity primarily in oceans conservation. I have offered to co-sign a bond in the amount of US$3,500,000 where the amount of the bond would be secured by properties owned by as this represents the entirety of realisable family wealth; I do this 1n support o judgement in relation to Ghislaine’s integrity and commitment to attend court and to underline that the family would be left without resources in the event that the bond was called.
