money, I wasn't there. I mean, he -- I really had a
separate life. We really had separate lives --
TODD BLANCHE: Okay.

TODD BLANCHE: But it wasn't from --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: It wasn't from me.
TODD BLANCHE: -- from you?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No. It was not.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. And what's your
understanding of what Mr. Epstein did for
Ms. Johnson?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Same as what he did
for Wexner. And when I -- and you have to
understand, it -- it went down to, in tiny details.
So I remember this -- I remember, this is an actual
memory, that he would make the contracts for the
maids, for the people who worked in their homes.
TODD BLANCHE: So he would assist his
clients, at times, with -- you're saying with even
small things like contractual relations with --
with --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He said no detail was
too small, because everything that affected how they
lived and how they managed their life, was something
Page 67
that he felt he was -- if they want, he would be
responsible for, to make sure that the contract -- so
that if you had to fire someone, it wouldn't come
back and sue you or if that -- that sort of ...
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So Mr. Black,
Mr. Werner [sic] -- Ms. Johnson. Who else?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: What's the name of the
woman from Ohio (inaudible).
TODD BLANCHE: Know someone named
Jes Staley.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yeah. I do know Jes.
TODD BLANCHE: Who's that?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He was at Morgan
Stanley and at Barclays.
TODD BLANCHE: What do -- do you know
whether he and Mr. Epstein had a relationship?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Well, not a -- not a
physical one.
TODD BLANCHE: Well --
DAVID MARKUS: Business one.
TODD BLANCHE: -- I didn't suggest.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Sorry, I just --
TODD BLANCHE: No. I'm saying a -- a
relationship in the broadest sense of word; business,
personal --

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
TODD BLANCHE: -- both. Okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes. Both.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. And do you know when
they met?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No. I-- no. I don't
know when they met. But you can time it. Well, I
don't know that you can. No. I don't know.
TODD BLANCHE: So, but what was the nature
of their relationship, as far as you know?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I think they were
friends and I think that they were business partners.
Well, partners, too strong a word, but they were --
they did business together.
TODD BLANCHE: So did you -- again, I want
to stay focused on the time where you were the most
involved in his life, so --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: The '90s.
TODD BLANCHE: -- the early '90s through
early 2000s.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: And the beginning --
beginning of the 2000s, yes.
TODD BLANCHE: Did -- did you -- so we
talked about four people, so --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: There's more.
Page 69
TODD BLANCHE: -- were there more? Okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Oh, yes. There were
more. There was a lady whose name I just can't --
can I get my book? Maybe I wrote them down.
TODD BLANCHE: Sure.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: (Indiscernible)
Epstein wouldn't really let me meet his clients.
TODD BLANCHE: What book are you using?
What is that?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I wrote some notes for
the meeting.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. Great. Okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Is that alright?
TODD BLANCHE: No. That's fine. I just
was curious what -- what we're looking at.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Oh, okay.
DAVID MARKUS: Not the birthday book.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: It's not the birthday
book. No. We are going to come to that, I'm sure.
TODD BLANCHE: Yeah.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: All right. I wrote
down some names because I tried to make -- I just
want you to understand my -- my memory's not as good
as it was, because when I was in Brooklyn, I was in
the SHU for almost two years, and I was on suicide
