doing. Yes. I didn't --
TODD BLANCHE: So --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- I didn't hire any
electrician on the plane. Okay.
TODD BLANCHE: -- so unequivocally,
unequivocally from what you know, and you only know
what you know --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I only know what I
know.
TODD BLANCHE: -- but from what you know,
you do not believe a camera exists, or a video camera
or a camera that takes pictures, inside any of his
residences?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Correct.
TODD BLANCHE: So even the appropriate
cameras that you just talked about, which would be
kind of exterior security cameras, did you know
whether there was any cameras, that you're aware of,
inside any of the locations?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Never, with one
exception.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. What's the
exception?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: The exception is
Palm Beach.
Page 79
TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: And the reason -- so
in Palm Beach, Epstein was having money stolen. He
noticed money was being stolen from his briefcase,
call it his briefcase. And he called in the
Palm Beach police and they, the Palm Beach police
installed cameras on where he kept his briefcase.
TODD BLANCHE: Where was that? Do you
remember?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: At his desk in -- so
the house on the ground floor was -- he had a desk,
sort of ina corner. There was that camera. I think
there was another camera. I think there were two or
maybe three cameras. I believe only on the ground
floor, wherever he may have had -- maybe he had
another office in the cabana. There may have been a
camera there.
TODD BLANCHE: When was this? I'm not
looking for an exact date, but what time period are
you thinking about when you say this?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: 2003. I think I can
date it for you precisely, actually, 2003. I'm
pretty firm on that date.
TODD BLANCHE: So --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: And I can be firm

because John Alessi, the butler was fired in the end
of 2002 and he was the thief.
TODD BLANCHE: So aside from law
enforcement installing a camera, to try to catch
somebody stealing money from Mr. Epstein, you're not
aware of any cameras at the island -- no. Sorry.
You're -- just so we record it because ...
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Oh, sorry -- sorry --
SOITy.
TODD BLANCHE: No. That's okay. You were
nodding your head no.
So what about --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No cameras anywhere,
outside of, possibly, things that would -- I would
consider -- myself, I would consider normal. So the
garage gate, something like that, a front door.
TODD BLANCHE: Outside, like security
cameras?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Security cameras.
TODD BLANCHE: No. I -- I--
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: And there were cameras
inside in the 71st Street that did the plant, the
physical plant, because it was a commercial building.
So you had the whole -- that's a real thing there.
It's a commercial building.

And there were -- there was one camera on
the -- on the front door, internal, from the internal
that did the front door, as I recall. But I -- there
were no other cameras inside the house.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever -- how about
photographs. Did you ever observe Mr. Epstein, or
anybody around him, take pictures of anybody in
compromising positions with women or with -- or with
anybody?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever hear, when you
were present for conversations that Mr. Epstein was
having, or others were having, anybody accuse him of
blackmailing them or of trying to extort them,
because of something Mr. Epstein knew?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No.
TODD BLANCHE: There have been -- and --
and you -- you -- in the discovery you got in the
New York case, okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
TODD BLANCHE: And in the civil cases that
you've been part of --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
TODD BLANCHE: -- associated with
Mr. Epstein, have you ever been given or ever been
