In --
TODD BLANCHE: So when would that have
been, approximately?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: 1990.
TODD BLANCHE: So before --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: 1999. I don't -- I --
something like that.
TODD BLANCHE: But would that have been
before you met Mr. Epstein?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Or maybe -- yes.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you have a -- any sort
of professional or social relationship with John F.
Kennedy, Jr.?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I fancied him.

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I thought he was very
attractive.
TODD BLANCHE: Oh, you fancied him.

of, you know, social relationship with him?

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I mean, we knew each
other. I thought he was wonderful and fun and I
enjoyed meeting him, but I -- we went out -- I want
to say we had a dinner or two, but obviously I was
very excited, but that was it.
TODD BLANCHE: And then Alan Dershowitz.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I -- what's the
question with Alan?
TODD BLANCHE: Do you -- say that again.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: What's the question?
TODD BLANCHE: Do you know Mr. Dershowitz?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
TODD BLANCHE: Do you know whether he knew
Mr. Epstein? Do you know the nature of their
relationship?

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- and if I met him
separate from -- I don't remember.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So that I have no

relationship prior to that. I don't remember. Oh, I
do actually. Sorry.
I think they met at the same
Martha's Vineyard through Lynn Forester. I think
that's what happened. I think that's it.
TODD BLANCHE: And why do you think that?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Because it just popped
into my head.
TODD BLANCHE: Okay. And did you -- did
you -- you said that Mr. Dershowitz was Mr. Epstein's
attorney.
Do you know whether they also socialized?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So my personal memory
of when I remember two -- [ have two distinct
memories with Alan. One is with him and his wife at
the island, and I actually remember that. And I
remember, I think, going to his house in Boston, if
he had a house in Boston, that's -- it was only two
times I remember.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever observe
Mr. Dershowitz domg anything inappropriate with
young women around Mr. Epstein?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Never.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever hear
anybody -- did anybody ever tell you that he had done

anything inappropriate?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Absolutely not.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever -- did you --
do you know one way or the other, whether
Mr. Dershowitz ever got a massage at the island or
any of the locations that he was at with Mr. Epstein?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I don't remember
anything about him ever getting massaged. I don't
ever have any recoll- -- I don't believe I ever even
saw him ina bathrobe. I have no knowledge of that.
TODD BLANCHE: I'm jumping around a little
bit. You mentioned, I think briefly the TerraMar
Project.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
TODD BLANCHE: What is that?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I founded TerraMar
in -- well, the idea of TerraMar came, I think in
2010. So I want to just explain TerraMar a little
bit.
So Ted and I bought a boat -- well, Ted
bought the boat. Andi its -- basis of the boat was to
do explorations and sea -- sea exploratory stuff.
This really started because I have, and have had

everything aquatic. And I've always been, I just --
