his -- I don't know if he was chief of staff or
whoever, Boris. And I met him, I think, once. I may
have met him actually at 71st Street. I may have
once. I don't remember if I met him there or at a
restaurant, I don't remember. And that would've been
because of Epstein, because Epstein was friendly with
Boris and Boris -- that's all I remember.
TODD BLANCHE: Do you know whether
Mr. Gates traveled with Mr. Epstein on his plane to
any of his houses?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So if that -- that
friendship was after, you know, it was in the late
2000s. So if I met him -- like I said, I went to
Epstein's house maybe once or twice. Maybe I met him
there. I don't remember.
TODD BLANCHE: So you don't --
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So I wouldn't know if
he had been on Epstein's plane.
TODD BLANCHE: And you weren't -- you
don't recall ever being on the plane with him flying
to the island or to anywhere?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No.
TODD BLANCHE: Do you know somebody named
Reid Hoffman?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I do.
Page 183
TODD BLANCHE: Who's that?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Reid is a Silicon
Valley guy.
TODD BLANCHE: Is what?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Silicon Valley.
TODD BLANCHE: And how do you know him?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Through my friends in
San Francisco. I have a -- I used to have a very
close friend who is in San Francisco who's part of
that whole -- I have several, actually, or had.
TODD BLANCHE: So is that a relationship
you had kind of separate and apart from Mr. Epstein?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Separate.
TODD BLANCHE: Do you know whether
Mr. Epstein had a relationship with Reid Hoffman?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I don't know.
TODD BLANCHE: Did you ever observe
Mr. Hoffman flying anywhere with you or Mr. Epstein?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No.
TODD BLANCHE: Or getting massages?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No. No.
TODD BLANCHE: So there was -- there's a
list of multiple masseuses that is floating around.
I think you had in your discovery. I think you were
just talking about that.

That list, do you know how that list was
created?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No. That -- all that
stuff that came out of that book, I now find suspect.
TODD BLANCHE: As far -- as part of the
story you just told us?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes. Now, I'm not
saying it's all fake. I don't know what's real and
what's not. I don't --
TODD BLANCHE: Understood.
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- know what name is
true. Now that it's been to my mind anyway, now that
it has been, without a doubt, contaminated and
possibly fraudulent, I'm not -- I don't know. I
mean, obviously the numbers that I recognize are my
own, those are real.
But how it was actually ended up put
together and compiled and the purposes for it, for
which then they blackmailed my boyfriend, now I'm
just -- no.
TODD BLANCHE: Over the years when you
were serving as like the general manager, so the mid
‘90s all the way into the 2000s. Did you or do you
know whether anyone maintained a list of all the
masseuses, like a running list?
Page 185
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So there would've --
so there's two things -- well, three ways. So I know
that the house itself, John Alessi had a Rolodex that
he kept the names and numbers of all the people that
came to the house so that he could call.
So --because I only was with Epstein, even
at best, half the time. So when I was there, he had
like his chief of staff who could find whatever he
needed. And when I wasn't there, he had to rely on
somebody else, right? So it'd be that John Alessi or
whoever else.
So everybody -- whoever was traveling with
him or wherever he was, he needed somebody else to
access information. So he had an assistant chief who
was his secretary, who would be the one that would
update his computer, you know, like everybody has an
address book.
TODD BLANCHE: But was what you're
describing, which I'm not -- it makes sense. I'm
just -- was that a list of masseuses or a list of
people that might need to be contacted, which would,
necessarily, include a lot of masseuses?
GHISLAINE MAXWELL: That's -- the latter.
TODD BLANCHE: And did you update that?
Like were you part of -- were you one of the people
