10. At all times material to this cause of action, Defendants Jeffrey Epstein,
Ghislaine Maxwell,
and
owed a duty to Plaintiff to treat
her in a non-negligent manner and not to commit or conspire to commit
intentional, criminal, fraudulent, or tortious acts against her, including any acts in
violation of 18 U.S.C. §1595.
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
11. At all times material to this cause of action, Defendant Jeffrey Epstein was
an adult male over 50 years old. Defendant Epstein is widely recognized as a
billionaire who uses his extraordinary wealth to commit illegal sexual crimes in
violation of federal and state statutes and to employ and conspire with a group of
numerous others, including each of the named Defendants, to assist in committing
those crimes and additional torts as well as to conceal the crimes and torts of the
Epstein sex trafficking group from being discovered.
12. Defendant Epstein displays his enormous wealth, power and influence to his
employees; to the victims procured for sexual purposes; and to the public in order
to advance and carry out his crimes and torts. At all relevant times, Defendant
Epstein owned and continues to own, directly or through nominee individuals used
to conceal his interests, a fleet of airplanes, motor vehicles, boats and one or more
helicopters. For example, he owned (directly or indirectly) a Boeing aircraft (of
make and model B-727-31H with tail number N908JE) and a Gulfstream aircraft
3
EFTA00615941
Case 1:17-cv-00616-3GK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 4 of 31
(of make and model G-1159B with tail number N909JE).
He also owned
numerous properties and homes, including a 51,000-square-foot mansion in
Manhattan; a $30 Million, 7,500-acre ranch in New Mexico; a 70-acre private
island formerly known as Little St. James in or near St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin
Islands; a home in Paris, France; and a mansion in Palm Beach County, Florida.
The allegations herein primarily concern the defendant's conduct while at his
townhouse in New York; on one or more of his private airplanes; and on his
private island in the United States Virgin Islands. Epstein used all of the real and
personal property described in this paragraph to facilitate the illegal sex trafficking
venture and enterprise described in this Complaint and in furtherance of that
venture and enterprise.
13. Defendant Epstein has a compulsive sexual preference for young females as
young as 13 and as "old" as 25. Through information and belief Defendant Epstein
engages in sexual acts with this age range every day and developed, through the
employment of and conspiracy with the other Defendants, a sex trafficking venture
and enterprise designed to fulfill his sexual desires and conceal the operation of the
venture and enterprise and conduct of its participants. As part of the venture and
enterprise, Epstein also provided young females for sexual purposes to his friends
in order to secure social, business, and other contacts as well as other things of
value.
4
EFTA00615942
Case 1:17-cv-00616-3GK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 5 of 31
14. Defendant Maxwell was for decades the highest-ranking employee of the
Defendants' sex trafficking venture and enterprise. She herself recruited young,
including underage, females; oversaw and trained other recruiters on how best to
recruit girls for sex; developed and executed schemes designed to recruit young
females; and ensured that all participants of the Defendants' sex trafficking scheme
acted in certain specific ways in order to advance the purposes of the scheme,
including providing young females to Epstein for sexual purposes on a daily basis,
and concealing these activities from law enforcement.

EFTA00615943
Case 1:17-cv-00616-3GK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 6 of 31
Recruiters were taught by Defendants Epstein, Maxwell =II
to inform
targeted victims that Epstein possessed extraordinary wealth, power, resources and
influence; that he was a philanthropist who would help female victims advance
their careers and lives; and that the recruits needed only to provide Epstein with
body massages in order to avail themselves of his financial assistance and
influence. In fact, however, these representations were fraudulent.
and the Defendants did not help nor intend to help advance the victims'
careers. Victims were also paid to bring Epstein other young females for sex and
were told by Defendants Epstein, Maxwell, and
that those young females
who brought other females would further benefit from bringing other girls.

Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 7 of 31
18. The Defendants, led primarily by Defendants Epstein and Maxwell, fulfilled
Epstein's compulsive need for sex with young females by preying on their
personal, psychological, financial, and related vulnerabilities. The Defendants'
tactics included promising the victims money, shelter, transportation, gifts,
employment, admission into educational institutions, educational tuition,
protection, and other things of value in exchange for sex. Defendants also took
possession of the victims' passports to coerce compliance with their demands.
Defendants also trafficked young females to Epstein's friends and acquaintances in
order to secure financial and other benefits as well as social, educational, and
business connections.
19. Defendants' sex trafficking venture and enterprise operated in a hierarchal
structure with Defendants Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell at the top.
Defendants Epstein and Maxwell operated the sex trafficking scheme dating back
to at least the mid-nineties, and over the years perfected their roles and the roles of
others, both in terms of the ability to increase the volume of young females
recruited for sex and in insulating the enterprise from criminal investigation or
prosecution.

Underlings
unnamed co-
conspirators such as various housekeepers and butlers; an airplane pilot; and
various employees, assistants and associates. Wittingly and unwittingly, such
underlings performed their respective roles with the purpose and effect of insuring
that the enterprise supplied young females to Defendant Epstein and others for
sexual purposes.
At all times materials to this complaint, the venture and
enterprise was a group of two or more individuals associated in fact and deed.
20. Defendants Epstein and Maxwell, with help from assistants, associates and
underlings, recruited and procured hundreds of girls over the decades of the
operation of their scheme. Such recruitment and procurement included fraud,
coercion, threats, intimidation, fear, the threat of coercion, and a combination of
these and similar tactics. Following the Defendants' recruitment and procurement
of the young females to join Epstein in New York and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the
Defendants used fraudulent promises, coercion, and threats of coercion in order to
entice and coerce the females into sex and, once sexual activities ensued, to cause
them to remain in the enterprise.
The Defendants also transported females in
8
EFTA00615946
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 9 of 31
interstate and foreign commerce and in ways that affected interstate and foreign
commerce. The sex acts were commercial in nature, because the Defendants
promised to provide financial and other compensation to the females in exchange
for providing sex acts to Epstein.
22. Additionally, Defendants always made clear to every young female that they
were wealthy, well-connected and could either help or hurt the females depending
on their degree of cooperation. In fact, Defendants Epstein and Maxwell have
been known to threaten young females with physical harm. It is unknown exactly
how long the Defendants' criminal and illegal venture and enterprise operated,
although it was at least continuously and actively in operation from the mid-1990's
through and including the calendar year 2007.
23. Defendant Epstein has continued the venture and enterprise up to the present
time in some form or another and with additional co-conspirators and participants.
24. In 2005, Defendant Epstein and numerous co-conspirators within the venture
and enterprise were the subjects of a Palm Beach, Florida Police Department
criminal investigation which revealed that Defendant Epstein had engaged in
9
EFTA00615947
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 10 of 31
25. In 2006, the Palm Beach Police Department investigation was turned over to
the FBI and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of
Florida. The United States Attorney's Office investigated Defendant Epstein and
his co-conspirators for their violations of numerous federal statutes, including 18
U.S.C. Section 1591, one of the statutory bases for this complaint.
26. The United States Attorney's investigation continued from 2006 through
September 2007, at which time a Non-Prosecution Agreement was signed between
Jeffrey Epstein and the United States Attorney's Office deferring federal
prosecution of Defendant Epstein and his numerous co-conspirators,
for identified federal sex crimes against more than 30 minors.
27. From late 2006 through September 2007, Epstein's team of lawyers
negotiated with the federal government in an effort to avoid a fifty-three-page
Federal felony indictment from being filed against Epstein.
During these
10
EFTA00615948
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 11 of 31
negotiations, Defendant Epstein decamped from Palm Beach to New York and the
U.S. Virgin Islands in order to convey an image to prosecutors that he and his co-
conspirators had stopped committing sex crimes.
28. Remarkably, however—as this case will highlight—Defendant Epstein and
his co-Defendants, including the other defendants named herein, did not abandon
their sex trafficking venture and enterprise even while they were under state and
federal investigation for crimes committed in violation of 18 U.S.C. section 1591,
among other laws, and even as Defendants and their attorneys were busy arguing
Epstein's innocence and publicly defaming his victims as liars. Rather, Defendants
merely changed their location. Instead of targeting local Palm Beach Florida
school girls, the Defendants transported young females from other places in the
U.S. (including the Southern District of New York) and abroad and brought them
to Defendant Epstein's mansion in New York City and his private island in the
Virgin Islands.
29. In June of 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to Florida state felony sex offenses
for procuring a minor for prostitution and soliciting prostitution by minors and
registered as a Sex Offender for Life.
30. Defendants Epstein and Maxwell developed and implemented a
sophisticated system designed to insulate them from criminal and civil liability by
protecting them from potential testimony of knowledgeable subordinates.

31. In 2005, Defendant Epstein and other co-conspirators, aware that law
enforcement officials were preparing imminently to execute a search warrant for
his home, removed computer systems that logged information about Epstein and
his co-conspirators' illegal and criminal conduct; the identities of witnesses; nude

EFTA00615950
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 13 of 31
photographs of young females; scheduling books; message pads; tangible items
such as vibrators and toys; and other incriminating matter.
32. The sex recruiting and trafficking venture and enterprise designed to procure
young females for sexual purposes and to conceal those activities was developed
and fine-tuned over time, and each of the named Defendants had a well-defined
role and improved in his/her role over time, with practice and experience. By the
time Plaintiff was recruited into victimization, each Defendant had years of
experience perfecting methods of coercion, understanding Epstein's requirements,
and becoming more loyal to the continuance and survival of the venture and
enterprise. All of the Defendant's knew about the activities of the venture and
enterprise and worked in concert for the goals of the venture and knowingly
benefitted, financially and by receiving things of value, from their participation in
the venture and enterprise.
33. A typical ■
the Defendants procured young females for sex with
Defendant Epstein was to make false promises of a modeling opportunity, offer a
better life, offer payment for a formal education, or offer other money or
consideration.
34. Beginning in approximately October 2006 and continuing through April
2007,

Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 15 of 31
39. Defendant Maxwell told Plaintiff she would need to provide Defendant
Epstein with body massages in order to reap the benefits of his and Maxwell's
connections.
40. All Defendants, including Maxwell, Epstein,
and
knew that
Plaintiff was actually being recruited for sexual purposes, and each knowingly and
deliberately made false representations to ensure that Plaintiff would cooperate in
fulfilling Epstein's sexual desires. These false and flaudulent representations
included Defendants' telling Plaintiff that Epstein would use his connections to
have her admitted into
. or a similar institute, college, university or school of
higher learning and provide her with employment opportunities.
Plaintiff
reasonably relied on these representations and had a credible basis for such
reliance, including the credible representations of Epstein and the other Defendants
that they possessed extensive political, business, financial, social, and educational
influence and connections.
Epstein and the other Defendants represented to
Plaintiff in manners that were persuasive, credible, and reasonable to Plaintiff, as
they would have been to any other person similarly situated, that they had the
political, business, financial, social, educational, and other influence and
15
EFTA00615953
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 16 of 31
connections sufficient to arrange for and insure her admission into
. or a
similar school of higher learning.
41. Maxwell and Epstein also threatened Plaintiff that. while they had the ability
to advance her education and career, they also had the ability to make sure that
Plaintiff would not obtain formal education
f she
failed to provide the sexual favors desired by Defendant Epstein or abide by the
instructions given her by Defendants Epstein, M,
and Maxwell.
42. Plaintiff reasonably believed that her compliance with Defendants' demands
was crucial to her physical, psychological, financial. and reputational well-being
and survival.
44. Maxwell and Epstein informed Plaintiff that other young females in
Epstein's company were there also to perform sexual acts for Epstein and his
friends.
16
EFTA00615954
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 17 of 31
The Defendants all participated in arranging for Plaintiff
to be transported in interstate and foreign commerce, and affecting interstate and
foreign commerce, for these sexual purposes. The Defendants Epstein, Maxwell,
and
46. During many sexual encounters, Defendant Epstein gave Plaintiff no option,
opportunity, or choice not to participate in the prescribed sexual acts.
47. Defendant Maxwell frequently controlled the assignment, or "rotation," of
Plaintiff and the other young females concerning the time, place and manner of the
sex acts they were told to provide to Defendant Epstein.
17
EFTA00615955
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 18 of 31
50. Defendant Epstein's wealth, influence, power and connections were used by
Defendants Maxwell,
and M,
both as an inducement to provide sex (in
exchange for promises of support to Plaintiff) and as a means of threatening
punishment (in the event Plaintiff refused to comply with Defendants' instructions
to provide sex to Epstein and others).
51. In addition to Plaintiffs being trafficked on Epstein's private airplane,
Defendants IM, Maxwell and
, with the knowledge of and instruction by
Defendant Epstein,
18
EFTA00615956
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 19 of 31
53. The relationship between Plaintiff and Defendants Epstein and Maxwell was
defined and characterized by Defendant Epstein's and Defendant Maxwell's
frequent and persistent fraudulent representations that they would provide Plaintiff
with a formal education and career advancement if she provided sex to Defendant
19
EFTA00615957
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 20 of 31
Epstein and others in the times, places and manners demanded by Defendants.
Plaintiff reasonably relied
on these representations. In fact, however, these representations were knowingly
false, were not acted upon by Defendants, and were made by Defendants Epstein,
M , =,
and Maxwell solely for the purpose of maintaining Plaintiffs
financial dependence on, emotional vulnerability to, and sexual compliance with
Defendant Epstein's demands. The other Defendants intentionally repeated these
representations and intentionally made statements designed to convince Plaintiff
that the representations were true and could be relied upon. These representations
and statements were made to Plaintiff in furtherance of the sex trafficking venture
and enterprise for which they were each employed.
20
EFTA00615958
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 21 of 31
55. In January 2007, as part of their illegal venture and enterprise, Defendants
sent Plaintiff from New York City, in the Southern District of New York, to
o recruit, for a promised fee, one or more aspiring female models
supposedly for Epstein to use as a personal assistant. The Defendants did not care
whether the prospective female was qualified to work as a personal assistant
because each knew that the female recruit would be immediately placed into the
same sexually vulnerable position as Plaintiff (and the dozens of other victims of
the sex trafficking enterprise) and would be induced and coerced into being used
for sex through fraudulent representations and other means.

Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 22 of 31
57. As part of their ongoing scheme, Defendants inflicted serious emotional and
psychological harm on Plaintiff as a means of coercing her to continue engaging in
commercial sex acts with Epstein and others. While Plaintiff was in South Africa,
Defendants Epstein and Maxwell informed Plaintiff that she would not be
permitted to return to the United States to receive her promised education unless
she underwent a diet and lowered her body weight
22
EFTA00615960
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 23 of 31
58. As part of their scheme, Defendants Epstein and Maxwell called Plaintiff's
parents in South Africa to tell them that Defendant Epstein would take good care
of Plaintiff when she returned to the United States, and that Defendants Maxwell
and Epstein would use their connections and influence to have her admitted to
or another well-regarded fashion school or school of higher learning.
59.
As part of their scheme, Epstein and
told Plaintiff that she should fill
out an application for admission to
, and supporting essay, and send it to
Epstein for his review. Pursuant to these instructions, Plaintiff completed an
application, and supporting essay, and sent it to Epstein. As part of his scheme,
Epstein told Plaintiff that he had reviewed these materials. His statements were
intended to convince Plaintiff, and had the effect of convincing plaintiff (as they
would have convinced any reasonable person), that her admission to
was a
"done deal" if she would comply with his instructions.
also made the same
representations to plaintiff on Epstein's behalf. Plaintiff reasonably relied on these
representations by Epstein and
60. As part of their scheme, Epstein and Maxwell told Plaintiff that they had
contacts at
and at modeling agencies who could ensure her admission to
and advance Plaintiff's career.
As part of their scheme, Epstein and
Maxwell told Plaintiff about Epstein's vast wealth and specifically identified him
as a billionaire.
Epstein and Maxwell told Plaintiff that they had extensive
23
EFTA00615961
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 24 of 31
contacts, in addition to those identified above, throughout New York City and
elsewhere.
61. In February of 2007, in reliance on promises made by the Defendants,
Plaintiff
Maxwell and Epstein would use their power, influence and connections in order to
ainti
Plaintiff knew that if she did not comply, Defendants
ensure that Plaintiff was unable to gain admission to
. or a comparable school,
and that they would destroy her career, just as they had destroyed the careers of
others who had failed to comply with their demands.
62. Defendants Epstein and Maxwell continued to provide Plaintiff with things
of value in exchange for Plaintiff's continued compliance with Epstein's sexual
demands; however, they failed and refused to perform their promises to help
Plaintiff be admitted to
or another school, or to provide financial support for
24
EFTA00615962
Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 25 of 31
college admission or on-going education, false promises they repeatedly made in
order to coerce her into commercial sex acts.
63. Defendants' sexual demands on Plaintiff continued while she was in New
York City, in the Southern District of New York, or in other locations in close
proximity to the Defendants.
64. In May, 2007, Plaintiff left the United States and did not return. Between
returning from
in February 2007 and leaving in May 2007,
65. In and after May 2007, Defendants actively concealed and covered up what
they had done to Plaintiff and other similarly situated females. Defendant's cover-
up included efforts to intimidate witnesses who might provide corroborating
testimony to Plaintiff as well as destruction of documents and other evidence
regarding what they had done.
25

Case 1:17-cv-00616-JGK Document 45 Filed 06/05/17 Page 26 of 31
66. Unknown to Plaintiff, Defendants' representations and promises to Plaintiff
were all false and fraudulent. Plaintiff reasonably relied on the representations and
promises of the Defendants. Plaintiff also considered the Defendants' threats
against the current and future well-being and safety of Plaintiff to be real and
credible. All such representations, promises, and threats were made solely for the
purpose of coercing and otherwise inducing Plaintiff into prolonged sexual
compliance. Defendants knowingly benefitted financially and received things of
value as a result of coercing and inducing Plaintiff into sexual compliance and
otherwise participating in their illegal venture and enterprise.
