Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE Document 208 Filed 04/16/21 Page 7 of 16 ° She “persuaded” Giuffre to go to Epstein’s mansion “in a fashion very similar to the manner in which Epstein and his other co-conspirators coerced dozens of other children.” /d. ° Ms. Maxwell “appreciated the immunity” she acquired under Epstein’s plea agreement, because the immunity protected her from prosecution “for the crimes she committed in Florida.” /d. ° Ms. Maxwell “assist[ed] in internationally trafficking” Giuffre and “numerous other young girls for sexual purposes.” Jd. a Giuffre was “forced” to watch Epstein, Ms. Maxwell and others “engage in illegal sexual acts with dozens of underage girls.” Jd. In the joinder motion, Giuffre also alleged she was “forced” to have sex with Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, “model scout” Jean Luc Brunel, and “many other powerful men, including numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known Prime Minister, and other world leaders.” /d. at 4-6. Giuffre said after serving for four years as a “sex slave,” she “managed to escape to a foreign country and hide out from Epstein and his co-conspirators for years.” Jd. at 3. Giuffre suggested the government was part of Epstein’s “conspiracy” when it “secretly” negotiated a non-prosecution agreement with Epstein precluding federal prosecution of Epstein and his “co-conspirators.” /d. at 6. The government’s secrecy, Giuffre alleged, was motivated by its fear that Giuffre would raise “powerful objections” to the agreement that would have “shed tremendous public light on Epstein and other powerful individuals.” Jd. at 6-7. As Giuffre and her lawyers expected, before District Judge Marra in the CVRA action could strike the “lurid details” of Giuffre’s allegations in the joinder motion, members of the media obtained copies of the motion, printed the “lurid” details in tabloid news publications, and sought comment from Ms. Maxwell, Professor Dershowitz and others. On January 2, 2015, UK lawyers for Ms. Maxwell sent representatives of British media organizations an email containing “a quotable statement on behalf of Ms. Maxwell.” The email DOJ-OGR-00003715
