there. It was not, as Mr. Cassell misleadingly suggests, an affirmation that Ms. Giuffre and I
were present at Mr. Epstein’s house at the same time.
37. In fact, Mr. Alessi has since provided an affidavit flatly denying that he
saw both Ms. Giuffre and I at the Palm Beach mansion at the same time.
“T was never asked by any attorneys if Virginia Roberts came to

mansion, Mr. Cassell and Mr. Edwards also misrepresented other aspects of Juan Alessi’s
testimony. For example, in an affidavit, Mr. Alessi states that:
