1
A

2
Q
The last time you were here we were discussing
3
the evidence supporting various overt acts and charges
4
related to Jane Does number 1 and 2?
5
A
Yes.
6
Q
Today we are going to start with Jane Doe
7
number 3. Can you tell the Grand Jury who that is and
8
summarize briefly your previous testimony about her.
9
A
Jane Doe number 3 is
and she first
10
started, we have first phone contact with
11
starting in December of 2004,
would have been 16
12
or 17 at that time, let me do the math real quick, she
13
would have been 16 -- sorry, 1 am sorry, she would have
14
been at that time 17, let's get it right, so she started
15
phone contact,
started calling her in
16
September of 2004.
17
From testimony we know that
went there
18
earlier, much earlier.
which was Jane Doe
19
number 4 you will hear about next, they were good
20
friends and they both went in the spring of '04, prior
21
to
17th birthday, so
did start giving
22
Mr. Epstein massages when she was 16, she performed a
23
few massages for Mr. Epstein and then took kind of a
24
little bit of a break.
25
The sexual activity that occurred with
OFFICIAL REPORTING SERVICE (
EFTA00224042
4
1
Mr. Epstein when
was under the age of 18
2
included digital penetration, the use of a vibrator on
3
grabbing and fondling of her breasts and her
4
buttock, she was given gifts by Mr. Epstein, she was
5
given a vibrator, she was given Victoria secret
6
underwear, she was also given a car that Mr. Epstein
7
rented for her for a number of months, she was paid $200
8
by Mr. Epstein and
was the one that primarily
9
called
to set up appointments and as you can see
10
that began in December of '04.
11
was also one of Mr. Epstein's
12
favorites, according to several of the other girls.
13
Q
Just so the Grand Jury has an idea, how does
14
that translate
15
and
that you were able to calculate?
16
A
called her, I guess calls between
17
the two of them ranged around 125 phone calls from
18
December 6th, 2004 until October, 2005.
19
Q
And just briefly can you remind the Grand Jury
20
did
ever tell Mr. Epstein her age?
21
A
No, they did not ever discuss, she did not
22
tell him how old she was, but she did tell him where she
23
planned on going to school and that she was in soccer.
24
She stated that when it came to her age that
25
Mr. Epstein didn't care. As I mentioned earlier,
into the number of phone calls between

were very good friends and
would talk
about
and Mr. Epstein would ask questions about
was providing massages and as we will
talk about when we talk about Jane Doe number 4, which
is
she told Mr. Epstein that she was a junior in
high school and that
and her were in the same
classes together and that they were very good friends
and
told us that at one point
had come to
her because she had slipped about prom and she was
10
11
worried because Epstein was supposed to
and she had talked about the prom and
think she was 18
said she
12
never heard anything else about it and they never
13
brought it up.
14
Q
Because, according to
Mr. Epstein
15
didn't care really how old the girls were?
16
A
Exactly.
17
Q
And she never mentioned he asked her for her
18
age or asked for any form of identification to show
19
whether she was or was not over 18?
20
A
No.
21
Q
Now, if you could turn to the proposed
22
indictment and if I could ask you to look at overt act
23
number 59.
24
A
we had a little knock at the door. Do you
25

22
23
age when she started going to Mr. Epstein's and
performing massages for Mr. Epstein.
24
our Jane Doe number 1, was the one
25
who recruited
she basically told
that she

18
1
could make $200, she needed to dress cute, he might try
2
to touch you, but if you feel uncomfortable just let him
3
know and he will stop, and the first massage that
4
did he repeatedly told
and I mentioned this to
5
you in the last Grand Jury session, she was very shy and
6
he would repeatedly tell her not to be so shy, that she
7
didn't have to be so shy.
8
Epstein asked her to remove her clothing and
9
she told him no, and throughout the massage he would
10
repeatedly grab at her, he grabbed her butt, he did
11
masturbate through this first massage and pulled her
12
clothes, she would pull away and she was paid $200 for
13
that.
14
upon leaving the first massage Mr. Epstein
15
told
that if
was willing to do more she
16
would get paid more. He also informed I
that if she
17
would bring her pretty friends he would also pay her for
18
bringing her pretty friends. He told
that
19
would get her phone number.

Mr. Epstein. At this point, this is as much as we know
2
at this point of what occurred with Mr. Epstein and
3
4
She did three to four massages and those last
5
massages they became more sexual in nature, he asked her
6
again to remove her clothing, this time she took her

shirt off, he asked her to take her bra off, she said
8
no.
9
He again would touch her breasts, he would
10
touch her butt, he did continue to masturbate, this time
11
she believes he ejaculated. He continued to compliment
12
her, tell her she had a nice body and that she was
13
pretty.
14
says that he was very nice and engaged
15
her in conversation, asked her, you know, if she had a
16
boyfriend. In the last massage she discusses with me,
17
and this massage Mr. Epstein told her to stop being shy
18
and asked her to take her clothes off and
said
19
that she had a boyfriend and she didn't feel comfortable

2
pulled it down and fondled her breasts, he had
3
instructed her to pinch his chest, his nipples while she
4
was massaging his chest, he tried to grab her all over,
5
he knew that she was upset with this massage.
6
At one point Mr. Epstein asked her if she had
7
sex with her boyfriend,
informs him that she is
8
still a virgin and he responds what, you don't like sex?
And that's pretty much the way that last massage went.
just to
interrupt you, you mentioned that Jane Doe number 4
became very upset as you were asking her about the
massages, correct?
A
Yes.
Q
And when she was describing this incident with
him grabbing at her breast and trying to pull her pants
down and instructing her to remove her pants, correct?

A
She became so visibly upset, and a lot of the
5
girls are embarrassed of what took place, but when she
6
talked about the last massage and him grabbing her
7
breasts and fondling her breasts she was in tears and we
8
stopped the massage and we calmed her down, trying to go

back there was just too difficult, I could not get her
10
back to discussing anything further that had taken
11
place.
12
I have since then -- I have since talked to

again and I feel there is more there, but I just
14
don't think she is ready to disclose what took place.

that conversation, you know, she did inform Mr. Epstein
2
that she was a junior in high school and again she is

one of the girls that talks about
being Mr.
4
Epstein's favorite, so because Mr. Epstein knew they
5
were friends they would engage in conversation about

and
would mention they were in the same
7
classes at school and they would discuss the friendship

they had between the two girls with mr. Epstein and
