PBCRA obtained information from the City of Palm Beach Police Department (PBPD) that a fourteen- year-old girl who lives in Loxahatchee, Florida, in the Southern District of Florida, and who attended Royal Palm Beach High School, provided Epstein "sexual massages". The fourteen-year-old girl informed PBPD that she had been paid $300.00 by Jeffrey Epstein to perform a "sexual massage", which entailed providing a massage to Epstein while he was naked and the fourteen-year-old was wearing . During the massage, Epstein masturbated himself, Following the receipt of the case files from the PBPD, PBCRA began interviewing a series of girls, ranging in age from fourteen through mid to early twenties, who reported a similar series of events. In particular, the girls described how contact was made via telephone, primarily with , Epstein's assistant, to arrange times for the girls to "work" at Epstein's home in Palm Beach. The girls would travel to Epstein's residence, usually in the company of another girl. The girls would enter Epstein's home via the kitchen, where they would be met by Epstein and/or . The girls would be escorted up to Epstein's bedroom where a massage table was accessible. The girls were told to undress - some undressed only partially and some undressed completely.

After a period of time EFTA00269744 when the girl massaged Epstein's back, he would turn over and lie face up. While lying face up, Epstein would continue to instruct the girl on how to conduct the massage. Epstein also would masturbate himself and, . When Epstein ejaculated, the "massage" was over. The girls received between $200 and $300 for the sexual massages. In addition to these sexual massages, some of the girls were paid additional sums to perform more sexual activity, for example, engaging in sexual activity with another female Epstein employee, while Epstein watched. During the course of PBPD's investigation, a search warrant for Epstein's home was obtained and executed. Many of Epstein's belongings were removed from the home prior to the execution of the search warrant - for example, the computer processing units (CPUs) were removed from the house but the computer screens, keyboards, cords, etc. were left behind. The missing CPU's were never recovered. During the search, several telephone message pads were recovered. These message pads show messages taken from several of the girls who were interviewed and admitted to engaging in sexual massages or other sexual activity with Epstein. The messages contained text such as "I have a female for him" and "has girl for tonight." Some of the messages from the girls were addressed to Epstein and others were addressed to , Epstein's assistant.
