Probably like two, three times a month. 2 Q. And when he would come to the Palm Beach 3 house two or three times a month, how long would he 4 stay typically? 5 6 A. Three days, sometimes two, sometimes four, depends, you know, but it was no regular -- but no more 7 than four days I would say. 8 Q. Okay. And of those two or three trips to 9 Palm Beach, are you telling me that Ghislaine 10 Maxwell would usually come for one of them per 11 month? 12 A. Not usually, sometimes. Not every time but 13 sometimes they, she comes. 14 Q. Okay. But at that point in time in 2005 15 you understood that Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey 16 Epstein were business partners? 17 A.

So, you don't actually think you overheard 2 it. You think you read it? 3 A. Right. It's hard to say right now. I don't 4 remember but probably most, yeah, I think I read in the 5 paper. 6 Q. Did you understand in 2005 that Ghislaine 7 Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein had an intimate 8 relationship with one another? 9 A. No. 10 Q. You only believed them to have a business 11 relationship? 12 A. Right. 13 Q. Okay.

No. Back in 2005 to your knowledge, did 10 Jeffrey Epstein have a girlfriend or female 11 companion that was more than just a business partner 12 to your knowledge? 13 A. No, I didn't know. 14 Q. And for the most part I am going to try to 15 go chronological from 2005 to the present, but for 16 this question for that entire period of time that 17 you have known Jeffrey Epstein, 2005 through today, 18 have you ever known Jeffrey Epstein to have somebody 19 who you would observe to be a female companion or 20 girlfriend? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. Okay. When is the 23 first time that you believe you recognized 24 as a girlfriend to Jeffrey Epstein? 25 A. At one point, I don't remember exactly what (561) 832-7500 PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY, INC.

And she 3 would decide, you know, which way household supposed to 4 work, and if you have any questions or problems, we 5 could contact her. So, since then I figure out that 6 she's the person who, who is close to him. 7 Q. When did he tell you that? 8 A. I don't remember. Maybe a year ago, two years 9 ago. 10 Q. Okay. Well, if we could put it in -- 11 obviously at this point in time Jeffrey Epstein is 12 on house arrest, right? 13 A. (Witness nods head) . 14 Q. I'm sorry. It has to be verbal so she 15 could take it down. 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. And prior to that, he was serving a jail 18 sentence, right? 19 A. Right. 20 Q. Okay. I am only bringing this up to put 21 it in context as to when this -- when you realized 22 or were told information that led you to believe 23 was Jeffrey Epstein's girlfriend. 24 Was it while he was on house arrest, while he was in 25 jail, before that, after that?

I think before, before house arrest, yes. I 2 mean house arrest, jail sentence. 3 Q. Before the jail sentence? 4 A. Right. 5 Q. So, I can tell you the jail sentence at 6 least the plea was June 30th, 2008. So, you believe 7 it was sometime prior to that date when you learned 8 that was the girlfriend of Jeffrey 9 Epstein? 10 A. Correct. 11 Q. Okay. And when I asked you what gave you 12 that belief, you started to tell me that the 13 conversation was actually Jeffrey Epstein telling 14 you that would be more in charge of 15 what happened around the house, the scheduling, and 16 things like that, right? 17 A. Correct. 18 Q. But that's similar to how Ghislaine 19 Maxwell's role was described before, right? And 20 that's not somebody that you considered a 21 girlfriend. So how do you distinguish and 22 Ghislaine's role? 23 MR.

And when you say they are spending 8 time together, do you mean they are spending time 9 upstairs in the bedroom together, things like that 10 that would give you an idea? 11 A. No. I mean traveling together. They always 12 shop together when he was here. And when they go to 13 other places, she was with him too. 14 Q. Okay. Was already 15 somebody that had a relationship with Jeffrey 16 Epstein in February of 2005 when you first started 17 working? 18 A. No. I don't think so. I don't remember her 19 when I do the job.

I am not going to hold to you to an exact date, but just so I can put it in a timeline. 7 A. Could be. i don't remember exactly the one, 8 but at least a few months. 9 Q.

No. 2 Q. Okay. But at that point in time -- well, 3 let me ask you; I don't want to put words in your 4 mouth. The time in April or May or around that area 5 in 2005 when you think is the first time that you 6 saw at the Palm Beach house, what 7 was your understanding of her role in Jeffrey 8 Epstein's life at that time? 9 A. I suppose one of his friends. 10 Q. Just a friend? 11 A. Right. 12 Q. Have you since 2005 through the present 13 seen any interaction between and Mr. Epstein 14 that would give you further reason to believe they 15 are boyfriend and girlfriend or a couple? 16 A. Yeah. I saw him walking with her, you know, 17 holding her hand. I mean her hands, so I assume that 18 there is more than friendship between them. 19 Q. Okay. And when you came in 2005, did you 20 live at the house in Palm Beach? 21 A. Yes. There is a small house attached to the 22 main house. They call it staff house where I live. 23 Q. Okay.

Well, the civil aspect of 5 these cases has been going on for almost a year and 6 a half, almost two years. And prior to that you're 7 aware that there was a criminal investigation into 8 the same activity, right? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. And through this discovery process, 11 information and belief leads us to an understanding 12 that these young females were coming to the house in 13 Palm Beach every day that Jeffrey Epstein was 14 staying at the house; is that fair to say? 15 MR.
