When the girl told Epstein,
"I am 16 years old and just
want to model," he remied.
"Don't worry, 1 won't tell any-
body." court papers say.
Epstein, said by Londe§ Mail ON Sunday to be a close
friend of Engiandk Prince
Andrew, has been indicted in
Paint Beach on charges of so-
liciting underage prostitutes.
That case is pending.
The girl visited Epstein
"several times over the sev-
eral months and engaged in
bizarre and unnatural sex
acts" while she was a minor,
the lawsuit says.
Epstein "repeatedly re-
quested that (the girl) return
with her 14-, 15-, and 16-
yearold girlfriends, stating.
'Come by with your friends
your age next time. Don't
bring Sherrie (a mutual
friend in her 40s). I girls
your age.' "
The young woman, now
23, kept returning to Epstein
because she has "mental
issues," said her lawyer, Wil-
liam 1 Unroch. He refused to
elaborate, but court papers
say she was "disabled as a re-
sult of severe mental disease
and defect."
Epsteink lawyer in New
York, Gerald LefLeitul, said,
'The girl has admitted she
is insane, but she can read a
newspaper and recognize the
word tick'
Lefcourt also said the
statute of limitations has

move to shift Medicaid

some patients to get access
to care, and a planned expan-

state Medicaid agency has
tbund.
The review of the change General, is the first evalua-
tion of how smoothly — or
not — the shift is going in
Florida.
The shift of Medicaid pa-

care plans is being tested in
pilot projects in the Jackson-

He refused to comment on
Epsteins Florida charges.
Meanwhile, Unroch, 51,
also acknowledged that his
client was living with him
and was at the center of a S10
million lawsuit he filed last
year against a neighbor who
said he was having sex with
underage girls. 1'hat case is
pending.
"What she was doing at
22 is irrelevant to what hap-
pened to her when she was
16," Unroch said Wednesday.
He went on the say he hoped
Epstein would agree to `do
right" by his client and re-
solve the case out of court.
