Sent from Samsung Mobile ----—- Original message - From: Michael Sanka Date: 12/12/2014 12:48 (GMT-05:00) To: Jean Luc Brunel Subject: Scouting Jean Luc, How are you? After so many years scouting for you and having a great network of agencies all around the world who enjoy to work with us, i wanted to let you know that we are on the way to lose everything we build and we are gonna have big problem now. Agencies, still want to work with us but parents don’t want their daughters to come to us, because when they google your name and the agency name the only things they see is “Sex Trafficking”!!! It’s impossible to sign a new girl and if nothing it’s done i can tell you that in 3 months we we wilt not get any new girls and i don’t see how the agency will work without new faces. All the agencies who know you don’t have any problems with you since they all told me “We know Jean I understand those agencies because it’s hard for them to talk to parents and explain that it’s not the truth when it’s all over the internet. You need to have it stop and have the people write an official letter to say that it’s not the truth… I will keep you posted of course but it’s really bad for us and the scouting. Best regards Michael Sanka 3104021028 EXHIBIT F HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_011964

Have you ever heard any model of MC Square who at the time of being a minor, that means under the age of eighteen, made an accusation that Jean-Luc Burnel acted inappropriate with her? A Never. And that is something that I will not answer. And I said never because even when peoples come and ask me I will always say the truth regarding that. I know Mr. Brunel for the longest — maybe eight years. And I always said what I know. I never saw and I never knew that he did anything. So I know that. And that’s the truth. Never. I never heard anybody accusing Mr. Brunel or complaining about Mi. Brunel. Nothing. That means — that means at any time no model, no minor model came to you and said, you know, “Maritza, look what just happened to me” , that, “something bad happened to me” A Maybe a model came and told me, “Maritza, look what happen to me. I don’t have any money,” or “I don’t have a place to live”. Or, “Look, I didn’t get my ticket”, or whatever. EXHIBIT H-1 HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_011966

Yeah, I said what is the truth. Nobody complain to me. Nobody — your question was very cleai, has any girl came to you and complain about sexually, you know, involved with Mi. Brunel. Right. A And my answer was no. Nobody came to tell me. I never saw. I never knew. His personal life was not my problem. Do you have any actual knowledge, that is to say were you present or did you see with your own eyes, any minor models go with Jean-luc Burnel to 2 Jeffrey Epstein’s home, or any party of his? 3 MR.
