21 A. Yes, in the high school theatre there was
22 some kind of performance.
23 Q. Was it like a theatre production?
24 A. Yeah, something like that. I didn't go
25 inside so I didn't know what was going on inside.
Page 101
1 Q. Now, you said you never went inside the
2 theatre?
3 A. No, sir.
4 Q. Okay. How did you get to the flower

16 MR. CRITTON: Form.
17 THE WITNESS: I don't know if she was
18 doing massages but she was at the house.
19 BY MR. MERMELSTEIN:
20 Q. What would she have been there for?
21 A. To visit him.
22 Q. This was a high school girl who was
23 coming to visit Mr. Epstein at the house?
24 A. She came to the house, I open the door
25 and I left, you know.
Page 99
1 Q. Why do you say it was for graduation?
2 A. Because everybody was the graduation
3 outside, there were parents, there were a lot of
4 people at the school.
5 Q. Okay. A lot of high schools have theatre
6 production companies and they put on plays.
7 Correct?
8 MR. CRITTON: Form.
9 THE WITNESS: It was towards the end of
10 the year. Well, I think I overheard that
11 there was a graduation performance of some
12 kind.
13 BY MR. MERMELSTEIN:
14 Q. But you didn't go in so you don't know?
15 A. No, sir.
16 Q. But this was a high school student you

4 Q. So you brought her to the kitchen just
5 like you did for the girls who gave him massages.
6 Correct?
7 A. Yes, sir.
8 Q. Did you ever pay her?
9 A. I don't remember, sir, but probably I
10 did.
11 MR. CRITTON: Form, move to strike,
12 speculation.
13 BY MR. MERMELSTEIN:
14 Q. Why do you say you probably did?
15 A. Because I was the only one paying --
16 well, not the only one but, you know, but chances
17 are I paid her but I don't remember that
18 particular instance that I gave her money.
19 Q. Is it fair to say th
Page 166
1 written down anywhere?
2 A. No.
3 Q. It's my understanding that C. and T.
4 either came to his house alone to visit with Mr.
5 Epstein or brought other girls in their age group
6 to Mr. Epstein.
7 Were you familiar with that type of
8 recruitment process of girls bringing other girls?
9 MR. CRITTON: Form.
10 THE WITNESS: Yes.
11 BY MR. [REDACTED]
12 Q. Can you tell me more about what you know
13 about girls bringing other girls that are
14 relatively the same age to come to Jeffrey
15 Epstein's house and to use your words, have a good
16 time?
17 MR. CRITTON: Form.
18 THE WITNESS: It's hard to know who they
19 knew. But I think that was -- they feel
20 better themselves when they're in a group
21 than going by themselves, but I don't know
22 somebody recruiting.
23 BY MR. [REDACTED]
24 Q. Okay. And you've talked about, at least
25 referred to yourself I believe to the police and
|Page 168
1 for now we'll call it a massage -- as well as
2 anybody who brought that person over to the house,
3 they would both get paid cash. Are you familiar
4 with that?
5 MR. CRITTON: Form.
6 THE WITNESS: No.
7 BY MR. [REDACTED]
8 Q. If C. brought another girl over to the
9 house and C. stayed downstairs but this other girl
10 went upstairs with Mr. Epstein, which one would
11 you pay?
12 A. I don't know because I was told who to
13 pay.
14 Q. And [REDACTED] always told you?
15 A. Sarah told me pay so and so.
16 Q. So if we were going to ask anybody else
17 about the exact method in terms of who would get
18 paid and for what, who would the people be? I
19 mean, other than Mr. Epstein who else could we ask
20 these questions?
21 A. Sarah.
22 Q. [REDACTED]
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. She would know this?
25 A. Yes.

1 as well today as a human ATM machine. Right?
2 MR. CRITTON: Form.
3 THE WITNESS: Something like that. I was
4 supposed to carry cash at all times.
5 BY MR. [REDACTED]
6 Q. One of the primary reasons why you
7 carried cash was to pay the girls in this age
8 group of C. and T. for whatever happened at the
9 house. Right?
10 MR. CRITTON: Form.
11 THE WITNESS: Yes.
12 BY MR. [REDACTED]
13 Q. That's a fair statement. Right?
14 MR. CRITTON: Form.
15 THE WITNESS: Yes.
16 BY MR. [REDACTED]
17 Q. Okay. And when C., let's use her for
18 example, would bring somebody else to the house,
19 did you pay C. as well as whomever she brought to
20 the house, pay them both?
21 A. No, I pay only one person.
22 Q. Okay. My understanding, and tell me if
23 this is wrong or you can corroborate this, is that
24 Mr. Epstein would pay the girl that was actually
25 performing whatever was happening in the room --
|Page 169
1 Q. What about Ghislaine Maxwell?
2 MR. CRITTON: Form.
3 THE WITNESS: You're talking about the
4 boss. I don't know.
5 BY MR. [REDACTED]
6 Q. To your knowledge was Ghislaine Maxwell
7 aware of these girls that are in the age group of
8 C. and T. coming to Jeffrey Epstein's house to
9 have a good time?
10 MR. CRITTON: Form.
11 THE WITNESS: I have to say something.
12 Mrs. Maxwell called me and told me not to
13 ever discuss or contact her again in a
14 threaten way.
15 BY MR. [REDACTED]
16 Q. When was this?
17 A. Right after I left because I call one of
18 the friends for a job and she told me this, but,
19 you know, I feel intimidated and so I want to keep
20 her out.
21 Q. What exactly did she say? First of all,
22 was this a telephone call?
23 A. Yes, she was in New York.
24 Q. She called you on your cell phone?
25 A. Yes.
| 43 (Pages 166 to 169) Kress Court Reporting, Inc. 305-866-7688\ 7115 Rue Notre Dame, Miami Beach, FL 33141 1 Q. Is this the cell phone that was issued to\ 2 you by Mr. Epstein?\ 3 A. No, it was my personal phone. I was\ 4 already --\ 5 Q. Gone?\ 6 A. Yeah, this is three, four months down the\ 7 road.\ 8 Q. So if you left in --\ 9 A. February, March -- it was May or June.\ 10 Q. Of 2005?\ 11 A. Yes.\ 12 Q. And you got a call from Ghislaine Maxwell\ 13 out of the blue?\ 14 A. Yes.\ 15 Q. And do you know what prompted that\ 16 telephone call?\ 17 A. Because I contact somebody in New York to\ 18 get a job.\ 19 Q. Who was that person?\ 20 A. I contact Jean-Luc and I contact Eva, the\ 21 Swedish girl, she used to be very good friends\ 22 with Mr. Epstein because she asked me she need\ 23 somebody in New York.\ 24 Q. What does Eva do?\ 25 A. Eva was a model many years ago and he 1 married -- Eva is the mother of the girl who was\ 2 on the wall.\ 3 Q. Who is on the wall of Mr. Epstein's\ 4 house?\ 5 A. Yeah.\ 6 Q. All right. There is a younger girl model\ 7 that's on the wall of Mr. Epstein's house and this\ 8 lady Eva is her mother?\ 9 A. Yes.\ 10 Q. And at some point in time you called her\ 11 in New York to get a job?\ 12 A. That's right.\ 13 Q. And you also called Jean-Luc Bernell?\ 14 That's his name. Right?\ 15 A. Jean-Luc, yeah, I don't remember his last\ 16 name.\ 17 Q. Does that sound familiar to you, Jean-Luc\ 18 Bernell?\ 19 A. Yeah.\ 20 Q. What did Eva and/or Jean-Luc say about\ 21 employing you?\ 22 A. No, they said they're going to find out\ 23 and obviously the first thing they did was talk to\ 24 Mrs. Maxwell.\ 25 Q. She made a telephone call to you and what 1 precisely did she say?\ 2 A. She said I forbid you that you're going\ 3 to be -- that I will be sorry if I contact any of\ 4 her friends again.\ 5 Q. Okay. Other than you will be sorry if\ 6 you contact any of my friends again did she say\ 7 anything else about what you know about Mr.\ 8 Epstein and/or what goes on at his house?\ 9 A. She said something like don't open your\ 10 mouth or something like that. But you have to\ 11 understand, I'm a civil humble, I came as an\ 12 immigrant to service people, and right now you\ 13 feel a little -- I'm 55 and I'm afraid. First of\ 14 all, I don't have a job, but I'm glad this is on\ 15 tape because I don't want nothing to happen to me.\ 16 This is the way they treat you, better do this and\ 17 you shut up and don't talk to nobody and --\ 18 Q. When you say this is the way they treat,\ 19 who specifically are you talking about when you\ 20 say the word they?\ 21 A. Maxwell.\ 22 Q. And usually when you say the word they,\ 23 you're not only talking about one person --\ 24 A. Wealthy people.\ 25 Q. Are you also putting Jeffrey Epstein in 1 that category?\ 2 MR. CRITTON: Form.\ 3 THE WITNESS: I didn't talk to him\ 4 directly most of the time.\ 5 BY MR. [REDACTED]\ 6 Q. What's the reason why if you were his\ 7 head of security that you wouldn't have more\ 8 direct contact with him? Why is that?\ 9 MR. CRITTON: Form.\ 10 THE WITNESS: He wanted that way, you\ 11 know, so, yeah, I have to talk to Sarah,\ 12 Sarah is not available talk to Lesley in New\ 13 York. He didn't want to be disturbed.\ 14 BY MR. [REDACTED]\ 15 Q. Even while you were in the same house\ 16 with him he still had other people you could talk\ 17 to directly but he was not one of them?\ 18 A. Yeah.\ 19 Q. When you were fired you were not fired\ 20 directly by him?\ 21 A. No.\ 22 Q. It was through somebody else?\ 23 A. Ms. Maxwell.\ 24 Q. Okay. But it was for upsetting him for\ 25 taking the wrong car? 44 (Pages 170 to 173) Kress Court Reporting, Inc. 305-866-7688\ 7115 Rue Notre Dame, Miami Beach, FL 33141 |Page 174
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. Okay. Ever since this communication that
3 Ms. Maxwell made to you where she called you
4 sometime in May or June of 2005, and have you felt
5 threatened?
6 A. Yes.
7 MR. CRITTON: Form.
8 BY MR. [REDACTED]
9 Q. Have you felt reluctant to come forward
10 and give truthful, honest, and full disclosure of
11 all information that you know about this case?
12 MR. CRITTON: Form.
13 THE WITNESS: I said this off the record
14 but I will say it on the record, being in
15 the Epstein case for me resulted in two
16 years I have -- I won't bring the names but
17 I was in the third interview to get hired as
18 a household manager in Palm Beach and they
19 told me you are the Jeffrey Epstein guy.
20 Not in the sense I did something wrong
21 because of the scandal, so they shun the job
22 away from me. And so I was afraid that --
23 this is very powerful people and one phone
24 call and you finish, so I'm the little guy.
25 Even I'm wearing a tie I'm a -- I'm talking
|Page 176
1 this. Because I went through -- the first
2 time I went to the deposition I was in Palm
3 Beach and I did my duty, I mean, I tell what
4 I know, but now I know there is more
5 digging, all I want is this to be to get on
6 with my normal life and stuff.
7 BY MR. [REDACTED]
8 Q. So when you come here today to testify,
9 your main objective is to get back to your normal
10 life and get out of the spotlight of this case.
11 Yes?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. And in doing so have you held back some
14 of the details that you know about that happened
15 in this case to remove yourself from the
16 spotlight?
17 MR. CRITTON: Form.
18 THE WITNESS: No, sir.
19 BY MR. [REDACTED]
20 Q. Okay. Have you ever talked to Ghislaine
21 Maxwell after that telephone call where she called
22 you and you felt threatened?
23 A. No.
24 Q. Okay. So going back to where we started
25 here was, does Ghislaine Maxwell have knowledge of
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |Page 175
1 from my heart. This is the way it is.
2 BY MR. [REDACTED]
3 Q. I feel for you, I'm sorry that you have
4 to be in this position.
5 MR. CRITTON: Move to strike this.
6 BY MR. [REDACTED]
7 Q. Well, when you applied for these jobs and
8 they turned you down and gave you the reason that
9 you're the person involved in the Jeffrey Epstein
10 scandal, was it that they are associated or
11 friends with Jeffrey Epstein or is it that you
12 have information and you have this confidentiality
13 but you're revealing some certain information that
14 Mr. Epstein would not like?
15 MR. CRITTON: Form.
16 THE WITNESS: Both.
|Page 177
1 the girls that would come over to Jeffrey
2 Epstein's house that are in roughly the same age
3 group as C. and T. and to have a good time as you
4 put it?
5 MR. CRITTON: Form.
6 THE WITNESS: Yes.
7 BY MR. [REDACTED]
8 Q. And what was her involvement and/or
9 knowledge about that?
10 MR. CRITTON: Form.
11 THE WITNESS: She knew what was going on.
12 BY MR. [REDACTED]
13 Q. You referred to her at one point in time
14 as Jeffrey Epstein's companion. But then later on
15 you said that if she flew she flew on a different
16 airplane and oftentimes or sometimes she slept in
17 a different bed from Mr. Epstein. Did that seem
18 unusual to you?
19 MR. CRITTON: Form.
20 THE WITNESS: It was odd but, I mean, and
21 again, everything is odd in Palm Beach.
22 BY MR. [REDACTED]
23 Q. Okay, I don't mean to laugh.
24 A. Mr. Epstein fly to Jet Aviation, she fly
25 to Galaxy Aviation, but they never flew the same

3 A. Not at this particular moment but it's
4 something I have to be worry about, yes.
5 Q. Are you personally afraid of criminal
6 prosecution?
7 A. No.
8 Q. Do you believe that you did anything
9 illegal?
10 A. Illegal, no.
11 MR. LANGINO: I have no further
12 questions. Thank you.
13 MR. CRITTON: We're going to break in
14 about 15 minutes. Do you want to start and
15 go for 15 minutes or do you want to -- it's
16 up to you.
