Re: Jeffrey Epstein
Dear
Thank you once again for meeting with us regarding our client, Jeffrey Epstein.
As you know, in advance of last Tuesday's meeting we provided you with the recorded
interviews of various witnesses taken in the state's investigation. At the meeting, we disclosed
that, as part of our own preparation, we made working transcripts of these recordings. You have
asked for copies of the transcripts and we have discussed various ways that that might be
accomplished without compromising Mr. Epstein's position and rights.
To assist in your bringing this investigation to a close, enclosed are highlighted excerpts
of the transcripts. The excerpts support our argument that no federal prosecution should be
brought in this matter. Please note that these transcripts are drafts and subject to further review
and revision. They are provided as a courtesy and in furtherance of our discussions and therefore
are not usable by you for any purposes. By accepting these transcripts you agree never to
contend that any revisions made thereto compare unfavorably to the drafts provided; nor will you
use the drafts otherwise to the detriment of Mr. Epstein.

The excerpts fall generally into the following five subject areas and are therefore so
arranged in the numbered tabs. Note, the witnesses were not all asked the same questions and
therefore, not every witness touched on every subject area we here consider relevant:
Tab I: Mr. Epstein did not ask the women to touch, nor did the women in fact touch, his
genitals;
Tab 2: Mr. Epstein did not ask the women to engage, nor did they in fact engage, in
sexual intercourse with him;
Tab 3: Not only did Mr. Epstein not search out women under the age of 18, but the vast
majority of the women from whom he received massages during the period were 18 or older. To
the extent the witnesses were asked, they admitted being told that Mr. Epstein would not allow
them into his house if they were not 18 and that if they were not 18, they were told (by friends,
not by Mr. Epstein or anyone employed by Mr. Epstein) to lie about their age. Again, to the
extent they were asked in the interviews, they admitted that, if the subject of age did come up in
conversation with Mr. Epstein, those under 18 falsely claimed to him that they were 18;
Tab 4: Mr. Epstein did not coerce, threaten or otherwise pressure the women in an effort
to force them to do anything; to the extent they were asked, they admitted they understood they
could decline to accede to any of Mr. Epstein's requests; and,
Tab 5: Prior to going to Mr. Epstein's home, virtually all of the women were apprised of
what they would be asked to do or, if they claimed they were not, they had no objection to what
occurred, since they either returned to give further massages or they brought others to do so, or
both.
1 Of course, irrespective of what any particular witness said at her interview on any particular point, in
• many instances fanciful claims are contradicted by the witness herself elsewhere in her statement, by
documentary evidence, and/or by other witnesses. Moreover, the witnesses suffer from significant
credibility problems based on universally accepted tests for credibility: bias, motive, prior bad acts, etc.,
some of which we have already previewed in the February 1, 2007, letter.
