8 Q. So, you came down in February 2005 and

1 A. I don't know what kind of business but she was
2 the one who organized I would say employment with this
3 organization. So, whatever I need, if I have some kind
4 of problem, I contact her. She was the one who decided
5 what I have to answer my problems with, what I was
6 supposed to do.
7 Q. How many times did you have problems where
8 you had to go through her?
9 A. Well, not big problems. Just a question of
10 what certain, how to do certain things. For example,
11 what kind of flowers I have to buy, what kind of things
12 he likes, what time I supposed to serve him coffee in
13 the mornings, sort of organizing things.
14 Q. Those are things that you wouldn't ask
15 Jeffrey Epstein directly?
16 A. No, no. He doesn't like those things to ask
17 him directly. He would like to prefer either through
18 his assistant or like I say, Ghislaine Maxwell.
19 Q. Is that still the same today?
20 A. Yes, still the same. Unless, something happen
21 that I need to, nobody is around and I need to urgently
22 contact him, I go to him directly.
23 Q. So, for the most part if you have a
24 question or at least -- let's go back to 2005, you
25 had a question about what needed to be done in the

1 house, day-to-day stuff, you would ask Ghislaine
2 Maxwell?
3 A. Right.
4 Q. And would she normally, back in 2005, be
5 at the house in Palm Beach for you to ask her or
6 would you have to call her in New York?
7 A. To the phone up in New York. She was visiting
8 the house but most of the time I spoke with her on the
9 phone.
10 Q. Okay. Let's talk specifically about that
11 year in 2005. How often would Ghislaine Maxwell be
12 at the Palm Beach house when Jeffrey Epstein was at
13 the Palm Beach house?
14 A. I would say about once a month since I started
15 work.
16 Q. All right. Well, it was a bad question
17 because I understand that Mr. Epstein has several
18 homes, right?
19 A. Right.
20 Q. And he is sometimes in New Mexico or New
21 York or Florida or the Island or somewhere, right?
22 A. Right.
23 Q. So, I guess the first question is in 2005,
24 how often was Jeffrey Epstein at the Palm Beach
25 house on a weekly basis?

1 A. 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 A. Three days, sometimes two, sometimes four,
6 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. Right.
18 Q. Did you know at the time what Jeffrey
19 Epstein did for a living?
20 A. Yes. He was one, I overheard invest money
21 with other people.
22 Q. Okay. Who told you that or who did you
23 overhear?
24 A. I think I read in the paper or something.

1 Q. 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. And when Ghislaine Maxwell would
14 come to Florida, what did you or what did you
15 observe her and Mr. Epstein do back in 2005?
16 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
17 THE WITNESS: What would they do? I mean
18 what?
19 BY MR. EDWARDS:
20 Q. What was a typical day for Jeffrey Epstein
21 and Ghislaine Maxwell when she was in town at the
22 same time he was in town.
23 A. I would say that they have breakfast in the
24 morning. They spend time reading, talking on the phone,
25 meeting people, go to the movies sometimes. They did

2 say.
3 BY MR. EDWARDS:
4 Q. Did you know at that time what Ghislaine
5 Maxwell did for a living?
6 A. No.
7 Q. Do you know today even what she did?
8 A. No.
9 Q. 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?

1 year was it, he told us that will take some part
2 of the organization, organizing, scheduling. 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?

1 A. 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. GOLDBERGER: Form.
24 THE WITNESS: I noticed that they, they
25 spent some times together, more time together

1 and they travel together very often.
2 BY MR. EDWARDS:
3 Q. you're talking about?
4 A. Right. And , and she was visiting very
5 often so I assume, you know, that there is some kind of
6 relationship between them.
7 Q. Okay. 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 don't remember her.
20 Q. So, you think -- I am sorry?
21 A. I don't remember the, 2005 when I started job,
22 I don't remember her being around at least a few months.
23 Q. Okay.
24 A. So, I recognize her and I met her probably
25 after a few months working for him.

1 Q. So, you think that the first time that you
2 saw , if you started working in
3 February of 2005, may have been April or May 2005?
4 A. Could be.
5 Q. I am not going to hold to you to an exact
6 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.

12 was.

15 can't recall.
16 Q. And do you know how Jeffrey Epstein met
17
18 A. No, I don't.
19 Q. The time when you met did
20 it appear to you that Jeffrey Epstein was meeting
21 her at the same time or he already knew her?
22 A. I assume he knew her. She was here in the
23 house in Palm Beach. I assumed he knew her.
24 Q. Okay. It didn't seem like a brand new
25 guest?

1 A. 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. And is that the place where you
24 have resided since you began working in February
25 2005 through the present?

7 Do you understand -- you understand why
8 you're here today and having your deposition taken,

2 MR. EDWARDS: There are times during the

18 house? Was it the first day, is it the second day,
19 is it a month, is it --

21 THE WITNESS: It's -- I don't remember,
22 you know, exactly what was the first, second or
23 third day during my, you know, working hours.

25 it, but, yes, I notice that those young women

1 were coming for massage. And most of the time
2 I opened the door for them and let them in.
3 BY MR. EDWARDS:
4 Q. All right. 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. GOLDBERGER: Form.
16 THE WITNESS: I wouldn't say every day.
17 They come very often but not every day. Maybe
18 like if he was staying four days, probably like
19 two, maybe three days.
20 BY MR. EDWARDS:
21 Q. Okay. So, sometimes you remember there
22 being days where these young females I am describing
23 did not come to the house or at least you didn't see
24 them?

4 these girls coming over for massages?

13 you are saying, are you saying that the conversation
14 or the words that were spoken to you would be, did
15 she call you Janusz?

16 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
17 THE WITNESS: You just mentioned a few of
18 them.

22 don't remember.
23 Q. III. sound familiar?
24 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.

1 right now but I don't recall right now her
2 name.
3 BY MR. EDWARDS:
4 Q. I don't expect you to remember all of the
5 names. To me that's not important for today's
6 purposes. Is it fair to say that oftentimes there
7 would be a massage in the morning by one of these
8 females and a massage in the afternoon the same day?
9 A. Yes.
10 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
11 BY MR. EDWARDS:
12 Q. In fact, you know, you're not the first
13 witness who has testified as to what goes on in the
14 house. So is it, is my understanding correct that
15 there was a specific appointment set and a time set
16 for these girls to come over and that
17 would keep that appointment book?
18 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
19 THE WITNESS: I don't know if she kept
20 appointment, but most, I mean, almost -- yeah,
21 all the time I, I knew who is coming so --
22 BY MR. EDWARDS:
23 Q. And you said you knew the time?
24 A. Yes. Maybe it was like 50 minutes delay or
25 they show up late, but I knew because I have to let them

1 in. So, it has to be, you know, some kind of
2 announcement that they are here.
3 Q. Was it always telling you the name
4 of the person and the time that that person would be
5 coming over for a massage?
6 A. Yes, most of the time
7 Q. Okay.
8 A. I think there was another name,
9 Q.
10 A. She also contact me when she has been hired.
11 Q. When you say contacted you, that implies
12 that you're not in the same house when she's telling
13 you what time this person is coming over?
14 A. Yeah. I mean, if I have nothing to do in the
15 main house, I have an office in the staff house where I
16 sit over there and I do some paperwork. So, either they
17 call me on the phone or come in and tell me
18 face-to-face.
19 Q. So, when and would call, when
20 you're telling me that or would call
21 you and tell you who was coming over and what time
22 that person was set to come over, you're, you're
23 saying that that call would be made from the main
24 house to the staff house or it would either be made
25 in person depending on whatever it was?

1 A. Correct.
2 Q. But everybody is at the property at Palm
3 Beach. That's what we're talking about?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. And the first time that you noticed one of
6 these young females coming over to provide what
7 told you was a massage, do you remember
8 who it was the first person you saw?
9 A. No, I don't remember.
10 Q. All right. Did you get to know any of
11 these --
12 A. No.
13 Q. -- females? Did you have much personal
14 interaction with them?
15 A. No. Just good morning, hello and
16 Q. Fair to say that no matter who it was,
17 whether it was III. or or any of the other
18 ones, their routine from the time that they come to
19 the door and knock on the door until the time that
20 they leave was relatively the same?
21 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.

1 instance, somebody that you remember coming to the
2 door, can you tell me in your own words what you
3 observed from the time she arrived at the house
4 until the time that she left.
5 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
6 MR. EDWARDS: And just so the record is
7 clear, let's -- you've already been told by
8 , III. is coming this time and then
9 she arrives at the door. So tell me what
10 happens from there.
11 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
12 THE WITNESS: Yeah. I hear the doorbell.
13 I went out. She introduce herself. I let her
14 into the kitchen. I offer her something to
15 drink and she sit in the kitchen and I left to
16 do some other stuff. And let her, let
17 know that she's there.
18 BY MR. EDWARDS:
19 Q. Okay.
20 A. And sometimes I don't even, you know, notice
21 when they are leaving because, you know, the girls open
22 the door and just left.
23 Q. So, you were usually the person to greet
24 them but not always the person to walk them out?
25 A. Right.

1 Q. All right. So, your role was to greet
2 them at the door, offer them something to eat or
3 drink, and then turn them over to for lack of
4 a better --
5 A. Right.
6 Q. And then, you know, at some point in time,
7 you had a chance to observe what did with one
8 or more of these girls in terms of where she took
9 them for the message and things like that, right?
10 A. Right.
11 Q. So, tell me what would then do?
12 Let's use III. for instance. She comes in. You
13 offer her something to eat or drink. And then you
14 say, all right , III. is here. What happens
15 after that?
16 A. She took her to, to the bedroom upstairs and
17 that's it.
18 Q. Okay. And did you know at the time that
19 Jeffrey Epstein was in the bedroom upstairs?
20 A. I didn't know. I assumed but I never know so
21 it's --
22 Q. You just knew that he wasn't somewhere
23 downstairs with you?
24 A. Exactly.

2 A. Right.
3 Q. Did you know the massage table was
4 upstairs?
5 A. I didn't see that at the time of them, but
6 going a couple of times I folded massage table and put
7 in there in the closet.
8 Q. You have been up to Mr. Epstein's bedroom?
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. I've been in the house recently but I
11 don't know if the house looks today like it looked
12 back in 2005. In fact, I'm led to believe that it's
13 changed somewhat?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. Before we continue on with the typical
16 massage experience with the young females and
17 Mr. Epstein, I want you to tell me since 2005, since
18 you began working there, how, what changes have been
19 made to the interior of the house?
20 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
21 THE WITNESS: There is a new addition to
22 the kitchen. It's like a breakfast table. The
23 living room is different. It's bigger. They
24 knocked down a few walls over there.

2 A. Correct.
3 Q. And have you known Mr. Epstein to receive
4 a massage since the search warrant was executed on
5 his house?
6 A. No, I don't remember.
7 Q. You don't remember or it hasn't happened?
8 A. I don't remember. Well, he, he didn't visit
9 the house, I guess, after search warrant.
10 Q. Okay. After the search warrant was
11 executed, where did he go, Mr. Epstein?
12 A. I think he spent time in New York.
13 Q. Okay.
14 A. I don't remember visiting him. Maybe once.
15 Q. Okay. So, then is it also your testimony
16 that not only was the visiting from the young
17 females ended at the point in time of the search
18 warrant, but Mr. Epstein, after the search warrant
19 was executed, he didn't stay at the house until he
20 was out of his office jail sentence and on house
21 arrest?

2 was in living room and one was in small office next to

4 Q. All right. In your time at the house
5 prior to that, is it fair to say those computers had

3 were privy to? You weren't, you weren't in the loop
4 of the sharing of information in the house in terms
5 of the computers being connected through any server?
6 A. I don't really know what, how, how to answer
7 your question because Citrix is for the whole

9 Q. All right. You used the term?
10 A. So, even my computer is connected to Citrix.

14 computer.

5 A. I think it was either a couple or three days.

3 and either young girls at the same time at the
4 house. I don't recall. I don't remember.
5 BY MR. EDWARDS:
6 Q. Okay. Fair enough. I think I presupposed
7 something that may not have been accurate. So, to
8 your recollection the two to four days that you
9 remember Mr. Dershowitz being at the house, you
10 can't say with any degree of certainty that these
11 young females were also at the house?
12 A. Yeah. Right.
13 Q. Okay. Do you remember there ever being an
14 occasion where there was some other person, aside
15 from the people that we all know regularly are at
16 Mr. Epstein's house that we have named a few times,
17 do you ever remember any other people being inside
18 the house when these young females or a young female
19 would be at the house to give Mr. Epstein a massage?
20 A. No.
21 Q. Okay. So, to the best of your
22 recollection any time that these young females were
23 at the house, it was a time when Mr. Epstein and
24 other members of the organization, as you referred
25 to it, were in the house only?

11 A. Anybody, yes.
12 Q. Yeah. But you know, I realize a lot of
13 people probably call Mr. Epstein.
14 A. Right.
15 Q. For the purposes of this case, I am not
16 all that interested in all the messages he gets. I
17 really want to go focus on the message he gets from
18 someone like Or III . Or or somebody that
19 you recognize as being one of these young females

4 BY MR. EDWARDS:
5 Q. Okay. You don't remember any messages
6 like that?
7 A. No.
8 Q. Do you remember ever there being a
9 circumstance where somebody called and said I have
10 girls for him or I have a friend that would like to
11 come over and see him?
12 A. No.
13 Q. All right. If you had taken down any of
14 those messages, that may have been alarming to you
15 or told you that, hey, there is something going on
16 here that may not necessarily be perfectly legal?
17 A. I don't know how, you know, how to --
18 Q. That's just not something you ever saw,
19 right?

2 Q. You don't remember the message pads being
3 removed from the property prior to the police
4 arriving to execute the search warrant?

20 girls, how he was getting them to his house, who
21 they were working for, things of that nature, or is

2 thought that it was only massages going on, so it
3 wasn't really alarming you no matter what?

1 THE WITNESS: I mean, it's not, I try to
2 not be around them. You know, it's not -- my
3 job is to make sure that everything is what
4 they ask for. I don't want to be around them
5 and listen when they are talking and looking at

8 BY MR. EDWARDS:
9 Q. And when I ask questions about your
10 knowledge based on your observations, I mean
11 obviously you've seen me talking with your attorney,
12 Jack Goldberger, today and you can tell that we've
13 talked at some point in time in the past, right;
14 that today isn't the first time we've ever talked to
15 one another.
16 And that's kind of what I am asking you
17 about this person III. Just based on your
18 observations and common sense, could you tell that
19 this person, III, knew Jean Luc Brunel before last
20 week?
21 A. I don't think so.
22 Q. Okay. How old would you estimate or
23 approximate this person III to be assuming you don't
24 know her age?
25 A. I think in her 30's or late 20's.

5 Jean Luc Brunel, would -- you said he came here last

1 A. Right.
2 Q. How times would you estimate -- I know you
3 told us two times in 2010. Let me ask it this way:
4 In 2010 were there only those two occasions where
5 Mr. Brunel was staying at Mr. Epstein's house in
6 Palm Beach?
7 A. Yes, as far as I remember.
8 Q. Okay. How many occasions, in addition to
9 those two, would you estimate that Mr. Brunel has
10 stayed at the Palm Beach house since Mr. Epstein has
11 been out on house arrest and also staying at that
12 house?
13 A. It's hard to tell. I would say maybe three
14 times.
15 Q. Three times in addition to the two times
16 this year, five times total?
17 A. No, three times total.
18 Q. Okay. So, one time this month, one time
19 last month, and then for the period of time from --
20 I don't remember when he was on house arrest, maybe
21 July. So from July to December you think that there
22 was only one other occasion when Mr. Brunel was at
23 the house?
24 A. You know, it's hard to remember but I think
25 so. He was maybe totally three times for the last few

1 Q. All right. And you told me that while he
2 was in jail nobody came to the house. So, let's
3 back up before that from the search warrant to him
4 going to jail, he was not at the house, Jeffrey
5 Epstein was not at the house, right?
6 A. Right.
7 Q. So, we can back this time table up to you
8 beginning to work in February of 2005 through search
9 warrant executed on October 20th, 2005, which gives
10 us ten or so months there.
11 In those ten months, how many times has

13 A. I don't know. Maybe twice, once. He wasn't
14 very often visiting him.
15 Q. You think he what?
16 A. He wasn't very often visiting him.
17 Q. Okay. And on those occasions was it
18 similar in that he would stay three or four days or
19 would he stay longer?
20 A. No, three or four days no longer.
21 Q. And even back then in 2005, did you know
22 where he was coming from?
23 A. No.
24 Q. And on those occasions prior to the search
25 warrant being executed, were females in the house

2 A. Yeah. I think that was -- was there. I
3 think some other guests too, but I don't remember
4 Q. What about the --
5 A. -- who was there and how long they were
6 staying.
7 Q. How about the young females that were
8 providing massages, did any of them ever provide a
9 massage to Mr. Brunel that you remember?
10 A. No, I don't remember.
11 Q. Okay. Is that something that you're
12 saying never happened or you just don't remember
13 whether it happened or it didn't?
14 A. I just don't recall, you know, having those
15 massage girls coming and having him being in the house.
16 Q. Okay. Well, we have gone, kind of gone
17 through the frequency with which these girls came.
18 And at least in terms of Mr. Epstein being at the
19 house, if he was there for four days then they would
20 come three days or relatively that's the ratio we've
21 talked about.
22 So, if Mr. Brunel was there for a period
23 of four days straight, you know, just given
24 Mr. Epstein's massage schedule, so to speak, does
25 that help to remind you or refresh your recollection
