- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
- 0:02Speaker 1: Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're going to pick up
- 0:06Speaker 1: where we left off with a Cordy Wilde deposition. Question.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Do you ever remember telling the FBI agent that you
- 0:14Speaker 1: started stripping at age 16? Answer. No, I don't remember that. Question. Okay.
- 0:20Speaker 1: Do you know what the non-prosecution agreement is? Do you
- 0:23Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about when I talk about that? Answer. Yes. Question. Okay.
- 0:28Speaker 1: What does that mean to you? Answer. Yes. It's where
- 0:31Speaker 1: it's not. I can't really explain it into words. Question.
- 0:36Speaker 1: Do your best to tell me what it means to you. Answer.
- 0:38Speaker 1: I can't even really explain. Question. Okay. Answer. What is it? Question. Well,
- 0:43Speaker 1: whatever it is, is it your testimony that you did
- 0:46Speaker 1: not know a non-prosecution agreement existed? Answer. Right. Question. You
- 0:50Speaker 1: never knew about that? Answer. No. Question. Is that correct? Answer. Right. Question. Okay,
- 0:57Speaker 1: before the non-prosecution agreement was signed, no one told you
- 0:59Speaker 1: about that? Answer, no. Somebody came to my work. The
- 1:03Speaker 1: FBI agents came to my work and told me that
- 1:06Speaker 1: they were considering settling. You know, that Jeffrey was going
- 1:09Speaker 1: to plead out to charges and everything else. I didn't
- 1:13Speaker 1: understand that he was pleading out to the state. I
- 1:15Speaker 1: thought that there was a federal case that he was
- 1:18Speaker 1: still going to be charged for. That's how under it. Question,
- 1:22Speaker 1: where were you working when they came to see you? Answer,
- 1:25Speaker 1: Sally's Beauty Supply. Question, okay, so FBI agents came to
- 1:29Speaker 1: Sally's Beauty Supply? Answer, yes. Question, was it a female agent? Answer, yes. Question, Kirkendall.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Does that ring any bells? Answer, I think it was Nesbitt. Question,
- 1:41Speaker 1: Nesbitt Kirkendall? Answer, yeah. Question, okay, and your recollection is
- 1:46Speaker 1: that she came to you at this beauty salon store? Answer, correct. Question,
- 1:51Speaker 1: and what is it that you remember her telling you? Answer,
- 1:55Speaker 1: she told me that it was good news. That they
- 1:58Speaker 1: were considering Jeffrey Epstein signing an agreement to plead guilty
- 2:02Speaker 1: for whatever charges I can't remember she said. But that
- 2:05Speaker 1: was going. It wasn't something that was going to happen
- 2:07Speaker 1: right away. But it was something that had been brought
- 2:11Speaker 1: up she wanted to come and tell me about. Question, okay.
- 2:14Speaker 1: And it was your understanding that Mr. Epstein was still
- 2:16Speaker 1: going to be prosecuted for a federal offense? Answer, right.
- 2:20Speaker 1: Because the federal, because they were involved. And when they
- 2:23Speaker 1: were investigating me, asking questions, they were telling me how,
- 2:26Speaker 1: you know, he's done this internationally to all these women.
- 2:30Speaker 1: I didn't think that it was just Palm Beach County.
- 2:32Speaker 1: You know, Palm Beach County was just going to charge him.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I thought he was being charged. You know what I mean? Federally.
- 2:38Speaker 1: So I was confused. It was a misunderstanding of exactly
- 2:42Speaker 1: of what and who was charging him. I didn't understand
- 2:45Speaker 1: that question. So it was a misunderstanding answer. I mean,
- 2:49Speaker 1: the feds came to my work. and told me that
- 2:52Speaker 1: he was being charged. It was possibility that he would
- 2:55Speaker 1: be charged by the state. I didn't think that anything
- 2:58Speaker 1: to do with their federal case that they had on him. Question,
- 3:02Speaker 1: was that before or after you met with agent Nesbitt
- 3:04Speaker 1: Kirkendall at a Publix grocery store in Palm Beach Gardens? Answer,
- 3:09Speaker 1: that was the same day. I worked at Sally's Beauty
- 3:12Speaker 1: Supply and I walked out during my break. I went
- 3:14Speaker 1: to the Publix to talk to her. Question, I see,
- 3:18Speaker 1: and that was in October of 2007. Answer, yes. Question, okay.
- 3:22Speaker 1: And you deny that Ms. Kirkendall, Agent Kirkendall, told you
- 3:26Speaker 1: that there would never be a federal prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein? Answer,
- 3:30Speaker 1: she said, I don't think she said that to me. Question, okay.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Were you doing drugs at that time? Answer, no. Question,
- 3:38Speaker 1: that was a period of time when you were not
- 3:40Speaker 1: doing drugs? Answer, when I was at work, I was
- 3:43Speaker 1: not on drugs when she told me. Question, all right,
- 3:47Speaker 1: but during that period of time, not the specific time
- 3:49Speaker 1: that you met with the agent, were you one of
- 3:51Speaker 1: the periods where you were doing drugs? Answer, yes. Question, okay. Answer, sure. Question,
- 3:58Speaker 1: and do you have a recollection of the agent Kirkendall
- 4:00Speaker 1: telling you that there would not be a federal prosecution
- 4:03Speaker 1: of Mr. Epstein? Answer, no, I don't remember her saying
- 4:07Speaker 1: that to me. Question, I see. Do you remember having
- 4:09Speaker 1: a discussion with the federal agent as part of Epstein's agreement?
- 4:14Speaker 1: He had made some concessions that would make it easier
- 4:17Speaker 1: for you to collect damages. Scarola. Objection. Leading. Wild. No. Goldberger. Okay,
- 4:24Speaker 1: you don't recall that. Answer. Meeting with who? Question. When
- 4:28Speaker 1: you met with the agents, do you recall whether they
- 4:30Speaker 1: told you that as part of Mr. Epstein's plea agreement?
- 4:33Speaker 1: He had reached an agreement to make concessions that would
- 4:36Speaker 1: make it easier for you to obtain damages. Scarola. Objection. Leading. Wild. No,
- 4:42Speaker 1: I don't remember that. Question. Okay. Answer, I don't remember that. Goldberger, okay.
- 4:48Speaker 1: How many times did you meet with Agent Kirkenbaugh? Answer,
- 4:52Speaker 1: I met with her a couple times. I can't remember
- 4:54Speaker 1: exactly how many times I met with her, but I
- 4:58Speaker 1: met with her probably a handful of times, maybe three
- 5:01Speaker 1: or four times. Question, okay. And did you meet with
- 5:04Speaker 1: any other special agents of the FBI prior to Mr.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Epstein entering his plea? Answer, no. Question, okay. Did you
- 5:11Speaker 1: meet with any U.S. attorney, assistant United States attorneys at
- 5:15Speaker 1: any time during the pendency of Mr. Epstein's case? Answer.
- 5:19Speaker 1: At one point, I met with a lady, Maria. Question. Marie. Correct. Answer. Marie.
- 5:25Speaker 1: But I can't remember if he had already taken the
- 5:27Speaker 1: plea or not. I don't know if when I found
- 5:30Speaker 1: out if he had already pled out. I didn't even
- 5:33Speaker 1: know that it had been so long afterwards. I know
- 5:36Speaker 1: that I met with a group of women at a
- 5:37Speaker 1: table and I know Marie. told me that she was
- 5:40Speaker 1: sorry for, you know, me being a victim of Jeffrey's,
- 5:43Speaker 1: and that if there was anything she could do to
- 5:45Speaker 1: help me, as far as victim services and stuff like that,
- 5:48Speaker 1: she would. And they did. They helped me get the
- 5:52Speaker 1: lady I would go to talk to, Randy Special, like
- 5:56Speaker 1: a counselor. Question, how many times did you see? Scrolla,
- 5:59Speaker 1: excuse me? Goldberger, you can finish the answer. Goldberger, anything
- 6:04Speaker 1: else you want to tell me before the witness? No. Question, Okay,
- 6:08Speaker 1: how many times did you see this Randy? Was her name? Answer, yeah.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I've seen her a bunch of times. I can't remember
- 6:14Speaker 1: how many times. Question, less than 10? Answer, no, more
- 6:18Speaker 1: than 10. Question, more than 10? Answer, yeah. Question, okay,
- 6:23Speaker 1: did you ever answer that question differently? Answer, I can't remember. Scrolla, objection,
- 6:28Speaker 1: improper impeachment. Goldberger, were you told that prior to Mr.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Epstein entering is guilty? Strike that. Were you told that
- 6:35Speaker 1: any time? that Mr. Epstein, as part of his plea agreement,
- 6:38Speaker 1: would be required to register as a sex offender for life? Scrolla,
- 6:43Speaker 1: pardon me, I'm going to object to that question to
- 6:45Speaker 1: the extent that it may call for attorney-client privilege communication. Goldberger,
- 6:50Speaker 1: were you told by anyone from the FBI or the U.S.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Attorney's Office, as part of Mr. Epstein's plea agreement, he
- 6:56Speaker 1: was going to be required to register as a sex
- 6:59Speaker 1: offender for life? Answer, I was never told. I was
- 7:03Speaker 1: kept in the dark when he pled out. I didn't
- 7:05Speaker 1: know that my case had anything to do with what
- 7:08Speaker 1: he was pleading out to, so I was never told
- 7:10Speaker 1: anything to him about him pleading out and what was
- 7:13Speaker 1: going on. I didn't know anything about it. Question, do
- 7:17Speaker 1: you recall meeting with Special Agent Nesbitt, Kirkendall, and Special
- 7:20Speaker 1: Agent Jason Richards on October 26, 2007, and being told
- 7:25Speaker 1: that Mr. Epstein was going to be required to register
- 7:28Speaker 1: as a sex offender for life? Scrolla, Objection. Courtney Wilde.
- 7:34Speaker 1: And that was at Publix? Goldberger, pardon? Answer. That was
- 7:38Speaker 1: at Publix that we met because that was the only
- 7:41Speaker 1: time they ever came to me and told me that
- 7:45Speaker 1: he was possibly going to be prosecuted. It was up
- 7:48Speaker 1: in the air. Goldberger, my specific question was whether Mr. Weather,
- 7:53Speaker 1: we were told by agents of the FBI, special agents
- 7:56Speaker 1: with the FBI, that Mr. Epstein was going to be
- 7:59Speaker 1: required to register as a sex offender for life. Answer,
- 8:04Speaker 1: I don't remember ever being told that. Question, okay, and
- 8:07Speaker 1: I want to make sure I understand what the agents
- 8:09Speaker 1: told you about whether Mr. Epstein, whether they told you
- 8:12Speaker 1: that Mr. Epstein was entering a guilty plea to state
- 8:15Speaker 1: charges and would not be prosecuted federally. Your testimony is
- 8:19Speaker 1: that you were never told that? Answer, she told me
- 8:22Speaker 1: that it was a possibility he was going to be
- 8:24Speaker 1: prosecuted and plead guilty to the state charges. I didn't
- 8:27Speaker 1: understand how that had anything to do with me, being that,
- 8:30Speaker 1: you know, there was many more victims. He was pleading
- 8:33Speaker 1: out to two counts, a solicitation of prostitution of a minor.
- 8:37Speaker 1: It didn't even make sense. I explained that to both
- 8:40Speaker 1: the people that came and seen me, Nesbitt and the guy.
- 8:44Speaker 1: That makes that charge doesn't even make sense for me,
- 8:47Speaker 1: you know. That's why I didn't. I didn't think it
- 8:49Speaker 1: had anything to do with me. I know that when
- 8:52Speaker 1: I see it on the news... And his mugshot, I
- 8:55Speaker 1: said that, you know, he was being it was two
- 8:58Speaker 1: young girls under the age of 14. I thought that's
- 9:00Speaker 1: what it had to do with. I had no idea
- 9:03Speaker 1: that it had to do with me or any of
- 9:05Speaker 1: the other victims that he did sexually abuse. Scarola, excuse me,
- 9:10Speaker 1: I'm going to interrupt for just a moment. Do you
- 9:12Speaker 1: have other questions relating to the Crime Victims Rights Act case? Goldberger,
- 9:16Speaker 1: I do. Scarola, okay, I'm going to object to your
- 9:19Speaker 1: examination of Ms. Wilde on issues relating to another case.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Those matters don't have any relevance or materiality to this
- 9:27Speaker 1: lawsuit in which she's being deposed. Her counsel has not
- 9:30Speaker 1: had the opportunity to prepare for a deposition in the
- 9:33Speaker 1: Crime Victims Rights Act case. I'm going to instruct her
- 9:37Speaker 1: not to answer any additional questions regarding the Crime Victims
- 9:40Speaker 1: Rights Act case. You may proffer the additional questions that
- 9:43Speaker 1: you'd like to ask for the record, but she will
- 9:46Speaker 1: not answer those pending our ability to obtain a protective order. Goldberger. Well,
- 9:51Speaker 1: we have lots of questions that we intend to ask
- 9:54Speaker 1: about the Crime Victim Rights Act and based on your
- 9:56Speaker 1: cause of action and your theory that you have. you've
- 10:00Speaker 1: explained to the court as to why Mr. Epstein filed
- 10:02Speaker 1: the claim against your client, it's relevant, and I recognize
- 10:06Speaker 1: that you are advising your client not to answer questions. Skrola,
- 10:10Speaker 1: she's not my client. This is a witness. Goldberger, and
- 10:14Speaker 1: you're instructing Skrola. And I am instructing her, I am
- 10:17Speaker 1: informing you, that additional questions relating to the Crime Victims
- 10:21Speaker 1: Rights Act case, beyond those that have already been asked
- 10:23Speaker 1: and answered, are not relevant or material or reasonably calculated
- 10:28Speaker 1: to lead to relevant and material information. Goldberger, well, I...
- 10:33Speaker 1: He gets cut off by Skorola. You are, excuse me. Goldberger,
- 10:36Speaker 1: finish your proffer. Finish whatever you want to say for
- 10:39Speaker 1: the record. Skorola, thank you. You are annoying, harassing this witness...
- 10:43Speaker 1: and we will seek a protective order. Obviously, that can't
- 10:46Speaker 1: be done right now, so proffer your questions. If there's
- 10:49Speaker 1: any among them that I believe to be an exception
- 10:52Speaker 1: to the position that I just stated, I'd be happy
- 10:55Speaker 1: to allow her to answer. Otherwise, I'm telling you generally
- 10:58Speaker 1: that additional questions regarding the Victim's Rights Act case we
- 11:02Speaker 1: can consider to be entirely inappropriate. Goldberger, well, I need
- 11:07Speaker 1: to understand what your objection is. Is it irrelevant, or
- 11:10Speaker 1: is it because she hasn't had opportunity to speak to
- 11:12Speaker 1: her counsel? Scarola, well, it, he gets cut off by Goldberger.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Two different issues. Let me finish, okay? I need to
- 11:19Speaker 1: know specifically what you're saying so I can determine how
- 11:23Speaker 1: I'm going to reply to what you're telling someone who
- 11:25Speaker 1: is not your client to not answer. So, he gets
- 11:29Speaker 1: cut off by Scarola again. Both. Goldberger, okay, both what? Scarola,
- 11:34Speaker 1: both of the grounds that you have inquired about. Goldberger,
- 11:37Speaker 1: are there any other grounds that you're using to advise
- 11:39Speaker 1: someone who is not your client to not answer questions? Skorola, well,
- 11:44Speaker 1: that really depends on what the additional questions are. Goldberger, well,
- 11:48Speaker 1: we may have additional questions. Skorola, go ahead and ask them.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Proffer them for the record. Goldberger, okay. Skorola, I'll raise
- 11:56Speaker 1: my objection and instruct the witness not to answer, and
- 11:59Speaker 1: we'll move on from there. Goldberger, all right. Skorola, and
- 12:03Speaker 1: just so that things are abbreviated, I will simply say,
- 12:06Speaker 1: same objection, same instruction. Goldberger, okay, well, I'd like, if
- 12:11Speaker 1: you have any additional objections... other than she doesn't have
- 12:14Speaker 1: an opportunity to consult with her attorney or you think
- 12:16Speaker 1: it's irrelevant, then please state them. Scarola, and you are
- 12:21Speaker 1: improperly seeking to take discovery in a case other than
- 12:24Speaker 1: the case that is presently pending before the court. Mr. Goldberger, okay,
- 12:29Speaker 1: fair enough. All right, folks, we're going to wrap up
- 12:32Speaker 1: this episode right here. And the next episode dealing with
- 12:35Speaker 1: the topic we're going to pick up where we left off.
- 12:37Speaker 1: All of the information that goes with this episode can
- 12:40Speaker 1: be found in the description box. What's up everyone and
- 12:43Speaker 1: welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode,
- 12:48Speaker 1: we're going to pick up where we left off with
- 12:50Speaker 1: the Courtney Wilde deposition. Mr. Goldberg, at any time did
- 12:56Speaker 1: the FBI agents, did any FBI agent tell you that Mr.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Epstein was pleading guilty in state court to avoid federal prosecution? Scrolla,
- 13:05Speaker 1: same objection, same instruction. Goldberg, Did you ask the FBI
- 13:10Speaker 1: at any time to speak to prosecutors prior to Mr.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Epstein entering into his guilty plea? Scrolla. Same objection. Same instruction. Goldberger.
- 13:19Speaker 1: Did you have the prosecutor's phone number so you could

- 13:27Speaker 1: in fact, receive a victim's notification letter? Scrolla. Same objection.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Same instruction. Goldberger. And on that letter, did it not
- 13:35Speaker 1: have the prosecutor's direct dial number? Scrolla. Same objection, same instruction. Goldberger,
- 13:41Speaker 1: and did the prosecutor in fact tell you in person
- 13:44Speaker 1: that you could call her at any time to discuss
- 13:47Speaker 1: this matter? Scarola, same objection, same instruction. Goldberger, do you
- 13:52Speaker 1: recall receiving a letter from Ms. Villafana when you met
- 13:55Speaker 1: with her at the FBI at Publix in 2007? Scarola,
- 13:59Speaker 1: same objection, same instruction. Goldberger, do you deny that you
- 14:03Speaker 1: had Ms. Villafana's direct phone number to call her if
- 14:06Speaker 1: you so decided? Mr. Skrola, same objection, same instruction. Mr. Goldberger,
- 14:13Speaker 1: do you know whether the non-prosecution agreement made it easier
- 14:16Speaker 1: for you to seek damages against Mr. Epstein? Skrola, same objection,
- 14:21Speaker 1: same instruction. Goldberger, how many times did you meet with
- 14:24Speaker 1: the FBI and Publix to discuss the non-prosecution agreement involving
- 14:28Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein? Skrola, same objection, same instruction. Also, repetitious. Mr. Goldberger, well,
- 14:36Speaker 1: I want to make sure I have a record. Scarola,
- 14:39Speaker 1: you do. Goldberger, okay, I don't think you're wearing a robe,
- 14:42Speaker 1: so I'm going to decide whether I have a record, okay?
- 14:46Speaker 1: Do you recall being interviewed by Special Agent Nesbitt Kirkendall
- 14:49Speaker 1: in August of 2007? The witness, I can't remember the
- 14:53Speaker 1: exact dates when I met her. Goldberger, do you recall
- 14:57Speaker 1: when you did meet with her? At no time did
- 14:59Speaker 1: you ask to confer with anyone from the government? about
- 15:02Speaker 1: any potential criminal charges, decisions, or about any partial resolution
- 15:06Speaker 1: of the matter involving Jeffrey Epstein? Scrolla, same objection, same instruction,
- 15:11Speaker 1: also leading. Goldberger, is it true that between the time
- 15:15Speaker 1: of that interview in August of 2007 and September of 2007,
- 15:18Speaker 1: when Mr. Epstein signed his non-prosecution agreement, you never contacted
- 15:24Speaker 1: either Agent Nesbitt, Kirkendall, or her co-agent asking for information
- 15:28Speaker 1: about the investigation? or asking to confer with anyone from
- 15:32Speaker 1: the government about potential criminal charges, decisions, or about the
- 15:35Speaker 1: resolution of the matter? Scarola, same objection, same instruction, leading, compound. Goldberger,

- 15:46Speaker 1: Assistant United States Attorney, and Myesha Braden from the Justice
- 15:51Speaker 1: Department in January, specifically January 31st of 2008? Answer, now
- 15:58Speaker 1: who was it that I met with? Goldberger, well, I'm
- 16:01Speaker 1: asking you whether you did meet with them. First of all, okay.
- 16:04Speaker 1: January 31st, 2008. Did you participate in an interview with
- 16:09Speaker 1: Marie Villafana? That's the assistant United States attorney, special agent
- 16:13Speaker 1: Nesbitt Kirkendall and Myesha. Myesha Braden from the Justice Department. Answer,
- 16:19Speaker 1: I think that's the time I met with. I told
- 16:21Speaker 1: you that I met with a group of people and
- 16:23Speaker 1: they were just going over the victim service. like stuff
- 16:26Speaker 1: that could they offer me to get therapy and stuff
- 16:29Speaker 1: like that. I believe that's the time. I'm not even
- 16:31Speaker 1: 100% sure, and I can't remember the people's names that
- 16:35Speaker 1: I met with. Question, I understand that. Do you also remember,
- 16:39Speaker 1: by the way, meeting with Vili Ferrer, the U.S. attorney,
- 16:42Speaker 1: the acting U.S. attorney? Answer, uh-uh. Question, no. Answer, no,
- 16:47Speaker 1: I don't. Question, okay, do you recall getting a letter
- 16:51Speaker 1: from Special Master Judge Davis identifying Robert Josephsburg, an attorney?
- 16:55Speaker 1: that the court would find to help sue Mr. Epstein
- 16:58Speaker 1: for restitution? Answer. I believe I did receive a mail
- 17:02Speaker 1: or a letter stating something like that, that they would
- 17:06Speaker 1: give me an attorney, but I can't remember exactly what
- 17:08Speaker 1: it said. Question. Okay. You elected not to take advantage
- 17:12Speaker 1: of that. You use Mr. Edwards as your attorney. Answer. Yeah.
- 17:16Speaker 1: I think by the time you might have been my
- 17:18Speaker 1: attorney already. Yeah. Question. Okay. And the lawsuit that Mr.
- 17:21Speaker 1: Epstein filed, scroller, The record will reflect that the U
- 17:26Speaker 1: in that response is a reference to Mr. Edwards. Goldberger, okay,
- 17:30Speaker 1: by the way, I'm done. I think I'm done with
- 17:34Speaker 1: the areas that I want to proffer about the NPA,
- 17:36Speaker 1: so we're going to move on to some other stuff.
- 17:39Speaker 1: Have you ever actually reviewed the complaint that Mr. Edwards
- 17:42Speaker 1: filed on your behalf? Answer, what complaint? Question, the lawsuit. Answer, yeah. Question, okay,

- 18:06Speaker 1: complaint that Mr. Edwards filed on behalf of Ms. Wilde? Goldberger.
- 18:11Speaker 1: The complaint that your client, Brad Edwards, filed on behalf
- 18:14Speaker 1: of Ms. Wilde. Yeah. Scrolla. And the complaint had subsequent amendments. Goldberger. Right. Scrolla.
- 18:20Speaker 1: So are you reading from the original complaint or the
- 18:23Speaker 1: amended complaint? Goldberger, it's the same whether it's in the
- 18:26Speaker 1: complaint or the amended complaint. The paragraph that we're going
- 18:30Speaker 1: to talk about is in both. So you could use
- 18:33Speaker 1: the amended complaint or you could use the original complaint. Edwards,
- 18:37Speaker 1: what paragraph? Goldberger, paragraph 20. Scarola, I'm sorry, which one? Goldberger, 20.
- 18:43Speaker 1: And it may be 22 in the amended complaint, but
- 18:47Speaker 1: it's the same exact paragraph. Scarola, well, I have it
- 18:50Speaker 1: in front of me. Of the third amended complaint, Goldberger,
- 18:53Speaker 1: can I take a look at it? Maybe I can
- 18:55Speaker 1: make the record better if I take a look at it. Okay, Mr. Edwards,
- 18:59Speaker 1: on your behalf, filed several complaints, amended several complaints. Answer, right. Question, okay.
- 19:06Speaker 1: And you're aware of the federal lawsuit he also prepared? Answer, right. Answer,
- 19:11Speaker 1: the CVR. Question, no. Answer, which lawsuit are we talking about? Question, well,
- 19:18Speaker 1: Let's hold that thought. We'll come back. I'm not talking
- 19:20Speaker 1: about the CVRA case. Answer, okay. Question, I'm talking about
- 19:24Speaker 1: another lawsuit that he prepared, and we'll come back to
- 19:27Speaker 1: that in a minute. By the way, when you worked
- 19:29Speaker 1: at the strip clubs before you were 18, did you
- 19:32Speaker 1: have an adult entertainment card? Answer, no. Question, do you
- 19:35Speaker 1: know what that is? Answer, yeah. Question, okay, what is it? Answer,
- 19:41Speaker 1: it's a license that you have to have to dance.
- 19:44Speaker 1: They made it that you have to have it now.
- 19:46Speaker 1: But before, you didn't have to have it. But some
- 19:48Speaker 1: people did if they would go after it. of the county,
- 19:50Speaker 1: like out of Palm Beach County. Question, yeah, and how
- 19:54Speaker 1: old do you have to be to get that adult
- 19:55Speaker 1: entertainment card? Answer, 18. Question, okay, so you were dancing
- 20:00Speaker 1: without a card before you were 18. Answer, I was
- 20:03Speaker 1: dancing without a card before I was 18. Question, okay.
- 20:08Speaker 1: How about before you were 18? Were you dancing without
- 20:10Speaker 1: a card? Answer, no. Question, no, you were not. Answer,
- 20:15Speaker 1: I wasn't dancing before. A couple times that I would
- 20:18Speaker 1: go dance. Like one night I went to a strip
- 20:20Speaker 1: club with a bunch of my friends and I got
- 20:22Speaker 1: on the stage and made some money and that was it.
- 20:25Speaker 1: But I wasn't like working there. I wasn't even supposed
- 20:27Speaker 1: to be on stage or anything like that. Question, all right.
- 20:31Speaker 1: At any time when you went to Jeffrey Epstein's house,
- 20:34Speaker 1: were you there? Ever any drugs there? Answer, no. Question,
- 20:38Speaker 1: did you ever see any drugs there? Answer, no. Question,
- 20:42Speaker 1: were you ever given alcohol when you were at Mr.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Epstein's home? Answer, no. Question, did you ever see Mr.
- 20:48Speaker 1: Epstein drink? Answer, no. Question, when I say drink, I
- 20:52Speaker 1: mean alcohol. Answer, right. Question, okay. Were you ever given
- 20:56Speaker 1: any pills or drugs at Mr. Epstein's home? Answer, no. Question,
- 21:01Speaker 1: did Mr. Epstein ever give you advice about not using
- 21:04Speaker 1: illegal drugs? Answer, no. Question, are you sure of that? Answer,
- 21:09Speaker 1: not to my knowledge. I can't remember him saying anything
- 21:12Speaker 1: about it. Question, okay. Do you remember telling the FBI
- 21:15Speaker 1: agents that you were interviewed on August 7th of 2007
- 21:19Speaker 1: that Mr. Epstein counseled you not to use any drugs? Answer,
- 21:24Speaker 1: I don't remember. Brad Edwards, objection. Improper impeachment if the
- 21:28Speaker 1: witness can see the statement. Goldberger, you don't remember? Would
- 21:32Speaker 1: you read the memorandum of interview dated August 7th, 2007?
- 21:37Speaker 1: I'm going to direct you. I only have one copy.
- 21:40Speaker 1: You want to look at it first? Scrolla. Yeah, thank you.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Is there a particular section you want to call attention to? Goldberger. Yeah, actually, maybe.
- 21:49Speaker 1: Do I have another copy? No, different interview. Scrolla. Do
- 21:53Speaker 1: you want to mark the section that you'd like us
- 21:55Speaker 1: to look at? Goldberger. I might. Here you go. Scrolla.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Do you have the first two pages that go with
- 22:03Speaker 1: the document? Goldberger, I do not. Maybe I do. Yeah, no,
- 22:07Speaker 1: different interview. We have not the complete document, but I'm
- 22:10Speaker 1: concerned about a specific reference in the memorandum of interview
- 22:14Speaker 1: concerning whether Mr. Epstein advised the witness to not use
- 22:18Speaker 1: controlled substance and showing her the document to refresh her recollection. Mr.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Scarola and both we and the witness have a right
- 22:26Speaker 1: to review the document in its entirety. I'm going to
- 22:29Speaker 1: object to its use in partial form. Goldberger, here you go.
- 22:34Speaker 1: Here's the whole document. Scarola, thank you. Do you have
- 22:37Speaker 1: this document in unredacted form so we can identify who
- 22:40Speaker 1: these people are? Goldberger, it has never been provided, as
- 22:44Speaker 1: you know, as a former prosecutor, Mr. Scarola. Certain items
- 22:48Speaker 1: are privileged and protected, and that is what we receive
- 22:51Speaker 1: from the FBI. Scarola, but that's not a response to
- 22:54Speaker 1: my question. Goldberger, yeah, well... Scorola, do you have this
- 22:59Speaker 1: document in unredacted form so that we can identify who
- 23:02Speaker 1: the interviewee and interviewers are? Goldberger, I've given you everything. Actually,
- 23:07Speaker 1: we probably took it off the discovery you provided to us,
- 23:10Speaker 1: so you have everything that we have. Scorola, okay, thank you.
- 23:14Speaker 1: And you would like the witness to look at three
- 23:17Speaker 1: lines that are highlighted? Well, you have one line highlighted, actually,
- 23:20Speaker 1: but do you want her to look at all three
- 23:22Speaker 1: lines in that very short paragraph? Mr. Goldberger, if I've
- 23:26Speaker 1: highlighted one line and you think the question is or
- 23:28Speaker 1: requires her to look at the three lines, she may
- 23:30Speaker 1: look at the three lines. Scarola, well, the one line
- 23:34Speaker 1: you highlighted for the record read Epstein with massages said
- 23:38Speaker 1: that Epstein tried to provide her. Goldberger, okay. Is there
- 23:42Speaker 1: more there? I mean, I don't want to play games
- 23:44Speaker 1: if you think there's more. Scarola, I don't want to
- 23:47Speaker 1: play games either. I just want to know what it
- 23:49Speaker 1: is you want to call the witness's attention to. Goldberger,
- 23:53Speaker 1: I'm highlighting the entire paragraph. Redacted, used illegal drugs during
- 23:57Speaker 1: the year. I'll read it into the record. Redacted, used
- 24:00Speaker 1: illegal drugs during the year. She provided Epstein with massages.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Redacted said that Epstein tried to provide her with advice
- 24:07Speaker 1: regarding controlled substance. That's what I'm asking you. Whether it
- 24:12Speaker 1: refreshes your memory as to whether Mr. Epstein ever gave
- 24:15Speaker 1: you advice about using illegal drugs. Answer, I can't remember that. Scrolla,
- 24:21Speaker 1: I would like this document marked as an exhibit to
- 24:23Speaker 1: the deposition. Goldberger, we can do it in a moment.
- 24:27Speaker 1: We'll put it over there. Scrolla, do you mind if
- 24:29Speaker 1: I just write exhibit number one on the bottom right
- 24:32Speaker 1: hand corner? Goldberger, well, let me make sure my notes. Scrolla,
- 24:37Speaker 1: there's no notes on it. Goldberger, let me take a
- 24:39Speaker 1: look at it. Scrolla, except for your yellow highlighting. Goldberger,
- 24:44Speaker 1: let me take a look at it. One copy I
- 24:45Speaker 1: think I put some notes on. Sure. Scrolla, thank you
- 24:48Speaker 1: for the record. I am marking this document consisting of
- 24:51Speaker 1: five pages, and I'm placing exhibit number one in the
- 24:54Speaker 1: lower right-hand corner, whereupon exhibit number one was marked for identification.
- 25:00Speaker 1: All right, folks, we're going to wrap up this episode
- 25:02Speaker 1: right here, and in the next episode dealing with the topic,
- 25:05Speaker 1: we're going to pick up where we left off. All
- 25:08Speaker 1: of the information that goes with this episode can be
- 25:10Speaker 1: found in the description box. What's up everyone and welcome
- 25:14Speaker 1: to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode
- 25:18Speaker 1: we're going to pick up where we left off with
- 25:20Speaker 1: the Courtney Wilde deposition. Goldberger. Have you ever referred to
- 25:25Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein as a fucking Jew? Answer I may have.
- 25:30Speaker 1: Question when did you do that ma'am? When did you
- 25:32Speaker 1: refer to Mr. Epstein as a fucking Jew? Answer I
- 25:35Speaker 1: don't know in my past I may have said that. Question. Question.

- 25:57Speaker 1: How many people have you called? How many have you
- 25:59Speaker 1: said to? Strike that. Have you told more than one
- 26:01Speaker 1: person that Mr. Epstein was a fucking Jew? Answer. Yes, possibly. Question.
- 26:07Speaker 1: And as you sit here today. You don't know who
- 26:09Speaker 1: you made that anti-Semitic remark to? Answer, I can't remember
- 26:13Speaker 1: who I said that to. Question, when was the first
- 26:16Speaker 1: time you met Mr. Edwards? Answer, let's see. It's been probably,
- 26:20Speaker 1: I can't remember how long it's been since I met you.
- 26:23Speaker 1: It's been a while. Question, do you know how you
- 26:26Speaker 1: met Mr. Edwards? Answer, yes, through Jay Howell. Question, Jay
- 26:30Speaker 1: Howell's a lawyer? Answer, yes. Question, would that have been
- 26:34Speaker 1: back in 2007 or 2008 perhaps? Answer, that sounds about right, yeah. Question, okay,
- 26:40Speaker 1: do you know Paul Cassell? Answer, yes. Question, okay, have
- 26:43Speaker 1: you met Paul Cassell? Answer, yes. Question, how many times
- 26:47Speaker 1: have you met Paul Cassell? Answer, maybe three times. Question, okay,
- 26:52Speaker 1: once when you were brought over in custody for the mediation?

- 27:05Speaker 1: You know your plaintiff in the CVRA case, right? Answer, yes. Question, okay.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Did you sign any kind of agreement letter on that case? Answer,
- 27:14Speaker 1: I don't understand what that means. Question, sure. When you
- 27:17Speaker 1: sued Epstein for money, you signed a contract, right? Answer, right. Question,
- 27:22Speaker 1: and is set forth the terms for which Mr. Edwards
- 27:25Speaker 1: was going to represent you, right? Answer, right. Question, did
- 27:30Speaker 1: you sign one of those on the CVRA case also? Answer,
- 27:34Speaker 1: I don't believe so, no. Question. Okay. Are you funding
- 27:38Speaker 1: the CVRA case in any way? Answer. No. Question. Okay.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Can I see the document, please? How old were you
- 27:45Speaker 1: when you first met Mr. Epstein? Answer. I was 14. Question.
- 27:49Speaker 1: Do you remember telling the FBI that you were close
- 27:52Speaker 1: to 16 when you met Mr. Epstein? Answer. I don't
- 27:55Speaker 1: remember saying that. Question. Would it refresh your memory to
- 27:58Speaker 1: look at the exhibit that Mr. Skrola has marked as
- 28:01Speaker 1: Exhibit 1? And let me direct you to the second
- 28:03Speaker 1: full paragraph. Skrola. May I see it first, please? And
- 28:08Speaker 1: your question is, does this paragraph refresh Ms. Wilde's recollection
- 28:13Speaker 1: that she told the FBI that she was 16? Goldberger,
- 28:16Speaker 1: very good, correct. Scarola, do you want to read that
- 28:18Speaker 1: paragraph again? Goldberger, sure. Scarola, whether that's the question that
- 28:23Speaker 1: you want to ask, since it doesn't say anything like that.
- 28:26Speaker 1: In fact, it says she was 15. Mr. Goldberger, who
- 28:30Speaker 1: was close to turning 16, did you tell the FBI? Scarola, well...
- 28:35Speaker 1: Is there a difference between being 15 and 16? Goldberger,
- 28:38Speaker 1: not really, not in my mind. Scarola, okay. Goldberger, okay. Scarola,
- 28:43Speaker 1: and not Mr. Epstein's either, I guess. Goldberger, okay, move
- 28:48Speaker 1: to strike. Question, did you tell the FBI that you
- 28:52Speaker 1: were close to 16 when you first met Mr. Epstein? Answer,
- 28:56Speaker 1: I can't really remember me ever saying I was 16
- 28:58Speaker 1: years old. Question, okay, do you remember telling Mr. Epstein
- 29:01Speaker 1: when you first met him that you were 18? Answer, no. question, okay,
- 29:06Speaker 1: would it refresh your memory to look at the memorandum
- 29:09Speaker 1: of interview concerning the interview you did with the FBI
- 29:12Speaker 1: in August of 2007? And what you told the agent
- 29:16Speaker 1: about what you told Mr. Epstein is your age? Scarola,
- 29:19Speaker 1: excuse me, I'm going to object to the form of
- 29:21Speaker 1: the question. It assumes that the redactions in that document,
- 29:25Speaker 1: which obviously relate to multiple individuals, identify Ms. Wilde as
- 29:29Speaker 1: a particular speaker. Goldberger, okay, having said that, Would you
- 29:33Speaker 1: look at that and see if it refreshes your recollection
- 29:36Speaker 1: as to whether you told Mr. Epstein when you first
- 29:39Speaker 1: met him that you were 16 years old? Scarola, the
- 29:42Speaker 1: same second paragraph. Goldberger, same second paragraph. Thank you. The
- 29:46Speaker 1: last line of the second paragraph. Scarola, the last line. Goldberger, uh-huh. Courtney, no,
- 29:54Speaker 1: I don't remember saying that. Mr. Goldberger, Okay, did you
- 29:57Speaker 1: in fact tell Mr. Epstein that you were 18 when
- 30:00Speaker 1: you first met him? Answer, no. Question, did you tell
- 30:03Speaker 1: him how old you were? Answer, I don't believe I
- 30:05Speaker 1: ever told him how old I was, no. Goldberger, okay,
- 30:09Speaker 1: here you go. I'm going to go into some additional
- 30:12Speaker 1: questions about the CVRA. I recognize that you're going to
- 30:15Speaker 1: instruct the witness not to answer the questions. And so
- 30:19Speaker 1: we have some ground rules for this. Is the time
- 30:21Speaker 1: the objections that it's irrelevant and she does not have
- 30:24Speaker 1: the ability to consult with her lawyer. Or, do you
- 30:27Speaker 1: want me to ask the questions first? Scarola, no, that's
- 30:30Speaker 1: not an accurate statement. Goldberger, well, give me your accurate
- 30:34Speaker 1: assessment then. Scarola, yeah, the questions are irrelevant, immaterial, not
- 30:39Speaker 1: reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of relevant and
- 30:43Speaker 1: material information. Goldberger, okay. Scarola, in addition to that, the
- 30:48Speaker 1: witness was not noticed as being deposed in a separate
- 30:51Speaker 1: CVRA action. Her counsel with regard to the separate CVRA
- 30:55Speaker 1: action were not noticed. Therefore, her counsel have not had
- 31:00Speaker 1: the opportunity to consult with her regarding giving testimony in
- 31:03Speaker 1: the separate CVRA action. So those are the objections that
- 31:08Speaker 1: were previously raised. In addition to others stated as to
- 31:11Speaker 1: the specific questions, they are the objections that I will
- 31:15Speaker 1: incorporate simply by saying same objection, same instruction for purposes
- 31:19Speaker 1: of not burdening the record with repetition of the same
- 31:22Speaker 1: objection and same instruction. Mr. Goldberger, Have you now stated
- 31:28Speaker 1: all of the objections you want to state concerning any
- 31:30Speaker 1: objections or questions I'm going to have concerning the CVRA
- 31:34Speaker 1: subject to a specific question? Scarola, I've stated all of
- 31:38Speaker 1: the objections that I wish to incorporate in abbreviated objections
- 31:42Speaker 1: and instruction. Goldberger, okay. What were your goals as a
- 31:45Speaker 1: plaintiff in filing the CVRA case? Scarola, objection. Goldberger, okay.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Was one of your goals to invalidate the non-prosecution agreement? Scarola, objection. Edwards,
- 31:56Speaker 1: can we just take one second? Goldberger, yeah, you want
- 32:00Speaker 1: to talk to her? That's fine. They paused. Now they're
- 32:02Speaker 1: back and Goldberger is asking questions again. Goldberger, are you good? Scarola, yeah. Goldberger, okay.
- 32:10Speaker 1: Have you ever discussed with Tata Miller the filing of
- 32:13Speaker 1: the CVRA? Scarola, same objection. Goldberger, have you ever discussed
- 32:18Speaker 1: with any non-lawyer or someone working for a lawyer the
- 32:21Speaker 1: reasons for filing the CVRA case? Scarola, objection. Goldberger, do
- 32:26Speaker 1: you realize that if you prevail on the CVRA case
- 32:30Speaker 1: and the non-prosecution agreement is ruled void, any civil settlement
- 32:33Speaker 1: that relied on the Civil Victims Rights Act case could
- 32:36Speaker 1: be vacated? Scarola, same objection, same instruction, also calls for
- 32:42Speaker 1: a legal conclusion. Goldberger, okay. Scarola, based upon an improper hypothesis. Goldberger,
- 32:49Speaker 1: are you seeking an apology from the government for the
- 32:52Speaker 1: filing of the CVRA? Scarola, same objection, same instruction. Goldberger,
- 32:58Speaker 1: is that important to you, ma'am? Scarola, objection. Goldberger, are
- 33:03Speaker 1: you attempting to punish Jeffrey Epstein by causing the loss
- 33:06Speaker 1: of the non-prosecution agreement? Goldberger, same objection. Courtney Wild, what
- 33:11Speaker 1: was the question? Goldberger, are you attempting to punish Jeffrey
- 33:14Speaker 1: Epstein by causing the non-prosecution agreement to be set aside? Answer,
- 33:19Speaker 1: I just feel like justice should be served and he
- 33:22Speaker 1: should be put in jail for the crimes that he committed. Question, okay,
- 33:25Speaker 1: do you blame him for being in jail right now, ma'am? Answer, no,
- 33:29Speaker 1: I've made my own choices. But I do believe that
- 33:32Speaker 1: a lot of the trauma that I have is due
- 33:34Speaker 1: to what happened to me when I was a young
- 33:35Speaker 1: girl because of Jeffrey. Question, I want to talk to
- 33:39Speaker 1: you a little bit about Tata Miller. When did you
- 33:41Speaker 1: first meet her? Answer, when I was like 13 or
- 33:44Speaker 1: 14 years old. Question, and was Tata Miller younger or
- 33:47Speaker 1: older than you? Answer, younger. Question, how much younger? Answer,
- 33:52Speaker 1: she's like a year younger than me. Question, okay, when
- 33:55Speaker 1: did you meet her though? Answer, I met her through
- 33:57Speaker 1: a friend. Question, did you meet her at a party perhaps? Answer,
- 34:01Speaker 1: I can't remember exactly. I know I met her through
- 34:03Speaker 1: a friend though. Question, uh-huh, okay, what friend was that? Answer,
- 34:07Speaker 1: I think a boy that I was dating named Jesse. Answer,
- 34:11Speaker 1: but we were just friends at first, but I think
- 34:14Speaker 1: that's how. Maybe, I can't remember. I can't remember. Question,
- 34:18Speaker 1: do you know a boy named Bobby? Answer, uh-huh, question, okay.
- 34:23Speaker 1: Do you know where that party was? Answer, no, I
- 34:25Speaker 1: wouldn't remember. Question, okay. Would you consider Tatum Miller to
- 34:29Speaker 1: be your good friend when you first met her? Answer, yeah. Question, okay.
- 34:34Speaker 1: And does she continue to be your good friend? Answer,
- 34:36Speaker 1: we're still friends. Question, okay. Answer, I haven't talked to
- 34:40Speaker 1: her in a while though. Answer, okay. Was there a
- 34:43Speaker 1: time where you lived actually Tatum Miller's father let you
- 34:46Speaker 1: live at his house? Answer, yes. Question, okay. When was that? Answer,
- 34:51Speaker 1: when I was 14, 15 for two years. Answer, okay,
- 34:55Speaker 1: did you ever have sex with Tata Miller? Answer, no,
- 34:58Speaker 1: not when I was a young girl. I don't think
- 35:00Speaker 1: that we did. Question, okay, did you ever have oral
- 35:03Speaker 1: sex with Tata Miller prior to being 18? Answer, yes. Question, okay,
- 35:08Speaker 1: when did that take place? Answer, I can't remember. Question,
- 35:13Speaker 1: was it at a party or was it in private? Answer,
- 35:16Speaker 1: I can't remember. Question, okay, but do you remember having
- 35:19Speaker 1: oral sex with her? Answer. I know that we have. Yes.
- 35:23Speaker 1: Do you know how many times that you've had oral
- 35:24Speaker 1: sex with Tata Miller? Answer. No. Question. Okay. Is Tata
- 35:29Speaker 1: Miller the one who recruited you to go to Jeffrey
- 35:31Speaker 1: Epstein's home? Answer. Yes. Question. Okay. Did you go to Mr.
- 35:35Speaker 1: Epstein's house together the first time? Answer. Yeah. Question. Okay.
- 35:40Speaker 1: At other times that you may have been at Mr.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Epstein's house, did you see Tata Miller there? Answer. If
- 35:46Speaker 1: I didn't go with her, sometimes I'd go by myself.
- 35:49Speaker 1: Sometimes I'd bring girls. I never went there and Tatum
- 35:52Speaker 1: was there. Question. Okay. Did you ever talk to her
- 35:54Speaker 1: about Mr. Epstein? Answer. Yes. Question. Okay. What discussions did
- 35:59Speaker 1: you have concerning Mr. Epstein? Answer. I can't remember the
- 36:03Speaker 1: discussions now. What we talked about. Question. Do you know
- 36:06Speaker 1: if Ms. Miller had ever claimed whether Mr. Epstein was
- 36:09Speaker 1: physically violent to her? Answer. I don't believe she's ever
- 36:13Speaker 1: said that to me. Question. Okay. Did Ms. Miller tell
- 36:16Speaker 1: you in going to Goldberger? You can go ahead. Edwards.
- 36:20Speaker 1: I feel like that canteen would be useful right now.
- 36:24Speaker 1: The witness, yeah. Goldberger, go off the record for a second.
- 36:27Speaker 1: They go off, then they're back. Back on, I saw
- 36:30Speaker 1: it coming. Question, did Miss Miller tell you that in
- 36:34Speaker 1: going to Mr. Epstein's house, your choice to get naked
- 36:37Speaker 1: was in fact a choice that you could make? Answer, yeah.
- 36:41Speaker 1: She said that he would be like if I took
- 36:42Speaker 1: off all my clothes, but I didn't have to. I
- 36:45Speaker 1: could keep my panties on if I wanted to. Question, okay,
- 36:48Speaker 1: did Miss Miller tell you to lie about... Your age
- 36:51Speaker 1: when going to Mr. Epstein's house? No. Question. Now, did
- 36:55Speaker 1: Miss Miller tell you that as part of the massage, Mr.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Epstein would ejaculate into his own hand? Answer. Yeah, she
- 37:01Speaker 1: did tell me that. Question. Uh-huh. And did she tell
- 37:05Speaker 1: you that prior to your going there? Answer. She really didn't.
- 37:09Speaker 1: I can't remember if she said that to me or not.
- 37:12Speaker 1: For some reason, I want to say she didn't. But
- 37:14Speaker 1: it's been so long, I don't know. Question. So your
- 37:17Speaker 1: recollection is at some point, Miss Miller told you... that Mr.
- 37:20Speaker 1: Epstein would ejaculate into his hand. Yes, I think so. Question,
- 37:24Speaker 1: but you don't remember when she told you this? Answer, right. Question, okay.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Had he ever ejaculated into his hand while you were
- 37:33Speaker 1: massaging him prior to Ms. Miller telling you that? He
- 37:36Speaker 1: being Mr. Epstein, I'm sorry. Answer, I mean the first
- 37:39Speaker 1: time I went, ever met him, that's what he did.
- 37:42Speaker 1: He ejaculated into his own hand. After the first time,
- 37:46Speaker 1: we didn't really have to talk about it, because that's
- 37:49Speaker 1: something that did happen. Question, so you have a recollection
- 37:53Speaker 1: of Ms. Miller having told you that Mr. Epstein would
- 37:55Speaker 1: ejaculate into his hand during a massage? Answer, I can't
- 37:59Speaker 1: remember if she told me or not. Question, okay. Courtney,

- 46:16Speaker 1: didn't use a name like Taylor or anything like that?
- 46:19Speaker 1: You knew you were going to his house to make money,
- 46:21Speaker 1: is that correct? Answer, yes. Question, and you were acting
- 46:25Speaker 1: as a prostitute when you went there? Answer, yes. question. Okay,
- 46:29Speaker 1: no one forced you to go. It was your choice
- 46:30Speaker 1: to go, correct? Yo, I have to interject. She was
- 46:33Speaker 1: 14 when she was going there. She can't be a prostitute.
- 46:36Speaker 1: And this is the whole entire basis for the cover story.
- 46:40Speaker 1: That's why he gave the money. That's why when the
- 46:42Speaker 1: girls brought other girls, he paid them so that later
- 46:44Speaker 1: on down the road, if he got nailed, he can
- 46:46Speaker 1: use it as an excuse. Oh, it was, they were
- 46:48Speaker 1: all part of it too. And that's why this story
- 46:51Speaker 1: is what it is. Because the legacy media and people
- 46:55Speaker 1: that were covering it at the time covered it as prostitution.
- 46:59Speaker 1: When in fact, it's not prostitution, it's child abuse. Question,
- 47:05Speaker 1: you had a choice to say no if you wanted
- 47:07Speaker 1: to say no. Answer, yes. Question, was there ever any
- 47:10Speaker 1: physical force that was used by anyone at Mr. Epstein's
- 47:13Speaker 1: home to coerce you or force you to engage in
- 47:17Speaker 1: any act? Answer, no. Question, did Mr. Epstein ever threaten
- 47:20Speaker 1: to use physical force against you? Answer, no. Question, did Mr.
- 47:25Speaker 1: Epstein ever use physical violence against you? Answer, no. Question,
- 47:30Speaker 1: did Mr. Epstein ever raise his voice to you? Answer,
- 47:34Speaker 1: never like face to face. A couple of times. There
- 47:38Speaker 1: was times I was supposed to bring a girl and
- 47:40Speaker 1: the girl canceled or the girl ended up not wanting
- 47:43Speaker 1: to come or something like that. So there were a
- 47:45Speaker 1: couple of times on the phone where he yelled at me,
- 47:47Speaker 1: like just frustrated about me not bringing the girl. Question. Okay.
- 47:51Speaker 1: Other than that, any other yelling? Answer. No. Question. When

- 48:14Speaker 1: panties on if I wanted to. Question, okay. If my
- 48:17Speaker 1: math is correct, and correct me if I'm wrong, Mr.
- 48:20Speaker 1: Edwards has represented you for 10 years now. Is that correct? Answer, yes. Question, okay.

- 48:29Speaker 1: Edwards has not represented you? Answer, no. Question, okay. Did
- 48:33Speaker 1: you fire him at any time? Answer, no. Question, okay.
- 48:37Speaker 1: Did you ever get... Did he ever get you a
- 48:39Speaker 1: lawyer on this criminal case that has you in prison

- 49:57Speaker 1: did you meet any of Mr. Edwards' support staff? Answer, no. Question,

- 50:04Speaker 1: and you just met Mr. Edwards, and you didn't meet
- 50:06Speaker 1: anybody else? Question, I mean, if I walked past other
- 50:09Speaker 1: people there, they could have been working there, that's a possibility,
- 50:13Speaker 1: but I wasn't introduced to anybody or didn't have a
- 50:15Speaker 1: conversation with anybody else. Question, okay, how long were you

- 50:45Speaker 1: is information that Brad Edwards communicated to you during the
- 50:49Speaker 1: course of your attorney-client relationship with Brad. You should not
- 50:52Speaker 1: respond to that question. If you know anything at all
- 50:55Speaker 1: about that lawsuit from the source other than communication with Brad,
- 50:59Speaker 1: then by all means, you are entitled to and obliged
- 51:02Speaker 1: to answer that question. The witness, okay, Goldberger, that's correct,
- 51:06Speaker 1: that's correct. Courtney, yeah, so I don't want to answer it,
- 51:10Speaker 1: I guess. Question, all right. So what you're saying is

- 52:42Speaker 1: not talking about the CVRI case, but a separate federal
- 52:45Speaker 1: lawsuit seeking damages for you against Mr. Epstein? Edwards object

- 52:53Speaker 1: knows that information only from conversations that she had with me. Goldberger, sure. Question,
- 52:59Speaker 1: so other than conversations you had with Edwards, or one

- 53:05Speaker 1: you know that Mr. Edwards had asked to be prepared
- 53:08Speaker 1: a federal lawsuit that was the same lawsuit that was

- 1:05:37Speaker 1: Me and Tatum went together more than once, you know? Question, okay,
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: so I interrupted you in your description of what went on.
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: There was usually more than one girl there at a time. Kohlberger,
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: Objective Form. Courtney, yes. Scarola, what happened? Courtney, so we
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: would go upstairs and we'd set up the massage table
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: and we would get undressed and wait for him to
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: walk in. And he would walk in normally... Like a
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: robe and lay on the massage table and one girl,
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: you know, would get on one side of him and
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: I would get on the other side and give him

- 1:06:12Speaker 1: And he would take like phone business calls, like phone
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: calls as we do this. Scarola, I'm going to interrupt

- 1:06:41Speaker 1: dealing with the issue, we're going to pick up where
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: we left off. All of the information that goes with

- 1:07:11Speaker 1: he wouldn't have any clothes on. Scrolla, okay. Answer, and
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: we would just put like a towel over his butt
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: while we massaged him. Scrolla, tell us what happened next. Answer,
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: and when he was done taking his phone calls and
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: stuff like that, he would flip over. And if I
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: was bringing a girl, he would ask me to go
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: downstairs and wait for her. And either he would have
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: the money when he came in, he would put the
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: money on the counter, or, you know, I can't. That's
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: normally what he would do. And so I'd go downstairs
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: and I'd wait for the girl to get done. And
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: I'd wait in the kitchen for her until she came down. Question.
