Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 0:04In this episode, we're going to continue taking a look
- 0:06at Klaine Maxwell's response to Virginia's response about the undisputed facts.
- 0:13Forty five Plaintiff and Figeroa shared a vehicle during two
- 0:18thousand and one and two thousand and two. Plaintiff in
- 0:21Figaroa shared a nineteen ninety three Pontiac in two thousand
- 0:24and one and two thousand and two. Plaintiff freely traveled
- 0:28around the Palm Beach area in that vehicle. In August
- 0:31of two thousand and two, Plaintiff acquired a Dodge Dakota
- 0:34pickup truck from her father example p At sixty seven
- 0:38and sixty eight. Figaroa used that vehicle in a series
- 0:42of crimes before and after plaintiff left for Thailand. Reply again,
- 0:47the response has nothing to do with the fact stated,
- 0:50as plaintiff concedes, she and mister Figaroa had one car
- 0:54that they both used. In fact, they traveled to and
- 0:57from school together example p At sixty seven and sixty eight.
- 1:02She does not dispute that she traveled freely around the
- 1:05Palm Beach area in that vehicle or that her car
- 1:08was used in a series of thefts while she was
- 1:11in Thailand. All that should be deemed admitted forty six
- 1:16undisputed fact forty six. Plaintiff held a number of jobs
- 1:19in two thousand and one and two thousand and two.
- 1:22During two thousand and one and two thousand and two,
- 1:24plaintiff was gainfully employed at several jobs. She worked as
- 1:28a waitress at Menino's Restaurant, at TGIF's Friday's Restaurant, and
- 1:33at Roadhouse Grill. She also was employed at Courtyard Animal Hospital.
- 1:39Reply plaintiff admits all of the facts that fourth above,
- 1:43aside from the use of the word gainfully, they should
- 1:46be deemed admitted forty seven. In September two thousand and two,
- 1:51plaintiff traveled to Thailand to receive massage training, and while
- 1:55there met her future husband and a lope with them.
- 1:58Plaintiff traveled to Thailand and said September of two thousand
- 2:01and two to receive formal training as a massuse Figaroa
- 2:05drove her to the airport. While there, she initially contacted
- 2:08Figaroa frequently, incurring a phone bill of four thousand dollars.
- 2:13She met her husband while in Thailand and decided to
- 2:16marry him. She thereafter ceased all contact with Figaroa from
- 2:20October two thousand and two until two days before mister
- 2:23Figaroa's deposition in this matter in May of twenty sixteen.
- 2:28Reply again, Plaintiff does not refute the facts set forth.
- 2:31She simply offers her own interpretation of those facts. In
- 2:35the absence of any country evidence, they should be deemed
- 2:39admitted forty eight undisputed Fact Number forty eight Detective Ricarrey's
- 2:44investigation of Epstein fel to uncover any evidence that Miss
- 2:48Maxwell was involved in sexual abuse of miners, sexual trafficking,
- 2:52or production or possession of child pornography. Joseph Riccari served
- 2:57as the lead detective from the Palm Beach Place Police
- 3:00Department charged with investigating Jeffrey Epstein example GG at ten.
- 3:05That investigation commenced in two thousand and five. Riccari worked
- 3:09only on the Epstein case for an entire year. He
- 3:12reviewed previous officer's reports and interviews, conducted numerous interviews of
- 3:17witnesses and alleged victims. Himself, reviewed surveillance footage of the
- 3:22Epstein home, participated in and had knowledge of the search
- 3:26warrant executed on the Epstein home and testified regarding the
- 3:30case before the Florida State grand jury against Epstein. Detective
- 3:35Rickerrey's investigation revealed that not one of the alleged Epstein
- 3:39victims ever mentioned Miss Maxwell's name, and she was never
- 3:43considered a suspect by the government. None of Epstein's alleged
- 3:47victims said they had seen Miss Maxwell at Epstein's house,
- 3:50nor said they had been recruited by her, nor paid
- 3:53any money buyer, nor told what to wear or how
- 3:56to act buyer. Indeed, none of Epstein's alleged victims ever
- 4:00reported to the government they had ever met or spoken
- 4:03to Miss Maxwell. Maxwell was not seen coming or going
- 4:07from the house during the law enforcement surveillance of Epstein's home.
- 4:11The arrest warrant did not mention Miss Maxwell, and her
- 4:15name was never mentioned before the grand jury. No property
- 4:19belonging to Maxwell, including sex toys or child pornography, was
- 4:23seized from Epstein's home during execution of the search warrant.
- 4:27IDEA two fifty seven, Detective Roccary, when asked to describe
- 4:31everything that you believe you know about Glinne Maxwell's sexual
- 4:35trafficking conduct, replied, I don't idea two seventy eight. He
- 4:39confirmed that he had no knowledge about Miss Maxwell's sexually
- 4:43trafficking anybody. Detective Roccary also has no knowledge of Plaintiff's
- 4:48conduct that is subject of this lawsuit. Reply, Plaintiff offers
- 4:53several misleading contrary facts, none of which actually address the
- 4:57facts presented herein namely, whether missis Maxwell was ever mentioned
- 5:01by any of Epstein's alleged victims, whether she was the
- 5:04target of their investigation, and whether any of her property
- 5:08was seized from Epstein's home. Plaintiff cites to numerous inadmissible
- 5:12pieces of evidence on facts other than those. Mister Rodriguez,
- 5:17a convicted felon for obstructing justice related to the Epstein case,
- 5:21is dead and his deposition testimony is the subject of
- 5:24emotion in le mean because Miss Maxwell has never had
- 5:28the opportunity to cross examine them Document five point sixty
- 5:32seven at fourteen. Miss Rebello, likewise, is not a witness
- 5:36who has been deposed in this case, and therefore her
- 5:39testimony is not admissible against Miss Maxwell. The message bads
- 5:43are not authenticated by anyone, as will be the subject
- 5:47of a forthcoming motion in le mean and there is
- 5:50not one shred of evidence that any child pornography, as
- 5:54opposed to a topless photo of a very adult Miss
- 5:57Maxwell wherever found in Epstein's home. The fact should be
- 6:01deemed admitted, as those proffered by defendant are based on
- 6:05admissible evidence. Number forty nine undisputed fact forty nine No
- 6:10nude photograph of plaintiff was displayed in Epstein's home. Epstein's housekeeper,
- 6:14Juana Lessi, never saw any photographs of Virginia Roberts in
- 6:19mister Epstein's house. Detective Raccari entered Epstein's home in two
- 6:23thousand and two to install security cameras to catch a
- 6:26thief and did not observe any child pornography within the home,
- 6:30including on Epstein's desk in his office. Reply, Plaintiff offered
- 6:36no evidence that a nude photograph of her was displayed
- 6:39in Epstein's home. All of the testimony she submits has
- 6:43nothing to do with the nude photograph of herself. The
- 6:46fact should be deemed admitted. Fifty undisputed fact fifty. Plaintiff
- 6:51intentionally destroyed her journal and dream journal regarding her memories
- 6:55of this case. In twenty eleven, while represented by Council,
- 6:59Plaintiff after a journal describing individuals to whom she claimed
- 7:03she was sexually trafficked, as well as her memories and
- 7:06thoughts about her experiences with Epstein. In twenty thirteen, she
- 7:11and her husband created a bonfire in her backyard in
- 7:14Florida and burned the journal, together with other documents in
- 7:18her possession. Plaintiff also kept a dream journal regarding her
- 7:22thoughts and memories that she possessed in January twenty sixteen.
- 7:28To date, plaintiff cannot locate the dream journal. Reply Plaintiff
- 7:32offers no contrary admissible evidence regarding her destruction of her journal,
- 7:37and it should be deemed admitted. Fifty one undisputed fact
- 7:41Number fifty one. Plaintiff publicly peddled her story Beginning in
- 7:45two thousand and one. Plaintiff granted journalist Sharon Churchier extensive
- 7:50interviews that resulted in seven widely distributed articles. From March
- 7:54twenty eleven through January twenty fifteen, Churcher regularly commute municated
- 8:00with plaintiff under attorneys or other agents. From early twenty
- 8:04eleven to the present day. Plaintiff received approximately one hundred
- 8:08and sixty thousand dollars for her stories and pictures that
- 8:11were published by many news organizations. Reply, Plaintiff offers no
- 8:17evidence to contradict the facts asserted, and they should therefore
- 8:21be deemed admitted. Plaintiff's unsupported spin of those facts should
- 8:26be stricken undisputed. Fact fifty two Plaintiff drafted a one
- 8:31hundred and forty four page purportedly autobiographical book manuscript in
- 8:36twenty eleven, which she actively sought to publish. In twenty eleven,
- 8:41contemporaneous with her Churcher interviews, Plaintiff drafted a book manuscript
- 8:46which purported to document Plaintiff's experiences as a teenager in Florida,
- 8:51including her interactions with Epstein and Maxwell. Plaintiff communicated with
- 8:56literary agents, ghostwriters, and potential independent blas publishers in an
- 9:01effort to get her book published. She generated marketing materials
- 9:04and circulated those, along with book chapters, to numerous individuals
- 9:09associated with publishing and the media. Reply Plaintiff sites in
- 9:14admissible evidence and attorney argument in contradiction of these facts.
- 9:18They should be ignored. The victim notification letter is inadmissible
- 9:22hearsay the psychologist's record likewise or inadmissible hearsay. The FBI
- 9:28interview is inadmissible hearsay. Plaintiff's council then flatly misrepresents to
- 9:33the court her own client's characterizations of the book manuscript,
- 9:37calling it a fictionalized account. Plaintiff, contradicting her council, testified
- 9:42that the book manuscript is ninety nine percent true. Question
- 9:46is there anything Well, first of all, did you author
- 9:49the entire manuscript? Answer? Yes, I did. Question did anyone
- 9:53else author a part of that manuscript? Answer? Do you
- 9:56mean did anyone else write this with me? Question? Right? Answer? No, question,
- 10:01that's all you're writing. Answer this is my writing. Question, okay,
- 10:05to the best of your recollection as you sit here today.
- 10:09Is there anything in that manuscript about Glainne Maxwell that
- 10:12is untrue? Answer? I don't believe so. Like I said,
- 10:16there is a lot of stuff that I actually left
- 10:18out of here. Question mm hmm. Answer, so there is
- 10:22a lot more information I could put in there, but
- 10:25as far as Galainne Maxwell goes, I would say that
- 10:27there is ninety nine percent of it would be the
- 10:30correct knowledge. Question all right, is there anything that you
- 10:34and I understand that you're doing this from memory. Is
- 10:36there anything that you recall as you're sitting here today
- 10:39about Glayne Maxwell that is contained in the manuscript that
- 10:42is not true? Answer? You know, I haven't read this
- 10:45in a very long time. I don't believe that there's
- 10:48anything in there about Glayne Maxwell that is not true.
- 10:52Plaintiff clearly now would like to spin the book manuscript
- 10:55as fictionalized, because she is well aware that the facts
- 10:58presented by her in that manuscript are contradicted by many
- 11:02other documentary and testimonial records. Yet she offers no admissible
- 11:07evidence that plaintiff intended the manuscript to be fictional. Citations
- 11:12the social scientists, who have not testified in this case
- 11:15and whose work has not been cited by any expert
- 11:18in this case is wholly improper and should be stricken.
- 11:22Number fifty three. Plaintiff publicly filed Lurid cvra Pleadings, initiated
- 11:28a media frenzy and generated highly publicized litigation between her
- 11:32lawyers and Alan Dershowitz. On December thirtieth, twenty fourteen, Plaintiff,
- 11:37through Council, publicly filed a joined her motion that contained
- 11:41her Lurid allegations about miss Maxwell and many others, including
- 11:45Alan Dershowitz, Prince Andrew, and Jean Luke Brunel. The joint
- 11:49her motion was followed by a corrected motion and two
- 11:53further declarations in January and February twenty fifteen, which repeated
- 11:59many of Plaintiff's climas. These CVRA pleadings generated a media
- 12:03maelstrom and spawned highly publicized litigation between plaintiff's lawyers Edwards
- 12:08En Cassel, and Alan Dershowitz. After plaintiff publicly alleged mister
- 12:13Dershowitz of sexual misconduct, mister Dershowitz vigorously defended himself in
- 12:18the media. He called plaintiff a liar and accused her
- 12:21lawyers of unethical conduct. In response, attorneys Edwards and Cassel
- 12:26sued Dershowitz, who counterclaimed. This litigation in turn caused additional
- 12:31media attention by national and international media organizations. Reply, plaintiff
- 12:37offers no contrary facts and so they should be deemed admitted.
- 12:41Number fifty four undisputed Fact fifty four Plaintiff formed non
- 12:46profit victims refused silence to attract publicity and speak out
- 12:50on a public controversy. In twenty fifteen, Plaintiff, with the
- 12:54assistance of the same council, formed a nonprofit organization Victims
- 12:59Refused len According to plaintiff, the purpose of the organization
- 13:03is to promote Plaintiff's profess cause against sex slavery. The
- 13:07stated goal of her organization is to help survivors surmount
- 13:11the shame, silence, and intimidation typically experienced by victims of
- 13:16sexual abuse. Plaintiff's attempts to promote Victims Refuse Silence at
- 13:21every opportunity. For example, plaintiff participated in an interview in
- 13:26New York with ABC to promote the charity and to
- 13:29get our mission out to the public. Reply Plaintiff offers
- 13:34no contrary evidence and the facts should be deemed admitted. Two,
- 13:39the court should strike Plaintiff's statement of undisputed facts. The
- 13:42summary judgment procedure is well established. When the summary judgment
- 13:46non movement bears the burden of proof at trial, as
- 13:49in the case at Bar, the movement may show a
- 13:52prima facie entitlement for summary judgment in one of two ways.
- 13:57The movement may point to evidence that negates the non
- 14:00movement's claims, or two, the movement may identify those portions
- 14:04of its opponent's evidence that demonstrate the absence of a
- 14:08genuine issue of material fact salahudin versus Gored four sixty
- 14:13seven f Dot three D two sixty three, two seventy
- 14:17two and seventy three Second Circuit, two thousand and six.
- 14:20If the movement makes the showing in either manner, the
- 14:24burden shifts to the non movement to identify record evidence
- 14:27creating a genuine issue of material fact. Local Civil Rule
- 14:31fifty six dot one A carries out this summary judgment
- 14:34procedure by requiring the summary judgment movement to set forth
- 14:38material facts as to which she contends that there is
- 14:42no genuine issue to be tried. Subsection B of the
- 14:45rule requires the party opposing some rejudgment to set forth
- 14:49the statement of additional material facts as to which it
- 14:52is contended that there exists a genuine issue to be tried.
- 14:57Miss Maxwell has moved for some rejudgment, plaintiff has not
- 15:01as movement. Miss Maxwell is required under Local Civil Rule
- 15:05fifty six to one to enumerate the facts she is
- 15:08asserting as undisputed as the party opposing some rejudgment. Plaintiff
- 15:12is permitted if she can to introduce admissible evidence creating
- 15:17a genuine issue of material fact see fed R. Siev
- 15:21fifty six C and one. Plaintiff is confused. Plaintiff believes she,
- 15:27the party opposing some rejudgment, must enumerate facts she is
- 15:30asserting as undisputed, and so she has submitted her own
- 15:34rule fifty six to one statement of undisputed facts that
- 15:38gets a sumary judgment procedure exactly backwards. Plaintiff's undisputed facts
- 15:43are irrelevant. Plaintiff cannot avoid some rejudgment by proposing undisputed facts.
- 15:48She may only do so by creating a genuine issue
- 15:51of material fact. As to Miss Maxwell's statement of undisputed facts, Accordingly,
- 15:57this Court should strike Plaintiff's statement of under disputed facts.
- 16:01Although Miss Maxwell, as a summary judgment movement, has no
- 16:04duty to respond to plaintiffs alleged undisputed facts, we hasten
- 16:08to add that Miss Maxwell in fact opposes and disputes
- 16:12most of Plaintiff's alleged undisputed facts. For example, Defendant's undisputed
- 16:18fact forty includes the statement Miss Roberts is hired as
- 16:21a seasonal SPA attendant to work at the mar Alago
- 16:24Club in the fall of two thousand, after she had
- 16:27turned seventeen. Yet Plaintiffs sets forth in our own undisputed
- 16:31fact fifty eight that Virginia got a job at Mar
- 16:33A Lago in two thousand, either months before or just
- 16:37after her seventeenth birthday. Plaintiff has done nothing more than
- 16:41set forth her dispute with defendant undisputed fact forty as
- 16:45her own undisputed fact. It makes no sense See also
- 16:48Plaintiff's unisputed fact sixty three. The other alleged undisputed facts
- 16:53are simply Plaintiff's assertion of her deposition testimony and hearsay
- 16:57of her statements to other witnesses. Coach does undisputed facts.
- 17:02Miss Maxwell strenuously disputes almost all of the alleged undisputed facts,
- 17:07claiming that she engaged in any sort of sexual acts, misconduct,
- 17:11or communication with plaintiff or others. Indeed, over the course
- 17:15of two days and thirteen hours of deposition, Miss Maxwell
- 17:18disputed all such allegations. Because none of Plaintiff's undisputed facts
- 17:24have anything to do with the issues raised by Defendant's
- 17:27motion for some rejudgment, Miss Maxwell moves to strike plaintiff's
- 17:30statement of undisputed Facts conclusion for the foregoing reasons. Miss
- 17:35Maxwell requests that the Court deem her undisputed facts admitted,
- 17:39and that the Court strikes plaintiff statement of undisputed facts.
- 17:44This was signed on February tenth of twenty seventeen, and
- 17:47it was signed by Laura Meninger. All Right, folks, that's
- 17:51going to do it for this one. All of the
