• 25:39
  Speaker 1: time The Miss maxwell? Project is that? Correct? Groff? Correct
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: from WHAT i? Understand question and you have no information
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: about the book or its? Creation answer that is. Correct,

• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Was timmins cuts her. Off he was in jail from
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: two thousand and eight sort Of, Graff, Right so it's
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: possible between two thousand and six and two thousand and.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: EIGHT i don't recall question By, Timmins, okay but you
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: do recall specifically that when he got out of jail
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: there were no more. Massages groff correct, Question, Okay and
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: are you aware when did you read the non prosecution?
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Agreement when were you made aware of? That? ANSWER i
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: believe after he went to Jail timmins. Okay and what
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: is your current when he went to jail and got,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Out what was your understanding of the reason that he
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: went to? Jail? Graff the reason he went to jail
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: was procuring an underage prostitute or solicitation of a. Prostitute, Timmins,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: okay did you know anything surrounding the incidents that they
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: were charging him with Graff, No, timmins did you then
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: or do you? Now Graf, NO i don't know how it,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: occurred is that what you? Mean? Tim and? Sure so,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: basically he had a number of different people that were
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: procuring underage women or of age women and scheduling massages
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: and then either soliciting them by paying them extra money
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: or physically sexually assaulting them and raping. Them and someone
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: finally told, somebody and that's how he got, arrested and
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: there were issues with the, case and so he pled
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: guilty and here we. Are SO i, MEAN i would
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: imagine that his lawyers included the people that were scheduling these.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: Massages Sarah kellen was horrified that she was on there as,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: well but she acknowledged that she scheduled massages as, Well
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: so his attorneys probably included. That so what time of,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: day generally, speaking between two thousand and one and two
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: thousand and six were the massages scheduled? Generally were they
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: in the morning graff daytime? Question were they in the? Evening?
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Daytime graff? Daytime Timmin's, Okay i'm going to fast forward
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: to post twenty. Ten it seems that from twenty ten
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: really to twenty twelve, thirteen he went on a sprint
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: to find a group of women that he would leverage
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: to put in his. Service i'm going to refer to
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: them as the seven. SURVIVORS i don't really consider redacted
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: to be a. SURVIVOR i think she was elevated above
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: what she was originally brought in. For so these seven
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: survivors were brought into THE, us they were all, young
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: they were all very, attractive and they are methods of,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: control and they are tools of. Control and whether you
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: realize that you were critical to the tools and the
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: methods of control is one. Question BUT i, MEAN i
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: GUESS i just want to talk about. Them so there's credit.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Cards So epstein In Dyke well redacted would take out
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: credit cards in their. Names they would create businesses in their.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Names these seven women that were quote unquote, assistants and
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: he would then leverage their. Finances he gave him a
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: place to, stay and you were aware that they all
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: stayed in the same, house with the exception of. REDACTED
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: i asked you earlier about the pin, numbers so it's
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: my understanding that you controlled the pin numbers for the
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: doors of their. Apartments and to be very careful because
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: they did you have the ability to? Change did you ever?
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Change did you? Control did you know the codes into their?
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Apartments Miss? GROTH i never changed any, Codes. Timmins did
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: you know the codes of their? Apartments? GROTH i did
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: know the codes on the, apartments BUT i had nothing
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: to do with. Them. Timmins did you ever change the? Codes? Groff, No.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Timmins would you be surprised if there's an email from
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: you stating that you changed the? Code? Groth well maybe
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: there was something wrong with the. CODE i don't, Know. Timmins,
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: okay so you could have changed the, Codes, Groff, well
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: there were very difficult. MACHINES i don't. KNOW i never
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: went in and changed them, Myself. Timmins so you have
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: the tools of control and methods of. Control epstein would
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: tell the victims the survivors that THEIR pin number would
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: be changed if they didn't do what he. Said he
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: did not give them. Leases they were at his, benevolence
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: just yet another one of his. Methods the. Control the
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: tool was the, apartment the ability to control whether they
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: were able to go into their. Apartment and he did
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: that through. You but again you didn't. Know so, computers
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: end Phones he gave them computers and their cell, phones
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: and he told them that they were being survelled and
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: that they could do whatever they. Wanted but just know
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: that he was. Watching so does that surprise you that
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: he would say that to, Them, GROTH i did not
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: know that that's what he was telling. THEM i had
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: zero knowledge of. That all, right, folks we're gonna wrap
• 42:18
