Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 0:04In this episode, we're gonna pick right back up where
- 0:07we left off with the Galain Maxwell deposition, So let's
- 0:12get right back to it. McCauley, Is it an obvious
- 0:16lie you had sex toys in Jeffrey Epstein's pom Beach house.
- 0:20Mister Pakliuka objection to the form and the foundation. Maxwell,
- 0:25can you repeat the question, McCauley, Is it an obvious
- 0:30lie that you had sex toys in Jeffrey Epstein's pom
- 0:33Beach house. Mister Pagliuka objection to the form and the foundation. Maxwell,
- 0:40did Virginia say that? McCauley, I'm asking you a question.
- 0:44Is it an obvious lie that you had sex toys
- 0:47in Jeffrey Epstein's house? Maxwell? I don't recall any sex
- 0:51toys McCauley. If someone said you had sex toys, would
- 0:54that be an obvious lie? Mister Pagliuca objection to the
- 0:58form and the found Maxwell, Like I said, can you
- 1:03be more specific about the house or whatever? What exactly
- 1:06you are referring to? What's a sex toy? McCauley, Yes,
- 1:11How would you define a sex toy? Maxwell, No, I
- 1:14need you to define a sex toy. I don't have
- 1:16enough knowledge of sex toys. Oh yeah, I'm sure McCauley.
- 1:21I will define it based on the Dictionary's definition, which
- 1:24is an object or a device used to sexually stimulate
- 1:27or enhance sexual pleasure. Maxwell. What's your question, please, McCauley.
- 1:33The question is is it an obvious lie that you
- 1:36had sex toys in Jeffrey Epstein's Palm Beach house. Mister Pagliuca,
- 1:41Sam objection. McCauley, you can answer Maxwell like I said,
- 1:47I do not have any recollection of sex toys in
- 1:50Jeffrey's house. McCauley, is it a lie? Is it an
- 1:54obvious lie that you took pictures of nude girls? Pagliuca
- 1:59object to the full and the foundation. Maxwell. We already
- 2:04covered this girls. We are not referring to. I can
- 2:07only testify to taking pictures of adult people, and I
- 2:10already testified they are not nude per se. That every
- 2:15picture that I ever took, and which they were very limited,
- 2:18always by request the people would be covered, or it
- 2:21would be a hand or a foot. There were never
- 2:24any pictures that I took of people that would only
- 2:27have been in mainstream type of magazines, and any photos
- 2:31I took could have been very happily then expected to
- 2:34be displayed on your parent's mantlepiece or grandparents mantlepiece. Talk
- 2:39about a bunch of bs. I guess if you're taking
- 2:41pictures of naked little girls and your grandparents are you
- 2:45know Lord mount Batten and Jimmy Savell McAuley. Is it
- 2:51a lie that you approach females to bring them to
- 2:54Jeffrey Epstein? Mister Pagliuca objection to the form and the Foundation? Maxwell, Well,
- 3:00can you please ask the question again? McCauley, sure, is
- 3:04it a lie that you approach females to bring them
- 3:07to Jeffrey Epstein? Maxwell? I don't know what you're asking me, McCauley.
- 3:12I'm asking you if it's a lie that you approach
- 3:14females to bring them to Jeffrey Epstein. Mister Pagliuca objection
- 3:19to the form and the Foundation. Maxwell, you are not
- 3:23asking me a good question. Sorry, McCauley. You don't get
- 3:26to choose the questions. Maxwell. I would like to answer
- 3:30your questions, but you are not asking me a question
- 3:33that I can answer. McCauley, What about that is causing
- 3:36you pause when you can't answer the question. Maxwell, you
- 3:40are trying to trap me, and that's not fair. So
- 3:43I already testified that I hire people across the board.
- 3:46So I would hire architects, decorators, pool people, exercise instructors, gardeners,
- 3:51cook chefs, cleaning people. So I, in the course of
- 3:55a very long time, when I would hire people, I
- 3:58hired people to work for Jeffrey. Well, I'm happy to
- 4:00testify to hiring people for every possible, conceivable, proper job
- 4:05that you could conceive of within the context of Jeffrey's
- 4:08life and home. McAuley. Is it a lie that you
- 4:12approach females to bring them to Jeffrey Epstein for the
- 4:15purpose of performing massages? Mister Pagliuca, objection to the form
- 4:20and the foundation. Maxwell, Again, I have already testified to
- 4:24that part of the job that I had to hire
- 4:27lots of different types of people in terms of whatever
- 4:30very small part of my job, Jeffrey enjoyed getting massages.
- 4:34I think that is something we can all agree in
- 4:36this room, and within the context of that, very infrequently
- 4:40I would go to spas and myself happily receive a
- 4:43professional non sexual massage from a man and or from
- 4:48a woman, and if that massage was something that I
- 4:50thought was something that was good, I would ask if
- 4:52that man or woman would come back and does home visits. Yeah,
- 4:57how many men did you have running around the house there,
- 5:00Elaine Maxwell? If that person said that they did, they
- 5:03would sometimes come from time to time, but not always
- 5:07come back to the house to perform a non sexual,
- 5:09professional male or female massage. McCauley, were any of the
- 5:15exercise instructors you hired under the age of eighteen? Maxwell? Again,
- 5:20I don't hire We've already established that I don't hire people.
- 5:24I interview people to see if they are competent in
- 5:27the job that they do and or whether they are
- 5:30someone who seemed that they do home visits. At that
- 5:35point where I can think that there is somebody that
- 5:38has can either be whatever the job may be, pull gardner,
- 5:41chef and or exercise instructor, and I think that they
- 5:45could be good at whatever it is, at whatever skill
- 5:49that they had, and they did a home visit, which
- 5:52would obviously be mandatory, and mister Epstein would meet them
- 5:55and decide if you wanted to have whatever skill it
- 5:58was that he would do, and then he would then
- 6:01either have them come back or hire them. Talk about
- 6:05word salad. McCauley. Were there any exercise instructors that worked
- 6:10at the home that were under the age of eighteen?
- 6:13Mister Pagliuca objection to the form and the foundation. Maxwell, Again,
- 6:19I keep coming back to this that the people that
- 6:22I employed, or not the right word, the people I
- 6:24would meet to come and work at the house under
- 6:27any guys whatsoever. Again from any of the many positions
- 6:31that I filled, were all over We're all adults McCauley.
- 6:35When you say adults over the age of eighteen, Maxwell,
- 6:39I think we can establish what adult would be. McCauley.
- 6:43You never interviewed or I know you don't want people
- 6:46to use the word hired. Whatever your role was, you
- 6:48brought in an exercise instructor that was under the age
- 6:51of eighteen to work at the house. Mister Pagliuca object
- 6:55to the form and the foundation. Maxwell. I have already
- 7:00testified that what I was responsible for was to find
- 7:03people who had competencies in whatever area I was looking for.
- 7:07The competencies I was looking for were professional and adult McCauley.
- 7:13So there was no exercise instructor that worked at the
- 7:15Palm Beach House, or the New York House, or the
- 7:18New Mexico House or the USVII under the age of eighteen,
- 7:23Mister Pagliuca, objection to the form and the foundation. Maxwell,
- 7:27I can only testify to when I was at the house. McCauley, Yes, Maxwell,
- 7:32I can only testify to the years when I was present. McCauley, right, Maxwell,
- 7:38And I can only testify to people I personally either
- 7:41met and or work with and or invited. To find
- 7:45the correct word, I don't know what the correct word
- 7:47is to come do exercise or whatever it was at
- 7:50the house of the people that I male or female,
- 7:54that I brought were all appropriate and age appropriate adults
- 7:59McCauley over the age of eighteen. Maxwell. We've established them
- 8:03as an adults McCauley. So are you saying appropriate adults?
- 8:08So we are clear you didn't hire or bring in
- 8:11or know of any exercise instructors that were under the
- 8:14age of eighteen at any of those homes. Maxwell, I
- 8:18am also testifying that when I was present at the
- 8:21house and with the people that I brought in were
- 8:24all age appropriate adults. McCauley. How do you define age
- 8:29appropriate adults? Is that over the age of eighteen? Can
- 8:32we agree to that? Mister Pagliuca objection to the form
- 8:35and the foundation. McCauley, Are they under the age of eighteen? Maxwell?
- 8:40We already established that you can be a massuse in
- 8:43Florida at age seventeen. That does not make it inappropriate. McCauley.
- 8:48I'm not saying appropriate or inappropriate. I'm just asking if
- 8:52there were any exercise instructors that were under the age
- 8:55of eighteen. Maxwell. I am not aware if anybody was,
- 8:59but I don't want to full out and say you oh,
- 9:03she said, we already established you can be a seventeen
- 9:06year old massuse and have it not be something that
- 9:08is not appropriate. Have we really established that though? I
- 9:12mean because you say it, galein Maxwell doesn't make it true.
- 9:16How many of you out there have had a massage
- 9:18before professionally? How many of those messuses we're seventeen. No
- 9:23need to answer that question. I already know the answer.
- 9:27So when you say that and then you go, well,
- 9:30you come back and say something. Now we can establish
- 9:33that Virginia was seventeen, but you can be a seventeen
- 9:36year old legal massuse, but I am not aware. To
- 9:39your point, McCauley, who are the other seventeen year old
- 9:43messuses that you were aware of? Maxwell, I'm not aware
- 9:47of any. McCauley. Were there any sixteen year old messuses
- 9:50that you were aware of? Maxwell? I am not aware, McCauley,
- 9:55any fifteen year olds. Maxwell, I just want to be clear.
- 9:58The only person that I I'm aware of who claims
- 10:01to have been uh, we have to we establish Virginia
- 10:04now is seventeen, given she has changed her age so
- 10:07many times. The only person that I'm aware of that
- 10:10was a masseuse at the time when I was president
- 10:13in the House was Virginia McCauley. Isn't an obvious lie
- 10:17that Jeffrey Epstein had a sexual preference for underage miners?
- 10:23Pagliuka objection to the form and the foundation? Maxwell, can
- 10:27you ask the question again, McCauley, isn't an obvious lie
- 10:31that Jeffrey Epstein had a sexual preference for underage miners?
- 10:35Pagliuca objection to the form and the foundation? Maxwell, can
- 10:39you ask the question again? McCauley, Is it an obvious
- 10:43lie that Jeffrey Epstein had a sexual preference for underage miners.
- 10:47Mister Pagliuca, object to the form and the foundation. Maxwell,
- 10:52I cannot testify to what jeffreys McCauley, You don't know
- 10:55his preference. Maxwell, you had to be a stack of
- 10:59papers from the fleet reports, and that's what I've read.
- 11:02But I have no knowledge, direct knowledge of what you
- 11:04are referencing, McCauley, So you don't know. You don't know
- 11:09in your own mind that Jeffrey Epstein had a sexual
- 11:12preference for underage miners. Is that correct, mister Pagliuka, objection
- 11:17to the form and the foundation. McCauley, Is that correct? Maxwell,
- 11:23Please ask the question again, McCauley, you don't know in
- 11:26your own mind that Jeffrey Epstein had a sexual preference
- 11:29for underage miners. Mister Pagliuka, objection to the form and
- 11:34the foundation. You have to pause. Let me object answer
- 11:38the question. Listen to her question. Pause. I object. You answer, McCauley,
- 11:43So you don't know in your own mind that Jeffrey
- 11:46Epstein had a sexual preference for underage miners. Mister Pagliuka,
- 11:51objection to the form and the foundation. McCauley, you can answer, Maxwell,
- 11:57I cannot tell you what Jeffree story is. I'm not
- 11:59able to McCauley. Did Jeffrey Epstein have a scheme to
- 12:03recruit underage girls to use them for the purposes of
- 12:06sexual massages? Mister Pagliuka objection to the form and the foundation. Maxwell.
- 12:12Can you ask me again, please, McCauley. Did Jeffrey Epstein
- 12:17have a scheme to recruit underage girls to recruit them
- 12:20for sexual massages? Mister Pagliuka objection to the form and
- 12:25the foundation. Maxwell, can you ask it a different way, McCauley.
- 12:31Did Jeffrey Epstein have a scheme to recruit underage girls
- 12:34for sexual massages? Mister Pagliuca, objection to the form and
- 12:38the foundation. McCauley. If you know, Maxwell, I don't know
- 12:43what you are talking about. McCauley. Isn't an obvious lie
- 12:46that Virginia Roberts was a minor the first time she
- 12:49was taken to Jeffrey Epstein's house. Mister Pagliuca objection to
- 12:54the form and the foundation. Maxwell. So we've already established
- 12:58that Virginia was and we established that her mother brought
- 13:03her to the house, and that she came as a
- 13:05messeuse aged seventeen, which is legal in Florida. So we're
- 13:09going to wrap up right there for this part, and
- 13:11we're going to continue in the next episode with the
- 13:14next part. But imagine using this as your excuse. Oh well,
- 13:17she was seventeen, so you know, the abuse is okay,
- 13:21what a disgusting, vile individual. All of the information that
- 13:25goes with the episode can be found in the description box.
