  Speaker 1: do this, then you get that. And then she was
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: telling me, like, all this stuff. And then I was, like,

  Speaker 1: And she's like, oh, sorry. And she's laughing. And then
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the other girl starts laughing too. And then we all
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: laugh together. And then we went to TJ Maxx and
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: she got a purse. And I didn't spend any of
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: my money. I kept it in my... I wanted to
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: spend it, but I didn't want to spend it at
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: TJ Maxx. I wanted to go to the mall or something.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: So then I kept it in my house, like my
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: purse and stuff. And she gets stopped there by Bella Hovlig.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Let me stop you there. When you're in the car
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: back with Redacted going back, did you and Redacted discuss
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: doing this again so you could earn more money? Answer, yeah.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Bella Hovlich, okay. Answer, I think. She's cut off again
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: by Bella Hovlich. Then the witness cuts Bella Hovlich off.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: We had, she, she didn't plan a like certain date.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: She was just like, we didn't like plan this or like, again,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: we didn't plan it, plan it. It was just like,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: she was like, oh, well, if you ever need money again,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: you can always call me and you can come with me.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: And I said, okay. Bella Hovlich, you don't recall telling
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Detective Pagan that you made plans to do this every
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Saturday so that you could get rich? Answer, oh yeah, yeah, well,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: it wasn't like a plan plan. It was kind of
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: like an imaginary kind of every Saturday. Like, Bella Hovlich, okay.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: And just to interject here, folks, because I can't stop myself,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: can you see what Bella Hovlich's doing? Can you see
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: how Bella Hovlich turned this witness into basically a prostitute,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: a little girl? This is what I've been telling you
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: for how long? everybody's out there yelling about lists and
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: all the other bullshit, and we've been on target this
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: whole entire time, while the vast majority of other people
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: were dicking around with a bunch of stuff that doesn't
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: even matter in the grand scheme of things. Bella Hovlich,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: did you go back to Jeffrey Epstein's house to give
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: him other massages? Answer, I did not. Bella Hovlich, okay. Answer,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: when I was on the phone with the detective, we
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: pretended for redacted. because she was on the other line.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: We pretended that I was going to go back, but
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: just so she could say something, but I never did.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Bella Hovlik, okay, so you did a controlled phone call
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: with Redacted? Answer, uh-huh. Bella Hovlik trying to get her
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: to make admissions? Answer, uh-huh. Bella Hovlik, is that a yes? Answer, yeah.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Bella Hovlik, okay. All right, was there another reason you
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: sort of didn't go back? That some people might have
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: found out about it or you were talking about you? Answer. Yeah. Um,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that's what I was going to get to at school. Um,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I had like my best friend and I told her
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: in dance class cause that's my first period. And that
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: was my first period class. And like, right. When I
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: go back to school, I had the $ 300 in my
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: purse with me. And I told her like, if you
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: ever want to make 300, you can come with me
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: and redacted will take you. And I didn't say her name.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I said, like, my friend will take you and all
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you have to do is give him a massage and stuff.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And I told her what I did. I didn't tell
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: her everything. I didn't tell her the vibrator part. I
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: just left that out. But I told her everything else.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: And she kind of laughed and giggled. And she's like, OK,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I'll keep that in mind. And then, um, Bella Hovlik,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: who is this person that you told? Answer redacted and redacted. Well,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: she was in the conversation, but she's like, didn't say
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: anything to anybody. Bella Hovlich, redacted? Answer, redacted. She didn't
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: say anything at first until everybody else found out. And then, well,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: after I told redacted, the rest of the day goes by.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: And she was telling people and, like, telling everybody in school.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: And then I was like, I saw her in my
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: gym class that same day, and I just confronted her.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, well, why are you telling people? And
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: that's kind of my business. And I kind of told
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: you to be nice and not to like go around
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: telling people you're supposed to be my best friend. And
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: then she just laughed about it. So then we got
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: an altercation in the gym room. Bella Hovlich, was that
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a fight? Answer, yes. Bella Hovlich, you had a fight. Answer, I,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: we got into a fight. And that's when I was
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: had to go to the principal's office and told the
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: lady that she why we got into the fight with me.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: And I told her why she, why we, got into
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: the fight. And I kind of, we at first, we both,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: kind of lied about why, cuz, or I did. And then,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and then I just told the principal she was spreading
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: rumors about me. And then redacted, I guess, told the
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: principal why, like, for real. And so then the principal,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: when I had to go in the room, she was like,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: let me see in your purse. And I said, why?
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: And she's like, ask me if I had any money.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: And I said, no, I don't have any money on me.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: And then she said, like, you don't have to lie.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: You're not going to be in trouble. Give me your purse.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: And then I gave her my purse and she found
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the 300 and she asked me how I got it.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: And I said, I worked at Redacted because at the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: time I really did work at Redacted. And to this,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: she's interrupted by Bela Hovlik. And why'd you lie to
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the assistant principal? Witness, cause I didn't think it was
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: like any of her business. Like, why are we arguing
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: or anything? And I thought, why would I tell on
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: myself if she doesn't really know anything? But then she
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: really did know cause redacted told her. And then she,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: after she showed, like after she took my purse and
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: she looked at the 300 and she didn't believe what
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I said, like at all. And I just kept lying and, like, saying, no,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I got it from Redacted. My work, my work. And
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: then she said, you don't have to lie. I know
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: what happened. And she called my stepmom. And my stepmom
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: came to the school. And my stepmom said, like, you
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: didn't get $ 300 from your paycheck. You're lying. And then
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: that's when, like, I don't know. Everything kind of came out.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: And then I... She's interrupted by Bella Hovlich here. You
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: didn't tell your parents at first, so did you lie
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to them too? Answer. I said I was doing drugs
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and I was dealing them like I made up any
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: kind of lie. I didn't want to tell them what happened. Answer.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Did there come a time when Detective Pagan got some
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: messages on your phone? Answer from Bella Hovlich from Redacted. Answer. Redacted. Yeah, she. Oh, well,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: after that whole thing, my cell phone was taken away.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: So she had my cell phone from that day until
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I moved to Redacted. And she, like my mom, I
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: think she still has it, or the court or whatever

• 7:46
  Speaker 1: specific or whatever, it was because of that, but it
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: was also because I had a lot of family, like,

  Speaker 1: getting along problems. Like, I argued with my parents a lot.
• 7:54

  Speaker 1: to go back to Jeffrey Epstein's house in April of 2005? Answer.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Not when I was with her. Maybe on a phone
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: conversation like with the detective, but not ever when I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: was with her. Question from Bella Hovlich. Did you ever
• 11:42

• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I really don't think so. Bela Hovlik, okay, all right.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: At this point, I'm going to ask the grand jurors
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: if they have any questions for you. Answer, okay. All right,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: we're going to wrap up this episode right here. And
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: in the next episode, we're going to pick up with
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the grand jurors and their line of questioning. All of
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: the information that goes with this episode can be found
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: in the description box. What's up everyone and welcome back
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode we're picking up
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: where we left off with the Jeffrey Epstein grand jury
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: documents from Palm Beach. Juror, where do you live now? Witness,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I live in Redacted. Juror, where? Witness, Redacted. Juror, did
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: you say that before you lived up in Redacted? Witness, yes,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I moved to Redacted in July with my mother. Bella
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Hovlik interjects, your mother... Your stepmother and your father sent
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: you up there to get away from the activities down here? Witness? No,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: I moved with my mom. When I was with my dad,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: like after this all happened, my mom and dad were
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: arguing and I didn't like my dad anymore. And I
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: just felt like living back with my mom. So then
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I moved in with my mom. And that's when I
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: went to the family center. Like redacted is what it's called.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: And then after that, my mom had planned on moving
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: to redacted. She's been planning for like two years before
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: any of this happened. And then they finally found a
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: house and redacted. So we moved and I move with them. Juror,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: do you have any idea deep down inside of you
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: that you what you're doing is wrong? Witness. Yeah, I did. Juror. Oh,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: do you have you witness? Oh, I cut off by
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: the juror. Have you set the goals of to not
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: do it anymore? Witness. Yes, I don't. I haven't talked
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: to any of those people since that day. Juror, and
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: you're well aware that what you're doing to your own reputation.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: The witness, yes, I do. And this part right here,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: this exchange, is absolutely wild. Bela Hovlik should be held accountable,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: and I mean yesterday. Bela Hovlik, you aware that you
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: committed a crime? Witness, now I am. I didn't know
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: it was a crime when I was doing it. Like,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Now I guess it's prostitution or something
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: like that. Let's be very, very clear, okay? A child
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: can't be a prostitute. So this whole entire line of questioning,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: this whole entire bullshit nonsense that we see from Bella
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Hovlich is nothing but garbage. And she's doing this to
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: protect Jeffrey Epstein. Does anyone have any doubt? And now
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: especially go back and think about the NPA document that
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: we read and how much bullshit that was. Oh yeah,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: the OIG didn't find anything wrong with any of this.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Give me a break. It was all to protect their asset,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein. And by the way, he wasn't Mossad, okay?
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Go and stuff that bullshit too. The dude was an asset.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: That means he was a free agent working for intelligence
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: agencies all over the place, including the Mossad, but he
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: wasn't a Mossad agent. Get that through your skulls. Bela Havlik,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: any other questions? The juror, one more. You said you
• 14:46
