So, would it be a fair statement to say that you coerced her into going back? A. Yes. Q. Now, why would you coerce a friend of yours to go back? A. Well, when you're -- at that time I was 14. And when you're 14 and you're poor, a young lady is going to do anything for money especially when you're intimidated by a man who lives in an island that was highly, highly known of. And i was very intimidated by Jeffrey, and he always wanted me to bring girls. And he told me, make sure you have a girl for me. So, at that time, I would only, at that specific time i would only have Q. Had you been brought up with any kind of moral upbringing from your parents? A. Yes. Q.

Now, there are a number of other people who in the first deposition you said you had contact with in the past.
