The two-page flight log exhibit, if we 4 look at January 22nd, 2001, and also 5 December 14th, 2000, can you look at those, and 6 I'll ask a question. 7 A. Sure. Give me the dates again. 8 January 16? 9 Q. Where it has the departing airport code 10 and -- 11 A. Yeah. 12 Q. -- where she's landing. 13 A. Right. 14 Q. TIST is the code for Virgin Islands, 15 correct? 16 A. I have no idea. Been to the Virgin 17 Islands once that I remember. 18 Q. You have been to Jeffrey Epstein's home on 19 the Virgin Islands, haven't you? 20 MR. SCOTT: He's already answered that. 21 A. I was with my wife and my daughter and 22 Professor -- 23 BY MR.

So I was never on the 6 island during the period of time that Jeffrey 7 Epstein knew 8 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Go ahead. 9 BY MR. EDWARDS: 10 Q. My question was, how did you get to the 11 island? 12 A. Jeffrey Epstein sent a one-engine, small 13 plane with a 70-year-old pilot for me, my wife and 14 my daughter, and I regret to this day ever getting 15 on that plane. Flew us from Guadalupe to the Virgin 16 Islands, where I was picked up by a boat and taken 17 to Jeffrey Epstein's island where we had dinner with 18 Michael Porter and his wife and family and my wife 19 and my daughter, and stayed, as far as we remember, 20 for one night and left the next day. 21 Q. How did you get to Guadalupe? 22 A. Jeffrey Epstein flew us from Charleston, 23 South Carolina, where we were visiting Caroline, my 24 wife's mother, on an airplane that had a bathroom 25 that had only a little curtain. That's all I EFTA01137836
Sivu 44 / 187
Page 505 1 remember about it. 2 Q. What was the date of that trip that you're 3 describing that you took Jeffrey Epstein's island? 4 MR. SCOTT: If you know. 5 A. It was six months or eight months before 6 she ever met Jeffrey Epstein, so it would be 7 Christmas, around Christmastime, around Christmas 8 vacation of the year 1998, to my recollection. But 9 I would have to check. 10 When it is she met Jeffrey Epstein in that 11 summer, it was the winter before that. That's the 12 only time I've ever been on the island, so her 13 statement that she had sex with me on the island is 14 totally, categorically made up. 15 BY MR. EDWARDS: 16 Q. My question is, where is the flight log of 17 that trip that you just described? 18 A. Neither flight -- neither flight was on 19 Jeffrey Epstein's airplane. The flight that we went 20 from Charleston to Guadalupe, somebody owed Jeffrey 21 Epstein several hours on an airplane, so Jeffrey 22 borrowed his Learjet, it was a Learjet, borrowed his 23 Learjet, two or three hours on the Learjet because 24 it would have taken us ten hours to fly from 25 Charleston to Atlanta, Atlanta to Puerto Rico and EFTA01137837

Page 506 1 Miami, and Miami or Puerto Rico to Guadalupe. 2 So Jeffrey offered to use the credit he 3 had with someone else on a Learjet to fly us to 4 Guadalupe, and then used -- then rented -- it was 5 $1,200, I remember seeing the bill, to fly the small 6 airplane from Guadalupe. He was anxious for us to 7 see his newly bought -- relatively newly bought 8 island, and so we went there with my daughter and we 9 dug around in the sand and we had dinner with the 10 various professors and that. Then we left. 11 Q. So there are no flight manifests -- 12 A. I have no idea. 13 Q. -- for the trip that you just described? 14 A. I have no idea. There probably are, 15 probably on the Learjet is probably the manifest. 16 Q. In fact, in the statements that the flight 17 manifests will conclusively and demonstratively 18 exonerate you -- 19 A. That's true. 20 Q. -- where can we get the full flight 21 manifests so that we can review and make that 22 determination for ourselves? Do you know? 23 A. I assume -- 24 MR. INDYKE: Objection. 25 EFTA01137838

Page 507 1 BY MR. EDWARDS: 2 Q. What we have here -- 3 MR. INDYKE: Attorney-client, work product 4 and common interests. 5 BY MR. EDWARDS: 6 Q. What we have here is only the fraction of 7 flights where Dave Rogers was one of the pilots. 8 Can you help us get the flight logs from Larry 9 Visosky, Larry Morrison, any of the flight logs from 10 the helicopters, et cetera? 11 A. I would love to. It would all show that I 12 wasn't on the plane. 13 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 14 instruction. 15 A. I will do everything in my power -- 16 MR. SCOTT: You can make any request you 17 want to through counsel, and we'll take them 18 up. 19 A. But I will do everything in my power to 20 get you every flight manifest. 21 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Move forward. 22 MR. INDYKE: We do not waive any 23 objection. 24 MR. SCAROLA: And that request has been 25 made. EFTA01137839

BY MR. EDWARDS: Q. Was lying when she says that she was taken to Jeffrey Epstein's home in New York while underage? A. I have no idea. MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same instruction. BY MR. EDWARDS: Q. Was lying when she says she was taken to Jeffrey Epstein's ranch in New Mexico while MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same instruction. A. I can tell you this. She's lying when she said she met me at the ranch. So I cannot believe anything she says about the ranch. BY MR. EDWARDS: Q. Was she lying when she says Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein used sex toys on her when she was underage? MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same EFTA01137840

Page 509 1 instruction. 2 BY MR. EDWARDS: 3 Q. Was she lying when she says Jeffrey 4 Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell made her dress up in 5 outfits for them? 6 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 7 instruction. 8 A. Well, I can -- but I do have some material 9 outside of the record on that. 10 BY MR. EDWARDS: 11 Q. Okay. 12 A. I know that Sigrid McCawley said that she 13 said that Leslie Wexner made her dress up -- 14 MS. McCAWLEY: I am going to object to the 15 extent that you are trying to reveal 16 conversations that were part of a settlement 17 discussion which the judge has already sealed 18 the record on and there is a pending motion for 19 sanctions. And if you're going to start 20 revealing that information, we're going 21 directly to the Judge Lynch. 22 A. I am going to start revealing 23 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: No, I'm going to 24 stop you -- 25 THE WITNESS: Let me tell you why. EFTA01137841
Sivu 49 / 187
Page 510 1 Because I didn't get that from Sigrid or from 2 David Boise. I got it from Leslie Wexner's 3 lawyer in a totally nonprivileged 4 communication. 5 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Let me stop you. 6 I don't believe it's responsive to the question 7 that's pending, so let's move forward. 8 BY MR. EDWARDS: 9 Q. My question was, was she lying -- was 10 lying when she says Jeffrey Epstein 11 and Ghislaine Maxwell made her dress up in outfits 12 for them? 13 A. I can only say that that allegation has 14 been made regarding Leslie Wexner as well. 15 Q. It has nothing to do with my question. 16 MR. SCAROLA: Move to strike. 17 A. Leslie Wexner's lawyer regards that as a 18 full statement and, therefore, I can only assume 19 that it's a false statement when made about someone 20 else. I think that's relevant. 21 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: So with respect 22 to the -- 23 MR. EDWARDS: I'm moving to strike the 24 nonresponsive portion of that answer. 25 THE WITNESS: He opened the door. EFTA01137842
Sivu 50 / 187
Page 511 1 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: I do believe it 2 was nonresponsive in its entirety. Move 3 forward. Go ahead. 4 BY MR. EDWARDS: 5 Q. Do you know Jean-Luc Brunel? 6 A. No. 7 Q. Have you ever met him? 8 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 9 instruction. 10 A. I have no memory of ever meeting a man by 11 that name. 12 BY MR. EDWARDS: 13 Q. Do you know what his role was in Jeffrey 14 Epstein's life? 15 A. No. 16 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 17 instruction. Mr. Dershowitz, if you would let 18 me make my objections before you respond. 19 THE WITNESS: Right. 20 BY MR. EDWARDS: 21 Q. Was lying when she said 22 Jeffrey Epstein socialized with Bill Clinton during 23 the relevant time period? 24 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 25 instructions. EFTA01137843
Sivu 51 / 187
Page 512 1 A. My information is that 2 was lying when she said that she saw Bill Clinton on 3 Jeffrey Epstein's island. That's all I can comment 4 about with that. And she's lying about that. And 5 she's lying about how Bill Clinton got to the 6 island. 7 MR. EDWARDS: I move to strike the 8 Nonresponsive portion of the answer. 9 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: No, it's 10 relevant to what you asked. Move forward. I'm 11 not going to strike it. 12 BY MR. EDWARDS: 13 Q. I'm going to go back to the question until 14 I get an answer, though. 15 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Go ahead. 16 BY MR. EDWARDS: 17 Q. That is, when said that 18 during the relevant time period, which we defined as 19 1999 through 2002 -- 20 A. Let's be clear. Around August of both of 21 those years, right? 22 Q. I think August of '99 through October of 23 2002. 24 A. September, I think it is. 25 Q. Okay. Was she lying -- was EFTA01137844
Sivu 52 / 187
Page 513 1 lying when she said Jeffrey Epstein 2 socialized with Bill Clinton during that time 3 period? 4 A. I don't know. 5 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 6 instruction. 7 BY MR. EDWARDS: 8 Q. And you have no nonprivileged information 9 that would provide you the answer to that? 10 A. I have nonprivileged information that 11 provides me that they socialized together at some 12 point. I don't know whether it was within that 13 timeframe at all. I know they went to Africa 14 together on a mission of goodwill, but I don't know 15 the date of that. So I can't tell you whether it 16 was in the period or outside the period. You may 17 know that; I don't. 18 Q. Well, if Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton 19 associated, but only at some time period either 20 before or after the relevant time period, it would 21 immediately disprove her statement that Bill Clinton 22 and Jeffrey Epstein socialized during that time 23 period? 24 A. I don't understand that question. 25 Q. No? EFTA01137845
Sivu 53 / 187
Page 514 1 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: I don't 2 understand the question either. If you can 3 rephrase the question, that would be helpful. 4 MR. EDWARDS: Sure. 5 BY MR. EDWARDS: 6 Q. If you -- do you know from nonprivileged 7 information whether Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton 8 ever socialized? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Do you know the beginning -- when their 11 relationship began? 12 MR. INDYKE: Objection. Same objection, 13 same instruction. 14 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Again, under 15 nonprivileged. 16 MR. EDWARDS: Under nonprivileged 17 information. 18 MR. SCOTT: Do you have any nonprivileged 19 information about that? 20 A. I remember having dinner at the home of 21 Caroline Kennedy and Ed Schlossberg with President 22 Clinton, and he basically asked me how Jeffrey was 23 doing, and led me to believe that he had some 24 relationship with Jeffrey. I don't remember whether 25 that dinner -- when that dinner was. I can probably EFTA01137846
Sivu 54 / 187
Page 515 1 find out. But that would be nonprivileged. 2 BY MR. EDWARDS: 3 Q. Was he still President at the time that 4 conversation was taking place? 5 A. I don't remember. 6 Q. Have you ever been, yourself, together 7 with Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton? 8 A No 9 Q. Have you ever talked to Jeffrey Epstein 10 about Bill Clinton? 11 MR. INDYKE: Objection. Same objection, 12 same instruction. 13 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Nonprivileged. 14 MR. EDWARDS: Yeah, nonprivileged. 15 A. It's hard to sort out the privileged and 16 the nonprivileged. 17 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: So based upon 18 the objection, I would ask that you -- unless 19 it's obvious, then no, until we sort that out. 20 A. I shouldn't answer that probably. 21 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: I'm going to 22 grant his objection at this point, again, as a 23 continuum because I want to make sure that we 24 preserve this issue for later on. 25 EFTA01137847

Page 516 1 BY MR. EDWARDS: 2 Q. In a previous -- previously in this 3 deposition, you indicated your representation of 4 Jeffrey Epstein on this subject matter began in 5 2005, right? 6 A. It began, I think I said, when the first 7 allegations were. I don't have an exact date in 8 mind. 9 Q. The relevant time period for 10 as we've defined, is 1999 through 2002. 11 A. That's correct, yes. 12 Q So I'm asking if you know from Jeffrey 13 Epstein, in a time period prior to your 14 representation, whether he was socializing with Bill 15 Clinton. 16 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 17 instruction. 18 A. Yes, yes. 19 MR. SCOTT: As long as it's a 20 nonprivileged situation. 21 A. He was. 22 BY MR. EDWARDS: 23 Q. He was? 24 A. He was. 25 Q. So prior EFTA01137848
Sivu 56 / 187
Page 517 1 A. During the whole period of time up through 2 2005, you're saying? Yes. 3 Q. Right. 4 A. Yes, I think this dinner occurred before 5 2005, so I would -- yes. 6 Q. So what did Jeffrey Epstein tell you about 7 his relationship with Bill Clinton? 8 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 9 instruction. 10 BY MR. EDWARDS: 11 Q. Prior to 2005, obviously. 12 A. That they knew each other and that they 13 were doing some charitable work together. 14 Q. Had Bill Clinton ever been to Jeffrey 15 Epstein's home? 16 A. I'm not aware. 17 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 18 instruction. 19 BY MR. EDWARDS: 20 Q. What kind of charitable work was Jeffrey 21 Epstein -- 22 A. I can tell you Donald Trump has been to 23 Jeffrey Epstein's home, and I've seen him there. 24 Q. Okay. What question do you think that 25 you're answering? EFTA01137849
Sivu 57 / 187
Page 518 1 A. Well, you're asking about general things 2 people -- 3 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Let's move 4 forward. 5 A. -- so I mean, I gave you an example of one 6 who has been there. 7 BY MR. EDWARDS: 8 Q. Okay. I'm specifically talking about 9 when -- we started with was Virginia lying when she 10 said that Jeffrey Epstein socialized with Bill 11 Clinton during the relevant time period. And now 12 I'm drilling it. 13 A. I don't know the answer to that. 14 Q. Okay. Did you understand -- did Bill 15 Clinton travel with Jeffrey Epstein? 16 A. My understanding from newspaper -- 17 MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same 18 instruction. 19 A. My understanding from newspaper accounts 20 is that they went to Africa together with some other 21 famous people, and I think maybe went to Asia 22 together as well. So the answer is yes, I am aware 23 through nonprivileged sources that they traveled 24 together, yes. 25 MR. SCOTT: Can we take a break in a few EFTA01137850

EDWARDS: Maybe 15 minutes and we'll switch topics, and we can take a break. Good, Tom? MR. SCOTT: Yes. MR. EDWARDS: Okay. BY MR. EDWARDS: Q. Was lying when she says she was introduced to Prince Andrew through Jeffrey Epstein? and MR. INDYKE: Same objection, same instruction. SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Under non-privileged information. A. I have seen a photograph of Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell. I have 22 myself met Prince Andrew. He came to my class at 23 Harvard Law School and there was a dinner for him, 24 and he asked about Jeffrey Epstein. We discussed 25 Jeffrey Epstein. EFTA01137851

SCAROLA: It was. 7 MR. EDWARDS: I think it was, too. 8 MR. SCOTT: It was. 9 BY MR. EDWARDS: 10 Q. So you're familiar with this photograph? 11 A. Yes, and I'm also familiar there's no 12 comparable photograph with me in it. 13 Q. Okay. 14 MR. SCAROLA: That's not responsive. 15 SPECIAL MASTER POZZUOLI: Move forward. 16 MR. SCAROLA: Move to strike. 17 BY MR. EDWARDS: 18 Q. And in this photograph, this is Prince 19 Andrew over here on the left? 20 A. That's true, yeah. 21 Q. And this is in the 22 middle? 23 A.

On the basis of newspaper accounts, it is 17 reported that she is I wouldn't 18 be able -- if you had shown me that picture a year 19 and 16 days ago, I would not have been able to tell 20 you that that's because I didn't 21 know who she was. 22 Q.
