A. 
-- name familiar to me. 
6 
Either they came one time, one day and they

familiar to me.

In Ms. Maxwell's closet.

And that was in the master bedroom?

Q. 
Or off the master bathroom? 
4 
A. 
Her bathroom. 
5 
Q. 
Huh? 
6 
A. 
Her bathroom. 
7 
Q. 
And the closet was -- the entrance to the 
8 
closet was in her bathroom? 
9 
A. 
That's correct. 
10 
Q. 
And it was a portable basket, she could move 
11 
it around, correct? 
12 
A. 
Uh-huh. 
13 
Q. 
You have to say yes or no. 
14 
A. 
Yes, sir. 
15 
Q. 
And -- and that's where the, I think you used 
16 
the word dildo, correct? That's where they were 
17 
located? 
18 
A. 
Yes, sir. 
19 
Q. 
Was there occasions where you would -- the 
20 
dildo, one or more dildos would be out and you would 
21 
clean them up after a massage that only Mr. Epstein had, 
22 
not Ms. Maxwell? 
23 
A. 
It was -- I will says that it was about three 
24 
or four occasions that I had to take this dildos and put 
25 
it back where they supposed to be. And I took it with

gloves and towels and stick it in the sink and throw it 
2 
in there. 
3 
Sometimes Ms. Maxwell will have a massage. 
4 
And sometimes I find it after she's supposed to have a 
5 
massage, those things. And also when Mr. Epstein had 
6 
the massage. So I don't know who use it on who. 
7 
Because sometimes they all disappear up there, 
8 
Mr. Epstein, Ms. Maxwell and whoever was up there. 
9 
Q. 
So as I understand it, you couldn't isolate a 
10 
particular instant where --
11 
A. 
I cannot. 
12 
Q. 
-- Ms. Maxwell wasn't there, only Mr. Epstein 
13 
had gotten a massage and then you found the sex toys? 
14 
A. 
I cannot isolate that. 
15 
Q. 
But it's possible that either Mr. Epstein used 
16 
it or Ms. Maxwell used it; is that correct? 
17 
MR. CRITTON: Form. Form. 
18 
THE WITNESS: I have no idea to know. 
19 
MR. MERMELSTEIN: All right. I have nothing 
20 
further. 
21 
MR. BERGER: How about if we take a break? 
22 
Would you like a break for a couple minutes? 
23 
THE WITNESS: No, that's fine. 
24 
MR. BERGER: Mr. Willits, would it be possible

6 
Q. 
Okay. Good afternoon, sir. 
7 
A. 
Afternoon, sir. 
8 
Q. 
My name is William J. Berger and I represent 
9 
three of the Plaintiffs in this case. 
10 
Did you ever hear of the name I., a young 
11 
woman named I.? 
12 
A. 
No, sir. 
13 
Q. 
How about a young woman named II? 
14 
A. 
No, sir. 
15 
Q. 
Okay. You know, you've referred several times 
16 
to a falling out or a disagreement that you had with 
17 
Mr. Epstein? 
18 
A. 
Yes. 
19 
Q. 
Was that in 
was that the year that you left 
20 
his employment?

A. 
Right after 
right after I left. 
22 
Q. 
So you had a falling out with him after you 
23 
left his employment? 
24 
A. 
Yes.

Well, why did you leave his employment?

Page 126 
A. 
Why? 
2 
Q. 
Yeah. 
3 
A. 
Because I was sick. I was extremely sick. I 
4 
was bleeding, internally bleeding, and I was bleeding 
5 
from my butt and I have fistulas in my colon. And I was 
6 
sick of the job and we had enough. We had good pay, but 
7 
we had enough of the job, especially laersasia-af 
8 
Ms. Maxwell's attitude towards us. 
9 
Q. 
Now, you said you had good pay, but we had 
10 
enough. What was your pay in 2002? 
11 
A. 
2002, right before I left? I think it was 50, 
12 
either 55, something like that. And my wife was 30 or 
13 
35. I could be wrong. 
14 
Q. 
So you think that you were paid $55,000 in 
15 
2002? 
16 
A. 
Uh-huh. 
17 
Q. 
Is that correct? 
18 
A. 
That's correct. 
19 
Q. 
And you believe your wife was paid how much? 
20 
A. 
Thirty, $30,000. 
21 
Q. 
$30,000 in 2002? 
22 
A. 
Uh-huh. 
23 
Q. 
Is that correct? 
24 
A. 
Yes, sir. 
25 
Q. 
How about 2001, what was your salary and your

wife's? 
2 
A. 
Same thing. 
3 
Q. 
Okay. And in 2000? 
4 
A. 
I was at the same. It never -- we never got 
5 
raises. We never got 
6 
Q. 
I think you said at the very beginning --
7 
A. 
Yes. 
8 
Q. 
-- of the deposition that you were paid 45,000 
9 
when you were first hired full time? 
10 
A. 
Yeah. 
11 
Q. 
In 2002, you were earning 55,000? 
12 
A. 
Uh-huh. 
13 
Q. 
So you did get some raise? 
14 
A. 
Yeah. In the matter of 11 years. Yeah, but 
15 
we didn't get a raise every six months or every year in 
16 
any specific date. And the raises were set by the 
17 
company. Automatically they would come from New York. 
18 
It was not a negotiate point between me and Mr. Epstein. 
19 
Q. 
And then you said earlier with me, you said we 
20 
had enough, you and your wife. You said, we had enough; 
21 
is that correct? 
22 
A. 
That's correct. 
23 
Q. 
What do you mean by that? 
24 
A. 
It was extremely stressful job. It was a lot 
25 
of pressure on us -- on me, on me -- I have to

correct -- on me. Everything was blamed on me. If a 
2 
chef cook a bad meal, it was my fault. And if the table 
3 
was not proper set royalty style, it was my fault. And 
4 
the hours were terrible, never have a holiday, Saturdays 
5 
and Sundays. We were working between 60 and 70 hours a 
6 
week. And my health was, I think, the most important 
7 
thing. And also the relation with my wife, it was a big 
8 
factor in us leaving the company. 
9 
Q. 
Now, you said that you were blamed for things? 
10 
A. 
Yes, sir. 
11 
Q. 
Who would blame you? Who is it that would say 
12 
that you were blamed? 
13 
A. 
I don't know who did the blaming, but I will 
14 
get my ass chewed out by Ms. Maxwell --
15 
Q. 
She was the one? 
16 
A. 
Most of the times, yes. 
17 
Q. 
Who else did that? 
18 
A. 
Sometimes I had disagreements with him. 
19 
Q. 
"Him," being, who? 
20 
A. 
Mr. Epstein. 
21 
Q. 
About what? 
22 
A. 
Simple things. For me, it's stupid things, 
23 
nothing -- if this paper -- if this pencil was not put 
24 
in right there, they will complain. 
25 
Q. 
Okay. And is it correct that you left the

employment of Mr. Epstein in December of 2002? Does 
2 
that sound correct? 
3 
A. 
That's correct. 
4 
Q. 
And the -- now, were you arrested in 2003? 
5 
A. 
I was never arrested.

Q. 
You did speak to the police? 
7 
A. 
Yes.

Q. 
And you did have your statement taken at the

10 
A. 
Yes.

A.

though, correct?

Q.

correct? 
20

That's correct. 
21 
Q. 
Is that the transcript of the sworn statement 
22 
that you gave to the Assistant State Attorney in 2005? 
23 
A. 
Yes, sir. 
24 
Q. 
And during the lunch break, did you have an 
25 
opportunity to read it? 
MR. CRITTON: It's Exhibit 2 now?

consecutively?

oath when you gave that statement?

A. 
Yes, sir.

Q. 
And is everything that you say in here

Q. 
Okay. Now, in connection with the incident in 
9 
October of 2003 involving Mr. Epstein's house and your 
10 
entering his house, that incident? 
11 
A. 
It was in October 2003? 
12 
Q. 
When do you remember that it was? 
13 
A. 
I can't remember. 
14 
Q. 
Okay. All right. You spoke with police 
15 
officers in connection with that though, correct? 
16 
A. 
I went to the Palm Beach Police Department. 
17 
Q. 
Why did you go to the --
18 
A. 
I speak to one officer. 
19 
Q. 
And why did you go there? 
20 
A. 
Because Mr. -- when I spoke to Mr. Epstein and 
21 
we settle the dispute, Mr. Epstein says, you just need 
22 
to go to the police department and make a statement. 
23 
MR. WILLITS: Could I have Exhibit number 2,

please?

Q. 
Let me see if I understand this correctly.

Now, how did you get it? Was it mailed to 
19 
you?

door.

Q. 
And did it have a note on it, please call? 
24 
A. 
Yes.

A. 
It was a -- it was a Palm Beach Police

Department, please call. 
3 
Q. 
Okay. And you didn't call though; you called 
4 
Mr. Epstein first, right? 
5 
A. 
Yeah. Because I was scared. 
6 
Q. 
Why were you scared? 
7 
A. 
Because I thought it was of the incident that

And what was that incident?

You know that incident. 
11

before.

Now, how many months after you left

Mr. Epstein's employment did this occur? 
9 
A. 
I don't have -- I would says, three to four 
10 
months. 
11 
Q. 
I would just ask a favor of you. The court 
12 
reporter needs to see your face so she can understand 
13 
what you're saying. She's looking -- you put your hand 
14 
in front of your mouth. That's all. 
15 
Now, when you worked for Mr. Epstein, did you 
16 
learn that he kept money in that briefcase? 
17 
A. 
Yes. 
18 
Q. 
And, so, when you went to his house on that 
19 
occasion, did you just assume that there would be money 
20 
in the briefcase? 
21 
A. 
Yes. 
22 
Q. 
And -- and did you take money out of that 
23 
briefcase? 
24 
A. 
Yes.

Q. 
Now, is that the only time that you took money

Q.

2 
police, you assumed it had to do with these two 
3 
instances? 
4

15 
involved.

I ask him, what's going on, Jeffrey? What's 
17 
happening? I got this and I thought that this was all 
18 
over. 
19 
No, he says, John, it has nothing to do with 
20 
that money. 
21

Q. 
Well, you left in December of 
, g202, And

before I showed you this document, you said that these

later; is that correct? 
15 
A. 
Apparently, yes. 
16 
Q. 
Well, now after -- after looking at this, sir,

Q. 
Yeah.

A. 
It could be.

than three or four months?

A. 
I don't remember if it was more than three 
25 
months.
