Finally. Victim-1 also has identified several other girls she recruited, including at least
one who was a victim and recruiter. We intend to approach additional such victims when the case
is overt, after charging. One of those victims has agreed to speak with us, but we are unlikely to
be able to meet with her for several weeks because she is about to give birth.

Florida Victims
We have also met with and interviewed two primary Florida-based victims, each of
whom has described a generally similar course of abuse. In speaking with them we have focused
on individuals who we believe, based on their own accounts and/or phone records, were contacted
by co-conspirators located in New York in connection with their abuse, i.e., to schedule massages.
Victim-2
Victim-2 was recruited to be a victim when she was approximately 14 years old: she
currently recalls having been 14 when she met Epstein. though she stated in a 2007 FBI interview
that she believed her interactions with him began when she was 15. Victim-2 estimates that she
herself performed more than ten sexualized massages and that she also recruited approximately
20-30 additional girls who were similarly abused by Epstein in Florida.
When Victim-2 first encountered Epstein, she was a high school dropout, living away
from home and supporting herself financially. She recalls being recruited by a young girl at a
party who told her she could make $200 by giving a massage to an older man. Victim-2 agreed to
go to Epstein's residence in Palm Beach, and she ultimately participated in at least ten massages,
which became increasingly sexual over time. She recalled that Epstein would instruct her to pinch
his nipples while he masturbated, and that she was often instructed to take her clothes off and
perform the massage while nude. During the massages, Epstein would use a vibrating massager
on her vagina, and during at least one incident he put his hand on her genitals. She recounted that
Epstein would frequently push things further to see how far he could go.
