4/15/2019 Case 1:19-cv-033 FP" Bstwiers tes stilfaen OFT /Arsteip Aye 3 of 4 Dozens of women alleged that Epstein molested and raped them when they were underaged using a sophisticated human trafficking network. A civil trial is scheduled to begin on Tuesday in Palm Beach County that may finally let these women tell their stories in court. Behind the scenes: While he was allegedly raping teenage girls, Epstein cultivated cozy relationships with America's elites. e Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's plane, nicknamed the "Lolita Express," numerous times, according to flight logs. e And Donald Trump, ina profile with New York magazine written several years before the police wom caught up with Epstein, praised his friend as a "terrific guy.” "It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do," Trump said of Epstein, "and many of them are on the younger side." ¢ Dershowitz was also friendly with Epstein before the broader public knew he was a pedophile. Dershowitz confirmed to me that he received a massage at Epstein's Palm Beach home, adding that the woman who provided it was of legal age. e "What happened was I, um, he lent us, this was well before any of this thing came out, he lent us his house once. And I was there, my grandchildren were there, my daughter was there, and we all got massages.” e "And, um, it was therapeutic. I had a therapeutic massage with an old old Russian, but I never never ... and that was part of when we had his house for about a week during I think it was Christmas vacation." e "Believe me, if I had known that anything improper had ever taken place in that house, I never would have allowed my children, my grandchildren, my wife, my daughter-in-law, my son, to have spent time there. I can tell you categorically there were no inappropriate pictures, no inappropriate anythings. It was like any other house." One of Epstein's accusers, [REDACTED], has claimed Dershowitz had sex with her when she was underage. Dershowitz has denied the allegation and told the Miami Herald "the story was 100 percent flatly categorically made-up" so "she could get money.” Go deeper: Trump defender Dershowitz shunned by Martha's Vineyard V https:/Awww.axios.com/alan-dershowitz-jeffrey-epstein-legal-advice-1a13ad59-a718-46c9-981 3-11231604a387.html 2/3 HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017769
