MAXWELL WSTA - CHILD PROSTITUTION Synopsis: To set leads for captioned investigation. Details: On 07/24/2006 the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Palm Beach County Resident Agency (PBCRA), began investigating Jeffrey Epstein, a part-time resident of Palm Beach, along with his personal assistants, and Ghislaine Maxwell. PBCRA obtained information from the City of Palm Beach Police Department (PBPD) that a fourteen- year-old girl who lives in Loxahatchee, Florida, in the Southern District of Florida, and who attended School, provided Epstein "sexual massages" . The fourteen-year- old girl informed PBPD that she had been paid $300.00 by Jeffrey Epstein to perform a "sexual massage", which entailed providing a massage to Epstein while he was naked and the fourteen-year-old was wearing only her thong panties. During the massage, Epstein masturbated himself and touched the fourteen-year-old's vagina over her thong panties with a vibrator/massager. Following the receipt of the case files from the PBPD, PBCRA began interviewing a series of girls, ranging in age from fourteen through mid to early twenties, who reported a similar series of events. In particular, the girls described how contact was made via telephone, primarily with , Epstein's assistant, to arrange times for the girls to "work" at Epstein's home in Palm Beach. The girls would travel to Epstein's residence, usually in the company of another girl. The girls would enter Epstein's home via the kitchen, where they would be met by Epstein and/or . The girls would be escorted up to Epstein's bedroom where a massage table was accessible. The girls were told to undress - some undressed only partially and some undressed completely.

Re: 31E-MM-NEW, 01/14/2019 dressed, usually wearing only a towel. He would get onto the massage table face down. While lying face down, Epstein instructed the girl how to massage him. After a period of time when the girl massaged Epstein's back, he would turn over and lie face up. While lying face up, Epstein would continue to instruct the girl on how to conduct the massage. Epstein also would masturbate himself and, occasionally, manually fondle the vaginal area of the girl - sometimes over the panties, sometimes under the panties, and sometimes penetrating the girl's vagina. On most instances, Epstein also used a vibrator or massager on the girl's vaginal area, again sometimes over the panties and sometimes under the panties. When Epstein ejaculated, the "massage" was over and the girl was instructed to get dressed and to return to the downstairs area of the residence. The girls received between $200 and $300 for the sexual massages. In addition to these sexual massages, some of the girls were paid additional sums to perform more sexual activity, for example, engaging in sexual activity with another female Epstein employee, , while Epstein watched. During the course of PBPD's investigation, a search warrant for Epstein's home was obtained and executed. Many of Epstein's belongings were removed from the home prior to the execution of the search warrant - for example, the computer processing units (CPUs) were removed from the house but the computer screens, keyboards, cords, etc. were left behind. The missing CPU's were never recovered. During the search, several telephone message pads were recovered. These message pads show messages taken from several of the girls who were interviewed and admitted to engaging in sexual massages or other sexual activity with Epstein. The messages contained text such as "I have a female for him" and "has girl for tonight." Some of the messages from the girls were addressed to Epstein and others were addressed to , Epstein's assistant. Additional messages recovered during the search contained text confirming appointment times. During the PBCRA's investigation, the girls related that would contact the girls while and Epstein were still in New York or elsewhere, in order to arrange "massage" times upon his arrival in Palm Beach. The PBCRA's investigation has collected the flight manifest for Epstein's two private planes during the period of January 2004 through December 2005 as well as cellular phone records for , Epstein, and the majority of girls. The investigation revealed that prior to the flights to Palm Beach, would contact some of the girls via cell phone. The massage pads show evidence that the girls responded to those telephone calls and in some instances appointment confirmations were left for Epstein.
