Summary

This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 22-1426) dated June 29, 2023, in which a judge is ruling on objections to a report (likely a Presentence Investigation Report). The judge overrules the defendant's objections, citing credible testimony from witnesses Annie, Jane, Kate, and Mr. Alessi to establish that the defendant personally recruited Virginia (a minor) for sexualized massages with Epstein. The ruling also affirms that the defendant used monetary incentives to have Virginia recruit 14-year-old Carolyn, who subsequently witnessed sexual acts at Epstein's residence.

1 objection is overruled. Annie testified to this fact at trial,
2 and I credit this testimony.
3 Paragraph 5 -- sorry -- did it again. 55, defendant

5 objections. The record supports that the defendant personally
6 recruited Virginia to provide Epstein with sexualized massages
7 when she was a minor. Jane and Kate's testimony established
8 that the defendant was aware that the massages were sexualized.
9 I credit Mr. Alessi's testimony that the defendant approached
10 Virginia, and that Virginia visited the residence -- approached
11 Virginia for the first time, and that Virginia visited the
12 residence later that day. Flight records and credible witness
13 testimony established that this meeting occurred before
14 Virginia was 18. In addition, when Virginia brought Carolyn to
15 the residence, the defendant greeted them and instructed
16 Virginia to show Carolyn -- quoting from the trial record --
17 "what to do." Carolyn then witnessed Virginia give Epstein a
18 sexualized massage involving sexual intercourse. Finally, as I

23 Paragraph 58, the defendant objects to the assertion
24 that Carolyn was 14 years old when Virginia brought her to
25 Epstein's residence, claiming that Carolyn's recollection is
