1 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I didn't -- I
2 didn't -- I didn't -- I'm not sure even what I
3 thought. I was like, that's weird.
4 TODD BLANCHE: -- so after he -- after you
5 find out about it, what happens with your
6 relationship with him?
7 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I asked him. I asked
8 him what was going on
9 TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
10 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- and he said, I --
11 I -- not to worry. Nothing, nothing, taking care.
12 Don't worry about it (indiscernible) and then it all
13 went quiet. I didn't -- he didn't say, he didn't
14 share. I wasn't part of it at all. I was off with
15 Ted and I really just --
16 TODD BLANCHE: Did he tell you -- well,
17 why don't we come back to more specifics around that
18 time period in a few minutes --
19 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Okay.
20 TODD BLANCHE: -- I want to just finish
21 this opening part.
22 So that case goes on, ultimately it ends.
23 What -- what -- what was your relationship like with
24 him during that case, when he goes, you know, when
25 he -- when he was sentenced.
Page 47
1 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He asked -- he -- he
2 he told me, he said, "Listen. I'm going to jail."
3 I was like, "Okay." And he goes, "I would like you
4 to stay on board to manage the properties, the
5 animals, this and that, and just stay put and I'll
6 continue to pay you. In case there's any emergency,
7 I don't trust anyone." And I was like, "Okay."
8 TODD BLANCHE: Well, when you said
9 continue to pay, had he con--- has he --
10 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He had never stopped
11 paying me.
12 TODD BLANCHE: He never stopped paying
13 you. So even when your relationship changes, you're
14 getting -- does the amount increase from the $25,000
15 or so a year from the beginning? Like how much are
16 you getting paid yearly?
17 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I think it ended -- at
18 the time, well, we had different payment structures
19 and I'm happy to explain how that was, but I think
20 salary wise, if I'm right, it ended at around a
21 quarter of a million a year.
22 TODD BLANCHE: How much?
23 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Quarter of a million.
24 $250,000.
25 TODD BLANCHE: And when -- and when did it
Page 48
1 end? When was that that it stopped?
2 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: 2008, or '09.
3 TODD BLANCHE: So --
4 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: '09. When did he come
5 out of jail? Whenever he came out of jail.
6 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So, and over the
7 years, it increased from what you said was you
8 thought about $25,000 to $250,000. That's between
9 like '90, early '90s until 2009 or '10, whenever he
10 stopped; is that right?
11 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes -- yes.
12 TODD BLANCHE: And how were you paid?
13 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: W2.
14 TODD BLANCHE: W2 from which -- from what
15 company? Or do you --
16 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He, like I -- he just
17 moved me around over to this company, that, I didn't
18 care --
19 TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
20 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- and I didn't care
21 and I didn't think that -- I didn't understand any
22 rhyme or reason, it doesn't, I just, you know,
23 whatever --
24 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So --
25 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- so maybe --
Page 49
1 TODD BLANCHE: -- so when he's going to go
2 to jail, he says, "Can you stay around and manage
3 everything."
4 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yeah.
5 TODD BLANCHE: And do you do that?
6 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I do.
7 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. And then -- and then
8 we'll come back to that.
9 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Well, not manage
10 everything, no. I mean there are other people at
11 this point. My specific role then was very, very
12 diminished.
13 TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
14 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I reviewed the bill
15 structure that came from the constructions, that were
16 still made, the island --
17 TODD BLANCHE: Okay.
18 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- and wherever else I
19 was going, Paris at this point, because I speak
20 French, I'm fluent in French.
21 And also my relationship with the French
22 decorator was critical to him. And in the French
23 component part of -- of that aspect, that was really
24 vital and so you would have had to find someone who
25 was -- well, actually, and the Spanish trilingual,
