A. I know one of them was the house manager who lived on the property and the other two, I believe, were some type of designers for Mr. Epstein.
Q. After clearing the house and reading the search warrant, what did your team do next?
A. We began the search of the interior of the house.
Q. What, if anything, stands out in your memory from your observation of Jeffrey Epstein's Palm Beach house that day?
A. I do recall being surprised that the computer -- there was a desktop computer that didn't have the computer towers hooked up to them, it was only the monitor and the keyboard. Also, there was numerous amount of photos throughout the house, the cabana, and we found some in the closets, too, of nude females.
Q. You mentioned the computers. Can you describe for us in a little more detail what you noticed about the computers inside Jeffrey Epstein's house on October 20th, 2005?
A. Yes. The monitor and keyboard were normally where you would see a monitor and a keyboard, and the wires came out the back and went down underneath the desk and the hard drive was not there.
Q. What, if any, specific evidence do you remember seizing during the search?
A. Specifically, I remember seizing a phonebook next -- a message phonebook next to the phone in the kitchen. Also, massage tables we found in one of the closets, two massage tables.
