Summary
This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE) featuring the direct examination of a witness named Alessi, likely Juan Alessi. The testimony details the procedure for handling incoming phone calls for Mr. Epstein; specifically, if Epstein was unavailable, Alessi, his wife, or a staff member named Taylor would record the caller's name and number in a message book. Alessi confirms that these message books, both new and old, were stored in a utility closet within his office located off the staff room. The page concludes with prosecutor Ms. Comey introducing Government Exhibit 2.
