Summary

This document is a page from the cross-examination of Visoski (likely pilot David Visoski) during the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The testimony establishes the timeline of Epstein's purchase of the ranch in the mid-1990s and the subsequent construction of the main house, which was completed around 2000. Visoski describes the living arrangements at 'Ranch Central,' noting that guests arriving by aircraft stayed in the lodge, while he initially stayed in bunkhouse rooms before building his own home on the property.

LBUCmax3 Visoski - cross
1 recollection is that Epstein bought the ranch I think sometime
2 in the mid 1990s; is that right?
3 A. That's correct.
4 Q. And when he first bought the property, that large main
5 house that we saw pictures of hadn't been built yet right?
6 A. That's correct.
7 Q. That house was under construction for several years; right?
8 A. That's correct.
9 Q. I think you said it was finished towards the end of the
10 '90s, 2000?
11 A. Correct.
12 Q. So you stayed when you went to the ranch in the mid to late
13 '90s -- well, where did you stay?
14 A. In the early part of the mid '90s, I stayed at the Ranch
15 Central in the bunkhouse rooms, and then later on I built a
16 home on the ranch.
17 Q. I'll ask you about that home in a bit. But for the first
18 part, you stayed in Ranch Central; right?
19 A. Ranch Central, correct.
20 Q. And the ranch hands and the property manager stayed there,
21 as well?
22 A. They stayed in the other buildings associated with Ranch
23 Central, but mostly the Ranch Central lodge or bedrooms were
24 for guests that were on the aircraft. But everybody stayed,
25 really, at Ranch Central, like you said, employees or workers
