Summary
This document is a legal affidavit signed by attorney Brad Edwards on April 23, 2010, in support of obtaining a specific tape recording as evidence for a civil trial involving Jane Doe and Jeffrey Epstein. Edwards describes negotiations with Anne B. Carroll (representing the Daily News) and argues the tape is critical to prove Epstein's perjury and lack of remorse, noting that Epstein otherwise only pleads the Fifth Amendment. The document also mentions a 'Mr. Rush' who allegedly risked his job by disclosing the tape.

Jane Doe nor any of the other plaintiffs have been able to obtain even a single word of information from Epstein about his abuse of minor girls.
25. I made a good faith, albeit unsuccessful, effort to resolve this matter with Anne B. Carroll, representing the Daily News in order to avoid any court intervention. I explained that we needed this tape for several reasons, including those cited by her in her pleading. The tape is detrimental to Epstein’s personal complaint against [REDACTED] and me; the tape is evidence of perjury committed by Epstein; the tape is the Best Evidence of his lack of remorse for his actions and will be presented in the punitive damages phase of the civil trials against him; and, perhaps most important, the tape is the only way that the jury considering Jane Doe’s case will be able to hear Epstein’s voice and own statements about his abuse of Jane Doe and other minor girls. Without the tape, the jury will not have the opportunity to hear Epstein give any substantive information about Jane Doe’s complaint. Indeed, they will not have the opportunity to even hear Epstein’s voice utter any substantive words other than (in essence) “I take the Fifth.” As part of our discussion, Ms. Carroll told me that it was a “stupid move” for Mr. Rush to play the tape or disclose the tape to other people as he likely waived any privilege and that, as a result of disclosing the tape, he was at risk of losing his job. I responded that it did not seem fair that Mr. Rush lose his job or be punished in any way, but that I had an absolute duty to represent my client and that I would be failing in that duty if I did not pursue this critical piece of evidence.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NAUGHT.
