Second, the defendant’s behavior in the year leading up to her arrest demonstrates her
sophistication in hiding and her ability to avoid detection. The Court noted as much in denying
bail, and the Renewed Bail Application also does nothing to change that conclusion. (Tr. 87).
Indeed, the defendant’s time in isolation in the year leading up to her arrest makes clear that, even
to the extent she has loved ones and property in this country, she has proven her willingness to cut
herself off entirely from them and her ability to live in hiding. She did so by purchasing a home
using a trust in another name and introducing herself to the real estate agent under an alias, placing
her assets into accounts held under other names, registering cellphones and at least one credit card
under other names, and living in near total isolation away from her loved ones.

The Renewed Bail Application again tries to cast those steps as efforts to avoid the media
frenzy that followed Epstein’s death. (Tr. 44, 56-57). However, as the Court already recognized,
regardless of the defendant’s reasons for taking these steps, that course of conduct clearly
establishes her expertise at remaining hidden and her willingness to cut herself off from her family
and friends in order to avoid detection. (Tr. 87). Rare is the case when a defendant has already
demonstrated an aptitude for assuming another identity and concealing her assets, including when
purchasing property, registering cellphones, and managing finances. Here, the defendant has
indisputably taken all of those steps. She was able to do so because of both her finances and her
willingness to take extreme measures and to experience social isolation away from her loved ones.
