1 answers, you know, who is involved, which girls are
2 involved, what are their names, what's -- what's going
3 on? And so Brunel's deposition is set and then he -- he
4 finagles out of it, too. I don't recall exactly what
5 his excuse was, but, you know, evaded the deposition and
6 in fact, later information came to light he was hiding
7 out in the mansion of Epstein while he's claiming he's
8 unavailable for deposition.
9 So -- so this pattern of Mr. Dershowitz, you
10 know, there were three attempts to obtain information
11 from him, if that's all I had, I guess that would have
12 been one thing. But what I had was a pattern of people
13 who were implicated in the sex trafficking ring evading
14 questions, you know, quite in violation of court orders
15 and depositions and things -- I shouldn't say court
16 orders -- in violation of the deposition notices that
17 were being sent and agreements being made through
18 counsel.
19 And then in addition to that, I had this, so
20 why -- why would you think that there's this sex
21 trafficking, you know, ring going on? It sounds kind of
22 farfetched. Well, one of the things that I had
23 available to me on December 30th was a photograph that
24 was widely available on the Internet, and that
25 photograph depicted three people.
