he lives at 358 El Brillo. Juan said he worked for Mr.
Epstein from January 1991 to until September 2002, as
the house manager. Juan said he was very familiar with
Epstein's schedule and the lay out of the house. I asked
Juan if he took money and a gun from Epstein in the
past weeks and Juan said he did not take the gun but did
take money from Epstein's house. Juan explained
approximately six weeks ago he became very depressed
about his break up with his wife along with a cancerous
medical condition he was fighting. Juan advised he
became suicidal and decided to steal a gun from Mr.
Epstein in order to kill himself. Juan said he knew Mr.
Epstein had a gun in his office because he helped Mr.
Epstein put it there. Juan described the gun as a silver
revolver with a medium barrel that was holstered. Juan
did not know the exact date, but he said it was
approximately six weeks ago at about 0500 hours on a
Sunday morning, he decided to enter Mr. Epstein's
house at 358 El Brillo Avenue, in an attempt to steal the
gun. Juan said he drove his white Caravan and parked it
in the driveway of the house. Juan said he entered the
house through an unlocked sliding glass door located
near Epstein's office. Juan said he entered the office
and attempted to locate the gun. Juan said he searched
the office but could not find the gun. Juan said he then
went into Epstein's briefcase and removed
approximately $1900. in one hundred dollar bills from a
white envelope. Juan said after taking the money he
immediately left the house.
Juan said on Sunday morning, 10/05/03, at
approximately 0500 hours, he decided to return to 358
El Brillo in order to steal money once again from
Epstein. Juan said he once again drove his white
Caravan to the house and parked in the driveway. Juan
entered the house through the sliding glass door and
entered the office. Juan said he opened the briefcase
and removed $5600. in one hundred dollar bills from a
white envelope. Juan said he left through the same
glass door and drove away. Juan said he believed he
wore a creme colored loafers, light colored pants, a
short sleeve shirt, and a baseball hat. Juan said he did
not wear gloves on his hands. Juan said he needed the
money to pay for his girlfriends immigration papers.
I asked Juan if he was still suicidal. Juan said he was
not and that he was seeing a psychologist on a weekly
basis. (this was verified by Juan's son, John Alessi) Juan
once again denied taking a gun from Epstein's house.
Juan said he had a talk with Mr. Epstein on 10/12/03,
and they agreed Juan would pay Epstein back for all the
money that was taken.
