This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE) dated August 10, 2022, documenting the cross-examination of witness A. Farmer by Ms. Menninger. The questioning focuses on a prior statement Farmer made to government agents on May 9, 2020, regarding a massage involving Epstein; the defense attempts to establish that Farmer previously characterized the event as 'awkward and uncomfortable' but 'not explicitly sexual,' which the witness disputes as being the agents' notes rather than her exact words. The witness confirms she felt Epstein could see her during the massage.

"Q. And what you told the agents and the government in May of 2020 is that the body massage was awkward and uncomfortable, but not explicitly sexual; correct?"Source
"A. I don't believe those are my words; I think that's what's noted here. It says no touching of nipples, genitals, etc., and I did clarify that, but that did not happen."Source
"Q. You talked about during this massage you had a sense that Epstein would be able to see you; correct? A. Correct."Source
