fully nude when the defendant walked into the massage room. (Id.). The defendant told Carolyn that she had a nice body and touched Carolyn’s breasts. (Id.).
At some point, Epstein asked Carolyn if she had any young friends she could bring for massages. (PSR ¶ 71). Carolyn ended up bringing multiple girls to massage Epstein, including multiple minors. (Id.). When Carolyn brought girls to massage Epstein, both the girl and Carolyn would be paid hundreds of dollars in cash. (Id.). During those massages, Epstein masturbated and touched Carolyn’s and her friend’s breasts and buttocks. (Id.).
6. Sexual Abuse of Melissa
One of the minor girls Carolyn brought to provide paid sexualized massages to Epstein was named Melissa. (PSR ¶ 80). Melissa was just 16 years old when she went with Carolyn to Epstein’s Palm Beach residence. (Id.). Melissa went to Epstein’s residence to provide Epstein with massages on multiple occasions when she was under the age of 18. (Id.). When Melissa and Carolyn went to the Palm Beach house, they remained in the home for about an hour and then returned with hundreds of dollars in cash. (Id.). An entry entitled “Melissa’s cell (Carolyn’s friend),” as well as multiple entries with Carolyn’s full name and an entry entitled “Virginia (parents)” were listed in the defendant and Epstein’s black address book under the heading “Massage – Florida.” (Id.; PSR ¶ 57). Thus, as a direct result of the pyramid scheme that began with Virginia and continued with Carolyn, Melissa suffered repeated sexual abuse.
