This document contains pages 114-117 of a deposition transcript, likely of Scott Rothstein. The witness admits to running a Ponzi scheme where he sold fake legal settlements to investors. He utilized legitimate legal cases involving Jeffrey Epstein (specifically cases involving underage girls) as 'props' to pitch to investors, making up fictitious details about settlements. He states he did not care about the background of the victims (whether they were underage or had histories of prostitution) because the settlements were fake. He also implicates Russell Adler as a co-conspirator who provided details about plaintiffs traveling on Epstein's plane.
