This document is a transcript of an opening statement by Ms. Sternheim in a legal case involving claims against Epstein. Sternheim argues that the claims, unlike those in the September 11th compensation fund, are based on unreliable memories that will be challenged during the trial. She begins to describe the relationship between Epstein and an accuser named Jane, portraying him as a generous benefactor who financially supported Jane's musical education and living expenses in New York City.
