This document is an excerpt from the book 'Filthy Rich' detailing a complex legal battle where Jeffrey Epstein sued attorney Bradley Edwards and Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein. Epstein alleged that Rothstein used litigation against him as 'bait' to lure investors into a Ponzi scheme, while also attempting to discredit a victim (L.M.) by claiming she was a prostitute who changed her story after hiring Edwards. Edwards responded with a motion for summary judgment, arguing Epstein's claims were frivolous and noting that Epstein pleaded the Fifth Amendment dozens of times during depositions.
