Q 
Did you attempt to interview her? 
She's 
going to be coming in, and she is not a minor 
anymore, so what is her full name? 
A 
Her name is 
and I did 
attempt to interview 
, and 
was 
interviewed by Palm Beach Police Department and 
because of the statements she provided to the 
police department, she felt as if she needed a 
lawyer. So when I attempted to interview her, we 
ended up going through her lawyer. 
Q 
And just so the grand jury has a little 
bit of background, the interview with the Palm 
Beach Police Department was quite some time ago? 
A 
Yes, it was, in the fall of '05. 
Q 
And when Ms. 
started that 
conversation with the police, she was very 
forthcoming? 
A 
Yes, she was. 
Q 
Fully cooperative? 
A 
Yes. 
Q 
And what happened in the middle of that 
interview with the police? 
A 
The police just let 
know that she 
could be charged because 
brought some of the 
girls to Mr. Epstein and the police -- she was

very cooperative, but the police at that point had 
to let 
know that what she had done that she 
could be facing charges. 
Q 
And that was after they had told her 
earlier that she didn't need an attorney present, 
correct? 
A 
Exactly. 
Q 
Okay. So this happens to her with the 
Palm Beach Police Department and did the Palm 
Beach Police actually present or propose charging 
A 
They did get a probable cause affidavit 
against 
Q 
And is that why Ms. 
and her 
attorney were concerned about her testimony here? 
A 
Yes. 
Q 
Now was a subpoena issued for Ms. 
on behalf of this grand jury? 
A 
Yes, it was. 
Q 
And before Ms. 
would comply with 
that, did she -- did her attorney request some 
sort of order? 
A 
Yes. 
Q 
And what did he ask for? 
A 
He asked for immunity for

Q 
And let me show you the order, that is a 
sealed order in these grand jury proceedings. 
Now 
the immunity that has been provided for Ms. 
keeps her statements that are made here from being 
used against her? 
A 
Yes, it does. 
Q 
It doesn't -- if she commits perjury and 
she lies to the grand jury, can she still be 
charged? 
A 
Yes, she can. 
Q 
Okay. Could you read that? 
I know it 
is only two pages. 
A 
Sealed order, on application of the 
United States Attorneys for the Southern District 
of Florida and it appearing to the satisfaction of 
the court that 
has been called to 
testify and to provide other information before 
the United States District Court, the Southern 
District of Florida, including a grand jury 
impaneled therein. 
And number two, that in a judgment of 
the said United States Attorneys, 
has

incrimination.
