What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
In this episode, we're going to continue talking about Virginia Roberts and her response to Glenn Maxwell and Maxwell's request for a summary judgment.
Nine.
It is an undisputed fact that defendant was unable to garner a single witness throughout discovery who can testify that she did not act as the procurer of underage girls and young women for Jeffrey Epstein.
Defendant has not been able to procure a single witness, not one to testify that defendant did not procure girls for sex with Epstein or participate in the sex.
Even one of her own witnesses, Tony Figueroa, testified that she both procured girls and participated in the sex.
Another one of the defendant's witnesses, Miss Roberts's mother, named defendant as miss Roberts new Mama.
Indeed, those are new her well who spent considerable time with her in Epstein's shared household, like Juanna Lessi, alfred Or Rodriguez, and Johanna Schuberg, have testified that she was Epstein's procurus.
Others who live with her Jeffrey Epstein Nadiam Marsenkova and Sarah Kellen invoked the Fifth Amendment so as to not answer questions on the same No one testified to the contrary.
B Documentary evidence also shows that defendant traffic Miss Roberts and procured her for sex with the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein while she was underage.
One the flight logs, Defendant has never offered a legal explanation for what she was doing with and why she was traveling with a minor child on twenty one flights while she was a child, including six international flights aboard a convicted pedophiles private jet all over the world.
Her motion for some rejudgment, as well as previous briefing papers, are absolutely silent on those damning documents two, the photographs.
Throughout the mountain of briefing, and even in her own deposition testimony, defendant never offered an explanation regarding Miss Roberts photographs of her defendant and Epstein.
She never offered a legal explanation for why Prince Andrew was photographed with his hand around Miss Roberts bare waste while she was a minor child while posing with defendant inside Defendant's house in London.
This particular photograph corroborates Miss Roberts's claims, and there is no other reasonable explanation why an American child should be in the company of adults not her kin, in the London house owned by the girlfriend of a now convicted sex offender.
Miss Roberts also produced pictures of herself taken when she was in New York with defendant and Epstein and from a trip to Europe with defendant and Epstein.
And Miss Roberts has produced a number of pictures of herself taken at Zoro Ranch, Epstein's New Mexico ranch, two of which are below.
Finally, among other nude photos, which included full nudes of defendant, Miss Roberts produced images of few at the Palm Beach police confiscated during the execution of the warrant, including one photograph revealing the bare bottom of a girl who appears to be pre phebescent.
Miss Roberts we will only submit in its redacted form the victim identification letter.
In two thousand and eight, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida identified Miss Roberts as a protected victim of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse.
The US Attorney mailed Miss Roberts a notice of her rights as a crime victim under the CVRA four New York Presbyterian Hospital Records.
Miss Roberts has provided extensive medical records in this case, including medical records from the time when defendant was sexually abusing and trafficking her.
Miss Roberts produced records supporting her claim of being sexually abused in New York, resulting in both the defendant and Epstein taking plaintiff to New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York while she was a miner.
The dates on the hospital records show she was seventeen years old five Judith Lightfoot psychological records.
As the Court is aware, defendant propounded wildly overbroad requests for production concerning the past eighteen years Amiss Robert's medical history.
The defendant repeatedly argued to the court that it was essential to procure every page of those records.
In a fanfare of unnecessary motion practice CEEEG Defendant's motion to compel Defendant's motion for sanctions at ten.
Miss Maxwell has been severely prejudiced by Plaintiff's failure to provide the required identifying information and documents from her health care providers.
Miss Roberts and her counsel took on the considerable burden and significant expense of retrieving and producing over two hundred and fifty pages of medical records from over twenty providers spanning two continents and nearly two decades.
Now that those records have been collected, defendant sixty motion makes no reference to a single medical record produced by Miss Roberts, nor a single provider, nor a single treatment, nor a single medication prescribed after Defendant's repeated motion practice stressing the essentiality of these records.
This may surprise the court, but not Miss Roberts.
Defendant's request on earth documents that are highly unfavorable to defendant that corroborate Miss Roberts's claims against her.
Years before this cause of action arose, Miss Roberts sought counseling from a psychologist for the trauma she continued to experience after being abused by defendant and Epstein.
A twenty eleven psychological treatment record written by her treating psychologist unambiguously describes defendant as Miss roberts abuser.
Miss Roberts was approached by Glenn Maxwell, who said she could help her get a job as a massage therapist.
Seem respectable, was shown how to massage, etc.
Groff Epstein told to undress and perform s actual acts on person.
Miss Maxwell promised her two hundred bucks after a job.
Therefore, years after defendant defamed her, Miss Roberts confided in her treating psychologists that Maxwell recruited her for sex with Epstein.
Number six message pads.
Detective Rickerry, the lead investigator of the criminal investigation into Epstein and his associate's crime sex, recovered carbon copies of handwritten messages taken by various staff, including defendant, at Epstein's Palm Beach residence.
These were collected both from trash pulls from the residence and during the execution of the search warrant, where the pads were found laying out in the open in the residence.
The search warrant was executed in two thousand and five, and the message pads collected include messages recorded in two thousand and four and two thousand and five.
Numerous witnesses have described these copies of collected messages accurately reflect those taken by various staff at the plom Beach epstein mansion between two thousand and four and two thousand and five.
The messages raise a question of fact as to Maxwell's involvement in the sexual abuse of minors and are relevant to refute Maxwell's denial of any involvement with Epstein during relevant time periods and accordingly, her denial of knowledge of certain events.
While there were hundreds of these messages recovered during the investigation, this small sample demonstrates the undeniable reality that there exists a genuine issue of material fact with respect to defendant's involvement in and knowledge of the activities described by Roberts, which Maxwell has said were untrue and obvious lies.
This sample reveals that Maxwell GM took messages at the residence, including from underage girls who were calling to schedule a time to come over to see Epstein.
This demonstrates that Maxwell was at Epstein's Palm Beach mansion in two thousand and four in two thousand and five, incidentally, a time period she is denied being around the house in her deposition see Roberts zero zero one four one two zero zero one four three five zero zero one four four to nine.
The messages also reveal that multiple girls were leaving messages that were being taken and memorialized and left out in the open for anyone to see.
Certain messages also make clear that a number of these girls were in school.
In addition to taking messages, herself and the staff working under her direction taking these relevant messages, staff employees were taking and leaving messages for the defendant.
This is evidence that Maxwell was in the house at relevant times, including times that she has now testified under oath that she was not there.
Other messages demonstrate Epstein and Maxwell's friends, including Jean Luke Brunel, leaving messages relating to underage females.
Following her descriptions of a sampling of message pads that create a genuine dispute of material facts, one message pad reflects redacted, who is identified in the Palm Beach police report as a miner, contacting Jeffrey Epstein for work, explaining that she does not have any money.
The term work was often used by members of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual trafficking ring to refer to sexual massages see Roberts at zero five six six zero.
She stated she was called by Sarah for her return to work for Epstein redacted stated work is the term used by Sarah to provide the massage and underwear.
Roberts zero zero one four six two July fifth, No Year to Jae from redacted, I need work.
I mean I don't have money.
Do you have some work for me?
Other message pads reflect redacted, who is a miner, calling and leaving a message at the Palm Beach mansion that she has recruited another girl for Jeffrey Epstein.
The second massage demonstrates that Jeffrey Epstein require different girls to be scheduled every day of the week.
The third shows an offer to have two minor girls come to the home at the same time to provide sexual massages.
These type of massages indicate the lack of secrecy of the fact that multiple young females were visiting every day, and at least raises a question of fact whether Maxwell was knowledgeable and involved as Roberts is said, or whether Roberts was lying and Maxwell was not at all involved or aware of this activity, as defendant would attempt to have the world believe.
Roberts zero zero one four two eight updated.
Jeffrey from redacted has girl for tonight.
Roberts zero zero one four three two seven nine four.
Mister Epstein from redacted or redacted is available on Tuesday, no one for tomorrow.
Mister Epstein from redacted me and redacted can come tomorrow and time or redacted alone.
Roberts zero zero one four five to two undated.
Jeffrey from redacted has a girl for tonight.
Other message pads demonstrate that there was a pattern and practice of using young females to recruit additional females to provide sexual massages on a daily basis.
Roberts zero zero one four one three.
Jaye from n redacted hasn't confirmed redacted for eleven yet, so she is keeping redacted on hold in case redacted doesn't call back.
Roberts zero zero one four four eight eight twenty zero five.
Jaye from redacted redacted confirmed at four pm, who is scheduled for the morning.
I believe redacted wants to work.
This message pad reflects that a friend of Jeffrey Epstein is sending him a sixteen year old Russian girl for purposes of sex.
Roberts zero zero one five six three six one oh five.
For Jeffrey from Jean Luke, he has a teacher for you.
To teach you how to speak Russian.
She is two times eight years old and not blonde.
Lessons are free and you can have your first today if you call.
This message pad directly refutes Maxwell's sworn testimony that she was not present during the year two thousand and five at Jeffrey Epstein's pom Beach mansion because this show's were redacted, leaving a message for Jeffrey at the pom Beach home that she was going to work out with the defendant on September tenth, two thousand and five.
The police were only able to retrieve a fraction of these message pads during their trash pull, but even in the few they recovered, it shows Maxwell was regularly at the pom Beach home during the time period she claimed she was not.
To the contrary, she was both sending and receiving messages like this one reflect her presence at the mansion Roberts zero zero one four one two nine, ten oh five during the year Maxwell says she was never around Jaye from redacted.
I went to Sarah and made her water bottle and I went to work out with GM.
These message pads further corroborate that defendant line in her testimony, and she was in fact in regular contact with Jeffrey Epstein during the years two thousand and four and two thousand and five.
For example, the message from Larry demonstrates that defendant is at the Palm Beach mansion so frequently that people, including Epstein's main pilot Larry Vesoski, are leaving messages for Maxwell at the pom Beach House.
Roberts zero zero one four three five seven twenty five oh four Mister Epstein from Miss Maxwell, tell him to call me.
Roberts zero zero one four four nine eight twenty two oh five.
Jaye from GM Roberts zero zero one four five three for twenty five oh four for Miss Maxwell from Larry, returning your call.
This message pad shows that defendant was clearly actively involved in Jeffrey Epstein's life and the activities at his Palm Beach mansion.
Roberts zero zero one four five to four updated Jeffrey from Glaine.
Would be helpful to have redacted come to Palm Beach today to stay here and help train the new staff with glaane.

Roberts zero zero one four one seven Jeffrey two twenty eight oh five redacted name.
She is wondering if two thirty is okay.
She needs to stay in school.
The message pad reflects a message from redacted, who was under the age of eighteen at the time.
She was going over to Jeffrey Epstein's home to provide sexual massages.
According to the Palm Beach Investigative report, Roberts zero zero one four two three four oh five to Jeffrey Epstein from redacted, it is okay for redacted to stop by and drop something.
The message pads reflect the pattern of underage girls noted by the police.
Redaction of the name on the message pad calling the Palm Beach mansion to leave a message about sending a female over to provide a sexual massage.
Roberts zero zero one four two three eleven eight oh four to mister je redacted from I have a female forum.
Roberts zero zero one four two six one zero nine five Jae to Jaye from redacted, I have a female forum.
This message pad reflects the pattern and practice of having young girls bring other young girls to the house to perform sexual massages.
Indeed they're redacted.
Reflected in this message pad corresponds in name to the redacted that Tony Figaroa testified he initially brought to Jeffrey Epstein's during the time period that the defendant was requesting that Tony find him some young females to bring to Jeffrey Epstein's home see Figueroa at one eighty four and one eighty five.

Ten it is undisputed fact that THE fbi report and the Church ery emails Referenced Miss roberts accounts of sexual activity With Prince andrew that she made in twenty eleven contrary to the defendant's argument That Miss roberts has never made such claim until twenty, fourteen based on the FBI's interview Of Miss roberts in twenty, eleven they wrote a report Reflecting miss roberts claims concerning her sexual encounters With Prince.

Roberts summary judgment on any of the issues advanced by defendant is.
Inappropriate while we discuss the particulars of the individual claim, below the larger picture is important.
Too Miss roberts will prove that trial That epstein and defendant sexually trafficked.
Her and yet When Miss roberts had the courage to come forward and expose what defendant had done to the world in a court pleading trying to Hold epstein.
Accountable defendant responded by calling her a liar in a press release intended for a worldwide.

ARGUMENT a defendant is liable for the publication of the defamatory statement and damages for its.
Publication defendant's lead argument is that when she issued a press release Attacking Miss roberts to members of the, media she somehow was not responsible when the media quickly published her.
Attacks if, accepted this remarkable claim would eviscerate defamation, law as it would permit a defamer to send a defamatory statement to the media and then stand back and watch immune from liability, when as in this, case the defamatory statements are published around the.
World this absurd position is not the, law particularly given that the defendant released the statement to the media asking them to police find attached and quotable statements on behalf Of Glenn maxwell to make her claim seem.
Plausible defend incites older, cases some dating back as far as nineteen oh.
Six this presents a distorted picture of the case law on these, issues as a leading authority on defamation.
Explains with regard to liability for republication by another of statement by, defendant two standards have.
Evolved the older one is that the person making the defamatory statements is liable for a republication only if it occurs with, him is or her express or implied authorization of.
Consent the more modern formulation as responsibility for all republication that can reasonably be, anticipated or that is the natural and probable consequence of the publication sack on Defamation section two dot seven dot two at Two dash one thirteen and Two dash one, fourteen Fourth, edition twenty.
Sixteen in this, case, however the nuances of the applicable legal standards make little, difference because defendants so clearly, authorized indeed, desired and did everything possible to obtain publication of her defamatory statements Attacking Miss roberts.
One Under New york, law defendant is liable for the media's publication of her press.
Release given the obvious purposes of defamation, Law New york law unsurprisingly assigns liability to individuals for the media's publication of press.
Releases, Indeed New york appellate courts have repeatedly held that an individual is liable for media publishing that individual's defamatory press.
Release Ce levy Versus, smith EIGHTEEN Nys dot THREE d four thirty eight four to thirty nine one thirty two a dot d dot THREE sd nine sixty, one nine sixty, two and nine sixty THREE Nyad Second, department twenty.
Fifteen, generally one who makes a defamatory statement is not responsible for its recommunication without his authority or request to another over whom he has no.
Control, here, however the appellan intended and authorized the republication of the allegedly defamatory content of the press releases in the news Articles National Puerto Rican Day Parade Incorporated Versus cost Of Publications.
Incorporated nine FOURTEEN NYS dot TWO d one twenty, one twenty, three seventy nine a dot D dot THREE d five ninety, two five ninety FIVE nyad, One department twenty, ten affirming the refusal to dismiss defamation counts against a defendant who submitted an open letter that was published in a, newspaper and that the defendant paid to have the open letter, published and finding that the defendant authorized the newspaper to recommunicate his.
Statements see Also restatement second Of, Torts section five seventy, six nineteen seventy.
Seven the publication of a libel or slander is a legal cause of any special harm resulting from its repetition by a third, person if the repetition was authorized or intended by the original, defamer or the repetition was reasonably to be.
Expected defendant deliberately sent her defamatory statement to major news media publishers for worldwide.
Circulation because defendant wanted the public at large to Believe Miss roberts was lying about her, Abuse defendant even hired a public relations media specialist to ensure the media would publish her.
Statement her efforts.
Succeeded her public relations agent instructed dozens of media outlets to publish her quotable defamatory, statements and they.
Did despite this deliberate campaign to widely publicize her defamatory, statement defendant now claims any responsibility for the media publishing her press.
Release if we Understand defendant's position, correctly because she somehow lacked control over what major newspapers and other media finally put in their, stories she escapes liability for.
Defamation this nonsensical position would let a de famer send a false defamatory letter to major, media and, then when they published the, accusation escape any.
Liability such an argument is not only an affrontal, logic but is contrary to Prevailing New york case law cited.
Above perhaps even more important in the context of the some rejudgment, motion it would require defendant to convince the jury that she did not authorize or intend for the major media to publish her press.
Release, obviously the disputed facts on this point are, legion and some rejudgment is accordingly.
Inappropriate even the cases defendant sites contradict her.
Argument she first Cites geraci Versus, props in which a defendant sent a letter to The board Of Fire commissioners and years later a newspaper published the.
Letter the court held that the defendant was not liable for the belated publication made years later without his knowledge or Participation idea three.
P.
Forty by, contrast defendant not only authorized the defamatory, statement but paid money to her publicists to convince media outlets to publish it.
Promptly actions taken with both her knowledge and.
Consent defendant statements was thus not published without her authority or request as In, jerachi but by her express authority M buyer express.
Request defendant's.
Publicist testimony and documents produced by defendants publicist unambiguously established that the media published her press release With defendant's authority and buy her.
Request question when you sent that, email were you acting pursuant to Miss maxwell's retention of your?
Services?
Answer, YES i.
Was question the subject line does HAVE, fw which to me indicates it's a.
Forward do you know where the rest of this email chain is?
Answer my understanding of this is it was a holiday in THE, uk but Mister barton was not necessarily accessible at some point in, time so this had to be sent to him originally by Miss, maxwell and because he was, unavailable she forwarded it to me for immediate.
ACTION i therefore, Responded, Okay, Glane i'll go with.
This it is my understanding that this is the your greed statement because the subject of the second one is.
There this is the, statement SO i take that as an instruction to send it out as a positive.
Command this is the.
Statement, similarly another case cited by Defendant davis Versus Costa gavrais involved a libel claim against a book author who wrote an account of the nineteen seventy two military coup In chile years.
Later the plaintiff attempted to ascribe defamation liability to a third party publishing house decision to republish the book in paperback, form and a third party filmmaker who released a movie based on the.
Book the court held that a party who was innocent of all complicity in the publication of a libel cannot be held, accountable but that a deliberate decision to republish or active participation in implementing the republication resurrects the liability five eighty f dot supp ten eighty, two ten ninety FOUR, sdny nineteen eighty.
Four, here defendant made a deliberate decision to publish or press release and actively participated in that.
Process at the very, least the jury must make a determination of whether the defendant was innocent of all complicity for a libelist statement contained in her press.
Release, finally defend In Sites Caradoman First Newsday.
Incorporated four sixteen and DOT e dot two d five fifty, seven nineteen eighty which held that reporters of a series of articles on narcotics trade cannot be held personally liable for injuries arising from its subsequent republication in book form absent a showing that they approved or participated in some other manner in the activities of the third party REPUBLISHER id four sixteen and DOT e dot two d at five point fifty nine and five Sixty, again the injury could reasonably find that defendant both approved of and even participated in the media's publication of her press.
Release, indeed it is hard to understand how any jury could find anything.
Else defendant was obviously active in influencing the media to publish her defamatory press.
Release she both approved of and pushed for the publication of the press.
Release, accordingly she is liable for its.
Publication, therefore disclaiming responsibility for the media's publication of a statement for which she hired a publicist for the purpose of influencing the media to publish that statement is contrary to both prevailing case law and the case is cited by the.
Defendant All, right, folks we're going to wrap up.
There in the next, episode we'll pick up where we left off with the defendant is liable for the media's publication of the defamatory.
Statement all of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the description.
