|
| 12 |

I've got it written down. You talked about the room where Jeffrey had the pornographic photographs. Did you actually see that room on the occasion of your first visit there? So, he was gone and then I had this boyfriend who was like my school friend

a couple of weeks, maybe a week, I had quit Mar-a-Lago and I was working for Jeffrey

full time. JS:

Ok, let's talk about your job at Mar-a-Lago, if we could. You said that your Dad was
|
| 7 |

working there. What was his position at Mar-a-Lago? JS: And is he still living here in South Florida now?

it's a street that is lined with large royal palm trees, and I'm wondering if this was an

In a roundabout way, yes. In so many ways, Jeffrey really really had to train me, and that

was why Ghistaine said that she and Jettrey enjoyed me so much was because they never

Jeffrey Epstein, a successful businessman and noted philanthropist with no prior criminal
|
| 3 |
+
record, has been investigated for potential violations of 18 U.S.C. §$ 1591, 2422(b) and 2423(b). Since the limited review conducted by CEOS, two Supreme Court decisions one authored by
|
| 4 |

Justice Scalia and the other by Justice Thomas--have revitalized the bedrock principles that
|
| 5 |

federal criminal statutes must be narrowly construed, that they may not be stretched to federalize

We have reviewed every reported case under 18 U.S.C. §§ 1591, 2422(b), and 2423(b),

| 4 |

and cannot find a single one that resulted in a conviction on facts akin to the ones here. In some

respects, it is not surprising that no precedent supports federal prosecution of a man who engaged

in consensual conduct, in his home, that amounts to solicitation under State law. After all,

Slip op. at 6. In Cuellar, the Court examined the link between the money-laundering statute's mens rea
