What did Jeffrey Epstein say in his deposition?

In his 2010 civil depositiontaken in connection with a lawsuit brought by victims Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell had assistedJeffrey Epstein invoked the Fifth Amendment hundreds of times. He declined to answer questions about his relationship with Ghislaine Maxwell, the names of women who visited his properties, specific victims’ accounts, and his financial arrangements. The transcript’s near-total refusal to engage substantively created a legal record that was used in subsequent litigation, including the Maxwell trial, where prosecutors cited his silence as consistent with consciousness of guilt.
