New round of documents from lawsuit connected to Jeffrey Epstein unsealed

New round of documents from lawsuit connected to Jeffrey Epstein unsealed
Some of the documents that were released, uh, involved, uh, depositions that were given by, uh, Jeffrey Epstein's accusers, Jeffrey Epstein's victims. Uh, and they talked about, um, mostly what had been, uh, reported on or rumored about people like Bill Clinton. Uh, these women were asked, um, if they had ever been in *** helicopter with Bill Clinton, uh, they denied that much of the information that we've seen in this document released today. Uh, is stuff that we've already known for the most part, uh, names like former president, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew. Um Even the mention of Michael Jackson came out through *** lawyer several years ago. Uh Today's release, shed some new light on that. Nothing untoward happened with Michael Jackson according to the witness who was testifying, but it is not the explosive release of documents that some people were dissipating. One woman said that she was flying on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, um, from Florida to New York. They had to divert because of bad weather in Atlantic City and they wound up at one of Donald Trump's casinos. But Jeffrey Epstein, according to this woman said, oh, great, we're in Atlantic City. We'll call up Trump and go to the casino. Uh Now it is not clear and this woman was not asked if she actually they met Donald Trump if they met up with him that night. And later in that same testimony, she was asked if she had ever been asked to give *** massage to Donald Trump as she had been doing for Jeffrey Epstein. And she says, no, that was not the case. There was *** great deal of hype, *** great deal of anticipation in this document release. And so far, the word of caution is don't believe the hype.
