And I was scared to death that he was gonna come back or there was gonna be another knock on the door and it was going to get worse, but it didn't that night.
I just, like you said, got on the boat, went back to the photo shoot, did my job, flew back to New York City.
Yeah, and this is the part of the story I really like people to understand about Epstein and his world.
You're not getting away from his world.
So once you've been abused by him, and I actually saw someone on the island that day, so I was kind of in and wasn't getting away.
I didn't know that at the time, but the secretaries that worked for him
would call me profusely.
They would call me every single day saying, Jeffrey really liked you.
He thought you were powerful.
He thought you were incredible.
All these compliments to get me to go back and meet with him at his Upper East Side home.
And I just refused every single day.
It went on for months and they were basically harassing me.
And one day Jeffrey called me and he just said to me, Lisa, I remember what you said on the island that your dream was to be a foreign model.
And I know Katie Ford and she's a good friend of mine.
And I would love to send you over there.
He told her about you and you know, you just need to go meet with her.
And I was like thinking, okay, he's not a bad guy.
He wants to help me out.
He listened to me.
